Planning a Trip to Africa to see the Gorillas

January 16, 2020 by Dave15 Comments

I have been to Africa a number of times and always gravitate towards the sub-Saharan eastern part of the continent. One of the greatest thrills on the planet is to be on a big game safari in Africa. The wildlife is prolific at times from parts of Kenya down through South Africa but especially in the Serengeti - with herds of wildebeest, plenty of giraffe, elephants and other rarer sightings. But until now, a visit to see gorillas in the wild … [Read more...]

LAX Restaurant Guide

January 14, 2020 by Terry DeapLeave a Comment

We've all been there before. You've got three hours before your next flight, and the little bag of complimentary pretzels from the last trip isn't going to hold you over until your final destination. While some may choose to pack their in-flight snacks, other travelers may want to explore what the various terminals have to offer.

Getting Around Aswan Without Getting Fleeced

January 12, 2020 by Abdul Rastagar3 Comments

My trip to Aswan, Egypt to see the ancient Temple of Isis at Philae was a good reminder to always look on the positive side, even when you feel like you are being taken advantage of by locals. The temple itself is magnificent and dramatically situated on an island in the middle of a lake. Because the vast majority of visitors to Aswan go as part of an organized and guided tour, there is scant information available for the independent, … [Read more...]
