Most Memorable Travel Experience
I'll have to say I've had a great time everywhere I've been, but my favorite trip so far was to China. Had an absolutely fantastic time. Good food, wonderful hospitality and made some great friends while I was there.

hahaha That's right! There is no other airline to fly! That's weird that they were flying a route to Colorado...Oh well...who knows what the big D is up to. hahaha

Glad you are enjoying Colorado. I hope to get out there sometime this winter. I go to Italy on Thursday for my first international trip.

My first trip to Colorado!
My first trip to Colorado!
Aug 23, 2008 - Aug 29, 2008
Atlanta, Georgia, USA -› Denver, Colorado, USA -› ...
Well, I made it to Denver and Colorado Springs today for the beginning of my first trip to Colorado. Flew into Denver (DEN) and then drove down to Colorado Springs for a few days. I'll then be off to Breckenridge and end up in Denver for one last night on Thursday. I'll be updating my blog daily while here with some pictures and reviews. Once I return home, I'll have to sit down to do a thorough posting on everything. Ciao!

Glynn Academy - Brunswick, GA

Brunswick, Georgia, USA
Chartered on February 1, 1788 by General James Edward Oglethorpe, Glynn Academy is the second oldest high school in the state of Georgia. I graduated high school from Glynn Academy back in 1987, and considering the historical background of the schoool, I decided to take a few pictures of the campus on my latest trip home. I'll come back to add more details later but it is definately worth seeing when visiting the coast of Georgia.
