First day on the Island of Trinidad in the West Indies

December 10, 2013 by Dave2 Comments

Such was the case with a recent trip to Trinidad and Tobago - on the island of Trinidad. I found some wifi at the airport, called around a few guesthouses, and found one quite cheap. The 30 minute taxi ride was nearly the same price as the room. Upon getting dropped off, some old guy peeked out the gated door in a bad part of town and … [Read more...]

Pilots, Amelia Rose Earhart & Patrick Carter

November 7, 2013 by Dave3 Comments

However, we quickly realized the modern day Amelia Earhart is named after the famous aviatrix. But the similarities do not end with a name - Amelia is also an accomplished pilot and is going to recreate and symbolically complete her namesake’s 1937 flight around the world. … [Read more...]
