Tahiti, Exploring this Gem in the Middle of the Southern Pacific Ocean

June 15, 2019 by Dave9 Comments

I've wanted to visit Tahiti for years but the high cost of airfare has been a barrier to visiting the country. But with recent flights from the west coast of the USA launching earlier this year and prices much more affordable then in the years past, my decision to visit Tahiti became more realistic. The capital city of Papeete is by far the largest city in the country - and yes there is even traffic downtown. But as far as cities go, this is … [Read more...]

Guinness Storehouse Dublin – June 2019

June 1, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

Guinness Storehouse is a large complex of buildings located at St James's Gate in Dublin Ireland. Guinness has truly developed a cult-like following over the years - since it's founding in 1759. A visit here will immediately clarify this - even during a recent visit on a weekday somewhat off season the storehouse was super crowded with visitors. A visit here is like a walk back in time to another era of old austere looking brick factory … [Read more...]

Playing the Points Game: A Beginner’s Thoughts

June 1, 2019 by Kevin NelsonLeave a Comment

My youngest son is about to fly the coop and start college, joining his older brother in the fall at San Diego State. This means that my wife and I are about to become empty nesters, giving us the chance to fly the coop ourselves and travel more. With this looming rebirth of freedom, I am beginning to look into the wonderful (and complicated!) game of acquiring points as a means of knocking down the costs of airfare, lodging, restaurants, and … [Read more...]

The metro connects both airports to the center of town and outlying suburbs. The fastest train in the world, the Maglev connects Pudong Airport to the metro system. Air pollution is certainly a problem here - during the Shanghai Expo in 2010 factories were shut down … [Read more...]
