Olympic Screw-ups to Remember

By now you have probably heard about most of the Olympic flops, but I bet you haven’t heard about these… So here we are, freshly returned from the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and we have finally finished downloading the thousands of pictures we took during our stay there.

Zika Prevention for Rio 2016

So here we are, en route to (being en route to being closer to getting to) Rio de Janeiro for the Olympic Games. As we sit on the Delta Sky Club lounge in Atlanta, we wanted to share with you how we made sure to mitigate the risk of contracting Zika while we’re down there. As much as we love supporting Team USA (and Team Argentina and Team Italy for that matter), we don’t want to come back with a nice Zika surprise....

Zambia: Walking with Rhinos

Since our visit to Kruger National Park in South Africa, I had been dead set on seeing rhinos, at least from a shorter distance. It turned out it wasn’t meant to be until we got to Zambia. It is worth noting that in 2010, the population of white rhinos in Zambia was a shocking total of 1. Yes, ONE. Thankfully, the country sprung into action and relocated 4 white rhinos from South Africa to Zambia’s Mosi-oa-Tunya...

United will serve Illy Coffee Onboard

Not that anyone would choose to fly them anyway, not even for their better than average coffee… But hey, I commend United on trying to upgrade from the pretty nasty caffeinating experience travelers have to go through when flying. While I do know that it is a fact that taste buds are affected by pressurization and dry air, as well as noise levels, I also know for a fact that airlines, especially in the US, have never...
