A Day in the Park Arts & Craft Show

DVD Xpress Movie Rental Kiosk
I like to watch movies especially because I don’t waste my money on cable or satellite TV. I used to rent from blockbuster, but was tired of the high prices for a one night rental. I then started renting from the Redbox and was happy with it. I didn’t …

National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium
I am reviewing the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium, located in Dubuque, IA. This museum has a little something for everyone, but I would recommend it highly for parents with children. There are six large aquariums, featuring frogs, otters, turtles, and fish. In addition, there …
Six Flags Great Adventure

Chicago Indoor Racing
We went to race to the Chicago Indoor Racing facility to race in go-karts in Buffalo Grove over the past weekend. Overall, it was a great experience. There were 12 people racing, so we bought a group package, which was $85 per person, and that included $12 off dining …

The Bronx Zoo, located in NY, is a great day out! I recently went there with my fiance for a day out, and we ended up having a blast.
We purchased the total experience tickets for $25 each, not so bad. This includes admission into the Zoo, plus 7 attractions. …
The Purple Onion Comedy Club

Being opened for public in 1986, this Safari Park is a modern zoo tourist object in a natural beauty area. Before Cisarua Safari Park was established, the place was 136.5 hectares unproductive tea plantation of the Gede Pangrango mountain National Park. As one of the animal conservation center, …

Alberta Street Fair in Portland
The weekend street fair is something that happens every weekend in Portland (during fair weather, of course), but I have to say, as a visitor to the city it seemed to be to be a big enough affair that I would have thought it was an annual event.
This …
Tower of London Ice Rink
Racking my brains for places to take my date, ice skating ranked top. I had been to one other ice rink in London-Queen’s Ice and Bowl-frankly not a romantic hotspot, more of a cheesy family ghetto.
Skating underneath the stars was more what I had in mind and Tower …
Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium: Tacoma, Washington
This zoo is an extremely good zoo to visit, especially in the summer months. I volunteer at this zoo in the summer and they have exceptional educational opportunities for kids and adults alike. They have interpreters outside a lot of the exhibits, standing there to answer your questions, provide …
Anime Boston
To a normal person, Anime Boston is when freaks invade the Prudential Center, scare small children, and cause ridiculously long lines at the food court. To the New England anime fan, Anime Boston is three amazing days to look forward to all year!
For me, I’ve only recently gotten into …
Rihanna and Chris Brown Live in Taguig

Bayfront Park Ampitheatre in Miami

Oaklawn Farm Zoo

WWE RAW 07/13/2009
On the heels of quite possibly the biggest UFC show in the history of the sport, WWE had to offer something incredible to counter it. Lesnar’s actions after winning his fight against Frank Mir were reminiscent of something a Stone Cold Steve Austin might do. WWE needed something to …
The Ambassaor Night Club in St.Louis Mo
The funniest thing happened to me and my wife this summer. We were invited to visit this night club located in St.Louis. I had heard of it before because I am from St.Louis. So night clubs and hot spots are my thing. I don’t mind going to different places. …

2010 Columbus, WI Fourth of July Parade
We didn’t attend last year’s Independence Day parade in Columbus, WI because my wife was pregnant and due any day (she gave birth on the 14th of that month). So, when we had an opportunity to attend this year’s parade, we did so.
Overall, I think I’m glad I took …
Jurong Bird Park Singapore
This tourist attraction was one of my most anticipated itinerary. The location was remote and it was in the highlands of Singapore.

Disney’s World of Color

The way that Disney …
Universal Studios Singapore
Recently, my family and I were blessed to have a holiday in Singapore and spend a day at Universal Studios Singapore. On the small island of Sentosa, Universal Studios, in my honest opinion, provides the best places for movie buffs, adrenaline junkies, fantasy hunters and picture taking fanatics. It …
Terminal ONE Lounge
Terminal ONE Lounge is one of the place where Daniel and I frequent a lot, and I find that it has evolved to become one of the main players in the clubbing scene in Kuching. Whether it is weekdays or weekends, the place is always packed with people, especially …

I have been to the Shark Reef at the Mandalay Bay Casino and Resort twice, to date. The first time I went, my co-workers and I took a group of preschool children as an educational experience. Despite having to tell them to look to the right twenty …
World Wrestling Entertainment
Since I was five years old, I am already aware of the World Wresting Entertainment or Federation as it was back then. Every Wednesday, I’d wait for my dad to come home at 10:30 in the evening and we’ll watch it in Channel 13.
Big names back then were …

Ruby Nightclub in Chicago is just the latest club in a string of clubs to fill the same spot, and I think Ruby has done the best job out of the last two to keep a steady string of clientele and provide a great evening of entertainment for anyone …
Metro FM National Radio Station
This is the one thing that I think the South African Broadcasting Commission actually got right, apart from their TV3 channel of course.
Over my ten year period of listening to Metro FM, the content, broadcast style and layout of the whole operation is what turned me into the loyal, …

I went to The Coliseum a few times after it had first opened and found that it hadn’t really attracted a whole lot of customers. The arcade section upstairs was only half full most of the times I went there the winter after it opened and downstairs where the …
Legoland SeaLife Aquarium Carlsbad, CA
Legoland recently opened it’s newest attraction, Legoland SeaLife Aquarium in San Diego. From the outside the aquarium looks amazing but once inside I was really disappointed.
