28 Places to See Before You Die

The Smithsonian has a list of 28 Places to See Before You Die. Seems like such a long list when you can really only make it to one place every couple of years. Nevertheless, some day I’d like to be able to look back at this list and say “Success”.

  • CleanWell Hand Sanitizer

    Prior to leaving on our 2009 cruise we decided to pack some travel necessities that would help ensure a clean and healthy trip. One of the products we purchased was the CleanWell hand sanitizer.

    A sleek container and free of toxic chemicals, CleanWell should be part of every traveler’s bag.

    • Leaves hands soft
    • Fresh citrus scent

    • Easy-to-use spray
    • Never tested on animals
    • CleanWell is all natural and non-toxic. It is made from rapidly renewable botanical sources and is part of a sustainable solution

    Cruise Planners

    My wife and I just returned from a very nice cruise to the Bahamas. A more detailed description of the cruise will follow but I just wanted to say thank you to the team at Cruise Planners, who handled everything from booking the cruise, the travel insurance, shore excursions and switching dates multiple times until we were both satisfied that we were booked on a cruise we would enjoy. Clearly, picking the right ship is important, but knowing that you’re working with a team that knows the cruise industry makes the whole process so much easier. If at any point you decide on taking a cruise I highly recommend checking out Cruise Planners. Their contact information is:
