A Taste of Proper Fun: Bermuda
Like many who have survived into adulthood, I wince when I look back and recall some of the youthful antics I partook under the name of fun. Like a lad who graduates from cheap flavored whiskey to fine wine, I today prefer my fun with a dash of panache, a subtle aroma, and a delightfully delicate nose. So, of course, it is a treat to discover Bermuda, the place that practically invented proper fun, and which now embodies it. The demure … [Read more...]

The Allure of Disney World in Orlando
Having made multiple trips to Florida over the years (the first one was in the middle of the summer in the Everglades - think heat, high humidity and a serious mosquito problem, you would have thought that trip would have turned me off of the sunshine state forever). Fortunately that was not the case and I've been able to spend some time exploring Miami and the Keys on several occasions. I have always wanted to visit Walt Disney World located … [Read more...]
Layers of History, Jerusalem
We spent several days here exploring as there is something significant to see around seemingly every step; today was entirely spent in the confines of the walled old city. Tensions felt high at times as there were some recent isolated incidents of violence - enough to plummet tourism 70% in the last few weeks according to one shop owner we talked with. As a corollary to this, lines that would normally form around major attractions were completely … [Read more...]
