Halloween & Holidays

Check out where some of the places are...
Vacation Like a Holiday Movie
Hallmark Christmas Suites
So I know many of you are big Hallmark Movie fans, and I am guessing at least part of it is that they have a lot of event planners as characters. They finally stopped calling them party planners. Some storylines even portray a lot of it pretty well… anyway Wyndham and Hallmark Movies have paired up to create some Christmas Suites at some of their hotels. Thanks to Kim Cowperthwait, CMP for sending this my way!
25 Festive Christmas Towns to Visit for the Holidays

Things That Interest Me...and Maybe You (Part 2)
Some Scary, but Spectacular things to do…
Some breathtaking airports…in both the good and bad way!
Some of the most interesting airports to fly into and out of, and which side of the plane to sit on. So far I have only done the two US ones, but looking forward to seeing many of the others in the next few years.
Climbing a skyscraper---on the outside…
This will not be on my bucket list, but maybe yours?
In a Helicopter with your feet hanging out the door….over NYC
This will most likely never make it to my list, but I want to thank Melanie Koundourou, CMP for telling us about it. The picture is hers, the article is not but gives you more information. There seems to be multiple companies doing it now-----aerial view of the Macy’s Parade anyone?

And yet there's more...
Did you lose your CMP between 2016 and 2021?
Sit in the Attendee’s Chair…
We all know how I feel about this….
Fluffernutter Wontons????
Ok I like ping pong , but I’m going for the Fluffernutter and the “T” drink!
Would you let a vending machine decide where you are traveling?
Skimpflation?
I learned at least two new words in this article…and yes it pertains to hospitality---and more.
The real cost of commuting
Some things to think about as you decide whether you want to commute…
Why Vaccinations Matter to Our Industry
The only way the industry will truly come back to how we knew it…
Can’t Decide what to wear? Yes it may have to do with the Pandemic.
This all makes perfect sense to me. I am amazed what can trip me up sometimes, that would have required much less thought before ….
