Halong Bay Travel Information

 

Majestic and mysterious, inspiring and imperious: words alone cannot do justice to the natural wonder that is Halong Bay. Imagine 3000 or more incredible islands rising from the emerald waters of the Gulf of Tonkin and you have a vision of breathtaking beauty.

I skipped down the stairs of our hotel, the Mont Clare, in fairly fashionable Merrion Square on a pharmacy mission.

I turned the corner, passed an antiquated, rather haphazard shop, and stopped.

A white-thatched, distinguished gentleman was sitting behind a counter, reading out loud to a few customers.

I stopped to listen.

It turns out this was the pharmacy I was looking for: Sweny’s.

Here in a 12 by 14 foot space, the gentleman reader, was one P.J. Murphy r

What Is Small-Ship Cruising Like?

by Shirley Linde

9008658476?profile=originalA small ship is part cruise ship and part private yacht. You have many of the advantages of cruising, but you can go to remote locations and out-of-the-way ports where big ships can’t go.

As with all things, when you first start out, you make some stupid mistakes that you learn from and move on and they help you grow. Well, I've made some mistakes in my writin

What to tell you. For starters, don't drive in. Don't do it.

the Museo de Uffizi, if you can't get in the Academia to see the real one.
