Half Moon Cay (Little San Salvador Island), Bahamas – September 2019

September 1, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

This private island in the Bahamas is surrounded by stunning and usually clear aqua marine waters. Part of the intrigue of visiting the island is it is typically only accessible via cruise ship - from Holland America Line or Carnival Cruises. The island is owned by Carnival Corporation. Other than a small area containing shops near where the tender ships come ashore much of the island remains in a natural state. However for passengers on board … [Read more...]

Visiting Bagan, Myanmar

July 15, 2019 by Dave21 Comments

Bagan is the land of ancient temples - these stone spires dot the dusty landscape of what is called the Bagan Plains. We are visiting in the middle of winter, yet the temperatures are very warm during the day and pleasant at night; apparently rain has not fallen here for weeks. Coming from Inle Lake, some 6 hours away by bus we were startled by the dramatic difference in landscape. Inle Lake has plenty of water - in fact villages are built above … [Read more...]
