“One Night In Bangkok” (Southern Thailand – December 21, 2008 to December 28, 2008)
The taxi driver pointed to the alley way. This didn’t look like the street we arrived to the Baan Chantra in. So it looked like we were had and now we had to figure out where we were and how to get…
St Lucia Itinerary – November 26, 2008 to December 1, 2008
This itinerary covered our visit to St Lucia over the Thanksgiving Weekend. Due to the national holiday, we only needed to take one day off work, and it turned out that the short Thanksgiving week was not a bad time to travel abroad…
Diamond Falls

Toraille Falls
Toraille Falls is one of the easier waterfalls to visit given that it’s well signed with a pretty roomy car park. After getting through the entrance hut and paying the entrance…

Sault Falls (also known as Errard Falls as well as Dennery Falls) is perhaps St Lucia’s most scenic waterfall falling some 15-20m over a rounded cliff. It’s one of the few…
Anse La Raye Falls
Anse La Raye Falls is a pretty cascade inland from the small, but charming fishing town of Anse La Raye on the western side of the island. Of the handful of falls we’ve seen…
“Big Bamboo” (St Lucia – November 27, 2008 to December 1, 2008)
I had never driven on a 4wd road quite like this before. There were long, curvy, and steep stretches where some parts of the road were so badly beat up that they put concrete rails in which you…

Kaieteur Falls Itinerary – August 30, 2008 to September 1, 2008

Kaieteur Falls
Kaieteur Falls is Guyana’s greatest scenic wonder. The Potaro River is said to drop some 221m with a width of nearly 100m (though rainy-season dimensions of 741ft high and 370ft wide…
Orinduik Falls
Orinduik Falls was included as a throw-in for our day tour to Kaieteur Falls. It was a waterfall that contrasted Kaieteur in many ways. For starters, this was a wide, multi-tiered series of…
“Just Now” (Kaieteur Falls – August 30, 2008 to September 1, 2008)
