Uluru Australia, previously known as “Ayers Rock,” is a gigantic red rock formation within Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. It’s located 450km from Alice Springs, in the middle of the Northern Australian Outback. Should Uluru be a part of your Itinerary? It depends on who you ask. My earliest visual association with Australia was Uluru. Back…
There are probably many reasons why travel in Australia is on everybody’s bucket list or why everyone has an Australia bucket list. Maybe it’s the quest to conquer the continents, the distance to get there, or the sheer glamour of traveling somewhere so exotic. No matter the reason, it’s on almost everyone’s bucket list. I’ll…
Have you ever wanted to swim with a manatee, Florida’s gentle giant? Here is how to make that dream come true, and you don’t have to book a tour to meet them! Otherwise known as sea cows, these gentle giants are indigenous to Florida and hang out in droves at the Crystal River, Florida. This…
Delaware’s Nemours Estate is a vibrant and historically rich alternative to what most people flock to Delaware for – the beaches. Beaches are everywhere, and while Delaware has some great beaches to offer, there’s more to Delaware than the beaches. I will admit, you won’t find an abundance of options for Delaware. I asked loads…
At the end of 2018, I completed visiting all 50 States. New Mexico was one of the remaining four to explore in 2018. I chose to spend a week here. You might ask why? Well, this was an easy decision. The west, mainly the Rocky Mountains, has always been good to me. I chose Santa…

I loved this show; for me, it was epic. I don’t watch anything for very long, I have a brief interest/attention span, and…
The Hilton Santa Fe Buffalo Thunder is worthy of this review, even though I’m not a big fan of writing hotel reviews. I’ve only written a few, and one was for a spectacular place in Argentina. I tend to spare hotel reviews for the amazing or terrible. This hotel is neither excellent nor awful. It’s…
Iceland Hype – Is It Worth It? Yes, Iceland is worth the hype! Iceland is one of my favorite places in the world. As a rule of thumb, I only visit countries once. If I have the desire to return, the location must be divine. Iceland is sacred, and we will return. It was once a…
It never ceases to amaze me how many Americans have not visited Yellowstone National Park. It’s a national jewel akin to Ireland’s countryside. We have stayed twice and will return. Hands down, this is my favorite place in the United States, other than Florida, where we live. Yellowstone places Montana on my list of favorite…
Travel to Argentina was a natural choice for us, given that we were in Brazil. As I mentioned, I enjoy multiple-location trips using multiple one-way flights. Argentina’s main draw for us is the resting place of Eva Peron (Evita). Eva’s story has captivated me for some time. I wanted to see where she lived, where…
