Underdown County Park
There is a place north of Merrill called the Underdown. It is such a versatile spot. You can camp, ride you horse, swim, ATV, bike, hike and whatever. It is way back on a glacial park of Northern Lincoln County.
I have gone horseback riding up there …
Palawan travel
It’s still considered the most peaceful and secluded vacation hotspot in the Philippines. I’m lucky because I get to travel a lot with my family and friends. Palawan isn’t really a place to go if you don’t have much money. First the airfare is quite expensive, and second the …
Crandon Park Beach
When you think of Miami most people think of Miami Vice, South Beach with all the old Neon Signs, and palm trees. These are all great aspects of Miami and are part of why Miami has become such a desitnation spot.
I will tell you about a local secret that …
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 …

Maple Valley Campground, Pewamo, MI
We have been camping for many years with our family and friends. We live in Michigan where we have long cold winters, so once the warm summer months come around, we love to be outside. Michigan has a large variety of campgrounds, and we have tried a lot …

Bensheim within the Odenwald (Germany)
(Note: Some of the locations/sites are in German—”the spellings are therefore correct.)
Very charming travel sight-seeing opportunities exist if you just allow your mind and spirit to open up to them. Terrific back country opportunities are very rewarding; however, you need to know, first, where it is they …

Fresno, CA
Fresno, CA hasn’t always gotten the best rep considering that this city seems to give us some pretty bad stories from time to time. And I honestly don’t know if it’s the safest place in the whole world but whatever it all works out in the end right. I …
Minesview Park
Crowded, noisy, dirty and hot; just like any other flea market. There’s absolutely nothing special about this place, except that it attracts hundreds of tourists everyday. The items are sold at an inflated rate. Woven rags you can buy for 50 pesos in the market is sold for 100 …
The City of Gyeongju, South Korea
Far before we went to Korea, we had planned to visit this city because it accommodates historical sites those centuries old. Gyeongju is located 280 km to the south east of Seoul. This city is not big but fun to visit as there are many tourist spots around and …

King Tut Exhibit Cairo Museum

Cabo San Lucas
I have heard several people rave about Cabo San Lucas especially when they knew I was going there. I was excited with anticipation about my trip. Maybe this was the problem I expected too much. I was very disappointed. As soon as I arrived, I was bombarded by local …
Beijing Metro
An advocate of public transportation, I happened to be in Beijing and decided to stray away from the common medium of taxi riding and try the metro.
Everytime you’re in a new city, you should definitely try the metro system out, if it’s available. The metro in Beijing was …
Morganton NC
Morganton, North Carolina is a middle sized town in my opinion. It is probably best known for its mental health hospital Broughton. I knew a couple of people who were committed to the Broughton mental hospital once. We took my husband’s friend cigarettes and snacks a couple of …
