Category: Travel Tales

OK Travel Tales is all about me and my adventures traveling. I can be a frustrated traveler. It might be because I am stressed out, tired or just a rude person. Now days I try not to moan too much when when flights are delayed, airline food is a visual mess or there is no inflight Internet. (Note Airlines – If Delta can do this you can too.)
So I travel for work, to catch up with family and friends, to go to sporting games, for family history research, blogging conferences and to share my trip with others I blog.
