These Ballistic shoes provide you with unparalleled cushioning and support, but they could use some help with their logo. Since this is a family friendly blog I’m going to stop there.

Everyone could use a little advice now and then. And let’s be honest- when was the last time you knew everything about a particular subject? There’s so much information out there to sift through, but hidden out there on the web are some really good tips available that people need and are looking for.
For instance, when I got back from my first cruise I wrote a blog post about cruising for the first time- packed with information I wish I had known before I left. To make it easier for those who are looking for information, I created this roundup of all my favorite travel tips and advice. Look through it- there may be something that interests you.
CNN posted an article talking about babies flying on airplanes and how their crying affects other travelers. I would just like to utilize my own platform (you know since this is my blog) to voice my opinion on the subject. I actually feel like I am an expert on the subject because I have been on over 100 flights in the past two years and twenty flights with my newborn baby. So I have recently been on both sides of the equation.
I too have been annoyed by children on airplanes. But I see where they are coming from. Flying is not pleasant for 9 out of 10 travelers (the 10th is flying first class) and it is a stressful situation. So of course the child starts out anxious, tired and grumpy. Most of the times the child has missed a nap, snack time, or has not had enough time to run around and play. However- parents need to be held responsible to keep children from kicking the seats in front of them, talking too loud, or throwing things at other passengers.
I fly more than the average person- I’m usually on at least 4-8 flights a month. I try to be prepared for hours spent in a plane with a book or at least some movies loaded onto my iPhone, but for some reason I’m often drawn to the SkyMall magazine. Its like a black hole sucking me in from the moment I take my seat. I know I’ll probably never buy anything from inside its pages. I can’t imagine myself putting up a giant crossword puzzle on my wall and slowly filling it out. So why am I drawn to the SkyMall? Usually its to look at the hilarity of some of the products and pass a few minutes of time. For this reason we’ve decided to do a regular post of the most ridiculous things in SkyMall.
Justin over at Southern Explorations sent me their list of the 10 best reasons to visit South America in 2010. I thought it was extremely pertinent because I am sending my photographer to Argentina this week. I am a little sad to not be going myself- but figure our brother-in-law would be a better companion because he speaks the language.
So here you go- as if you needed an excuse, the top 10 best reasons to visit South America in 2010:
1. It’s Still Affordable: It used to cost much more to fly to South America than to Europe but not anymore. Airfares from many US cities are comparable, and after you arrive, you’ll find hotel and meal prices mostly lower. Favorable exchange rates make 2010 the perfect time to go.
