The Quite Amazing Viva Elvis by Cirque du Soleil Show

All the Cool Kids are Doing It: A 2011 Retrospective
This has been a truly, truly wonderful year. It didn’t start out that way. Sometime last January, I got punched in the stomach with the news that the travel company I was writing for was doing away with the travel blog I had painstakingly designed and maintained for almost two years. Not only did they … Continue reading
