Icy you there! ๐Ÿ‘€โ„๏ธ

Bumper Cars on Ice at the Bryant Park Winter Village is back from January 9 - February 28, 2026!

Though Bumper Cars on Ice isnโ€™t a dog-friendly activity, you can definitely watch at the dog-friendly Bryant Park Winter Village. Cocoโ€™s dad stayed with Coco while I tried out my bumper cars driving skills. Itโ€™s so much fun! The inflatable bumper cars glide over the ice controlled by 2 joysticks. You can bump your fellow riders all you want and spin until youโ€™re too dizzy to drive. The only rule is not to bump into the divider between the bumper cars and ice skaters. Would you try Bumper Cars on Ice?

The Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park IS dog-friendly ๐Ÿถ. Aside from the famous 17,000 square foot outdoor ice skating rink โ›ธ๏ธ and Bumper Cars on Ice with a view of the Empire State Building, thereโ€™s curling lanes ๐ŸฅŒ, a food hall with a lot of delicious food and drink options, heated igloos and more.

The Bryant Park Winter Village is a pawfect outdoor option for dining with your dog during a winter trip to NYC. Coco adorably also kept an eye on me while I rode the Bumper Cars on Ice.

๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Bumper Cars on Ice at Bryant Park Winter Village is open January 9 - February 28, 2026. Tickets from $22 per rider for 10 minutes. Bumper Cars on Ice does sell out, so book your timed entry at least 1 week in advance online.

TRAVEL TIP: Wear flat, closed shoes. Heeled shoes arenโ€™t allowed. Only 1 rider per bumper car, no lap riders allowed. Kids have to be 7 years old and 42โ€ tall to ride. Plan around 1 hour for Bumper Cars on Ice. You book a 45-minute timed entry slot and will have a wait for your group.

We just wanted to say thank you! Coco is more loved than she will ever know. ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿพ

If you missed it, I shared on Story that Coco had gotten her paw stepped on pretty hard at the park Monday evening. It was an accident, but she cried in pain for a few minutes and was holding her paw up. After a few minutes, she did go back to wanting to play with her friends but she would still cry walking on it.

I took Coco to her vet first thing Tuesday morning. She had x-rays. Thankfully nothing was broken and the tendon showed in tact. Just some swelling in the tissue showed up.

Coco got an injection for pain, is taking medication for a week and - much to her displeasure - has to rest with no running, no ball and no playing with her friends for a week.

If only Coco knew just how many messages you all sent her wishing her a speedy recovery. More than I could even keep up with. So enjoy Coco giving you a woo as a thank you! ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ

Itโ€™s snow secret that Le Cirque de Gavarnie is one of the most beautiful hikes in the Pyrรฉnรฉes! โ„๏ธโ›„๏ธ๐Ÿฅพ

Le Cirque de Gavarnie is one of very few routes that dogs are allowed in the Parc national des Pyrรฉnรฉes. But luckily this 7.9 kilometer round trip hike to the Grande Cascade de Gavarnie is also one of the most gorgeous in the Pyrรฉnรฉes.

Though it was an absolutely freezing cold day with a high of just -5ยฐC (23ยฐF), the Cirque de Gavarnie hike was perfect for my first hike post ankle ligament reconstruction surgery. The 7.9 kilometer out and back hike only gains 226 meters of elevation

The entire valley gives you a striking view of the Grande Cascade de Gavarnie and walls and peaks rising up to 3000 meters high, but reaching the Hรดtel du Cirque et de la Cascade for the up close view of the 423 meter high waterfall - higher than the Eiffel Tower - is well worth going the distance.

The Grande Cascade de Gavarnie is impressive, even frozen in winter. The 10,000 year old cascade waterfall is the tallest in mainland France and one of the tallest in Europe. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.

The best chocolat chaud in Toulouse! ๐Ÿซ

It was a sโ€™more-t move to open a NYC inspired gourmet sโ€™mores hot chocolate cart. owner and creator Julien Lejeune was inspired to create his own gourmet hot chocolate recipes with toasted marshmallow on the cup rim after visiting NYC, and decided we absolutely needed this concept in France.

We couldnโ€™t agree more! We never made it to the original Glace in NYC to try to the viral sโ€™mores hot chocolate. But we made sure to track down Orium during our visit to Toulouse.

Orium offers homemade chocolat chaud with a toasted marshmallow rim and topped with a generous scoop of homemade chantilly cream and various toppings.

I tried the tiramisu and dog dad tried specaloos. Both were delicious! Coco definitely approved of the homemade chantilly cream.

