Tulum. A two hour drive south from the Cancun airport on highway 307 (the only road) transports travelers to a true Mexican Oasis. Originally popular because of its Mayan coastal ruins (a post classical period settlement) the destination provides relaxing eco-friedly retreats. A 9km stretch of boutique and chic cabanas and hotels attract visitors from […]
Back to School in Zimbabwe
In a country where a $50,000,000,000,000 dollar bill might get you $1 USD from a tourist (only for a souvenir, the currency is worthless) and unemployment reaching 90% in some areas, the future might seem bleak. In fact most tourists don’t seem to travel anywhere outside the Victoria Falls area along the Mighty Zambezi for […]
Sunset Sunday – The Mighty Zambezi, Zimbabwe-Zambia
In description, few people or places receive the word Mighty with regularity. When describing rivers I only knew one before my trip to Africa, the mighty Mississippi. But as an alliteration fan myself with my writing it seemed to make sense. But when African’s described the rivers of Africa, not once did the guides or […]
Taking a Pint South African Style – Umqombothi
Umqombothi. Say that three times. In fact even say it once. Not easy. But a lot easier to drink? Well maybe not, but it’s an adventure. After my 1/2 day tour via Acacia Africa that took me to visit the District Six Museum and a local township outside of Cape Town, our last stop, not like any […]

A Walk through the Huguenot Memorial in Franschhoek, South Africa
A visit to Cape Town or South Africa that matter is not complete without a trip to the country’s wineries. On the Blue Train you pass straight through the heart of the countryside dedicated to producing some of the best wines I ever tasted. But you need to get up close and visit the towns. […]
Sunset Sunday – Camps Bay, Cape Town, South Africa
As an American, the Atlantic represents the sunrise, the Pacific, the sunset. But when one travels east, you can witness the sun set on the Atlantic. Although technically, my African adventures would not mark my first sunset on the Atlantic Ocean, (e.g. sunset in Sebastian, Spain), it would mark the first time I really thought […]
Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa
A trip up the cable car to Table Mountain is one of the highlights of visiting Cape Town. And if it’s clear in the morning, you must consider making the trip that day as weather can change quickly on the Cape. Once above on a clear day you can see for miles in every direction. A […]
