In episode 113, we talk about the current financial climate and explain how we found an opportunity to fund more travel. After years of historically low-interest rates, you might find substantially higher rates on savings and money market accounts by doing a bit of shopping.  We were surprised at how much interest earnings we were missing out on and made a change. We explore ideas for travel opportunities if you can earn more money by getting a better interest rate on your savings.   The Places Where We Go Resources PODCAST: Released every other week in your favorite podcast app WEBSITE & BLOG www.theplaceswherewego.com SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/theplaceswherewego TWITTER / X: https://twitter.com/theplaceswhere1 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/ThePlacesWhereWeGo EMAIL: Write to us at comments@theplaceswherewego.com GEAR WE USE: The Places Where We Go Amazon Storefront We'll see you at the places where we go.

Welcome to Episode 108, where we take you on a virtual journey through the Battle of Britain Bunker. Located in Uxbridge, England, this historic site played a crucial role as the headquarters for RAF Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain during World War II. It is now open to the public as a museum, preserving the heritage and bravery of those who defended Britain against Nazi Germany's air raids in 1940. During our recent trip to London, we traveled to Uxbridge by tube. At the museum, we first explored it on our own, taking in all the exhibits and artifacts that tell the story of this pivotal moment in British history. But the real highlight of the visit was the guided tour of the bunker itself. A knowledgeable guide led it with a passion for sharing the history of this command center from World War II. We descended underground into the very rooms where the decisions were made that ultimately determined the fate of Britain. The bunker, which was top-secret during the war, has been painstakingly restored to its original condition and gives visitors a glimpse into what life was like for those stationed there. A special mention is given to the Polish pilots who were integral in defending Britain's skies against German attacks.

In episode 89, we take two-day trips from Sedona, Arizona. This is part three of a series of podcasts recapping our travels to Camp Verde, Sedona, and nearby places in Arizona. Day Trips From Sedona We had two main destinations outside of Sedona during our travel to the area - Jerome Arizona and the Grand Canyon. Jerome Arizona Day Trip We booked the Jerome History Walk tour with the Jerome Ghost Tours company.  The small group tour explored the once-booming mining history of the area, visiting key locations in town. We loved listening to stories about the old mining town, saloon escapes, and the rise and decline of Jerome. Book a Jerome History Walk Tour Here   When in Jerome, we highly recommend The Clinkscale for dining.  Our lunch there was fantastic! We started our day attending church at St. Cecilia Catholic Church in nearby Clarkdale, Arizona.  After mass, we strolled the town, which offered a wonderful small-town America feel. Grand Canyon Railway Tour Our next day trip adventure was riding about The Grand Canyon Railway from Williams, AZ, to the Grand Canyon Village. The vintage train traveled through beautiful plains and canyons. We enjoyed the live entertainment including Wild West shoot-out before our ride, and musicians who serenaded us during the journey.  If you haven't seen the Grand Canyon dusted with snow, it is quite a sight to see. Book a Grand Canyon Railway Ride Here   Downtown Sedona Visit We also take a quick stop in Downtown Sedona for shopping, coffee, and browsing the art galleries at the Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village.   Zane Grey RV Village Our week-long stay near Sedona was at the Zane Grey RV Village in Camp Verde. We provide a recap of this stay on today's episode.
