LAOS | Tuesday, 27 May 2008 | Views [1831] | Comments [1]

Elephant institute

THAILAND | Tuesday, 20 May 2008 | Views [782] | Comments [5]

Amy:   I don’t know if riding an elephant bare back was on my life list of things to do but it should have been.   What an amazing animal and what an amazing experience.   It is hard to describe what it feels like to sit on an elephant’s neck and ... Read more >

Cambodia Highlights

CAMBODIA | Saturday, 10 May 2008 | Views [1267]

Patti:We are now on day 4 in Cambodia. We arrived in Phnom Penh and our tuk tuk ride to our hotel was chaotic, to say the least. It was a mosh pit of cars, bikes, tuk tuks, scooters, and pedestrians with no apparently rules of the road. Traffic lights ... Read more >

Colca Canyon

PERU | Sunday, 9 Mar 2008 | Views [1243] | Comments [2]

Patti:     Colca Canyon was not at all what was expected but it was excellent and all for the low, low price of $30.00 each (including accommodation but not food or entrance fees). What I had previously thought about the canyon tour was that it would ... Read more >
