2024 isn't as big of a travel year as years past. This coincides with a small shift in my travel focus. At the end of 2023 I indicated that I wanted to take more trips with friends and family.

It's time to wrap up our Minion Family trip to the East coast of North America. It revolves around two main elements: New York City and a maritime cruise.

2023 seemingly feels like a bigger travel year than others in the past. While I didn't go on as many trips, the ones I did go on felt pretty grand and I'm not upset by it!
