Baguio’s cool, and I don’t just mean the weather, though that’s significant at this altitude of some 1,400 meters, around 4500 feet.  It’s a nice place also, a true garden city in every sense of the term, complete with “orchidarium,” a term I was heretofore unfamiliar with.  The markets are replete with broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, beans, and all kinds of greens, a fact reflected in the local cuisine, too, with quite a few more vegetarian options than seemed readily available in Manila, or ev

In the center of Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, lies the city’s main square, Durbar Square. The King’s Palace is here, now a museum since Nepal became a democracy in 2006. image Dozens of pagodas and shikaras are scattered around the palace area, each one with its own centuries-old story to tell.

Yuma, Arizona - Teach Your Children

9008839480?profile=original9008839890?profile=original 9008840058?profile=original 9008839501?profile=original

Approaching storm - Kenya


We almost didn’t go. The thought of getting up at dawn didn’t sound very appealing at the moment and my daughter and I debated whether it would really be worth it.

Or, worse, lest they offend anyone, their family tra
