Isn’t it good? Norwegian would.
Let's face it. Almost every male is lazy in one aspect or another. Maybe it's hygiene. Maybe it's remembering anniversaries. Or maybe it's simply a matter of reaching that age where it could be all three, combined. But this post is focused on the lazy aspect. Except that this lazy…
Cruise ships evoke strong opinions, and Royal Caribbean offers adventures like bumper cars, ziplining, and even scuba diving. There’s relaxation in the adults-only Solarium and activities such as language learning and wine tasting. The iconic new ship, Icon of the Seas, is a marvel, accommodating 5,610 passengers, ready for travelers to book their adventure.
The UK is an amusing and sometimes baffling place to those who don't frequent the country. Probably one of the most visible aspects is not only how diverse each area is, but also how different the people can be. Most countries in the world share this kind of patchwork of history, of course,…
We love The Netherlands. From the tulip fields, to the canals, to the people themselves, the country stands out in not only the European Union, but also in the minds of those who enjoy balanced and open-minded individuals who keep the greater whole in the frame as a model of how to live. …
We write a lot about Mexico, because it has a lot to offer, of course. Sun, sea, food, lovely people and it's a holiday bargain. The country is probably more diverse than you remember and, as you jaunt from city to city, you can see how Mexico is a fascinating patchwork of interconnected…
Hardly! Mexico is a massive and bustling country, but to this day, it still has a "reputation" of being slow to move and not firing on all cylinders. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. We've been there and it is as action-packed, bustling and diverse as any place on the planet.…
We've been to Cartagena, Colombia many, many times. Why, you may ask? We have family there, but - even more - it's such a wonderful place to be (as is all of Colombia.) Relaxed, hip, diverse, fun and rich in history. And the food transcends. Located on the northern coast…
We live in Vancouver, Canada. It's a rather nice place, where water is plentiful. The primary area for visitors is downtown, which happens to sit on a bay. It's a lovely place, such that the city has spent much effort and money to make it a place to see. And, as…
Another post about yet another place on this beautiful earth that may be bubbling under for you . . . and for others. Today, it's Anguilla. Anguilla is a small Caribbean island known for its stunning natural beauty, pristine beaches and warm hospitality. Here are several reasons why you should consider visiting. …
It may be a necessity, but it is also a joy: eating. And, in this day and age as the world get closer together through social media, one of the big stars is food. No matter which social media channel you favour, you will be deluged with images of lip-smacking eats…
We don't know if it's just us, but does it feel like, in the past few years, there has been an exponential growth of very visible billionaires? When we were growing up, or even just a few years ago, you could count them on one hand. But, now they're everywhere. Of course,…
.....just a good pair of shoes. – James Carville. And an open mind. Long considered a place of debauchery and overt sin (what with its booze, crazy street antics and reputation for "saucy" entertainment) the City of New Orleans is all of that, and so much more. New Orleans, located in the…
It’s the most dominant fast food chain on the planet, serving 68 million customers a day in 120 countries. You won’t spot the golden arches, though, anywhere on one tiny island in the easternmost Caribbean. “Bajans didn’t like it,” says Michael Harrison when asked about the absence of McDonalds in Barbados. “When they want a…
Want to take a cruise, but perhaps have a few conditions that need to be met first? The cruise can’t be too long, the ship too crowded and not to the Caribbean again. Well, we have an option: Montreal and beyond, eh?
Looking for your next travel destination? Are you a music fan? Do you like to mix the two, maybe with a little ganja and history? Well, we have the perfect combination for you. You've probably guessed it - it's Jamaica. You know it - the Caribbean island nation, that has a…
There is never a bad time to take a cruise. And, bad cruises are rare, as long as you know what you want, and how to find it. (We have some ideas, see below.) But who would best know about cruising than the captain of one of those most majestic beasts? …
When most people think of South America, it's usually Peru or Chile or Colombia. They're all fabulous places and if you haven't already been, we seriously suggest that you look into this most varied and truly wonderful part of the world. For those not in the know, nestled between the Caribbean, the South…
