Hanauma Bay Nature Reserve Oahu
Hanauma Bay is a really fun place to spend the day for visitors to the island of Oahu, especially if you have never snorkeled before. This is a great place for many reasons. Above all, the diverse species of marine life and the number of fish in …
Travelocity
Travelocity, well what can I say. It seems like a good idea and if done correctly it is. I have made several reservations through them and not one has been worth the hassle. One was made in Wichita, Kansas for a reasonable (not the cheapest) hotel. The pictures of …
Mary King’s Close, Edinburgh

Ocean’s in Glass Hawaii Souvenirs
This place is a neat little glass blowing shop in the same shopping center that the famous (but awful) Cholo’s Mexican Restaurant is located in. This adorable shop is kind of tucked in the back corner of this center, but don’t forget to stop here to browse the …
