Travel

OK - I"m doing this. It's a new Amazon service and you have to request an invitation. I did--and now I'm virtually going to Prague this Sunday morning at 7 am. Really; I am. It's a live-streamed tour of old town Prague - with live tour guides that you talk to as you "walk" along the streets. I'm open for adventure--even if it is virtual. So....we'll see. Anybody else trying this?

No.  I've already travelled to most of those places.

I did discover by accident Amazon Overstock.

I haven’t heard of this, but sounds interesting. I hope you come back and comment on the experience.

What is Amazon Overstock @Mz iMac , pray tell?

@eddyandme   "Amazon overstock outlet store"

Exactly like the Overstock website.  Items that Amazon has too many of.  Amazon sells them at a steep discount.

The only things I got so far (delivered yesterday).......

6 pk fleece leggings - $19 - total

4 tunic length thick fleece Hanes sweatshirts -  $6 each

2 prs of Levi jeans - skinny & straight leg - $10 each

This weekend I will be checking out the "electronics" section.

Thanx, @Mz iMac , I'm gonna love that, love that a lot!!!!

@Goldengate8361 @I personally haven't heard of it. But what a great idea for those of us that are missing traveling.  I was thinking the other day that I have nothing to talk about (when I call family); no one has anything new to discuss. You are one of the few people that can say they had a new fun adventure this year!  Bonus: no jet lag and you don't have to pack 😀

Bon Voyage!

Right now you are touring, but I do hope you come back and report on your experience.

I would consider doing this since I hate flying, so will never see far away places.

I'm excited for you!

@Mz iMac   Could you be more specific on how I find Amazon Overstock.  Do I go to Amazon's main page and type in overstock?  I do see something that comes up as 'clearance', is that the same thing?

It was fantastic!!! It was just me and the tour guide (they call them host). So, it is very personal.....It was like talking to a girlfriend in real time. Example of how this works....I didnt see many people on the sidewalks wearing masks...so I asked about tge virus in Prague, etc which was great to be able to do. Amazon makes tbe technology incredibly easy and the connection was surprisingly good. it was 7 am in Nashville and 2pm in Prague. The screen comes with camera, too, so you can take photos as you virtually walk along. I liked it so much, i signed up for another tour and I chose the same time next week (you get to choose a day and time). I highly recommend Amazon Explore. While it is only by invitation right now, I bet you could request an invitation.
