Before starting this site, I scoured the internet for blogs I related with and what I found was most adventure travel blogs were written by and for 20-somethings. There were sites for retirees too, but those took a slower pace. I wondered, where are the sites for active travelers sandwiched in between those two groups.

But that doesn’t mean we don’t love to travel. We enjoy cruising, luxury getaways, and multi-generational vacations. And, you know what? We like a bit of adventure mixed in with our globetrotting.

Spectacular views of the Chesapeake Bay are just one reason to visit the Havre de Grace Promenade. Any time of day along this waterfront boardwalk you will find mothers pushing little ones in strollers, children gleefully frolicking at the water’s edge, and anglers casting their lines from a fishing pier.
If you are a frequent traveler the process of going through security screening at the airport has probably become fairly routine. But if you are one of the lucky travelers who find SSSS printed on their boarding pass, what has become repetitive can quickly throw a wrench into your travel
