International Travel, Things I Love

  Two years in a row, a stop in Hong Kong ended up being for a very short period of time. Compared to the last year’s visit — just a six-hour plane change en route home from Johannesburg — this year’s 26 hours was a joy! I wish I could take credit for the stop, but it […]

International Travel, Wining/Dining

When one is already in an area of the world (in this case, the Indian Ocean southwest of India), adding on another segment in the “area” makes a lot of sense. At least to me and the hubby… To clarify — and if you’ve been “virtually” traveling on this trip with us — you know […]

Why is the drive from Ranthambhore to Jaipur nearly four hours in length when it is only about 100 miles (180 km)? Because a “major” road in India can mean just two lanes in each direction. Mind you, few drivers actually pay attention to traffic lanes, not to mention dodging all the animals, motorbikes, and enormous […]

It’s likely that people travel to Ranthambhore, India, for reasons other than seeing Bengal Tigers in the National Park (there are just 58 in the area according to the most recent census; nearly 4000 total in the country), but I’m not sure why. Perhaps for the sole purpose of visiting Oberoi Vanyavilas, indeed a spectacular property […]
