We had a nice Thanksgiving last week.  In the morning, I skipped my usual Turkey Trot.  Although we did stay active and went for a family swim at our local athletic club.  In the afternoon, friends came over and we had a nice meal.  Having four kids under six made for some craziness, but we all had fun. Another highlight during the month was going to our City's holiday parade.  This was the second year we've gone and luckily the weather was warmer than last year's bitter cold temps.  The main features are all different fire trucks and vehicles from the past 100 years or so.  Both kids love seeing everything.  At the end of the parade, Santa lights a tree, and there is time to explore the different vehicles. Last weekend, we spent a morning in Downtown Madison.  This is one of our kid's favorite places to visit.  We started at the Madison Children's Museum.  Next, we rode a Christmas-themed trolly around Capitol Square and up and down State Street (one of the main and iconic streets in Madison).  Went inside the Capitol to see if the tree was done (it wasn't decorated yet).  And we finished up with pizza for lunch. The end of the year is a good time to check your passport and make sure it is still valid.  I just realized last week that my daughter's expired this past July, and we are going on a cruise next summer.  On our agenda in the next month is going to be taking care of this. 2022 has been another fantastic year for Blue Sea Vacations.  I helped more people travel than any previous year - honeymooners, families, couples, friends, and groups.  The majority of you came back having experienced a wonderful vacation.  I'm thrilled to have played a small part in your journey. Looking ahead, the demand for travel doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.  After spending the better part of two years isolated, many people want to get out, explore, and reconnect with friends and family.  I'm always happy to help you plan your next vacation.
