Amsterdam Tulip Museum
No trip to Holland would be complete without seeing tulips in some way, whether it is to take a bike ride through the tulip fields or to see a tulip garden or museum. While I would not really call the Amsterdam Tulip Museum a museum on the scale …
Showboat Branson Belle
We get season passes to Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri yearly, so we try to get there at least four or five times a year. One thing we had never done was take a dinner cruise on the Showboat Branson Belle. We had thaught this was more of …

Jim Beam Distillery
The Jim Beam Distillery is one of the main tourist sites in the state of Kentucky. They offer a tour, a video, and a bourbon tasting, all for free.
Truthfully, though, I was disappointed by my visit there. I was hoping for a tour of the distillery itself, but …
Arbroath Abbey, Scotland

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 …
Sands Holiday Centre
If you fancy a get-away-from-it-all break, you may be surprised at the location I am going to suggest. In early summer, most people would head off to the sunnier spots in Europe and find something cheap in Spain or France, perhaps. They would expect decent weather, of course, which …
Longleat House and Safari park
My family and I had such a fantastic day out when we visited Longleat Safari Park down in Warminster Wiltshire. Our 3-year-old son loves animals and Longleat offers so many different animals, which he absolutely loved, his little face was lit up all day long.
At Longleat …
Samsonite space saver bags
I always loved travelling and to make all my travel experiences a memorable one, I would leave no stone unturned. Since travelling for long journeys required an equally long list of necessities, the problem I would face was accommodating them in as many less suitcases as possible. This would …
Waipio Valley
Waipio Valley is a beautiful black sand beach which requires 4 wheel drive to get to. The valley is located in Honoka’a on the Hamakua coast of the Big Island. This beach is amazing with a 50 foot waterfall you can hike to in the back of the valley. …
Fox Hill Campground
There are several campgrounds in this area and this is one of our favorites. The campground is a bit busy during mid season, but I could not disagree more. The quiet atmosphere they write about must be when everyone is sleeping. If you want lots of …
Arlington National Cemetery
The Arlington National Cemetery is both a wonderful and a sad place to visit. It was a very educational and learning experience to visit the Arlington National Cemetery. It truly broke my heart when I saw the memorial for the crew of the space ship Challenger. …
Intercontinental, Sydney
Where is the Intercontinental Hotel? Well, the Intercontinental Hotel, Sdyney is located at 117 Macquarie St Sydney NSW 2000, Australia, a prime location because it is very near the Harbour area. It is a top of the line hotel and very luxurious, but you can expect an expensive price …
Tour of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

Quebec downtown area
I go here practically every summer � and in fact, most Canadians have gone at least a couple times in their lives. It�s a really popular vacationing spot though I don�t know why because there�s not a lot about it that�s special. I mean I guess it�s interesting to …
Canadian-US National Park Roadtrip: North Cascades-Jasper-Banff-Glacier

St. Augustine Visitor Information Center, St. Augustine, Florida

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 …
Diamond Head Volcano in Oahu, Hawaii
The first mistake I made when visiting Diamond Head Volcano in Oahu, Hawaii was bringing my 10 month old daughter. The hike is about a mile and a half straight up. I think there is close to 200 steps to get to the top. I brought …

Jamestown, Tennessee is my little quaint hometown where I live. Every one here knows each other by name and if they don�t they will get to know ya if ya know what I mean. This town is the type of place where the movies, the bowling alley, and …
Paris Advice
Paris, the capital of France, is a beautiful, romantic city with so much to see and do. Take along comfortable, strong shoes as you will do a lot of walking as you explore this city. The city’s metro system is convenient to use but it can be quite dirty …
Pioneer Village
I absolutely enjoyed my visit to the Pioneer Village in Minden, Nebraska. This place is a huge collection of Americana, full of wonder and history. As it is often advertised, it’s a living history and not just a museum or old west grouping of buildings.
Pioneer Village was …
Forbidden Caverns, Sevierville, TN
When I first went to North Carolina, I visited my first cavern in the USA and it was a great experience. I couldn’t wait to try different cavern systems around the country and even the world. Searching under the very surface itself held a great mystery and sense of …
Devils Lake North Dakota
Devils Lake is the largest natural lake in North Dakota covering approximately 100,000 acres and a small city of 8000 people named after it. I went there for a two week electrician course with the army national guard in 1998. This was the first time I had ever been …

In November I took my son’s boy scout troop on a hike out at Picket State Park. We decided to do the Hidden Passage Trail because it was ten miles and the boys are working on their hiking merit badge. Most of the boys were dropped off by …
Golden Bay, New Zealand
I’ve been to almost all of the South Island’s beaches in New Zealand. Golden Bay by far has some of the nicest and remotest beaches I have seen. These include Tata, Wharariki Beach, Pohara, Farewell Spit and Ligar Bay. The best I’ve seen, even through it involes a 20 …

Lani Kai Beach Park
Lani Kai Beach is one of the most gorgeous beaches on this planet. It is just too bad that it is such a narrow stretch of sand lined with homes with very little room to accommodate all of its admirers at the same time. This beach is …
Cebu
Of all the places in the Philippines, Cebu is probably my least favorite place to visit. And I dread going there every month for work. You would never catch me going there for a vacation either. I don’t exactly know when I started hating this place, because it didn’t …
Elan Valley Visitor Centre, Wales
The Elan Valley, to the west of the small market town of Rhayader in mid-Wales, has an interesting and controversial history. The reservoirs which so many tourists - including me - now come to see every year are by no means natural lakes, but were created deliberately and artificially …
Kenneth Cole Messenger Bag
I got this bag last month as a Christmas present and am very impressed.
