Top 5 Architectural Wonders of I.M. Pei
As you may know, Dave and I are not experts in the field of architecture see our lack of understanding in Barcelona and Gaudi. So when an interesting email comes our way that can teach us about structures around the world and a famous architect that we knew nothing about, we love to share it with our readers .
Adventure Travel Defined
Double income, no kids (DINKY) holidays will be the best chance to experience what is now called Adventure Travel. This does not always mean climbing Kilimanjaro, or skiing naked down Mt Everest with carnations up your nose. It just means going somewhere else, outside your comfort zone and both of you enjoying the experience of the new, the exciting and the challenging.

Inspirational People We’ve Met in our Travels.
One of the things we love the most about travel is meeting new people. While we could compile a list of a hundred people that we have met that have become great friends and have been an inspiration, we wanted to share with you a few of the special people that have really stood out and touched our hearts during our travels around the world over the years. 1. Mary Louise in Paris, France, 2. Hussein in Udaipur, India, 3. Ajith in Hikkaduwa, Sri Lanka, 4. Abdulla Ahmed in Wadi Halfa, Sudan, 5. Kul and Mim Das Tamang in Kathmandu, Nepal
Snapshot Sunday #1-Yala National Park, Sri Lanka
Welcome to the first of our Sunday Snapshots. This was definitely a highlight not only of this week in travel, but probably our entire ten years in travel. We actually spotted a rare site in Sri Lanka’s, Yala National Park. The elusive leopard. The Leopard doesn’t make an appearance for everyone and as we can attest, not all people had the privilege that we had. Several jeeps waited a very long time for it to climb out of the tree or even move. We almost didn’t believe that it was there. Only a few jeeps remained, when our leopard climbed out of a tree, gave a big stretch, a look in our direction and then he walked slowly to a tree stump in long grass.
