The Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) in Boston is one of the most comprehensive art museums in the world, and a must-visit for art lovers and curious travelers alike. With a collection that spans continents and centuries, the museum offers an inspiring journey through human creativity—from ancient artifacts to contemporary masterpieces.
It’s a park. It’s a beach. It’s a campground. It’s all of the above and much more.
San Clemente State Beach is one of the rare places where everything aligns perfectly to make your visit unforgettable. You will want to come back again and again.
The “State Beach” offers campsites atop the bluffs with breathtaking views of the ocean. The camp has around 160 campsites which are divided into groups, RV, and tent areas. The campground is beautifully laid out with paved roads connecting the various areas. Each campsite has a fire ring, picnic table, shade ramada, and shade trees - with drinking and washing water nearby. Bathrooms – with hot showers - are never too far.
Ocotillo Wells is part of the much larger Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. It was set aside for off-road vehicle recreation. It is a great place to experience the solitude of the beautiful desert, gaze at the stars, or go wild with your 4-wheel-drive SUV, ATV, or dirt bike.
The park is a 2-3 hour drive from LA and Orange Counties but closer to San Diego and Palm Springs.
You probably want to camp for the night. Depending on the weather, you can make it as casual or as luxurious as you like. My son and I used to sleep in the back of my SUV – with the seats pulled down. It does get cold at night, so make sure you have good sleeping bags or thick blankets.
Ancient sand still dusts the boots from my previous journeys across Egypt. This remarkable country is far more than a single city or a cluster of museum displays. It is a living, breathing corridor of human history stretching from the bustling streets of Cairo down the Nile River to the grand temples of Luxor.
Having explored these sacred grounds extensively and documented both pharaonic monuments and modern neighborhood rhythms in my writing, I felt an overwhelming pull to return. This time, I am bringing you along to experience it all firsthand.
This is not your average circus act. From the first opening moment of the show, I was enthralled with the man-made lake on the stage and the enchanted creatures that lurk in every corner.
Like any circus act, it has its share of high-flying acrobats, contortionists, balancing acts, gravity-defying swings and clowns. But “O” manages to merge those traditional acts with the exotic element of aquatic magic to produce something totally new and awe-inspiring.
