The Bahamas are living islands, ever growing. It makes sense, then, that coral reefs and snorkeling lie feet from the beaches.
Greece: A History | Greece
There’s something beautifully tragic about Greece—foreshadowed in the work of Euripides or Sophocles—that’s both enchanting and sad.
Bahamas | Day 8: Swaggering Through Marina Village
With its colorful facade and live music, the Marina Village seems a world away—instead of next door—from the rest of Atlantis.
Bahamas | Day 7: Straw Market Haggling
I’m not the haggling type, but you don’t want to disappoint the denizens of the Straw Market.
Spies of the Balkans | WWII
Costa Zannis is helped, and sometimes hindered, by a cast of characters who show that heroism is something that regular people can do on a regular basis during extraordinary circumstances.
Bahamas | Food, Lovely Food
Kim’s cooking was a food-spiration. I think I might have wept a little.
Bahamas | Day 6: Fish Fry
When it comes to food, leave Paradise Island.
Bahamas | Day 5: Once Upon a Fort
If you look hard enough, you’ll find a castle in any country. This one wasn’t protected by knights, though; it was protected by a Howitzer.
Bahamas | Day 4: Enjoying the View
When it comes to a vacation in paradise, I’m the dig-your-toes-into-the-sand, observe-the-marine-life, enjoy-the-view type.
Fat Moments
We want fat moments. Fat full-bodied moments nourish our souls, our daily lives. Such moments bring learning moments and beauty. They bring joy.
Bahamas | Day 3: Digging The Dig
The Dig brought out my child-like enthusiasm. Even adults need a little mystery and magic in their lives, a “what if” to get the rainbow-inducing, creative gears churning in their heads.
Bahamas | Day 2: Hug a Dolphin
Hugging a dolphin is even more therapeutic than playing with puppies, if you can fathom such a thing.
