Las Terrenas & Vicinity, Dominican Republic – August 2019

August 1, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

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...]

Tahiti, Exploring this Gem in the Middle of the Southern Pacific Ocean

June 15, 2019 by Dave9 Comments

I've wanted to visit Tahiti for years but the high cost of airfare has been a barrier to visiting the country. But with recent flights from the west coast of the USA launching earlier this year and prices much more affordable then in the years past, my decision to visit Tahiti became more realistic. The capital city of Papeete is by far the largest city in the country - and yes there is even traffic downtown. But as far as cities go, this is … [Read more...]

Guinness Storehouse Dublin – June 2019

June 1, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

A visit here will immediately clarify this - even during a recent visit on a weekday somewhat off season the storehouse was super crowded with visitors. A visit here is like a walk back in time to another era of old austere looking brick factory … [Read more...]
