A Highway Guide to Nevada

From the shores of Lake Tahoe to the allusive Area 51 and to the majestic Hoover Dam, our Nevada road trip was full of unique signs, historic towns, and a handful of tumbleweeds.

Switzerland

From exploring art museums in Basel, to not lifting a finger at luxurious hotels, and to visiting charming Swiss chalets, our second trip to the Land of Milk and Honey was just as magical as the first.

The Seventh Continent

All aboard! We embark from the end of the world aboard the MS Roald Amundsen on a (shivery) trip of a lifetime!

A Curious Scottish Excursion

Over a century ago, Phileas Fogg circumnavigated the globe over 80 trips around the sun. Taking a page out of his whimsical legacy, we found ourselves on a similarly audacious adventure—in Scotland.

An Off-centered Vermont Road Trip

Join AWA and our off-centered friends over at Dogfish Head for an even more off-centered adventure in the Green Mountain State!

A Rocky Mountain Road Trip

From the western metropolis of Denver to the surrounding Rocky Mountains, there’s something for everyone in the heart of Colorado.

Dollhouses were not always just for kids! Displayed in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, this Dutch Dollhouse was popular in the 17th century as a pastime for the wealthy. But the real kicker: they were not just for children, but were enjoyed by all ages. This dollhouse also reflects the growing and expanding economy of the time, as materials like silver and porcelain are used that have been most likely imported from far away places.

This dollhouse room sits in the Dutch and Flemish art wing of the BMFA, and is still enjoyed to this day by children and adults alike.
