No wonder Croatia is "all the rage". On our trip up the Dalmatian coach, I couldn't help but notice how clean it was. Even the leaves feared falling from the trees! ;)

Maybe there's a vacation inside that Pot O' Gold next year. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

If you haven't, you have to go to Arizona's Paria Canyon to check out 'The WAVE' sandstone of Coyote Buttes. There's simply nothing else like it.

Looking to breathe in the fresh mountain air, admire jaw-dropping views, and savor the local cuisine? On Collette's "Peaks of Europe" tour, enjoy a 2-night stay in Grindelwald, Switzerland, nestled at the base of the Eiger. I've used Collette for all of my group trips and they do an excellent job.

Don’t wait until Octoberfest to visit the state of Bavaria in Germany. It's beautiful anytime of the year.
