Gibraltar travel
My husband, two children, my parents and I visit Gibraltar at least once a year; the reason for this is because we have such a great day out when we go there. There is so much to do and see in Gibraltar we have now done most things …
Rocky Mountains in British Columbia and Alberta, Canada
There’s something for everyone at the Canadian Rocky Mountains, or the Canadian Rockies for short. For starters, you can pick your own favorite mountain. Mine is Castle Mountain in the Jasper National Park area. I find it so bewitching as it looks like a castle hanging …

The Haunted Mansion, Liberty Square, Walt Disney World
The Haunted Mansion in Liberty Square at Walt Disney World, FL is one of the definite “Must Sees” no matter if you’ve seen it before or not. Yes, it’s that good! This ride has been there since Disney World opened in 1971 and yes I’ve been seeing it …
Cool Springs Campground
My family and I have been camping for years, and have enjoyed a variety of campgrounds. Most of them are pretty nice, but once in a while we come across one that we wouldn’t want to stay at again for one reason or another. I like campgrounds …
Penzance, England
Penzance, at the south-western tip of Cornwall, is perhaps a rather more remote location to many people in Britain than are some much more distant places such as Los Angeles and even Kuala Lumpur. It sometimes feels as though it takes longer to get to, as well! But a …
Joe Gibbs Race Shop
Joe Gibbs Racing was one of the places my best friend and I decided to visit when we took a road trip to Charlotte, North Carolina. I was a fan of Kyle Busch when he drove for another team and was eager to see his cars since changing to …
The Mayflower II, Plimouth Plantation, MA
While taking my home schooled kids on a class field trip of sorts for History, I took them for a two day trip to Plimouth Plantation and the surrounding area. I felt that seeing history and getting a feel for what it was like was better than pouring over …

Safari Park Vergel
As I actually live on the Costa Blanca, I have visited many so called attractions offered to holiday makers to this region. As an animal lover, I felt drawn to the Safari Park at Vergel, near Denia.
The Safari itself opens at 10am and is open every day. It …
Pickett to Peters Mountain End to End Trail
I live in Fentress County, Tennessee which is what I consider to be the back gate to the Big South Fork. That’s why having the Big South Fork in my back yard practically makes it easier to use it as a playground for our local boy scout troop when …

Fraumunster in Zurich
There is one site that I found extremely worthwhile and interesting when visiting Zurich Switzerland. However, before I begin my review let me just say I believe Zurich Switzerland is the place to stay if you have some “bucks to burn.” Zurich can still be a positive …
Canada in Winter
It is cold. Very very cold. If you don’t like cold, don’t come to Canada in the winter. It is a very, very cold place.
On the other hand, it is very pretty. With the snow and the trees and the skies can be just gorgeous. …
Shanghai Metro
I found myself in the middle of Shanghai with not nearly enough money to get back to my place of stay by taxi. So I decided to opt for the transportation of the masses: metro.
Clearly marked in all places so it’s not difficult to find, it’s cheap and …
River Walk San Antonio
The riverwalk is a popular tourist location in downtown San Antonio. It is a long river that runs through downtown with restaurants, lights, clubs, and people around the sides.

Albania travel
I had the opportunity to travel to Tirana, Albania in October 2008 while travelling with a friend. Neither of us knew much about Albania and had no idea what to expect. We soon found out that Albania is both a difficult and wonderful country to travel …
Mahe Island Seychelles
This was another beach holiday I like to remember. As we are in Africa at the moment, we felt that it would easier to go from this continent rather than from elsewhere. The flight from Johannesburg took only about 6-7 hours and for me, this was reasonable. We …
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park
What a majestic surprise awaited me when I recently decided to go to the Black Canyon National Park!

Laiya, San Juan, Batangas
Batangas is one of the most popular destinations during summer here in the Philippines, it’s our family’s number one vacation destination because of it’s proximity to the city. Our usual travel time is around 3 hours that is considering that we bring a private car. The last time I …
Duke Energy Children’s Museum
I absolutely loved the Duke Energy Children’s Museum in Cincinnati, Ohio. We just called it the Cincinnati Children’s Museum but I guess it has some sort of corporate sponsor. In any case, it was wonderful and my almost three-year-old daughter had a blast.
I do not remember how …
Liberty Hall Historic Site
During a trip through Kentucky, we decided to stop in the capital city Frankfort, and we were persuaded to make a stop at Liberty Hall Historic Site. A friendly local suggested we see this site after finding out I was a history buff and that I liked antiques, so we …

We chose Bungalow Bay because it …
Athens Greece
I do agree with Nicholas: Athens is a beautiful city and you can easily spend three days or more there, still you have not seen everything there.
The Acropolis is for every body who is coming for the first time to Athens the first stop. A few years ago I …

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!
This is a major kick …
Elvis Presley’s Graceland
I believe Graceland is said to be the #1 most visited place. It had been the White House, but since it’s closure to the public, Graceland is now holding that title.
It is a beautiful place, the landscaping is fabulous and the tour is good too. From across …

The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Mission Nombre de Dios,St.Augustine,FL
St. Augustine is America’s oldest city, full of mystery, intrigue, and beautiful places of contemplation. There are different feelings in different parts of the city; grandiose Victorian structures, modest colonial Spanish homes, and ancient stone fortifications. Visitors have a sense of wonder while traipsing these historic sites. Perhaps none …
Long Beach Airport
I am an avid flyer, taking a trip out of LA about once a month. I usually fly out of LAX, which is alright. I usually find that the employees are rude and obnoxious. They all seem to hate their job, to be impatient with all the flyers, and …
Museum of Bags and Purses Amsterdam
The Museum of Bags and Purses is just two years old but is now recognized as having the largest bag collection in the world. I’ve visited twice - June 2008 and April 2009. A great way to spend time with girlfriends and thousands of bags!
Tickets are EUR 6.50 per …
