Visitor’s Guide to Summer Fun at Keuka Lake

June 17, 2018 By Julie

  Here you go world…The Idleours Guide to Summer Fun at Keuka Lake! Disclaimer: This article is not meant to be all-inclusive. Idleours is our family cottage on the west side of Keuka, and the activities listed below are geared towards visiting family and friends. As a result, it’s west-side-centric and focused on the stuff…

Glamping at BaseCamp 37°: Perfectly Peaceful, and Perfectly Appointed

February 3, 2018 By Julie

Why “glamp” at BaseCamp 37° outside Kanab, Utah? For a remote, peaceful, wilderness experience without having to sleep on the ground or haul a boatload of gear. My time at BaseCamp 37° felt like heaven after seven straight nights of tent-camping in southern Utah, and it came with more than a few surprises. I went…

10 Days in Northern Ireland

November 5, 2017 By Julie

Planning a trip to Northern Ireland?  We've developed a focused, 10-day itinerary that has it all: hiking, history, charming villages, castle ruins, and stunning vistas.   Chris and I love to get boots on the ground, so our plan involves three days of hiking the Causeway Coast Way.  If you're not that into hiking, that’s ok!…

31 Days Exploring Cambodia and Vietnam

June 11, 2017 By Julie

Overview Wanna go to Cambodia and Vietnam? Ummm sure…I guess… This trip was Chris’s idea. To me, Cambodia and Vietnam seemed exotic, unfamiliar, and to be honest, a bit scary. We forged ahead since Chris really really wanted this trip (he’s a huge history and war buff) and I love to explore so I figured…

Vietnam Motorbike Tour Day 3: Khe Sanh to Hue

May 17, 2017 By Julie

This article is the third in a 3-part series. Also read about Day 1 and Day 2. This is it! The third and final day of our 3-day motorbike trip, and the one that ultimately convinced us to book this tour. Day 3 was billed as “DMZ day” where we’d travel near the demilitarized zone…

Passing a zebu; one of a dozen times or more that we dodged cattle on the road.

Vietnam Motorbike Tour Day 2: Phong Nha to Khe Sanh

May 8, 2017 By Julie

This article is the second in a 3-part series.  Read about Day 1 here. Starting at the end: I finished day two of our three-day motorbike tour with knees aching, face coated with gritty grime, and butt sore, chafed, and bruised in twin lines tracing the outline of my underwear (!). It took almost 10 hours…

Our first glimpse of Phong Nha Ke-Bang National Park. With overcast skies and flat light this pic doesn't do the place justice. It is drop- dead gorgeous with rich deep greens, expansive rice paddies, and lush foliage draped over rugged, rocky hills.

Vietnam Motorbike Tour Day 1: Dong Hoi to Phong Nha

April 17, 2017 By Julie

This article is the first in a 3-part series.  Read about Day 2 here. What a day! After day one of our much anticipated 3-day motorbike tour from Donh Hoi to Hue, Chris was hinting at buying a bike once we get home. I’m pretty sure he’s kidding. He’d better be - one of us has to be…
