When my husband and I moved to Connecticut many years ago, I think the only thing I knew about Connecticut at all was Yale. Pepe’s (voted by thrillist.com as best pizza in the country for 3 years running) and Sally’s. If you want authentic abeetz, head over to Wooster Street and hop in line for Pepe’s pizza. Order the white clam pizza (the best pizza in America according to thrillist.com) or the fresh tomato (summer availability only) and wash it down with locally-produced Foxon Park Birch beer.

The vessel was created by Thomas Weathermark as an art piece that would help tourists see a spectacular view of  New York City. You do need tickets to climb the vessel and there are two options: There are same day tickets available at the vessel and they are FREE. I suggest you go to the vessel first and book your tickets and then explore the Hudson Yards Mall or hang out in the Public Square.

Whether you are looking for a resort with an indoor waterpark, or you want to spend more time outside enjoying the natural beauty of Pennsylvania, these are some of the best family-friendly resorts in the Poconos. With multiple places to eat inside the lodge itself, including a swanky cocktail bar that overlooks the waterpark, you’ll never have to leave the resort to eat. In addition to the large indoor water park, Great Wolf Lodge has tons of paid activities like bowling, a ropes course, and their interactive game, MagiQuest. At almost 100 years old, Sky Top Lodge’s original building exudes class and charm not typical of a family-friendly resort in the Poconos.

Vanessa will cover budget-friendly transportation options to and around Italy, how to save money on Italy trip accommodations, how to find cheap eats in Italy and more. Many cities are just an inexpensive train ride away from each other, so flying into Milan and then taking the train to Venice, for example, may be much more cost-effective, and if you can fit that into your schedule, it’s a great way to see more of the country. Many people will tell you to buy a rail pass to save you the hassle of booking separate train tickets, but if you know where you’re going ahead of time, purchasing individual tickets is easy, and can actually save you a lot of money if you’re willing to do the cost comparison ahead of time. If you’re traveling with a family or want flexibility to travel beyond the train routes, renting a car doesn’t have to be expensive.
