Old Town Portrait Shop, Kissimmee, Florida

Santa Lourdes
A visit to Saipan will not be complete if you do not visit the Shrine of Santa Lourdes. I came from a devout Catholic family, so I jump at every chance to see statues of the saints, the Virgin Mary and other religious artifacts when in other countries. It …
Croft Castle, Herefordshire, UK

The Pros and Cons of Interstate 95
On all our trips to Florida, I-95 has loomed ahead as the most practical route. It may have a bad reputation for traffic upsets, but on our last trip down to St. Augustine, I-95 was an exceptionally pleasant ride. The lanes are well-kept, and in some places the route …

Scarborough Bluffs in Toronto, Canada
The Scarborough Bluffs were named after the famous chalk hills in Scarborough, England by Elizabeth Simcoe, wife of the first lieutenant governor of Upper Canada. But these days, everybody who’s familiar with this place loves to call it simply as Bluffer’s Park.
As such, the term conjures the image …

Vietnam
