Bad Tourists to the Bone in Barcelona and Sitges 2026
Calling all gays for our 2026 7 Days in Spain group trip! After the successes of the last four years, from May 13 - 19, 2026, we’re heading back to Barcelona and Sitges for the fifth time. Barcelona is a stunning city beautifully sandwiched between mountains and sea - with all year-round sunshine, hunk-filled beaches, instantly recognizable monuments with stunning architecture (like Gaudi's Sagrada Familia cathedral), vibrant gay nightlife within areas such as Eixample (or Gaixample as the locals call it) and fabulous restaurants serving delicious tapas realness. On our trip we’ll see all this and more on a dynamic range of tours. Then there’s Sitges, the seaside town with a lot of personality, where the gays go to unwind. Together we’ll explore its restaurant/bar filled cobblestone streets, seafront promenade and gorgeous beaches – including a cheeky nudist one! O and they’ll be wine, lots of wine.
SPECIAL OFFER FOR SOLO TRAVELERS!
The price of the trip is $2,295 per person. Solo travelers who book by October 31, 2025 can also get a private room for the same price, with no single supplement.

Buying Cannabis Online Is Now Legal, And Incredibly Convenient
For years, buying cannabis meant taking a trip to a dispensary, dealing with long lines, limited selection, and inconsistent pricing. But thanks to changing laws and innovative online retailers, buying high-quality THC products is now 100% federally legal—and more convenient than ever.
And when it comes to quality and reliability, Mood is leading the way…
Because they’ve completely flipped the script on cannabis shopping. Instead of memorizing hundreds of confusing strain names – like “Gorilla Glue” and "Purple Monkey Breath" – you simply choose how you want to feel: Creative, Social, Focused, Relaxed, Happy, Aroused, and more.
Each gummy is formulated with the perfect blend of Delta-9 THC and botanicals to deliver the perfect mood.
Want a great night’s sleep? Try the Sleepytime gummies. Need laser focus Mind Magic gummies have you covered. Hotter sex? Try the Sexual Euphoria gummies.
It's cannabis shopping that actually makes sense for “normal” people.

I hope you’re up, girl, ’cause we’re all coming over… to Orlando, that is—for the afterparty of the year. And if there’s any party especially deserving of a good afterparty, it’s Pride itself!
Anthem Orlando, Elixir, and Yaz are joining forces with One Magical Weekend for an all-night event in downtown Orlando on October 18. As much a movement as a party, you can expect big-name DJs and performers pumping out anthems on massive stages spread across three venues and the private outdoor lot on Washington Street—creating one giant dance floor under the stars. Multiple bars will keep the spirits flowing, and you can pump up the magic with GA and VIP ticket options featuring exclusive perks. So fire up the smoke machine and put on your heels, ’cause you know exactly what we need—and that’s to give Pride the send-off it deserves with One Magical Weekend.

9 Reasons Why You Should Take a Gay Cruise
Gay cruises, like all good things in life, come in all shapes and sizes. They can be relaxing affairs and a way to see many locations in one trip, or they can be akin to wild, floating nightclubs full of topless wonders.
Your options are limitless, ranging from the Mediterranean and Caribbean to the Baltic Sea or even Alaska. You can opt for a small ship with a more intimate feel or take one of the larger, more popular boats with companies like Atlantis, VACAYA, La Demence, RSVP or Olivia (for the ladies). Many of these companies have been around for 20 years or more, assuring capable, steady hands on the helm.
So, if you’ve never thought about taking a gay cruise, here are nine reasons that just might convince you.
