The Penguin Plunge Jamestown RI
On January 1st at exactly 12 Noon, there is no place I’d rather be than at Mackerel Cove in Jamestown, RI to witness hundreds of people jump into the icy cold waters of Narragansett Bay. They come in swimsuits, some bikinis and some with bow ties and top …
Namibia Twyfelfontein Rock Art
I visited this UNESCO World Heritage Site some months back while we were doing a 3 week tour of Namibia. The roads leading to Twyfelfontein are dirt roads and they are bad especially the last few kilometres. If one is not careful, travelling at high speeds would be …
Hoffman Lake Campground, Warsaw, IN
Our family has enjoyed camping for years. We have been to various campgrounds throughout Michigan. Recently my husband’s company had to do a job in Indiana, which isn’t too far from us, and instead of him leaving for a week and staying at a hotel, we decided to pull …
Banaue Rice Terraces
I grew up knowing that the Banaue Rice Terraces is the eighth (8th) wonder of the world. Back then it was a grueling twelve-hour journey over the most horrible road and made only by the most adventurous. I only saw pictures of them and even then, I swore to …
Night Safari Singapore
We spent our vacation on Singapore, its our first time to travel abroad, and our choice of destination is singapore. I’ve heard of it many times from my boss, and read reviews from the internet and from books. It pictures singapore as one of the top travel destinations. I …
Lead Pass, Quito, Ecuador
Lead Adventures one pass is a great way to experience Ecuador independently while having access to expert advise; the Lead Pass takes away a lot of confusion by providing prearranged travel and accommodation while offering the flexibility of choosing what you what to do and how long you want …
Pickett to Peters Mountain End to End Trail
I live in Fentress County, Tennessee which is what I consider to be the back gate to the Big South Fork. That’s why having the Big South Fork in my back yard practically makes it easier to use it as a playground for our local boy scout troop when …
Sargeant Museum
I wanted to review the new Sargeant museum in Louisa, Virginia.
I am a new resident of Louisa County and had been considering working in the museum as a docent. I am an amateur history student. One thing when visiting the museum you will be …
Dachau
Dachau is a concentration camp in Germany that we went to visit while there in 2001. However on the particular day we went there to visit it was closed. The Sergeant that scheduled the trip failed to realize they were closed this particular day a week. We …
Waterbom Park
I went to Bali on my honeymoon. While there, we visit a water park called Waterbom Park. It was a so so water park, I must say. Sure, they got those slides, big pools, and they have spa services. They don’t charge much for the …
Ubud, Bali
There is no McDonald’s there, just a heads-up. But they have a brand spanking new Starbucks, if you really need it. Ubud is the headquarter of artists in Bali, and there is no beach there. The downtown and its area are pretty small and you can explore them on …
Skyline Drive in Virginia
Driving along the mountains in Skyline Drive in Virginia is one of the most breathtaking places I have ever been. Skyline Drive is in the Shenandoah National Park. We drove in one side and out the other. We stopped at nearly every stopping point to see the different views …
Tourist spots in Yangon, Myanmar
Yangon has no longer been the capital of Myanmar since they relocated it to Naypyidaw in 2006. But apart from Mandalay and Bagan, it is still the main tourist destination. I spent four nights and found that this city is worth to visit. I did not join any guided tour; …
sabino canyon, Arizona
Wether it was named after a plant, a horse, a person, or simply because of the magnificent rust colored boulders that plague the area, sabino canyon has something to offer for everyone. Waterfalls run rampant throughout the area and a trolly takes people up the canyon every 30 minutes …
Arc de Triomphe-Paris
When I was in Paris, we timed our visit to the city’s symbolic and famous Arc de Triomphe so that we could walk along the Champs-Elysees and end up at the Arc, which is located at the very end of the huge street. We had also read that there …
Newport Rhode Island
We first visited Newport on a whim; we wanted to go on a family vacation, but we were tired of simply going “down to the shore”. After a while, as my sister and I grew older it became dull with not much to do should one of us …
Biodome De Montreal in Montreal
My grandfather took me to this place, while we were traveling in Quebec. The best way that I can think to describe it is that it’s an indoor zoo, split off into four sections, each of which is specifically designed to mimic the animal groups natural habitat as …

In this review I want to present you a Saline from Romania.

Sinbad’s Balloons
If you arrive in Luxor about dawn, either on an Egypt Air Flight or on the night train from Cairo, and look across the Nile to the West Bank,you’ll see a sight that is pure magic: a whole fleet of brightly colored balloons, their baskets full of early risers, …
Shravanabelagola
Shravanabelagola is a place in Karnataka, India. This is a beautiful place and thronged by visitors. Majority of the visitors are from various parts of India. The most interesting thing in Shravanabelagola is a tall statue, the height of which is more than 150 metres. This statue is sacred …
Acadia National Park
I am from the Midwest so the east coast is an unexplored area for me. When I was recently there, it reminded me somewhat of Wisconsin. My husband and I spent a week at Blackwoods campgrounds. This campground is surrounded by big woods with large pines …

Porec Croatia
Porec is a beautiful small town on the west side of Istrian coast. I go there very often during the summer because there’s always something going on. The old town of Porec is actually a peninsula so you are surrounded by water wherever you go. It is really difficul …
Siete Pecados, Coron, Palawan
Siete Picados is one of the most visited place in Coron. I think this is the most famous snorkeling spot, and once you get there, you’ll immediately know why. You don’t even need to go down the boat to see the fishes, you can feed them right then and …
Cathedral of Zagreb
While I have seen quite a few magnificent and old cathedrals throughout the world in my travels, and some of them are very similar, the Cathedral of Zagreb has some unique features that I found very interesting when I visited Croatia. We got a map of the city from …
Bathtub Beach on Hutchinson Island
As a native Floridan, I love the water and the beach. Don’t like sharks, thou. Jaws ruined me for life and given the recent sharks attacks in the Red Sea, I’m not looking to really swimming in open water any time soon. But this one beach my family and …