Youโ€™ll usually find Orium on Rue de Metz in Toulouse Centre from 13h30 until heโ€™s sold out for the day. Follow Orium on Instagram for location and hours.

Now to convince Julien to move to Bordeauxโ€ฆ

Letโ€™s kick off the new year with an introduction! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ ๐Ÿพ

Weโ€™re Jennifer and Coco. Welcome! Bienvenue!

Iโ€™m a 45 year old American from Pennsylvania, went to UNLV and lived in Las Vegas. I spent 6 years living in Phoenix before moving to Italy in 2009 with my Ragdoll cat, Angel, and my mixed breed dog, Emma.

I worked remotely from Italy for a university back in Arizona for 5 years, while also building a travel blog (focused on luxury, wine & gastronomy, and soft adventure) from hobby to full time career.

In 2015 I left my university job, and focused on my blog full time. In 2016 I moved from Italy to Bordeaux, France. Meant to only be a year long stint while the US Air Force took dog dad to South Korea for a year, I fell in love with Bordeaux and found the place that finally felt like I fit.

Spoiler alert, but I ended up staying in Bordeaux. Dog dad was less than 3 years away from retirement after 20 years of service. I started a second blog focused on Bordeaux and the Nouvelle Aquitaine region, while hopping back and forth between Bordeaux and Cambridge, England where dog dad was living. And in 2019 dog dad retired, and we bought an apartment of our very own in Bordeaux.

Coco is a now 5 year old Samoyed girl from Bourgogne, France.

I met and first discovered the Samoyed breed in my neighborhood in Italy, after googling โ€œfluffy white dog that looks like a polar bearโ€. It was a while (more than 3 years) after Emma passed that I felt ready for another dog, but I knew I wanted a Samoyed.

All my research about Samoyeds and following several on Instagram could never prepare me for life with a Samoyed. They are hilarious, high energy, loud, loving little assholes who will steal your heart with the Sammy smile and wrap you around their little demanding paws.

Here on our little space of Instagram, we show you that travel with a big dog is absolutely possible and inspire you with personally researched and approved by us dog-friendly destinations, activities, restaurants and experiences.

If youโ€™re new here, weโ€™re so happy you found us.
And if youโ€™ve been here awhile, thank you for staying! โ™ฅ๏ธ

How do we travel with a big dog like Coco? We have an EXHAUST-ive list! ๐Ÿš—๐ŸšŠโ›ด๏ธ๐Ÿš‡๐Ÿš–โœˆ๏ธ

๐Ÿš— We most frequently travel with a big dog by car. Since dogs over 8kg (including the carrier) canโ€™t fly in cabin on commercial flights, road trips are now we travel to most of our destinations.

We most often travel with our own car, but do need to rent cars occasionally., and are some of the most pet-friendly car rental companies with no additional pet-fees (unless you return the car excessively dirty) and no restrictions on how your pet travels in their rental cars.

โ›ด๏ธ We use car ferries to travel to islands like Malta, Corsica and Sardinia. is one of our favorite ferry companies, making long journeys comfortable with pet-friendly cabins. Some other pet-friendly ferries include,,, and.

๐ŸšŠA lot of Western Europe is very well connected by train and dogs of all sizes can typically ride trains in countries like France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and the UK. Pet policies like if a pet ticket is required and if your dog on a leash must be muzzled vary from country to country and even by train company, so always very the pet policy for every leg of the train trip.

๐Ÿš‡ We use all forms of public transportation to get around cities. Public transportation pet policies vary greatly from city to city, so donโ€™t always expect youโ€™ll be able to use public transport.

๐Ÿš• Occasionally we need to use taxis or car services to get around, such as getting to/from a train station or airport with luggage. offers Uber Pet in a number of cities, but we find that itโ€™s not always the most reliable. We like G7 in Paris, which allows you to book a pet-friendly taxi. In NYC, regular taxis will take pets at their discretion or you have pet-friendly services like. We have also used, a car service available in over 50 countries, and offers a pet-friendly option.

Where would you love to travel most with your dog?

Your dog doesnโ€™t have to be a small dog to travel with them. Though obviously much easier when you can fly all over the world with small dogs in the cabin, donโ€™t leave your big dogs behind. Plan that road trip! ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿถ

My hoomans have road tripped to more than 20 countries with a โ€œbigโ€ dog (40+ lb / 20+ kg). From the incredible archaeological sites of Italy to the amazing natural wonders of Malta, there is so much you can do and experience with your floofy best friend.

No matter if itโ€™s country hopping around Europe or state hopping around the USA, donโ€™t let size and the non-inclusive airlines deter you. I promise a road trip with your dog with be a memorable experience youโ€™ll treasure FURever.
