Going to Guatemala 15 June 2017 On a whim, I decided to book a weekend in Guatemala mid June 2017. I literally booked the ticket the day before I left! Whether that is advisable or not is probably the subject of another post! I’ve done some spontaneous things in my travels but never this. I

I took a quick jaunt back to my favorite city NYC for Veteran’s Day weekend. This was another solo trip. I took my usual 8am flight on American direct into JFK except that we got delayed on the tarmac by an hour. So by the time I got to the airport, and through the subway
