Seeing America

South Georgia city of Folkston lures railfans from far and wide

February 24, 2020 Todd DeFeo

Once upon a time, this small town of 3,300 people was best known as “The Gateway to the Okefenokee.” Today, to a different kind of visitor, it’s known as a train lover’s paradise.

Roman Baths
Globetrotting

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.

Erie Canal
Seeing America

Taking in history on the Erie Canal

February 10, 2020 Todd DeFeo

The 363-mile-long Erie Canal stretches from the Hudson River near Albany to the Niagara River near Buffalo. The best way to experience the canal is from a boat on the water.

Las Vegas

A guide to Las Vegas for those who don’t gamble

February 3, 2020 Todd DeFeo

I have no problem with Las Vegas. But as someone who doesn’t gamble all that much, spending time in a casino isn’t really my scene.

Queenstown, New Zealand
Globetrotting

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.

Seeing America

Why you need to take the ferry when you visit New York City

January 20, 2020 Todd DeFeo

Ferry service in New York City is, at times, maligned. While not its intended function, ferries in the Big Apple are a great way to take in the cityscape. Plus, it’s much more cost-effective than many scenic cruises.

London Canal Museum
Seeing America

Finding quirky delights where you least expect to find them

January 13, 2020 Todd DeFeo

To me, the real delight of any trip is finding that off-beat place, perhaps somewhere that doesn’t quite make the guidebooks.

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.

Otago Central Railway
Globetrotting

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.

Globetrotting

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.
