Several years ago, we adopted a no-checked-bags philosophy for every plane trip possible. Not only does that give us immense flexibility for same-day flight changes, it also saves a ton of time. We no longer need to wait for bags at the carousel upon landing, which can add at least 30 minutes to a travel day. And most importantly, we […]
We’ve only lived through one full day of fall at this point, and it’s still a furnace outside. So, a vacation in the usually hot climate of Palm Springs, California may not be top of mind. But what if we enticed you with some early November dates? That’s a time in Palm Springs when it rarely gets above 80 degrees […]
Please bow your head, light a candle and get on your knees. Although that may sound like the formula for a sexy night of fun, instead we’re encouraging a moment of quiet reflection. Hell, you can even say one of those prayer things if you’re so inclined. All would be appropriate to commemorate the final VACAYA voyage of one Sister […]
It was barely yesterday that our livers finally dried out after going to the 15th annual Gay Wine Weekend this past July. So, by the time GrapeFest rolls around in two weeks, we’ll be ready to suck down some Sauvi B., pound some Pinot and chug-a-lug some Cabernet. Now celebrating the festival’s 40th year, Grapevine welcomes wine lovers from all […]
It was only a matter of time—and color us excited. Every color of the rainbow excited. This September, head to Austin for a brand-new festival of music, drag, film and art: The Big Queer Weekend. The four-day celebration has its official coming-out party on Thursday, September 24. The multi-venue event comes from some heavy hitters in the entertainment industry and […]
Doing nothing for Halloween scares the Baby Bejesus out of most gays. Luckily, we have trick-or-treat bagloads of options. Besides our own Dallas Halloween Block Party in the gayborhood (which takes place a week before Halloween) and the VACAYA Halloween takeover we just told you about last Travel Tuesday. Today, we present another option if you want to get out […]
The annual Dallas Halloween Block Party in the gayborhood always turns out the fun. Now imagine you preview your sexy/spooky look on the strip on Saturday, October 24, then jet off to Mexico the next day with your costume packed for an epic party in Riviera Nayarit. It’s entirely possible with the local block party not falling on actual Halloween […]
Some people rave about the Mile High Club. We prefer the Mile Deep Club. Unlike sex on an airplane, which always sounds cramped to us because it most likely has to happen in a lavatory, gentlemanly encounters on a cruise ship can be way more fun. Canoodling in the casino? BJs on your balcony? Masturbation in the muster station? As […]
Last night, we returned from Gay Wine Weekend in a cramped main-cabin seat for more than seven hours due to a weather closure at DFW, which prompted a reroute to Austin for fuel. The entire time, we could only dream of what it must be like to fly private. Well, next year, you’ll have the opportunity to see Africa in […]
Let’s get the bad news out of the way first: For the second year in a row, the delightful BenDeLaCreme and Jinkx Monsoon will be sashaying away from Texas. But there’s good news, of course! Just because they aren’t coming to the Lone Star State this year doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the merry mayhem of The […]
