Real Japan in Luxury

9008584679?profile=originalI wish I’d known about The Real Japan when I was traveling in Asia. Instead, I tried exploring this fascinating destination on my own and ended up nearly in tears – OK, actually in tears – when I couldn’t figure out the street signs, the menus, or pretty much anything else. In shear frustration, I signed up for a tour that took me to a series of touristy sites, and I left the country knowing I really hadn’t seen Japan

 

Since then, I’ve learned about Eric Demay and his company The Real Japan. Eric

Hangover Prevention Formula

9008583877?profile=original
Just in time for New Year’s Eve, I’ve learned about an all-natural product that prevents the ravaging symptoms of a hangover.
 
Hangover Prevention Formula is made from the fruit of the prickly pear cactus and a handful of B vitamins. Planning on imbibing? Just pop one capsule per 130 pounds of your body weight, avoid fibrous food for a couple of hours (which interferes with its absorption), and you’re good for 72 hours.

 

And this product isn’t just for preventing hangovers, it’s also good for comb

Cairo, Egypt, the Pyramids and More


I’ll start this post at the Pyramids. In the words of Alexander the Great, Marc Anthony, Napoleon, General Montgomery and Jerry Garcia, “oh maaan”. My wife, who has been here before, warned me that I would be overwhelmed and might cry.  I was so overwhelmed I had to get into an ambulance, but more on that later.

to accomplish is go ice diving. This isn’t an easy thing to try and do -

The dry suit might be one of the most vital things that you need when beneath the water. It is created to stretch o

Travel honchos in the travel and tourism industry are running a bit scared.

With all the hand-wringing about climate change/global warming, the execs wondered if they are about to become the next Exxon Valdez of travel, villains in the making: major contributors to global pollution.

Will the government, they worried, come out with a slogan: “Save the Planet. Travel Less?“

Jack London and Me

9008581285?profile=originalAs I trotted behind my guide along the trails that Jack London once rode, I imagined myself as one of the many friends he led on horseback rides through his 1,400-acre Beauty Ranch in the early 1900s. We galloped through stands of eucalyptus, madrona, and towering redwood trees that shaded fern-filled glens just as Jack described them in his novel The Valley of the Moon. Delighted with each new vista I, too, felt “vitalized, organic” as I overlooked vineyards in their tidy rows stretching to the
