Monterey Bay Aquarium
The Monterey Bay Aquarium was a pretty good experience. We decided to drive there from San Francisco (2/2.5 hour drive). The prices were a bit high. It’s definitely an above average museum. One deficiency though, is the complex and confusing layout. You don’t know if you’ve already visited one …

When the taxi …

Sea Wind Boracay Island

Phuket’s Best Beaches
Phuket Island, pronounced poo-get, is found on the western side of Thailand, surrounded by the jewel toned water of the Andaman Sea. As Thailand’s second biggest island, it’s been on the tourist trail for sometime and that means two things, over priced and crowded. But not to …
Miami

Oak Alley Plantation Vacherie Lousiana

There is a network of National Sea Life Centres around the United Kingdom, but the one I am reviewing in this piece is the one in Birmingham, which is therefore very nicely situated in the middle of the country. I think this is an advantage for two reasons - …

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 …
Vienna Travel
