Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Day 1 The famous Gettysburg Pennsylvania I will say when we were planning this trip, I was kinda dreading it. Let’s be honest, I am not into history and the wars and all of that. It just doesn’t interest me at all. My wife wanted to take her dad for Father’s Day so […]

Baltimore, Maryland

St. Kitts

St. Kitts We had an independent excursion booked this day as well. We booked through Pereira Tours which Liz was GREAT. I cannot say enough good things about her.
