 Maybe it’s touring the Colosseum, or walking along the Great Wall of China. Maybe it’s finally seeing the world from the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, or floating 1,400 feet below sea level in the Dead Sea. Most of us have at least a short list of the places we want to see before we die – the so-called “bucket list”. Whatever the state of your list, it’s never too late to start checking off those can’t-miss destinations.

To get you started, we’ve built the ultimate travelers’ bucket list – the most up-to-date collection of places you shouldn’t miss in 2020.

Traveling for Two: Advice for Pregnant Vacationers

Schlepping bags through an airport and long car rides in an automobile are not the most memorable aspects of anyone's vacation -- and if you already happen to be carrying a little extra baggage these days because you're pregnant, those memories may be all you will remember unless you plan your trip well.

You could be in the uncomfortable position of burning through your savings at a manic rate with no income. 3.
