Travel Reviews
The Holocaust Memorial Center.
This was a very enlightening and interesting museum. When you walk into it, you are walking into a replica of a Nazi concentration camp. Which is pretty powerful stuff. The museum has dioramas, tons of photographs, many oral accounts of what it was like to be …

Thomas Jefferson Memorial
Visiting the Thomas Jefferson Memorial was an emotional experience. Washington D.C. is just so full of historic places to go, places that America was essentially developed and expounded from. So many men, men we call great, and men who were great for their courage, are regaled there.
For …
Sky Train Mass Transportation System in Vancouver, Canada
Which city can boast that it can take you from its downtown core or from any of the city centers of its major suburbs, and whisk you to the airport all aboard a light rail system? From my last reckoning, only Vancouver!

Day Trips with The Biking Dutchman, Quito, Ecuador
Quite simply, for me, the prospect of biking around Ecuador is intimidating. The roads here are steep and crowded with traffic. The terrain that can be covered, Cotopaxi, Otavalo, and Pichincha Volcanoes, have elements that I wouldn’t be comfortable covering by myself. I have met those …
