Harvard University Tour

Boston Ma Harvard Tour
 No trip to the Boston area is complete without a stop in Cambridge, home to the world-renowned Harvard University. We took a quick bus ride to Harvard Square, a bustling hub of shops, cafes, and street performers. Just steps from the Red Line subway station, we met our student tour guides for an insightful walk through the university’s historic campus.

Our tour began in Harvard Yard, the oldest part of the campus, surrounded by red-brick buildings and towering trees. The guides, current Harvard students, shared fun facts and campus legends, making the tour both educational and entertaining.

Canyoneering San Antonio Falls

nullCan you imagine yourself hiking up a steep hill, reaching the top of a waterfall, then repelling down the face of a cliff and through the waterfall? Then you should go on a canyoneering trip.

Canyoneering (Canyoning) is a sport in which you explore canyons by hiking, scrambling, repelling, rafting, swimming and waterfall jumping. See Wikipedia for more.

To accomplish the repelling part, you need to know about ropes, carabiners and ASAPs. But if you are not a rock climber, you can still enjoy a canyoneering adventure by going with an experienced outfitter and letting them do the technical parts.

Las Vegas Family Fun

Las Vegas has been changing in past years and becoming more family oriented. You can still find all the partying and gambling - and other sins - if you are looking for it. But you can also find a lot of wholesome fun for the whole family. A lot of those activities and attractions are free or inexpensive but expect to pay a premium for major attractions.  

Exploring the Oregon Coast

Tillamook Head From Seaside   Oregon By MMy wife and I decided to escape the city and head to the Oregon Coast for a day of exploration, scenic views, and fresh ocean air. The drive from Portland to the coast is an adventure in itself, and our stops along the way made it unforgettable.

The journey began on Highway 26, aptly named the Sunset Highway, a scenic 90-minute drive west of Portland. As we wound our way through the rolling foothills of the Coast Range, we were greeted by lush forests and occasional glimpses of open fields. The roadside viewpoints offered peeks at the sprawling landscape, and the changing terrain hinted at the coastline waiting for us just ahead. With the windows down and the crisp air filling the car, we couldn’t wait to reach the beach.

Big Bear Lake

Big Bear Valley is well known for its winter sports fun. But after the snow melts and the skiers flee the area, a whole new adventure awaits you.

During the summer months, the ski resorts offer more adventures like scenic chairlift rides, slides, and hiking trails.

The valley and mountains around it are full of hiking and biking trails waiting to be explored. Many trails start near the “Big Bear Discovery Center”.
