Street Foods Of Cuba

January 10, 2016 by Dave Wanders2 Comments

Like most countries, street food is available all over Cuba, sold from stands, windows, wheelbarrows and carts. Now, before I arrived in Cuba, I already had my doubts on the food because of what other travelers have said in the past. So I didn't arrive with high … [Read more...]

A Tale of Blue Gold

You might not wonder how clothes or other fabrics get their color, but textile dyes have been around for centuries affecting much more than just the world of fabric. With the introduction of exotic and stunning hues that came from dyes, the world was made a canvas upon which our ancestors painted their history.

Use Hotel Reservation Recycling To Your Advantage

December 23, 2015 by James GLeave a Comment

The worst case scenario for these locations is that the event is cancelled, by human error or unexpected natural phenomena. The tourism industry suffers, as the crowds cancel their stays. Of course, the … [Read more...]

Cruising Holland America Line, ms Eurodam

December 11, 2015 by Dave3 Comments

One of my early childhood memories is visiting my grandparents as they left for an around the world cruise on a Holland America Line cruise ship - this must have been sometime in the late 1970's or early 1980's. I remember being allowed to board the ship with my family and running through all the hallways and eventually ending up in a room where they told children to go. I remember what felt like thousands of people (probably just hundreds) … [Read more...]
