The Good, the Bad, and the Bizarre in 2009
Today is the second day of the second decade in a new millennium. It seems like a most auspicious date to reflect on 2009 and focus on my resolutions and goals for 2010.

We traveled to Osaka and spent time wandering lost in a land of porn and Pachinko. Kyoto delivered a splendid castle, a [...]
And On The First Day….
There are several ways to see Angkor Wat. Some people start small and work their way up to the colossal grand-daddy of them all, the megalithic structures of enigmatic Angkor Wat.

Reflections of Angkor
With my three day pass to Angkor Wat. It’s almost impossible to post pictures of Angkor Wat. There are millions of images of Angkor available on the web and none of them really do it any justice. Angkor is indescribable…but I’m going to give it a try. The best part of the day to [...]
