Water Water All Around

and not a drop to drink! My journey to Venezia was an amusing one. I had no idea the trains would be so full that I can't get tickets for the time that I needed... So how did I get there and what did I see?

Staying in A/C is Not Ideal for Travelling

Shanghai was hot, scorching hot. What is someone who melts in any sort of heat to do? Shopping, I guess.

Winter Wonderland: Whistler

Whistler does seem to have a longer "winter" than does home. If we got a foot of snow dumped on the ground the day before, we'd be stuck at home for a week. Luckily, that's not the case in Whistler.

Roma, Roma-ma

My flight to Rome from Eindhoven was cancelled courtesy of horrible weather, so I embarked on a 20 hour train ride instead. I don't regret being stubborn and spending a fortune on those train tickets, though. The Roman experience was more than worth it.

Added Jan 6, 2010, Under:

The Unknown World - Budapest

Added Jan 6, 2010, Under:

Starting on a slightly unrelated note, I wanted to show you some degree of insanity that exists within me. This is a screenshot of a travel app I use online... I think there might be something not quite right with my head, or just a complete disregard...

Trip Down Memory Lane: London

Added Jan 6, 2010, Under:

It has been 5 full years since I've last stepped foot into London. Not that London has changed that much, I don't think, but the feeling is completely different... or maybe it wasn't, I don't know. This time, I spent a day with Cambridge with two old...
