L.A. Travel & Adventure Show is coming to town ! **GIVEAWAY** **UPDATED with Celebrity List !**

Who doesn't love travel and adventure !?

It's funny that I ask that since I notice a decline in the adventure side and increase in travel side of myself since children. 

If you had asked me 8 years ago to sky dive or jump off a cliff into the ocean, I would have been ready for that opportunity in a moments notice !

These days, since children, it is harder for me to say yes to the adventure and I lean more to the travel side of things. I will totally travel to the beautiful empty plains that my friends will land on when sky diving and enjoy the view from the ground !

I have a lot of younger in laws and they are all about the thrill of the adventure while I love to enjoy the travel . So what a more perfect way to soak it all in than the L.A Travel and Adventure Show !!!
