Chincoteague, Virginia may be one of our favorite State-side family vacations. There is something for everyone here, and we all had a great time. We went in mid-September, just past peak season and before most things close up for the winter.
Chincoteague is a quaint little seaside town on the East Coast, neighboring Assateague Island National Shoreline in Maryland. You get the majestic Atlantic ocean for glorious beach and sand days, along with the calm waters of the Chesapeake Bay system for other water sports. The name might ring a bell for those who had read “Misty of Chincoteague”, for sightings of these wild ponies are a huge draw for visiting.

Don’t Miss:
Pony Boat Tour - take a cruise to see the wild horses from the water - the views are spectacular! We love Cowboy Cruise Company.
Shellfish Tour - can combine this with above through Cowboy Cruise Company for the absolute best oysters and clams the East Coast (or anywhere!) has to offer. A must for shellfish lovers.
Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge - hikes, bikes, nature and time with the family!
The Beach!
The Food - We loved the Island Creamery for ice cream, Sandy Pony Donuts for the freshest donuts ever, Captain Zack’s Seafood and Pico Taqueria for the most amazing tacos (we ate here twice!).

Pack your bags for an unforgettable fun family vacation to a small little island that will steal your heart.

Washington D.C. is a unique and vibrant city, full of historical significance, political importance and cultural diversity. Also, the closest large city to where I live!

Although the weather is still very hot, I find visiting D.C. (especially the museums) in mid-late August is a great time to go. Summer camps have finished, a lot of kids have started school and field trips aren’t in full swing yet. So if you can manage the heat, I find this is a less crowded time to visit overall.

Some Highlights:
Favorite Memorials - Jefferson Memorial and Lincoln Memorial
Favorite Smithsonian Museum - Natural History Museum and National Portrait Gallery
Favorite Non-Smithsonian Museum - International Spy Museum and Planet Word
Hidden Gem of D.C. - Hillwood Estate, Museum and Gardens
Favorite Eats - Zaytinya, Rose’s Luxury, Sushi Taro, Purple Patch
Favorite Hotels - Hamilton Hotel, Embassy Suites Downtown, The Mayflower

The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum!
We haven’t been to this location in years. Definitely great for a more museum type experience regarding history of air and space travel.
If you like this museum don’t miss the Udvar-Hazy location near Dulles Airport which has many more planes on display, including a space shuttle!

My husband and I traveled to Bali, Indonesia for an anniversary trip. We did a lot of relaxing at the beach and pool, but also spent some time exploring as well. Bali is a mix of lush jungles, gorgeous beaches and ancient temples, and with something for everyone you can easily tailor your trip to be relaxing or action packed.

Some highlights for us:
Snorkeling at Manta Bay with impressively large manta rays
A bike tour around small villages on the island including impressive views of volcanoes and landscapes and a visit to Mason Elephant Park.

Spending a relaxing day at Crystal Island - soaking up the sun and snorkeling.

The Food - including an Indonesian feast and Luwak coffee (coffee made from beans harvested from poo of a civet cat).

Let Travel Bug By Amy plan your anniversary or special celebration get-a-away. From the exotic shores of Indonesia to places closer to home, I can tailor your trip to fit your needs. A magical escape without the stress of planning.

Verona, Italy is a city of romance and timeless beauty. It is also a delightful option in the summer, as is slightly cooler than southern cities such as Rome. Stroll through cobblestone streets, admire ancient Roman ruins and feel the Shakespearean romance at Juliet's window. The city is situated on a river, giving picturesque views and has a great food scene.

Don’t Miss:
Juliet’s House - balcony/window and love wall
Piazza delle Erbe
Arena di Verona - ancient amphitheater
Castelvecchio - castle situated on the Adige River

Verona, Italy invites you to fall in love, again and again!
Let Travel Bug By Amy plan your trip to Italy - and fall in love with all the country has to offer - especially Verona!
