During my one night in Laos, I was lucky enough to catch the celebration of Diwali, the Festival of Lights.  In the evening I walked around to various temples that had been beautifully decorated with lights by the monks.  Most of the monks seemed reticent to have their photos taken, so I tried to focus … Continue reading »

Never Get Tired of NoLa

My most recent trip to New Orleans was mainly for Satchmo Summerfest and White Linen Night.  My 6:00 a.m. flight that Wednesday morning from San Francisco to Houston was not off to a good start.  I was, as usual, sitting in a window seat half asleep.  My stomach began cramping which led me to the … Continue reading »

Another Non-Traditional Thanksgiving

My friend from L.A. and I met up in Las Vegas for Thanksgiving again.  We both stayed at The Venetian.  I arrived on Wednesday morning; she arrived around noon.  Although The Venetian gave me early check-in, they put me in the Venezia Tower for the first time.  The room was perfectly fine, had I not … Continue reading »

Oh, My, My, Miami!

My last three birthdays have been spent out of the country.  This year I wanted to go somewhere warm with a beach, but not that far away.  Miami seemed to fit the bill, so I booked a trip using my Delta air miles. Getting there was a bit arduous.  It involved a midnight flight out … Continue reading »
