We recently visited Safari West. It’s located in the hills near Santa Rosa, California. A highly recommended experience, we plan on going there again whenever we need a break.
the devastation of New Orleans
At this point my hopes for a quick recovery are gone. The news from the south coast, especially New Orleans, is as bad as the news from southern Asia this past winter (minus the terrible body count).
What has happened to New Orleans is affecting me a lot more than what happened in Asia. I’ve been to New Orleans twice for two short weekends; once in the summer and once in the winter. The first time was enough for me to become enchanted with the smelly, historic city. The second time convinced me I had to go for at least a week to really enjoy it. I never made time for New Orleans again. I regret that decision.
Disneyworld: Food and Lodging
I visited Disneyworld for the first time in early June. I’ve never been to Florida. I expected it to be hot and humid, and it was. I didn’t expect the amount of rain we got but I guess that goes along with the humidity.
