I'm one of the lucky ones. I've had a really smooth pregnancy. Sure, there have been tiny bouts of anemia, some brutal morning sickness and definite swelling, but all in all I'd consider myself fortunate. I had energy (at least until week 34) and felt good. So, when the doctor...

Is Ryanair getting too sexy?

The airline, famous for its annual charity calendar , is also currently boasting "red hot fares & crew" on its site.

Though, that's no surprise from an airline famous for pushing the envelope. In the past year, CEO Michael O'Leary...

I don't know why this bothers me so much, being called "ma'am." I am, after all, 30, pregnant and happen to have some laugh lines that could be construed as wrinkles.

It happened recently on the subway coming home from work. The subways were packed because train service was...

Fall foliage, or at least the first signs of color, was meant to start creeping down the shores of New York's Hudson River this past weekend. So, in search of golden leaves and crisper temperatures, I headed up to New Paltz, New York.

The town was packed -- our...

Earlier this spring, I ventured to London to check out how the city was preparing for the Olympics. I visited the Stratford area where the Olympics are being held as well as Heathrow's control tower. I also took a trip along the city's canals because...

The landscape in which "Brave," Pixar's latest film, unfolds is not merely a dream conjured by the studio's talented animators, but a lovingly recreation of a singular landscape. In fact, Pixar sent two teams to Scotland starting in 2006 to explore the country's castles, glens, forests and coastline.

Many aspects...

Miley Cyrus got engaged a few weeks back to her adorable boyfriend. Fine, great, excellent, I'm happy for her. But I've been asked to debate why she's too young to get married, so here goes.

1. Reason. She is 19. Rich, poor, celebrity or lay person, that's too young....

As I stepped into the elevator my palms sweated, my knees shook and my teeth chattered.

"It's only broken down twice," said my guide.

"Oh, great," I replied, staring at the floor rather than looking out the windows.

The exterior elevator began its 88-foot climb to the five-year-old...

London is bracing itself. The 2012 Summer Olympics officially begin on July 27 and the capital of a country known for bumbling self-consciousness is about to have the eyes of the world upon it.

Eager to get a sense of the preparations, I headed toward the area...

Even as I waded into the water, peeling seaweed off my crispy skin, stepping on rocks and stubbing my big toe, I knew I needed it.

It had been four months since my last vacation. I know what you're thinking, and I thought it, too, until I realized just how...

I have just returned from three days at Disney World. I'm a tad sunburnt, a bit exhausted and have sore legs. But I'm also exhilarated.

I'll be honest: I was a bit terrified by the prospect of spending three days at a crowded amusement park during high...

Disney Cruise Line's newest ship, the Fantasy, was christened on the Hudson River in New York City Thursday night.

Ample amounts of champagne flowed as guests toured the ship's atrium, which still had that "new ship smell," and guests were treated to a mini-Disney concert inside the ship's...

I have a love/hate relationship with football.

I hate that, for the last remaining 80 degree days in the fall, I find myself sitting inside yelling at the television as if it was the playoffs. I hate that Sundays in the fall mean nose-tingling wings (I don't eat them,...

An unidentified Sikh man in his mid-50s was stabbed while waiting for his flight on Sunday evening at Fresno's Yosemite International Airport.

The man was waiting for his flight around 5:30pm on Sunday in the airport near the security checkpoint with his translator when a 26-year-old white...

"Austin's great."

"Austin is the best."

"You'll love Austin. It's just so...weird."

It was like a Shakespearean chorus of voices in my head as I landed in the Texas capital. As soon as I got off the plane, there were shirts, coffee mugs, everything with the city's catchphrase "Keep Austin...

There's a reason so many songs have been written about our southern neighbors. Mexico is home to nearly 114 million people, with 78% of the population living in urban areas such as Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.

Yet, despite Mexico's widely urban population, the beach towns along the country's Pacific...

Chef Andrew Weissman, who owns a slew of restaurants in San Antonio, doesn't just travel for fun, he travels for food. "I don't have friends who don't travel for food," he tells Huffington Post Travel from his home in San Antonio.
