When you visit Pretoria, South Africa, (or the renamed Tshwane, South Africa) I recommend a walk through the grounds and gardens that surround the Union Buildings. The location serves as the republic’s executive capital, but achieved its global fame in May of 1994. As I walked the grounds, part of me just admired the beauty of […]
A New USA USA USA chant needed for World Cup Matches?
After attending USA vs England in Rustenburg, South Africa I became aware once again that my national team’s chant of ” USA…USA…USA” needs a friend. In a nation that celebrates variety and creativity, I believe us Americans can sing more than just our “go to USA…” at the stadium. In fact, many other fans from […]
Sunset Sunday – Puerto Escondido
Simply known as Puerto. The sleepy fishing village in Oaxaca, Mexico also claims home to the Mexican Pipeline. A perfect pacific Mexican escape. I enjoyeda long weekend on the coastal beach town of “Puerto” when I called Mexico City my home. And although I prefer the Mazatlan native “el Pacifico,” I can hardly disagree that the […]
South Africa Continues to Heal Through Sports
“This is the first time I ever saw so many whites in Soweto,” a smiling store owner said to the local news. I agree, this was news. Orlando Stadium, located in Soweto, the all black suburb of Johannesburg and the epicenter of the student uprising of 1976 recently hosted an all South African Super 14 Rugby […]
Sunset Sunday – Oxford, England (season2)
This past April my grade school best friend provided me a stunning tour of Oxford University. He studies there to complete his Masters in Archeology. On the walkabout town, he pointed out so many points of interest. Places of historical significance, literary hangouts, and even Harry Potter film sites. On the tour, one could really feel […]
Craig’s Famous Fish Sandwich
I’ll admit I consider myself both adventurous and educated when it comes to cuisine. An expert? Maybe, maybe not? But more importantly – I enjoy a good meal. Yes, I crave culinary creations of all kinds. Heck, at times, it almost seems as needed as the air I breathe. And through my travels I discovered […]
The Shanghai Surprise; Shanghai Metro and the Drunken Shrimp
Shanghai surprises. When you walk the city you know you are not in Kansas. My friend compares it to another planet. He says it’s Mars. It’s not, but it sure is different. Very different. Different architecture, different customs, different language. But perhaps the biggest difference for me came when I sat down for dinner. The […]
Sunset Sunday – Happy Mother’s Day
The sunset holds magic and memories. Many times I am fortunate enough to share that magic and memories with my Mom. And many of those occur when I visit the Florida Keys. My most recent trip to the Florida Keys, however, I learned that a member of the community had passed away. My parents knowing […]
