Holy Week in the Philippines

By Raoul Pascual
in :  World Travel

In fact, the reason there are so many religious festivals in the Philippines is because creating festivals was part of the Spanish strategy for conquest: Instead of a prolonged bloody war, the Spaniards realized the locals loved festivals; so by creating more festivals more and more locals salivated to participate in the merriment and this resulted in fewer unrest.

Demanding a Pay Raise

By Raoul Pascual
in :  World Travel

Raoul’s Two Cents: March 28, 2025 Should We Be Scared of AI? WARNING: Some religious talk. Please move on to the jokes if this isn’t “your thing.” Our church did a reenactment of what the Old Testament High Priest did during Yom Kippur — the killing of the goats, the ram and sprinkling of their blood 7 times on the …

Dining in Irish Castles

By Richard Carroll
in :  World Travel

The grassy smell of earth is steadfast while the swirling rhythms of Ireland are creating an ecstatic visual harmony, as a wash of air ruffles the trees. The sea, mutating from turquoise to deep blue, to hues of green, is etched and sliced by the wind with little streaks of warmth, as the sun beats a ceaseless tempo. The Irish landscape opens to mossy hillsides, thick woodlands, a canopy of leafy trees lining the roadway, lush fields with grazing horses' tails twitching, and small fishing villages with small-town charm.

Magnificent Milan—at the NH Collection President Hotel

By Ruth J. Katz
in :  World Travel

I gasped audibly when I entered my room at the NH Collection Milano President Hotel. The view that greeted me through a wall of glass (and beyond which, to boot, there was a sliver of a cozy terrace) was of a gleaming Duomo, sparkling in the sunshine, its gingerbread spires arching toward for the sun. The vista was so spectacular that had the hotel forgotten to put a bed in my room, it would not have mattered!

Sunset at the Palms: Getting One’s Goat in Jamaica

By Fyllis Hockman
in :  World Travel

By Fyllis Hockman – I was delighted when my husband and I received Betty’s invitation to join her for a picnic at the Sunset at the Palms Resort in Negril, Jamaica. The setting was lush, the food and wine enticing. Conversation, though, was a tad strained. But then her recent history was a bit dicey. Recently married at the time, …

London & Greenwich England: View from the Water

By Tony Chisholm of the "Canadian Connection"
in :  World Travel

The application required a lot of personal information and a weird session where you put your cell phone on the passport so the information on the chip in the passport can be loaded into the ETA application and in reverse, the application and approval is loaded back into your passport. Spooky, but it worked.
