I must apologize for not posting anything yesterday. I do have a good excuse, really! I was at the grocery store last night making some last minute purchases, when I noticed that they were selling bottles of Primeur Beaujolais-Villages wine for less than 2€. I bought a bottle, brought it home, opened it, and promptly […] Being a good traveler, I often visit the websites of major first world nations to find out what they think of my destinations. Since I’m leaving shortly on an extended trip, I decided to look up advice for one of my destinations from Major Nation #1: “You should be alert to the dangers of car […] Looking down… Originally uploaded by elmada.
