10 Times Tourists Completely Ruined Priceless History
There’s something magnetic about ancient architecture and historic artifacts. Whether it’s a crumbling amphitheater, a sacred temple high in the mountains, or a centuries-old painting in a quiet chapel, we’re drawn to these places. Maybe it’s the mystery. Maybe it’s the legends. Maybe it’s the simple realization that these structures have survived hundreds, sometimes thousands of years.

Where Have all the Travel Blogs Gone?
I went to India recently. As most everyone does, I needed a visa, but unlike most people, I couldn't take advantage of their handy eVisa. Instead, I had to trek into town (1 hour) to wait in line (1.5 hours) to get in to be seen (1 hour), only to be told that I was missing the documents necessary to apply for a visa. What?! I had everything listed on the website?! Too bad, come back again tomorrow to do this all over again.

What to Do in Lisbon When It Rains
Rain in Lisbon doesn’t have to ruin your trip. In fact, after three winter visits — and more than a few umbrellas sacrificed to sudden Atlantic downpours — I’ve learned that the showers here are usually fast, dramatic, and intense. The trick is simple: duck inside somewhere beautiful, wait it out with a coffee or a slow wander, then head back to the cobbled streets once the sky clears and everything smells freshly washed.

Well that week certainly happened. It went by very fast and I forgot to write stuff down. Partially out of how busy I was and partially because nothing really happened.

Diana The Musical
Diana, the musical is really princess. Diana‘s life story told in musical form. I had the honor and privilege of seeing the musical production when it came to Netflix and it was worth the wait. One time I was in New York City and I happen to find a brochure advertising the musical play And that’s how I found out that they were doing Diana the musical and that’s how I found out even existed at all. I would imagine it was on West End too, which is the London equivalent to Broadway whereas Broadway is the American equivalent to the west end and vice versa. Diana, the musical is really really good. The songs are great and this is the new age of Broadway because they they’ve actually found new ways to do the set designs and what not it’s very futuristic. It’s very cool as it should be. The singers are spot onand it all works very well.