Morrow Mountain State Park is located at 49104 Morrow Mountain Road in Albemarle, North Carolina. Morrow Mountain offers hiking, camping, swimming, fishing and boating. We went in August of 1998 for an afternoon picnic with our friends Donna and Cassie. We started with a short hike of about a …
Visiting Guadalajara in Mexico
I recently visited the city of Guadalajara in Mexico and must admit that I fell in love. I was born in that city, but moved away when I was very young, so I grew up hearing of how beautiful it was. Now that I finally had a chance to …
Cadrezzate
Cadrezzate is a little Italian town on the southern end of Lago Maggiore. It is a pretty nice place to live due to the fact that it is nice and quiet and very close to the lake itself. Just about a 5 to 10 minute walk (depending on where …
Bluegreen Club 36 Las Vegas Getaway
Bluegreen getaway’s Club 36 resort at Las Vegas came to my list at Las Vegas by a true deal which offered three nights for just fifty dollars. I am not sure whether this place truly qualifies to be called as a resort, but I enjoyed each and every bit …
Robinson Foodcourt
The location of Robinson department store accommodating the food court is pretty good, very close to Saphan Thaksin MRT station, Sathorn or Oriental pier of Chao Phraya River, and some hotels including Elegance Suit Hotel where I stayed. From my hotel it is about 10 minutes on foot, and …
King of Prussia PA
So you are looking for an area to visit that obtains Pennsylvania’s best shopping, food, and fun for the entire family? King of Prussia is the way to head. Not only does King of Prussia obtain one of PA’s largest, and perhaps overwhelming malls within the state, but …
St. Augustine, Florida
I thought it was strange that I had been born and raised in Florida, but I had never visited the Nation’s oldest city. St Augustine is the nation’s oldest city and it’s only a few hours from where I live. So, I asked my husband if we could spend …
Northwest Airlines
We recently had to fly out east to attend my wife’s grandmother’s funeral. Since her death was sudden, we had to make our travel arrangements last second.
We ended up booking our flights on Northwest Airlines (traveling from Madison, WI to Elmira, NY).
While out flight wasn’t terrible, I think, if …
Abrams Falls, Smokey Mountains National Park
When it comes to the Smokey Mountains National Park, it is a very beautiful place. Yet, sometimes in the most beautiful places on Earth, it doesn’t feel like a vacation. Yes, I was in awe at the beauty of the park and nature in its truest form, but sometimes …
Sevilla Spain
Sevilla is another nice area that I have been to in Spain and this is a very nice city with lots of people around. I consider it to be a very romantic city in the world and that includes Paris too. There are just lots of nice …
Hammonasset Beach State Park Connecticut
Most people never think of beaches when Connecticut is mentioned. I know I certainly didn’t. Just last weekend I visited Hammonasset Beach in Madison, Connecticut. It’s a great beach, one of thebest I have been to in the north.
I lucked out and went on a very …
Munden Point Park in Virginia Beach VA
Munden Point Park is a hidden jewel in the public park system of Virginia Beach, Virginia. Somewhat off the beaten path, this beautiful park is unknown by many locals as well as most tourists, but it is well worth the 15-minute drive from the Pungo section of Virginia Beach. …
The Seattle Space Needle
Last summer I went to Seattle to see a Mariners baseball game, and decided to do some sight seeing while I was down there. One of the many places I went to was the Space Needle - the towering, stylish tower that is deep in downtown Seattle.
Once I …
Melbourne Australia Travel
Melbourne. One of the largest cities in Australia, a great place to travel? I would think so. I have been there in total of two times in the past three years. If visiting from another state in Australia, taking a flight there would be the easiest and fastest, you …
The Mokulua Islands Windward Oahu
The Mokuluas, the island furthest to the left in particular, is a great place to spend the day. We love to have kayaks brought to a special launching spot in Lani Kai by the local kayak company (Two Good Kayaks in Kailua Town by Don Quixote’s - it …
Wet ‘n’ Wild, Orlando, FL
I’m always up for a Water Park with my family. I’ve been to a good deal of them all over the Country. One that I’ve been to repeatedly is right here in Central Florida. I’m talking about “Wet ‘n’ Wild” in Orlando.
Wet ‘n’ Wild is a good place …
Universal Studios Hollywood
When we went to Orlando, Florida, we just visited Disney World. It was a very short trip that we were not able to go to Universal Studios. My husband has been there few years ago and he’s all praises with the place. So when we went to Los Angeles, …
Noah’s Ark waterpark
If you are from Wisconsin, you know they advertise the heck out Noah’s Ark. The best days to come down to the park are in the middle of the week early in the morning. The later it gets the longer the lines get! Oh my God, …
Williamsberg VA

Wild Cat Mountain State Park
This is an interesting part of Wisconsin’s Countryside. It seems to be a portion plopped in the middle of Wisconsin’s farming community. It is altogether different than the rest of the countryside. The local county roads twist back and forth around I don’t know how many miles …
Feast East Sesame Dressing
You have got to try this awesome dressing. First, I must admit that I am not a big sesame fan. I don’t like the seeds, and I usually don’t enjoy the dressings with the seeds in them, but this is an exception. Funny thing is that …
Yellow Line Skokie
I occasionally take yellow line from Skokie to Chicago if I want to get to downtown. Yellow line is small in all aspects - the trains only have 2 carts, and there are just 2 stops - Howard and Skokie Swift. There is plenty of parking available near the …
