• Revisit Spain #2
    Apr 28 2025

    A new Episode will be posted soon (I promise) .. until then revisit Spain (Part two)

    Planes were delayed, lounges were debated, and somehow we ended up alone in a Spanish castle.

    In this rerun, we pick up our travels in Spain — riding not-so-fancy trains, navigating airport drama, and making pacts to only panic when the alarm says it’s time. We also soak up the beauty of Segovia, give it a solid 5 out of 5, and dream about coming back to explore even more.

    It’s travel, marriage, compromise, and occasional shenanigans — all from the perspective of your favorite older, wise lesbians.

    Come wander with us. 🦉🏰✈️
