Up, Up and Away
I suppose I could have saved that title for the first time I ascended in a hot air balloon, but that won't happen anytime soon. I guess the reason I peruse the travel sites on Mondays is to dream about traveling on Tuesday. Oh well.
Marisa Bowes is a writer for Slate, and a member of a frequent-flier list, like many of us are. But how many of you would have jumped (and how high?) for a $61 round trip fare to Iceland? Read her week-long story here.
World Hum has a wonderful story about diving in the Whitsundays, a small chain of "drowned mountains" midway between the Australian coast and the Great Barrier Reef. Fascinating.
I had a great weekend, exploring the Northwestern corner of Connecticut with my fiancee and my son, then barbecuing it up on the south coast of Rhode Island with friends. Have a great Monday!
