The Canadian Museum for Human Rights, as seen from the main entrance for those not in groups and those who are not physically challenged.
When I started setting up my around the world trip, exactly how I was going to get from New Zealand back to Europe was a bit unclear. After doing some […]
I would post photos and do other things here, but the Internet access at my current hotel is, in a word, terrible. The next time I expect to have decent Internet access is Saturday evening.
In addition to coming to American Samoa in order to be here, I thought that while here, I would attempt […]
This is Goat Island Point on Pago Pago Harbor, as seen from my hotel room balcony.
Thanks to the magic of 35 minutes on Polynesian Airlines, from Today to Yesterday (or, as I now think of it, from Tomorrow to Today), I am having a second Monday evening – yesterday I was on a […]
My sunset for Monday, April 20th.
Since Friday evening, I’ve been off the grid, enjoying myself at the Taufua Beach Fales located in Samoa.
Morning at the Taufua Beach Fales.
Now that it’s evening – Tuesday fast approaching with its onward travel – I want to post a few photos – and remark […]
Entering CupNoodles Museum
I spent Thursday taking a walk around Yokohama. Before today, as far as I was concerned, Yokohama might as well be Tokyo – but it’s not, in the way that Hartford is not New York City.

While in Japan I attended three baseball games – on […]

It’s not that I forgot to blog about Seoul, it’s that I ran out of time and there were other, more pressing things.
That said, Seoul is a city I could imagine myself living in. It’s clean, interesting, full of friendly people, and easy […]
With all fifty states, the District of Columbia, and Guam under my belt, it occurred to me that I might as well go for it all and visit all of the inhabited US territories – there are five of them, including Guam and, this week’s stop, the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands.
It wasn’t until […]
Getting the pink one in place, ready for the day’s celebrations.
Last Sunday, as promised, I made it to the Festival of the Steel Phallus in suburban(ish) Tokyo, specifically Kawasaki.
Ever had a friend who was a total dickhead? This guy’s friends can honestly say so.
Deciding what time to arrive was tricky. […]
The Hinode American Memorial is in the middle of a traffic circle along Broadway.
I spent today – Easter Monday – popping over to Tinian Island – the immediate neighbor to Saipan, which is, for the record, where I am right now. Visiting Saipan, and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, gets me one […]
