An Exceptional Day Regardless of the Rain

February 4, 2014 by DaveLeave a Comment

I'm not one to enjoy rain - really, ever. Today was an exception. Joe, our driver for the day from Wayoutback Safaris pulled up nice and early at 630am, making the rounds of hotels and hostels in downtown Darwin. We were off for a day of swimming - heavy rain was not going to stop us. Our destination was Litchfield National Park located in the bush about a 90 minutes drive south of Darwin. Our first stop was the impressive Florence Falls for … [Read more...]

Kruger National Park, South Africa – February 2014

February 1, 2014 by Dave2 Comments

For big game viewing it doesn't get much better than Kruger National Park in South Africa. This is a well loved park and to avoid some of the crowds try to visit during the weekdays. The southern part of the park is the most visited and there is accommodation both inside the park and next to its borders. Accommodation outside its borders tends to be cheaper.

My Journey to the massive Kata Tjuta stones in Australia

January 20, 2014 by Bob GormanLeave a Comment

Here is my personal journey, which started in Sydney and ended up in me finding the most peaceful yet mind-blowing place on Earth - the Kata Tjuta stones in the Northern Territory. Ticking things off When you go to any country in the world for the first time there are certain places you need to tick off your to-do list. In Australia those places are the Gold Coast in Queensland and of course, Sydney. The Opera House, Bondi Beach, the … [Read more...]

Lassen Trip, California

November 10, 2013 by DaveLeave a Comment

A friend of mine looked at YouTube the other day and found fishing videos of Hat Creek (located near Lassen National Park in Northern California). He had not been to Lassen in over 40 years - "Lets go fishing there", he told me. We hurriedly threw a bunch of gear in the back of his pickup - I can travel the world for a year with a school size backpack, but for 3 days in the woods - we had enough gear to hold a small garage sale if we had … [Read more...]

Looking for a Vacation Destination? Consider Venezuela

October 12, 2013 by Joanne RuddellLeave a Comment

When I tell people that Venezuela is one of the most breathtaking vacation destinations in the world, my words are often met with glares of disbelief. Venezuela? That's Hugo Chavez territory! Well technically, Chavez is no longer alive, but the stigma remains. Awhile back, I was reading an article about the state of tourism in Venezuela. The piece indicated that while tourism is improving in this great South American nation, it's still … [Read more...]

Exploring Michigan’s Upper Peninsula

August 30, 2013 by Laura P.3 Comments

Maybe Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is called God’s Country because only a supernatural force could withstand the ferocious Feel-Em-No-See-Ems, extreme weather, potentially dangerous wildlife or the keen loneliness of the endless forest. Then again, anyone who lays eyes on this place can’t fail to feel something celestial is at work. From Tahquamenon Falls and the Porcupine Mountains to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and autumn colors … [Read more...]
