Getting to Know Your Travelin' Cousins...Can you believe it's Thursday already? I can't! This week is moving along very quickly. Excited to read Tanya's Throwback Thursday story today! With the end of summer and the official beginning of the Fall season, I thought a "getting to know you" blog today was a good way to reacquaint our followers with our sight. When we started Travelin' Cousins 4 months ago, our goal was to write a blog about our love of traveling, our individual and combined traveling adventures and our daily lives as moms and bi-coastal cousins. Four months later, we have expanded our site to include many other travel features, that I would invite you to check out many of these aspects of our website: Throwback Thursdays Each Thursday Tanya and I invite you to take a visit down memory lane with us to remenisce about a travel story from years past. Today, join Tanya on her journey back to 2012 and her camping trip to Zion National Park. Foodie Fridays One of our greatest enjoyments when we travel is the food!! Tanya and I love, love, love to eat! Each Friday, we share a different eating experience! Tomorrow, I'll be telling you all about Cafe Mambo in Westhampton!! Travel Blog Our Travel Blog is where you will find articles about our most recent trips and excursions. I invite you to take a gander - from Cooking classes on Long Island to the Flower Fields of Carlsbad, California to watching morning exercises of Lipizzaners at the Spanish Riding School in Vienna - we hope our stories will inspire you to see some of the places we have! Trips on the Horizon Join us as we plan new trips and create itineraries through our specific trip pages. Many of these we feature on Travelin' Tuesdays. Some of these future trips include: - New Mexico Road Trip Blog & Trip Details - Iceland Trip Planning Recent Trip Blogs Missed the day by day account of our recent European trips - catch up on our August 2014 trips: - Elisa's Italy Trip - Tanya's UK & Scandinavia Trip Long Island Page If you live on Long Island, are planning a visit or if you know someone that resides or will be traveling to Long Island - please check out our Long Island page!

Join in on the fun of watching me plan out this new exciting adventure on the Iceland Planning Page! 4) My sweet Cosette has had a fascination with doing her nails lately and showed me this adorable peppermint swirl design that she did. I am mega impressed! I don't even think the girls at my salon can pull off such a cool look! You go Cosette! Told ya I was gonna be all over the place! Hope I didn't forget anything! Otherwise I suppose you'll just have to wait until tomorrow ;) Have a great day! -T |
