Pham Ngu Lao Street, Saigon
Saigon is a pretty big city. Modern buildings are scattered almost everywhere. But they are not exactly what I wanted to see. As a tourist, I expected to see historical buildings, try local foods, and buy some souvenirs, etc. Thanks to Pham Ngu Lao St for its location as …
Indira Gandhi International Airport
It was the first time I visited India. The purpose of my visit was to join an international seminar in New Delhi and continued with a sight-seeing trip. I understand that entry visa to India is not necessary for those having service passports from certain countries including my country …
Lalaurie House French Quarter New Orleans Louisiana
The Lalaurie House or as most locals like to call it “the haunted house”. Now here’s why residents of the French Quarter still hurry past this otherwise beautiful building. When Madame Dolphin McCarty de Lopez Blanquette wed Dr. Louis Allure, it was her third marriage-she’d already been …
All Canadian Adventure Tour Niagara Falls
The All Canadian Adventure tour hosted by vacationsmadeeasy.com was not what I expected. The tour was given by a well informed tour guide who spent most of our time talking about the history of Niagara rather than allowing us to thoroughly enjoy each attraction. We covered 16 places in …
The Overland Track
What a wonderful place! Virtually untouched rainforest, wildlife, jagged mountains and peace!
I loved this trek, although at the time I hated it.
We went during the summer period which is highly recommended because of sometimes extreme unpredictable weather conditions and we still had every single type of weather imaginable. Be …
Reptile World Serpentarium, St. Cloud, FL
In all the years that we’ve been visiting Kissimmee and Orlando FL, driving over from Melbourne, we always pass the “Reptile World Serpentarium” in St. Cloud and my husband has always wanted to check it out, but we were always on the way to somewhere and it wasn’t a …

Bok Tower Gardens, Lake Wales,FL
From the time I was a child, I have regularly made visits to Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, FL. It’s considered to be a Sanctuary and I can’t think of a better way to describe it.

Boggy Creek Airboat Rides, Kissimmee, FL
One afternoon, last Summer, my husband and son decided they wanted to go find a place to do an Airboat Ride. It’s something they had often talked about doing because one of my son’s friends is married to someone who actually builds them for a living.
So, I went …

Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom Park
Merely mentioning Magic Kingdom Park brings back some of my happiest childhood memories. I don’t think there’s any place in the entire world that’s more magical than this Walt Disney wonder. It was my favorite vacation destination as a child, and even as an adult, if I …
Devil’s Coulee Dinosaur Heritage Museum
I finally went to a place I had wanted to go for some time, Devil’s Coulee, in Warner, in southern Alberta near the US border. I had read about the area for some time, and its main claim to fame was that it had some fossil beds where many …

Marathon Park Wausau WI

Magens Bay Beach

Navy Pier tourist attraction Chicago
