Why Tahiti temporarily became an unlikely sports travel destination this past summer

  The Terramar Project Fairly mountainous and surrounded by coral reefs, the archipelago´s largest and most populous island (with some 192,000 inhabitants) is its cultural and economic heart.  On the northwest coast, its capital Papeete (pop. just under 27,000) is, to quote Tahiti Tourism´s own website “not the prettiest of towns,” but it does have some interesting corners, including the landscaped waterfront, the cathedral, the presidential palace, the Sunday-morning Papeete market, a pearl…

New York's Baseball Hall of Fame in 'Nostalgia Front & Center in Some U.S. Museums & Eateries'

Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame Louis Kaplan is channeling his childhood.  While a youngster, he collected baseball cards which he stored in boxes and treasured as souvenirs of the USA's favorite pastime.  Decades later, he’s reliving that time while visiting the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, upstate New York.  Opportunities to recapture memories from the past are of course not limited to baseball, nor to New York. From Coca-Cola to cars, movies to museums,…

This year, we added 2 new major league stadiums and 1 college stadium to our list, brining our total to 21 stadiums ranked for 23 Major League teams (the Yankees and Mets have demolished their stadiums since our visit), 9 minor league teams, and 1 college. We end each year's survey with our rankings, from best to worst, of all the stadiums reviewed. There are some jewels...the top three are…

    A great baseball town is St. Louis but in today's update for the Fields of Dreams on The World on Wheels, we have to knock Busch Stadium down a notch for instituting "Dynamic Pricing," think of it as a stock market for baseball tickets: http://tinyurl.com/2bzukqp

    It's nice to see when a baseball team actually lowers their prices. Today on the Fields of Dreams report at The World on Wheels, our update focuses on a team that did just that, the Fresno Grizzlie (AAA affilliate of the Giants) who play at Chukshansi Park: http://tinyurl.com/242hrke

    Yep...won't be satisfied till we get 100% though, and then we'll have to go back to the teams that built new stadiums since we've been there (Yankee and Mets...I'm looking at you...)

    That means you've been to 2/3 MLB stadiums. Impressive! Most people lucky if they see five.
