http://michaelmove.blogspot.com/2010/02/michaels-travel-tips.html
Michael on the Move. Monday, February 22, 2010. Planning a trip in the near future? Ready for a break? Whether it's a two week vacation to Europe or a drive to Grandma's for Thanksgiving, sometimes ya just gotta get out of the house! If you bring some little pieces of home with you. Bring a digital camera. It's much easier to remember your trip later if you have pictures! Be aware. Traveling can be a fantastic experience; it can also be a bit unnerving at times (especially in a foreign country). ...A few...

Michael on the Move: Southern Hospitality
http://michaelmove.blogspot.com/2010/05/southern-hospitality.html
Michael on the Move. Saturday, May 1, 2010. Last week I had the fortunate opportunity to visit my cousin Arlan in Atlanta, Georgia. I'd been through the Atlanta airport many times - usually en route to Honolulu, San Francisco, Austin, etc. - but I'd never had the chance to actually leave the airport and explore the city. Well, what better opportunity than to visit family! In the new Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center. Performance of Verdi's Requiem (a "hold onto your seat" performance! And a full morning...

Michael on the Move. Wednesday, April 14, 2010. Over this past Easter holiday I spent the week working and resting in Honolulu, Hawaii – a city in which I lived for a combined total over 10 years beginning in 1992. As many of you probably know, Waikiki. Spots in the world. The first hotel built in Waikiki, The Moana Surfrider. Opened its doors in 1901 and is still one of the most beautiful hotels in Waikiki. Alongside the Moana is the Royal Hawaiian. 8211; Hawaii has something for everyone. Michael Thoma...

Michael on the Move: March 2010
http://michaelmove.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Michael on the Move. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. This month I had the fantastic opportunity to take a trip with my family to San Diego, California, to connect with more of our family including a visit with Grandma Dorothy. As you can well imagine, Minnesota had gotten quite "wintery" by the end of February so the warm winds and blue skies of Southern California were a very welcomed break. We were all ready for some balmier weather! Since Grandma lives in downtown La Mesa. My Uncle Daryl and his wife, Jana...

Michael on the Move: 28 Hours in Amsterdam
http://michaelmove.blogspot.com/2010/01/28-hours-in-amsterdam.html
Michael on the Move. Wednesday, January 27, 2010. 28 Hours in Amsterdam. This past weekend I decided to take advantage of the off-season low travel fares and take a quick hop over to Amsterdam for a visit. I took this trip for many reasons, but the main reasons were to:. Force myself out of my comfort zone. Rack up an additional 10,000 frequent flyer miles. Visit the Anne Frank House and Museum. Have some good European food! Is part of my new RRR strategy (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) - another goal of mine.

Michael on the Move. Tuesday, August 17, 2010. If there's mountains involved, I'm in." This is most likely the reason why my favorite destinations. Include Switzerland, Hawaii and Norway - they all have the beauty of the majestic mountains. Perhaps that's even why I have a photo card set. By that name - the mountains keep drawing me to their mystery. The plan for the weekend was to visit some of the natural beauty and famous landmarks that the Denver area had to offer. The Rockies. Over the extended week...
