Living and Dying In the Yucatan

Thursday, May 24th, 2007

So, after yesterday´s long post about such thrilling subjects as worn out sandals and death marches, I meandered over and caught the 4pm bus tour of the city. The one Lonely Planet recommends turns out to be this wee little bus [read on]

Scotland: Edinburgh And Beyond

Edinburgh to Oban

Yesterday morning was up “bright” and early to make my way to the Haggis Adventures office on High Street. Was so paranoid about oversleeping that I did not sleep well and ended up being first there. It was only by a short time, though, literally less than a minute.

By 8:30am, we were all checked in and loaded up on the bus. Our bus is mostly Australians, Kiwis (New Zealanders), and Americans. The age range is wild, from 18 to 70-something, but honestly, the 70-something year old German couple are way outside the norm range for the trip. There are plenty in my age bracket as well, not that it seems to matter much. I’m amused by questions about what my major is… uhm… a job… [read on]

Another Day in Virginia

Tuesday, May 30th, 2006
Wow, it's quiet tonight; I mean needle-hit-the-floor-and-echoes quiet. I didn't realize the level of noise here until tonight. You see, the same day I arrived here, a bus load of high school students descended as well. Every room around me ... [Continue reading this entry]

By The Skin of Our Teeth

Wednesday, January 4th, 2006
Where to start? I'll save some suspense and first describe where I am because this alone is a unique experience. The only night time internet spot in Sorrento as far as we can tell is a club. We laughed last night ... [Continue reading this entry]

And Then There Were Two…

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005
I held off on mentioning this partially because I've been slam-busy and partially waiting for things to firm up, but I'm no longer going to Italy completely solo. I'll still have some me time, but part of the trip, Brandy, ... [Continue reading this entry]

Sanity has LEFT the building!

Monday, November 7th, 2005
Well, if you've talked to me or e-mailed with me in the past month or so, you've probably suffered through a good deal of trip talk, i.e. "Should I stay or should I go now." More than a month ago, I ... [Continue reading this entry]
