Travel Reviews
Panglao Island, Bohol
Panglao Island of Bohol is for me one of the most dramatic and romantic place any traveler could ever imagine! It is situated in the far-end part of the beautiful province of Bohol–one of the tourist destination places in the Philippines.
Going …
Duke Energy Children’s Museum
I absolutely loved the Duke Energy Children’s Museum in Cincinnati, Ohio. We just called it the Cincinnati Children’s Museum but I guess it has some sort of corporate sponsor. In any case, it was wonderful and my almost three-year-old daughter had a blast.
I do not remember how …
A & O City Taxi
This is a taxi cab company that I used for the first time when I was running late for school on a day during finals week. On a normal day I would go to the college campus in New Rochelle and take the school shuttle bus to the campus …
Apo Island
Last year, I had the best 12-day vacation with my friends at Dumaguete Negros Oriental, Philippines. This week is our first year anniversary of that experience. I can still vividly remember the fun, excitement and sheer joy of having a peaceful and quite time with friends and without the …
Scarborough Bluffs in Toronto, Canada
The Scarborough Bluffs were named after the famous chalk hills in Scarborough, England by Elizabeth Simcoe, wife of the first lieutenant governor of Upper Canada. But these days, everybody who’s familiar with this place loves to call it simply as Bluffer’s Park.
As such, the term conjures the image …
Llandudno Pier, Llandudno, Wales
The seaside resort of Llandudno on the north coast of Wales is well known (and in my opinion deservedly so) for its delightful, and slightly old-fashioned, holiday atmosphere, making it perfect for families. One of the things that contribute greatly to this feel is the town’s traditional Victorian pier, …
Bealach na Ba pass, Scotland
There is a sign positioned prominently at the junction on the A896 road where the Bealach na Ba pass to Applecross branches off at the hamlet of Tomapress. It is not the usual type of road sign with nothing more than a destination and a mileage figure - no, …
Beijing travel
f you haven’t been to China, this is the time to be there because of the 2008 Olympics! I went there 2 years ago and I must say, while some cities i’ve been to are a little dirty, I liked Beijing! I don’t know which lured me into falling …
Museum of Tropical Queensland Townsville Queensland Australia
On 16 October 2007, my sister and I also went to Museum of Tropical Queensland in Townsville Queensland. We were charged $8.00 for an entrance fee. The ground floor is where we pay the entrance charge and at the same time, since there was a gift shop there, I …
Anawangin Cove, Zambales
Anawangin Cove is one of the most beautiful and memorable places I’ve ever been to. It is a scenic 3-hour ride from Manila to Pundaquit. Upon arriving at the Pundaquit beach, it is another 30 minute boat ride to the Anawangin Cove.
Upon arriving in Anawangin, …

City of Wuhan, China
Wuhan is the capital city of Hubei province in China, and it consists of three districts. If you arrive by rail, it will be easy to get to the city by subway. But if you arrive by air, than taxi is the best choice as the airport is not connected …
Night Safari Singapore
We had our 7-day visit to Singapore and a close family friend of ours who happened to be our host suggested that we should see Night Safari. We arrived there early around 5:00 pm and to our dismay the show will not start until 6:00. Gosh we were not …
Benson KOA
Pulling into the Benson, Arizona KOA, my husband and are were unimpressed and uncertain if we really wanted to camp there for the night. It looked like it was in need of maintenance like paint and a little fix-up here and there but we decided to stay. …
Busch Gardens Williamsburg
I didn’t know that Busch Gardens Williamsburg was voted the world’s most beautiful theme park until one of the tour guides told us about it. This place is located in Williamsburg, Virginia and I went with my boyfriend and some of his friends. We were visiting Virginia …
Alamo NV travel
With reference to my title for this review (”Lord Of The Flies”, taken from the British film), you’ll not find any lost English children chasing wild boars or each other through Alamo, Nevada, but you may find the experience of visiting, or even traveling through, this hamlet nearly as …
Blomidon Provincial Park Campground
We have been camping here three times and we have enjoyed our stays for the most part. We find that it is a little more expensive than other parks when you do not get electric or water at your site, but we still have fun and would go back …

Universal Studio’s Halloween Horror Nights
Honestly I wish that I could give this a good review, but I’m afraid that I can’t.
The first time that I went to Universal Studio’s Halloween Horror Nights, it really was something to remember. It was the year that they had “The Director”. It was spectacular! As …
New Zealand
New Zealand is a very wonderful country and I really think that everyone should visit this fascinating, at the bottom of the planet country. There are just many things that one could get here and it is indeed far away from the rest of the world. So, …
Block Island, RI
One of the most fun things ever to do when I was living in Rhode Island was to plan to take the Block Island Ferry over to the island and spend the day there.
If I sound like a proud parent when I speak of this beautiful place, I apologize. …
Rothenburg
Filled with excitement I could not wait to go to the scenic town of Rothenberg. I don’t think I slept three winks the night before the trip. Rothenberg is a small city in Germany that is still surrounded by walls like a fortress of some sort. You can walk …
JanSport Ashland Series Waistpack
I was in the market to purchase a Waistpack so I decided to go with this one. JanSport is a very well known brand and that’s the reason why I decided to go with this one. I have to say that this thing certainly doesn’t disappoint and …
Champs-Elysees
The most famous street in the world was on the top of our list of things to see in Paris, but we were unsure of how to see it. Everyone we asked said that walking it, as opposed to taking a driving tour, is the only real way to …

Anyone who enjoys quaint little towns, vast amounts of art, crafty ideas, ma and pa widow shopping, and enjoying the fine delights of decadent foods would be sure to enjoy a stay at Lewes Delaware. Lewes sits directly before Rehobath Beach, Delaware and has become a notorious haven …
Lub-d Hostel, Bangkok
I would have to say that Lub-d Hostel is one that lives up to its tag lines. They used to have “Sweet Dreams” as their tag line but I guess they’ve changed it to “Everyone Leaves as a Friend.” Perhaps, one of my best experiences in terms of the …
Twycross Zoo
We took our two children who love animals to Twycross Zoo last week and had a great day and we will defiantly be returning there again. We arrived there at ten o clock and we left at about half past four. So we had a full day indeed.

Mokolodi Nature Reserve
This Nature Reserve is located a bit farther from the city of Gaborone, about 40 minutes drive from where I live. It is larger than the Gaborone Game Reserve and supposedly has more animals in it. The fees are not very cheap, about P 50 or $ 7 per …
Minnehaha Park
When we went to Minneapolis last December 2008, I wanted so bad to see the Minnehaha falls. I know that this 53-foot waterfall, limestone bluffs and river overlooks is marvelous on summer time when thousands and thousands of tourists admire it, but then I figure out that winter’s …
Linville Falls, Blue Ridge Mountain, North Caroline
Linville Falls is one of the many waterfalls located in North Carolina and in the Blue Ridge Mountains. While searching for famous or well known waterfalls in North Caroline, Linville Falls was one of the locations that came up in my searches.

sabino canyon, Arizona
