Two Lost Americans On A Borneo Rainforest Safari

May 24, 2018 by Two Lost Americans4 Comments

Just a smidgen before sunrise in the Borneo rainforest when a gray mist still veiled the chocolate-colored Kinabatangan River, the macaques and proboscis monkeys started dropping down from the trees in search of breakfast. From our motorboat on the water, we kept an eye out for movement among the leaves. The monkeys often traveled in packs, so many times when we'd see one swinging down to the river's edge, the rest of the group — either bachelors … [Read more...]

Wine Tasting in Myanmar

May 21, 2018 by Dave23 Comments

When traveling abroad, I always seek out wineries whenever possible. To some, going wine tasting in Myanmar might be somewhat of a surprise - an anomaly and to an extent it is. However, there are two wineries in the country, (Aythaya Vineyard and Red Mountain Estate) both in the vicinity of Inle Lake. Red Mountain Estate Winery is located on the outskirts of the small town of Nyaungshe. As one arrives, one quickly sees vineyards lining the … [Read more...]

May 20, 2018 by Steve Mirsky1 Comment

Tucked above Main Street overlooking the shores of Mirror Lake The Resort at High Peaks was originally built as the Lake Placid Hilton in 1980 to accommodate Winter Olympics crowds. Much later in 2008 it experienced a rebirth with a complete overhaul redeveloping every aspect of the property except its original footprint.

Prepare for a Long Hike at Carlsbad Caverns

May 16, 2018 by Craig Hebert4 Comments

As tourist from all over the world pass us going uphill, some speak to us, some don’t, or can’t. Those that do speak tell us- “It’s not too late to turnaround.” “Too much for me!” “Wow, you’re carrying a lot of camera gear!” Those that don’t speak are either shy or gasping for oxygen as they struggle, pause and continue their hike up the steep switchbacks to exit Carlsbad Caverns. A handful are jogging upslope- Yes, jogging! Carlsbad … [Read more...]

Hermitage Bay: A Slice of Paradise in Antigua

May 12, 2018 by Allison Tibaldi2 Comments

Sometimes, the perfect resort drifts your way. Of course, it’s subjective, but for my money, a visit to the island of Antigua is akin to winning the vacation lottery. Even in a region as beautiful as the Caribbean, Antigua stands out for its variety of beaches. Locals say there are 365 beaches, so you may swim and sunbathe at a different beach everyday for an entire year without repetition. The quality of its water is breathtaking—crystal … [Read more...]

Majestic Malta

May 10, 2018 by Gordon SouthgateLeave a Comment

As a small island country located in southern Europe, Malta falls directly into the category of what we would call an often-missed gem. Malta is one of those countries many only know of by name. With a population just shy of 500,000 and a total land area of 316km2, this is one of the travel destinations whose small stature in no way dictates what it has to offer. With beautiful beaches, amazing geographical formations, and fantastic shopping, … [Read more...]
