Ever since its inception, Nickelodeon has been synonymous with SLIME.
Naturally, on the Nickelodeon All Access Cruise, slimings occur daily.
Children and adults are chosen to participate based on their level of wild and craziness when the game leader says, “WHO WANTS TO PLAY???”
Jojo figured out the formula and got to go on stage TWICE in one [...]

Hello! That is how we say “Hello” here in the Bahamas. Yep. Always glad to educate.

Jojo and I got to visit Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island, Bahamas, last January (2010). This time we had the chance to wander around Nassau (New Providence island) for a day.
We only went as far as we could walk from [...]

I had a special shared experience with my 6-year-old son Jojo. Both of us got slimed for the first time, together.
We didn’t know what to expect when we stepped into the Slimulator on the Nickelodeon All Access Cruise. But now that we have lived it, I can tell you what you need to know.
Pre-sliming, seated [...]

Jojo and I made MomMostTraveled history recently when we flew Kuwait Airlines for the first time.
The flight was from Bangkok to Kuwait, Kuwait to London, London to JFK (NYC).
I read many grumpy reviews about the Kuwait Airlines planes being old and out of date, with repairs needed. So I wasn’t surprised when our TV [...]

When I was growing up, before the internet was accessible to the common man, my parents did a pretty good job of planning our family vacations.
They relied on AAA and trip-ticks (is that how you spell it?), and while we did have some “duds” in our day (I’m looking at you, Santa Land), [...]

Wordlock® is a combination lock that uses letters and word combinations instead of numbers.
The Wordlock 4-Dial Luggage Lock is a great option for travel; you can make up to 10,000 different letter combinations.
We have a Wordlock bicycle lock as well, and have used easy combinations that my 6-year-old can remember, such as "BATS" (because [...]

On the movies, busty women are always hiding stuff in their bra.
Full disclosure, I can probably still buy bras in the Juniors department. I am a small person by every dimension, and I could definitely not hide a revolver in my (air-quotes) “cleavage”.
But! With The Racktrap, a special wallet made to put in the cup [...]
