Vicarious Cinematic Vacation

Standby travel can really SUCK sometimes...

Don't get me wrong...we've visited some AMAZING PLACES, and have seen some AMAZING SIGHTS because of Duane's employee and retired employee status with the former Northwest Airlines, but, times like now...when everyone is trying to get SOMEWHERE, it can really suck to not be able to get ANYWHERE.

So...to escape the dreary, cold, snowy Minnesota winter, since we couldn't actually GET anywhere (except for Phoenix, and maybe Detroit), we decided to see a movie each day, and visit places like Middle Earth...


the North Pole...


Paris (during the French revolution)...


and Washington, D.C. (during the Civil War).


LOVE the movies, and we haven't had a chance to see anything for MONTHS, so this was a GREAT way to catch up on recent releases, and see parts of the world (made up and otherwise) that we might not have had the chance to see...

I think tomorrow, we're going to London...


then Sunday we'll go on a cross-country journey with Barbra Streisand.


Monday...who knows??  Maybe WHEREVER "Wreck It Ralph" hangs out...!!!


Here's hoping YOU were able to "get away" recently too...whether physically, or just by using your imagination!!!!!
