First Pocono Ironman Triathlon

A GUIDE FOR VIEWERS AND TRAVELERS

 

9008637273?profile=originalThe Ironman 70.3 Triathlon is coming to the Pocono Mountains on October 2, and this is a big deal for both athletes and onlookers. It will be the first Ironman triathlon in Pennsylvania, and because it takes place in and around the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, it features some of the most beautiful scenery in the Middle Atlantic region.

The "Avenue of Stars" in Kowloon, Hong Kong

Avenue of Stars, TST Kowloon
9008636454?profile=originalI have NEVER been a fan of Avenue of Stars and believe it or not the Avenue of Stars is the 2nd most visited attraction in Hong Kong (The Peak is no. 1) so I decided a more thorough visit on my part was warranted.

Guess what, I still have not changed my mind, I am still not a fan.

This time round I took a lot more pictures and actually walked the whole route which basically ends at the Bruce Lee statue.

So why don’t I like it...

I began my Spanish courses at the Intercultura beach campus in Sámara, one of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever been.  I took part in the dance classes, cooking classes, took a few surfing lessons and walked the beach.  The one thing that I didn’t do my first week? Yoga.

 

So, I finally went.  Reluctantly.

 

Years of playing volleyball, lacrosse and running track made me quite competitive so yoga and all that stretching and that OOOM meditating business never appealed to me much.  Even so, my newf

If you’re an artist of any kind you’ll know exactly wha

BUSES: There's several bus companies that offer all sorts of routes across NZ.  This is the cheapest option to see the most of the country the easiest.  The setbacks are its a set route and set schedule.  Its a fast paced, up at 8am, get places and go. They say you can come and go as you please, but the issue is during the peak seasons it maybe very hard to get your spot on the bus once you give it up to stay longer. Its not as flexible as they say unless your calling weeks in advance.  Its grea

In the video below, a mother reindeer loses her baby during one of these traffic jams and calls out to it, guiding it back to the group.
