    EP 57 Do You Really Need That Vacation Upgrade?
    1 Oct 2026
    You booked the vacation. You paid for the hotel, park tickets, or cruise.And then the add-ons start.Lightning Lanes. After Hours. Specialty dining. Beach clubs. Water parks. Cabanas. Excursions. Upgraded transportation.Suddenly, the vacation you thought you paid for has another shopping cart attached to it.In Episode 57, Meg looks at the growing world of vacation upgrades and asks the question we probably need to ask more often: Do you actually need it?Some extras can absolutely be worth the money, especially when they save time, reduce stress, or give you an experience you genuinely want. But others are easy to buy simply because Instagram, TikTok, Facebook groups, and good old-fashioned FOMO make them feel mandatory.Meg talks Disney After Hours, Lightning Lanes, cruise private islands, specialty dining, beach clubs, excursions, and why your vacation budget should be based on what matters to you, not what everyone else says you “have to” do.Because vacation money should feel like joy money, not “I can’t believe I have to pay for this” money.

    EP 56 Beyond the Ship: What We Actually Did in Alaska
    24 Sep 2026
    An Alaska cruise is about a whole lot more than the ship.In Episode 56 of Adventures of Two Grey Mice, we're finally getting off the ship and talking about what we did in Ketchikan, Sitka, and Prince Rupert.We wander Creek Street during the salmon run, hike through the Tongass rainforest, meet some ridiculously large slugs, watch river otters play, walk Sitka's Totem Trail, and head out on the water in search of whales, sea otters, sea lions, and bald eagles.And then there's Prince Rupert, where we skipped the organized excursion altogether and explored on our own.We're sharing what we'd absolutely do again, what surprised us, what we'd change next time, and why seeing Alaska from the ship is only part of the experience.If an Alaska cruise is sitting somewhere on your travel wish list, this one's for you.
