When donkeys brought water to Willemstad

April 6, 2020 Todd DeFeo
When visitors look to visit Curaçao today, they don’t need to worry about the availability of water on the island. However, turn back the clock to the early and middle years of the 20th century, and water was a more precious resource.

Gare du Nord

The Chunnel is the way to go for traveling between London and Paris

March 30, 2020 Sightseers’ Delight
Taking the train a relaxing way to travel while on vacation, and the high-speed train from London to Paris is no exception.

March 23, 2020 Todd DeFeo
Of all the sites to see and do in this lovely paradise getaway, one of my favorites is in the heart of Willemstad.

Globe Theatre brings Shakespeare’s plays to life as writer intended

March 2, 2020 Sightseers’ Delight
Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre is one of the best, if not most Intense, ways to experience a play just as 17th century audiences would have.

Roman Baths

Bath is a perfect side trip on a visit to London

February 17, 2020 Todd DeFeo
The one-of-a-kind Roman baths sit in the middle of the city and like they were 2,000 years ago remain a centerpiece of the town and are a must-see for anyone on holiday in England.

Queenstown, New Zealand

A visit to Queenstown for the non-adrenaline junkie

January 27, 2020 Todd DeFeo
Queenstown is quite different from many others in New Zealand. It is a resort town and home to many adventure activities. For the non-adrenaline junkie, the city can provide a bit of a jolt.

Leaning Tower of Pisa
Commentary

Why do people always want to do this to the Leaning Tower of Pisa?

January 6, 2020 Todd DeFeo
People have always tried to correct the lean of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But, without the tilt, would as many people visit this famous tower? Probably not.

Take a trip ‘over the garden wall’ on the Otago Central

December 30, 2019 Todd DeFeo
Aotearoa has an incredible way of surprising and inspiring. Every turn seems to lead to a more stunning vista. And, a trip over the Otago Central Railway aptly proves this.

Three (of many) ways to enjoy Auckland, the City of Sails

December 16, 2019 Todd DeFeo
It’s a mix of the city’s culture, its history and its feeling of remoteness that make Auckland unique. It seems like many people who come to New Zealand make a beeline for the remote hiking tracks. Worthy as they are, don’t sleep on Auckland.

Commentary

Taking the long road to Christchurch

December 9, 2019 Todd DeFeo
With each snap of the shutter, I convinced myself we just encountered the most beautiful vista. But we were proven continuously wrong. I would say disappointed, but nothing was disappointing about the drive.
