…the baggage claim area where there appear to be no doors in this open air terminal. However, at closer look, behind the ladies who search through your bags and ask for bribes there is one of those dungeon style doors with the large metal block that slides off to open the door. Very strange once again but nobody else seemed to think so. Finally, after figuring out where you are supposed to meet taxis, which is no easy task-you are bombarded by dri…

…of the coast off the Guianas is that the big oil companies are starting to search for oil there. Guyana and Suriname especially are fighting over the rights to the waters where they are exploring, trying to gain the riches that can befall them if oil is discovered. That will be seen but for now the three countries are an interesting region to visit and as they develop, hopefully they can gain more in infrastructure. They can further their strength…

…below. The Chinese-American guy said good luck, I looked at him briefly in search of some condolences or something, when I was suddenly interrupted by the start of the countdown. As Paulo screamed go, I was jerked by him running toward the ledge and I had to book to keep up with him.

…for the thousands and thousands of people roaming the streets aimlessly in search of which place to go into. Promoters offer you everything from buy one get one free to buy one get 5 free. Generally we just ended up hopping around a bit and finally settling on a place that we could semi relax in and not be hassled. After three days in Cyprus, I was tired of loud music, being harrassed by club workers and the ridiculous amount of British package to…

…do not have a scanner either, but you can see pictures of it here or do a search on your own. Angkor Wat is the main temple in the massive temple complex built for a king in the 12th Century outside modern day Siem Reap. The largest and best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre — first Hindu, then Buddhist.

…aan Bungalows, after two weeks of nonstop Safaris and mountain climbing in search of a little R&R. We were so psyched to be on our own schedule instead of with a guide, but most of all we were happy to have a real bathroom. If you’ve been to East Africa, then you know what I mean. Zanzibar was wonderful. What a relaxing place. When you arrive at the airport, there is a big sign that simply says, “Smile you’re in Zanzibar”. Thats basically all we d…

…with North Goa and the town of Anjuna Beach, I set out from the airport in search of a paradise that I had heard so much about around the world-wide traveling circuit. I arrived at my guest house, Villa Anjuna, and plopped down at the very nice pool. After thanking God that I was no longer in the sweltering filth of Mumbai, I enjoyed myself at the pool and bar with a few Kingfisher beers. After a fun night of partying with some Israelis that I had…
