Glencoe’s old ski lift chairs spark a frenzy

People from all over the UK lined up at Glencoe Mountain Resort this weekend, eager to claim a piece of Highland skiing history. The resort’s sale of 120 vintage ski lift chairs—dating back to 1990—was so popular that organizers sold more than planned, raising £36,000 in just one day. Locals and visitors alike are now turning these iconic chairs into garden swings, benches, and unique keepsakes. It’s amazing to see how much these pieces mean to the community! What would you do with a ski lift chair in your own home or garden? #Travel #Glencoe #Highlands

Forgotten Ski Resorts: Nature’s Comeback

Ever wondered what happens to old ski resorts when the snow stops falling and the crowds disappear?

Why Los Cabos nights feel colder than you think

Sunshine and warm afternoons might be what you expect in Los Cabos, but winter evenings can catch travelers off guard with a surprising chill. Locals are seeing more tourists buying jackets after sunset, as temperatures drop from the 80s to the 50s and 60s. It’s not freezing, but the desert climate means big swings between day and night. If you’re heading to Cabo this winter, pack layers and plan for cooler marina strolls or rooftop dinners. Anyone else ever been surprised by how cool it gets after dark in a “tropical” spot? Let’s swap tips for making the most of those crisp Cabo nights! #Travel #LosCabos #TravelTips

Would you stand in line for 11 hours for a cookie?

At Disneyland this holiday season, the longest line isn’t for a ride—it’s for a gingerbread cookie shaped like Mickey Mouse! People are waiting up to 11 hours just to snag this buttery, perfectly spiced treat, and they sell out fast. Even mobile orders can disappear before noon, and Disney has had to limit sales to five per person. Some fans say it’s the best cookie in the park, but is any dessert worth that kind of wait? Would you brave the crowds for a bite, or is this just holiday madness? #Travel #Disneyland #GingerbreadCookie

This German Town Is a Real-Life Fairytale

Rick Steves just spilled the tea on Bacharach, a tiny Rhine River town that’s basically a time machine for wine lovers. Think medieval castles, storybook streets, and Riesling straight from the vineyard. You can hop off a riverboat, wander cobblestone alleys, sip wine where popes once did, and even party at a festival where they crown a wine god. If you want a European getaway that feels like a secret, Bacharach is it! #Travel #TravelGoals #Germany

Rick Steves’ Hotel Hack: Stay 2+ Nights!

Travel pro tip: Rick Steves says booking a hotel for just one night is a rookie mistake. Not only do you waste time and money hopping from place to place, but you also miss out on really exploring an area. Stay at least two nights—get better rates, cut down on transport costs, and actually enjoy your trip. Plus, you’ll have a full day to soak in the sights instead of packing and moving. Who knew less moving could mean more fun (and cash saved)? #Travel #TravelTips #RickSteves
