Great Gifts for the Traveling Dad for Father's Day

Looking for a gift for the Traveling Dad for Father's Day.  We've curated a short list.

Battle Archives Historical Battle Maps:  This is one that is absolutely perfect for Dad, but you need some lead time to order it.  Get a framed version of the map.  When Dad hangs it in his office it is a conversation piece that will be talked about over and over again for years to come.  And in the conversation, Dad will say, "My son/daughter/wife/girlfriend bought me this for Father's Day and I love it".  What other gift can you buy that can be hung on the wall and on display?  It is the perfect Father's Day gift.   

Trip to the Normandy Invasion Beaches: You know he wants this gift, you know he will love this gift.  You know he will not buy it on his own.  So what do you do?  Just go and buy it for him. Again, this is another gift that is memorable and will be talked about for years to come. 

Cole Hahn Sneakers:  Give Dad a little style when he is on a small group tour to Ireland or maybe even traveling about in Norway

Passport Holder:  Always reliable, always inexpensive, always put to good use.  The Professor still has his leather passport holder his daughter bought him over 10 years ago.  Whenever he travels to Iceland on a small group tour for example, he thinks about what a nice gift it is and what a nice daughter he has.  Buy it. 

MotherLode Rolling Suitcase: About the last thing Dad is going to go out and buy himself is luggage.  So why don't you go and get good travel luggage for Dad on Father's Day?  He will love traveling with it and will thank you for it.
