…n passport stamp when you enter and leave the Gambier Archipelago, even if coming from Tahiti. There is one expensive flight a week that comes from Tahiti. The return flight from Tahiti to the Gambier will be over $1000. From the airport you take a communal slow ferry; which cost 500 CFP to the island of Rikitea and the port of Mangareva. Mangareva is where the majority of the just over 1000 residents of the Gambier Archipelago live. The sleepy li…

The Marquesas Islands
April 9, 2012 by 12 Comments
…he other side of the island past the main town of Atuona there is the ruin complex at Taaoa. This is a very Mayan looking complex but the Banyan trees surrounding it make it distinctly Polynesian. The complex is pretty large and is about 7km from Altouna. Up from the complex back in the jungle is a well preserved tiki that from afar looks like nothing but as you get closer you can really make out the contours of the face. It stands over 1 meter ta…
Bryce Canyon National Park

…ght of the annular solar eclipse. They were handing out 3-D glasses as you enter the park and the park was mobbed with tourists and locals alike. They were armed with telescopes and powerful cameras. Bryce is apparently the best place in the country to watch the eclipse because of its location and elevation. It was awesome. It was tough to take pictures of it with my point and shoot but taken thru the 3-D glasses it became possible to see the coro…
One Day in Mogadishu, Somalia

…It’s really wild. Obviously no photos were allowed. Inside the Peace Hotel compound is a very comfortable, pleasant and even beautiful oasis in the middle of likely the most dangerous city on Earth. They have a beautiful courtyard, excellent gym, ping pong table, good restaurant, fabulous roof deck and sitting area. You never feel anything but safe, secure and amazed that you’re in the middle of Mogadishu when you’re at the Peace Hotel. The rooms…

…s on Borobudur in Java, Indonesia If you arrive at 5am, you are allowed to enter the complex for a steep fee of about $40. If you go later it is cheaper but by 7am the place is packed with tourists. It is also apparently a huge spot for school trips so then you’ll have a ton of local kids too. Get there early.

Abkhazia and Sochi

…assage on the beach below. I had never seen that before and was thoroughly entertained! Anyway, it was a great eye opening experience in Abkhazia and Sochi along with Adler and some other small towns we saw. I likely won’t be heading back ever again to Sochi unless I do decide to see what the final result of the 2014 preparations are come time for the games. We shall see. Either way, I am glad I went and am now sitting rested after a nightmare ove…
My AirBnb Scam Experience
March 26, 2019 by 40 Comments
…that this AirBnb scam artist is going to get additional money or whatever compensation they’re giving her. I mean, what’s to stop her or anyone after a renter leaves from reaching into a couch cushion and pulling out some feathers, tossing them on the floor, taking a photo and claiming the renters damaged the place? This is sheer madness to me. What kind of business runs like this? I also have no idea how much or how they compensate her but liter…
A Quick Travel Update

…Egypt and making a very interesting trip west. Yes there… I am planning to enter Libya from the border with Egypt and head into the rebel stronghold of Eastern Libya. I hope to get all the way to Benghazi but I will make a judgment call on the ground once I cross the border; as you know, it’s pretty volatile there nowadays. After crossing back into Egypt I figure I’ll take some time on the Red Sea beach towns of Dahab, Sharm El Sheikh and/or Hurgh…
The Most Boring Country on Earth

…d on my posts and I am actually done with Fiji after two more days on Beachcomber Island. It was my second time on Beachcomber, the first was 7 years ago and I still love it except for the communal sleeping dorms. I am definitely getting too old for that crap as there is no shutting up 20 years old Brits on gap year trips! I am now on Vanuatu but unfortunately sick as a dog. Something has not agreed with me and I am having trouble keeping anything…
The Center of the World?

…country in the Americas that I hadn’t been to. Well that time has finally come as I made plans two days ago to come down here and I have spent the last day and a half exploring the awesome little capital city of Quito. Quito, like many other South American capitals is a food lovers, or at least meat lovers dream and has one of the more interesting and certainly clean old towns in Latin America. It also has that amazing feeling of life that is so…
