First Day in New York City

We each got a New York Citypass, which ended up saving us a lot of money (Citypass gets you into the Empire State Building observation deck, the Guggenheim, MOMA, Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Natural History Museum, and a Circle Line Harbor Cruise - we did all but the Guggenheim). It's also supposed to save you time not having to wait in line, but we only found this true at MOMA (which was nice to avoid the long line outside on a rainy morning).

Save a Bundle in New York CIty

With ticket prices to individual museums in New York City running a bit steep, check out City Pass. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has just been added to the line-up to sweeten the offer.

Burnout goes to Chicago

Yes, I'm flying to Chicago (only a 5 hour drive from here) for a day, but really, it's costing me less to fly then it would to drive (sad, I know). My flight leaves at 9 am and returns from Chicago at 7 pm. I was going to buy a City Pass so I could do all the nerdy, touristy stuff that no one wants to do, but the day that I am going is also free museum day at some of the attractions, including Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium and Field Museum. I'm still planning on visiting the Museum of Science and Industry and the Hancock Observatory while I'm there, and well, you can't go to Chicago and not go to Navy Pier!

I wish I could go for longer, even overnight, but this will tide me over until I can take a real trip, and I'm calling it my birthday present. Yes, I know the camera was my birthday present also....but hey, it's a lot better then a new pair of capris that I keep complaining that I need! And after my last disaster of a trip 3 years ago when we drove to and from in the same day, I really need a do-over with one of my favorite cities. more...

San Francisco CityPass

If you want to explore San Francisco and but do not wish for guided travel, it would be a good idea to get a CityPass. This deal gets you tickets to see five of the city's big attractions, as many rides on the Cable Cars as you would like, and even the option to tour the Legion of Honor or the Academy of Science & Steinhart Aquarium.
