Careful Covid Travels {Travel Tips}

6/26/2020

0 Comments

 
My husband Bryce and I have just returned from our first trip since the Covid outbreak.

We traveled from Seattle, WA to Pittsburgh, PA to visit with my friends and family there. We spent ten days in my hometown and at our family's cabin in the nearby Laurel Highland mountains. 

Here we'll tell you what travel was like and the steps we took for extra care and safety while flying. On Tuesday I'll share a video of our travels so you can see even more of what traveling during Covid is like. 

We chose to travel because we feel it's safer to do so now while everyone is still being careful, rather than in a few months when companies and individuals might be more relaxed. Of course your level of comfortability is up to you!

I love theme parks and have been to the Disney and Universal Studios parks in both California and Florida.

This post covers {the food} at Universal Studios in Hollywood, California. Here's where to find more about {the rides} at Universal Studios Hollywood. 

If you're looking for Universal Studios in Orlando I've got you covered. See more California parks here. 

Welcome to {the food} at Universal Studios Hollywood! 

Universal Studios does dining well and quickly. You can't make reservations for meals in advance and the process to order, eat, and clean up is both fast and efficient!

Let's get right to it...

How to Order at In-N-Out Burger

2/28/2020

1 Comment

 
I've visited California more times than I can count and mastering how to order at In-N-Out Burger has taken me years, especially since I quit eating meat! I'm here to help you prepare for your visit to Cali with this useful post. 

For more California goodness check out Travel Guides for Long Beach, Palm Springs, Disneyland, and Disney's California Adventure. 

​Last week's post on Long Beach mentions our recent visit to California's prized In-N-Out Burger but let's get a little more specific today, shall we?

In-N-Out has an oddly simplistic menu and learning how to order just right isn't easy! There's a "secret" menu and plenty of tips and tricks that you won't learn in the drive through line so I'm here to help you navigate the West Coast's favorite fast food spot with ease.

To make things more complicated during our recent visit our crew was a trio of one meat eater, one vegetarian, and one gluten free eater. We all walked out fat and happy 30 minutes later and that's quite an accomplishment given our self-imposed dietary restrictions.

We snuck out of the wintery gloom in Seattle for a long weekend in Long Beach, California earlier this month. Myself, my husband Bryce, and our great friend Lauren walked, scootered, and explored all over the city! 

This Travel Guide highlights the best parts of our trip and where you should stop if you make a visit to Long Beach. And no, we didn't see Snoop Dogg but we did sing "with so much drama in the LBC" often!
