Travel and Tourism

The results of our first poll on The Travel 100 are in! Is it rude to recline your seat all the way on an airline? The options:

– Yes, it leaves the person behind you with very little space.

– It’s only okay for sleeping on overnight flights.

– No, it’s my right and I’ll continue to do so.

The highest percentage of voters opted for the first answer, with 42%, followed by the second at 31%. But 27% feel it’s their right to recline.

We zipped along on our green scooters, passing the impossibly white sand dunes of the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Santa Rosa Sound on the other, enjoying the unspoiled beauty of Gulf Islands National Seashore in Navarre Beach.

Navarre Beach bills itself as Florida’s most relaxing beach. While you can chill on its gorgeous sand and watch the gentle waves, we also wanted to explore; our scooter trip was a highlight.

Another highlight was a hole-in-the-wall restaurant that had the best fried catfish. Because of our schedule we had that catfish for breakfast. Twice.
