Whistle Stop Gallery
Admittedly, there is not much to see on a trip via car from Prince George, BC and Jasper, Alberta on the Yellowhead Highway, except for the sometimes spectacular scenery and occasional wildlife. Certainly, there are no important points of interest or fine dining establishments. However, on a recent trip, …
Royal Ontario Museum
My favourite museum in Canada is the Royal Ontario Museum, and although I visited it years ago, I was looking forward to seeing it as an adult. Although I missed the —˜Dead Sea Scrolls’ exhibit by a few weeks, this most recent visit was enjoyable, educational and as usual, …
Athens Greece
I do agree with Nicholas: Athens is a beautiful city and you can easily spend three days or more there, still you have not seen everything there.

The Mark Twain Room at the Buffalo and Erie County Public …

The Children’s Museum Hartford CT

Tulsa Zoo
I love the Tulsa Zoo, and I have been to the Maryland Zoo and Disney’s Animal Kingdom and several other big zoos. The Tulsa zoo is kind of hard to find so I won’t be able to post directions, but the couple of times we went MapQuest gave great …
Fort Hamilton Bermuda
