City Rumble – Lahore Versus Amritsar
Yes folks, this time we are rumblin’ in the Punjab! Two cities that haven’t been fersatured in a rumble pre-today step up to the plate, or perhaps I should say ‘step up to the wicket’, as two fierce rivals in India and Pakistan lock horns in a cross border stoush step to ignite like a powderkeg!
On This Day – Hoi An to Hanoi by bus, 2011
Today I’m looking back to Vietnam and 2011 again. This day, the 24th of March, but in 2011, was a day of travel. I left somewhere in the middle of the day to take my bus to Hanoi, from Hoi An.
The Amazing Race – Good or Bad?

I’ve Been to Six of Seven Wonders of the World! (and I didn’t know it!)
In 2007 100 million people voted to decree which were the new ‘Seven Wonders of the World’, and they decided on – the Pyramids (Egypt), Petra (Jordan), the Colosseum (Italy), The Taj Mahal (India), The Great Wall of China (not sure which country), The Statue of Christ the Redeemer (Brazil) and Chichen Itza (Mexico). Which ones have I visited?
