Le Quinquis Camping
If you get the opportunity to go to Brittany, seize it with both hands. It doesn’t matter where you come from, they are the most welcoming of people. They are particularly keen on the British for historical reasons. Indeed, the Bretons have their own language which is similar to …
Deception Valley, Central Kalahari Game Reserve
From Tau Pan, I spent half a day in Deception Valley. Deception Valley was on our list as this Pan was made famous by the American couple (the Owens’ Cry of the Kalahari) who studied the elusive brown hyena for at least 7 years.
To get to this …
Sebastian Inlet State Park
On the East coast of Florida, just a short drive from Melbourne Beach on A1A is Sebastian Inlet. This is a great place to take a family for the day and it’s fairly inexpensive at less than $5 a carload I think. There’s excellent Saltwater fishing there. …
Playa Park Club Corallejo -Fuerteventura (Spain)

Adventure Safaris
Traveling in Africa is not cheap at all. In Botswana alone, they have a low tourism volume policy which makes it expensive to see this country. It at least costs me €250 a night in one of the lodges. I sometimes book directly with the Lodge or the agency …
Horse Creek Campground
Over the memorial day holiday we decided to go to DollyWood. We decided we would camp out at a national forestry campground because they are usually either free or cheap. Our choice was Horse Creek Campground which is located on state route 107 about six miles east of Greenville, …

RK Beach Visakhapatnam
We live opposite to this beach enjoying a beautiful sun rise every day. However, the once famous beach has now become more like a killer beach with at least a couple of young persons losing their lives every fortnight. Most of them are outsiders quite oblivious to the dangers …

Fred Dale nature reserve, Worcestershire

The Fruit and Spice Park in South Florida

Jedediah Smith Redwoods Forest Campgrounds
This is not actually a hotel, as you may have noticed, but a campground. It is a very nice campground.
Almost all of the sites cost $20 a night, although I did notice that they had several very large group camping sites available for well over $100. I believe that …

Copenhagen Denmark

I’m sure everyone has heard of the Statue of Liberty or even had a chance to visit this themselves. This is in the City of New York on Liberty Island and is a gift from the French. Anyway I don’t know too much about the history of this myself …
The Pinnacle at Mt. Wellington, Tasmania, Australia
I have to admit I was quite scared as the car went up the winding road to the top of Mt. Wellington. Although we had checked the night before the weather condition at the mountain and knew there would be …

Llandudno Pier, Llandudno, Wales
The seaside resort of Llandudno on the north coast of Wales is well known (and in my opinion deservedly so) for its delightful, and slightly old-fashioned, holiday atmosphere, making it perfect for families. One of the things that contribute greatly to this feel is the town’s traditional Victorian pier, …
Tunisian Oasis
Let me start of by saying, specifying, underlying, and highlighting that this kind of holiday isn’t for everybody, and this for the very simple reason that you will spend a lot of time riding on a bus. It is an 8 day trip where you will see some truly …
Kailasa Giri, Visakhapatnam

Houston Valley Recreation Area
On a trip to Dollywood we decided we would try out the Houston Valley Recreation Area for a place to camp. What we did not realize is how far away from Dollywood the campground really is. It was basically a two hour ride which means it sort of defeated …

Banaue Rice Terraces

Lonely Beach Ko Chang Thailand
Weeks before Christmas, forced to flee the cold, terrible weather of a wintery Korea, I hopped a flight to Thailand. After a long cab ride, an even longer bus ride, a bumpy ride in the back of a pick-up truck, the slowest ferry I’ve ever been on, and a …
Nelis’ Dutch Village
I am not much of a —˜theme park’ type of person, but while visiting relatives in Holland, Michigan I took in a lot of attractions. Nelis’ Dutch Village was one of the Dutch cultural sites I saw, and despite my original reluctance to go, I had a great time …
David Wills House, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
