My mum has been attending this since 1997. She got me hooked in 2007. I don’t know why I never joined her. i wish I did, this year we dragged my cousin and his gf to come. They are also hooked. We are already planning for next year. After entering, there is a live band In the middle of the courtyard. A handful of local artists display their work. There are also workshops on how to do printm... (read more about FESTIVAL OF ARTS: PAGEANT OF THE MASTERS)

Panama City Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches that I have ever been too. I am still just as excited as I was when I was a little girl each summer when planning to go and on our trip down there! Each time we go, which has been every year since I was born, I am amazed at how beautiful the beach is and feel like I am in Paradise each time. There is no other beauty like it. I also lov...

A cozy little restaurant by the river in an old brick room. Outside tables on the riverfront. The staff is nice and does everything they can to give you a good dinner. Specialties are Macedonian style pizza, bowls of sauteed wild mushrooms, and little loafs of bread that are baked to order. It was good to find a place here where, although it was still pizza, at least it was Macedonian style pi... (read more about Pizza-Restaurant Angela)

I love Fort Santiago. It's special to me being the very first historical site I was able to visit in Luzon. And I love the fact that it's located in the heart of the city. I have brought many friends to the fort every time I'm in Manila and the latest was last July with TravBuddies (minx2812, moonvera, nomaden and silenblack). We were there hours before the Philippine TravBuddy grand meet... (read more about Fort Santiago (Fuerza de Santiago))

Shout is in the Block E section of downtown Minneapolis and is a dueling piano bar. There are 3 guys who sing through out the night and every 45 minutes one subs the other out! They are very entertaining and do a good job at getting the crowd involved!!! The waiter, ours was Matt, was very observant and fun loving. He was there to make us smile and have a good time and he did just that! H... (read more about Shout)

I can (almost) hear some of you asking, ‘another museum review from Rudolph?’ and the answer is yes! This time however, not a review about the opening hours, the prices in the coffee corner, the museum shop or even the collection on display. For that, I recommend visiting their website that is available in English. This review is about the museum itself, the building. Because, let me tell you,... (read more about Gemeentemuseum)

On Friday we left the scenic sea-side village of Vilankulo in Mozambique for a weekend of wildlife adventure in the Gonarezhou and Malilangwe Reserves in the southeastern corner of Zimbabwe. Our lodging for Friday and Saturday nights was at the Singita Pamushana Lodge in the Malilangwe Private Reserve. We spent all of Saturday in the Malilangwe Park, and part of Sunday in Gonarezhou. In my opini... (read more about Gonarezhou and Malilangwe Wildlife Reserves)

This is one of the most miserable airports I've ever seen. In fairness, we were only in the departures area (reviews I've read say check in and security on the 'other' side are very fast), but it was horrible. The bus into the terminal from the parking bay where out flight from MAN to AUH was the standard transfer vehicle, but very hot. I was glad it was a relatively short ride (short compared ...

Lookout Mountains cave system has been a part of the local history for centuries, but in 1905 the Southern Railroad Co in building its rail system had to cut a tunnel across the face of Lookout Mountain and close off the natural entrance. A local cave enthusiast, Leo Lambert, knew about the cave and wanted to reopen it but from a different point. He wanted to drop an elevator shaft down fr... (read more about Ruby Falls)

This write-up was actually written not to rate my city’s many air terminals, but primarily to educate some travellers who get confused as to which airport to utilize on different flights. I have actually met a handful of TBs who weren’t properly informed about this matter, so here’s my little share that humbly aims to help those who might need this pieces of information. Don’t be surpri... (read more about Manila Airports)
