Get your motor running. Get out on the highway.
. . . . nowadays, they just love to visit. They're much better behaved than they used to be.
Located along FDR Drive in Manhattan, NYC is Waterside Plaza, built on a spit of artificial land. But what many New Yorkers don't realise is that beneath Waterside Plaza are the remains of a…
We woke up this morning with a real longing to go to Japan, a place where we've never been, but know that we will go, someday. After a little research, we decided to go back in time to Japan in the 1940s. The miracle of the internet constantly drip-feeds us, every day, with…
Here's another instalment of our ongoing Hey Presto parade of Webcams, worldwide. You may not be able to be there, but you can be there, if you know what we mean. Webcams provide a real-time connection to places, events, or situations that you might not be able to experience otherwise. This can create…
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…
Singapore is a captivating destination with a unique blend of modernity, culture, and natural beauty. As Simon and Garfunkel once said, slow down, you're moving too fast. You've got to make the morning last. But, if you're a go for the gusto, to-the-extreme, what's in it for me win-win situation, been there,…
Want to show off to your friends? Want to add your name to the Guinness Book of World Records? Want to spend a little spare cash? Here's an odd and humorous topic for all of you high-value air travelers. This may appear to be pure selfishness, courtesy of some Johnny Bigpants, where…
Once again, we return to the UK for this post, but this post is a bit specific. You should know by now that England (and all of the UK) is filled with locations, activities and history that are hard to beat. Literally, at every corner, there is something from antiquity that will stop…
... a rail tale, as it were. We write about Cleveland, Ohio, USA every so often. Interestingly, the city seems to capture the attention of thousands of people regularly, even though it is slowly shrinking away. So, why would you want to visit Cleveland, Ohio and - in this case -…
Every day, we pour over what the internet has to offer, evaluate whether it's worthy or not, and if it is, we leave it here for you to enjoy. Some of our posts are rather simple - such as the one today - because not everyone who is on the Internet needs to…
If you're a business, changing the name of your organization can be a bit of a nightmare. For example, in 2015, Google reorganized under a new name, Alphabet. Pop Quiz: how many of you recall Google Alphabet? Not too many, we would wager. Here's another one that will really prove your age:…
This could be another one of those "been there, done that" stories, where frenzied travelers (or travel bloggers) flee at full speed just to meet their self-imposed deadlines. But, seriously, that's not what travel should be about. You likely flew for ten or more hours to get there, so why rush it? …
We will remember this time in history as the time where everything went wrong all at once. Between Covid, forest fires, floods, earthquakes and people fighting each other, probably not even knowing why. So, to add salt to the wound, there are even problems with obtaining planes to be able to shuttle those who…
It's sometimes a stigma if we signal that we want to be alone for a while. There is nothing wrong with that. Usually we're our best company - at least we can be honest with ourselves - maybe. Being alone provides the opportunity to connect with your thoughts, feelings, and interests…
