The Ohrns

I recently returned from a trip to the tropical paradise of Antigua with my mother. We stayed at an all-inclusive resort, wiling our days away in island luxury while enjoying tasty meals and a few activities. Antigua is beautiful and I would recommend a visit there if you’re in need of ocean-adjacent relaxation uniformly good…

Angela and I recently returned from a short trip to Phoenix for our (roughly) annual trip to see the Fiesta Bowl. This year’s match-up between Ole Miss and Miami proved to be competitive, although a little sloppy. Luckily, the last seven minutes of the game were exciting enough to make up for the other three-and-a-half…

We recently returned from a family trip to Deer Valley, Utah, where we celebrated our fifteenth wedding anniversary with Fitz in tow. The weather was chilly and we spent most of our time together in front of the fireplace, although we did brave the frigid temperatures for some wintry hikes. More than anything, it was…

Angela, Fitz, and I recently celebrated my fortieth birthday with a relaxing trip to Southern California. We spent our time enjoying the beautiful weather while walking along beautiful trails and through San Diego’s largest park. It was yet another trip where we made great memories as a family. Bookings Hotels One suite for four nights…

Angela and I recently returned from a trip to Vietnam. While there, we explored Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Hue, Da Nang, and Ho Chi Minh City (née Saigon). While we spent most of our nights in hotels, we were lucky enough to spend a pair of evenings sleeping on the water in Ha Long Bay.…

Angela and I recently visited Minneapolis for the second of this year’s bi-annual churning meetups. While there, we met up with our friends from around the country before heading to our first ever state fair for unhealthy (but delicious) food and carnival rides. The weather was lovely (certainly much better than when I visited in…

Angela and I recently returned from a trip to the island of Maui in Hawaii. We hiked, snorkeled, watched a beautiful sunrise, and spent time exploring the unique natural landscape. This was our first time on Maui and, while we enjoyed our time on the island, we didn’t feel like it lived up to its…

Editor’s note: This post was written by Angela, so the first-person refers to her (unlike most content on this site). I recently returned from a girls’ trip to Malaysia with my good friend Xiaoling. While there, we spent time in Penang, the Cameron Highlands, and Kuala Lumpur. This was a new destination for me, and…

Angela and I recently returned from a trip to Austin for the fifth of my semi-annual credit card and travel enthusiast meetups. This was an extension of our trip to the Turks and Caicos Islands as we stopped on our way home rather than doubling back. Like always, it was excellent to see the people…

Angela and I recently returned from a trip to the Turks and Caicos Islands (henceforth referred to as TCI for brevity). We weren’t alone in paradise, though, as we were joined by my brother, James, his girlfriend, Mallie, our mother, Constance, and her partner, Paulette. We took this trip in the midst of our mother…
