Secretly, I did admire you for knowing a lot of expensive places here, now it's no longer a secret

Take care

Okay, I'm assuming that Boracay is a part of Aklan province? I love Boracay. It's such an under-rated and beautiful island. It would be a perfect retirement location for me (well, for a few months each year anyway), esp some of the quieter parts of the island on the opposite side from White Beach.

Sure, Rose ... when I'm over, hang out with me for a leisurely afternoon in Makati, at http://www.buddhabarmanila.com/

Yes, Boracay is in Malay, Aklan.
Another expensive restaurant in Makati ... I don't think I can afford that, LOL!!!

Take care

I just returned from a trip to Oregon/Washington and came across so many beautiful places on the trip!

Multnomah Falls - Oregon
Horsetail Falls - Oregon
First & Second Beach - La Push, Washington
Sol Duc Hot Springs - Washington

The entire drive down the coast of Oregon is just beautiful, so many beaches and places to stop, really it is a must do, with a few days planned for it to really have the time to stop and see all the amazing sights.

As well, the redwood forests in California are great. The Avenue of the Giants is so beautiful, what an amazing forest and drive to take with tons of hikes and camping options as well.

I'm thinking of catching the train up to Bangkok for a few days next month during Eid ul-Fitr/school holidays. Leave either the Saturday or the Sunday afternoon by train.

I'm not sure that I'll go out of Bangkok because I don't want to rush around like a crazy person and maybe this will be a taster for more visits to Thailand.

Any tips/suggestions for Bangkok?

It wouldn't be everyone's favourite part of Bangkok but I love the Sukhumvit area of the city. It's well worth exploring and the night life there is great also.

Siam Square is also worthwhile visiting - if you like shopping, then you NEED to visit Siam Paragon that is located there. It's spectacular.

LGBT-scene is a bit underground but not bad in Bangkok. The butch-femme scene, or tom-dee scene in Thai terminology, is actually strong with a number of specific events and clubs. I know some tom-dee folk in Bangkok so if you're visiting Bangkok and want to meet some friendly faces, then let me know and I'll see if I can put you in touch.

It's almost pillow time for me tonight....
and because I often dream one day of visiting France, I found this lovely picture of a beautiful home in a rural French countryside. I wish I knew more about my father's mother - she was born in France and everytime we had a family reunion, my aunts, uncles and cousins would remark to me about how much I looked like my father's mother (Vera). I know that as I age, I see that I look like her - more and more, as time goes by.

*SoOoOooOo...*

I'm going here tonight in my dreams: I do believe that it's a perfectly gorgeous place to visit.

Aruba is one of my favourite places to visit. Warm water, not humid, out of the hurricane belt, same temperature year round, beautiful sand.

Last year I was 4x4ing on Aruba's North shore on Christmas day, it was a great way to spend Christmas.

Been twice and will definitely go back.

Although Hawaii is a close second.
