Not that many of you will travel through the Quad Cities Airport but if you find yourself there and happen to be traveling with a child, this is a great distraction for the flight.

Early Spring Snow
This winter, I traveled to Roatan, part of the Bay Islands off the coast of Honduras. In the spirit of Warner weather, I give you a photo from the place where I had one of the best meals of 2012, La Sierna.
The restaurant may not be much to look at, but you can beat the location on the East End of Roatan. And then there’s the food: the fish was the catch of the day, as in literally caught that day. Fresh salsa was a medley of fresh veggies served with homemade tortilla chips. A simple, healthy delicious meal served with the waves lapping below.
And if you time your trip right, you may even get to see the turtles, as the water around La Sierna serves as a turtle rescue sanctuary.
Take a break from the snow and think beach for a bit this afternoon.
Jupiter Hotel, Portland
The Jupiter is so Portland. From the hipster bands playing in the adjacent bar, to the chalkboard doors, the Jupiter is funky and fun.
And your room comes equipped with everything you may need beyond the minibar. A condom, ear plugs (you’ll definitely need these- the fun comes at a price), and a Breathe Right strip are all gratis.
It’s minimalist in design but since you’ll be up all night enjoying the microbrews and the band, you won’t even notice.
First things first
It’s customary to do an introductory post, but this has been such a long time coming there’s no good place to start. I’ll just say, I travel A LOT so here’s my attempt to share tips from the road. It’ll be a hodge-podge of airports, hotels, restaurants, shopping, music and other miscellany. Enjoy!
