557. Paris, Amsterdam & Brussels (August 1997)

Three capitals. Ten days. Pre-Euro. All three cities were visited during the height of an August heatwave.

We landed in Brussels then scooted by train to Paris. Hunkering down in a small hotel on a pedestrian-only street, we set out to explore Paris' outdoor museum - its streets. After five days of non-stop walking and gaping, we hopped back on the train and headed to Amsterdam.

Amsterdam: Van Gogh, ginniver and coffee houses. A bicycle trip to the windmill-landscaped outskirts capped our 3-day mission.

Then off to Brussels and Brugge. Belgium was definitely a letdown after Paris and Amsterdam. Pretty but boring. Next time, encore de Paris!

559. Peninsular Malaysia (August 2007)

White sands, towering skyscapers, green tea-leaf carpeted hills and luminous fireflies. In ten days we sampled some of the amazing diversity of mainland Malaysia.

Eight years and one currency crisis have passed since we last visited Malaysia. The country is charging into the 21st century. Kuala Lumpur is no longer a Singapore wannabe but a challenger. Malaysia plans to be a major world economic force by 2020. It appears to be almost there...way ahead of schedule. Watch out.

560. ELGIN CATHEDRAL (on our way to Inverness)

Elgin Cathedral had some very interesting statues and burieal crepts.
It also had the best maintained lawns. Dennis being a gardener noticed this.
We had a very pleasant visit here too since the sun did try to shin for us while we were there. CLICK HERE to learn more about Elgin Cathedral.

561. Mandalay, Myanmar (July 2007)

Mandalay. Its name alone conjures up the essence of the exotic in every Westerner's imagination. Unfortunately, the only thing exotic about modern-day Mandalay is its name.

Electricity works but only intermitently; poverty looms large but safety is never a concern; cars exist but are as rare as a cool breeze. Manadalay is a fascinating wreck of a city.

On a clear day climb up temple-encrusted Mandalay Hill for panoramic area views. Then take in an evening marionette performance or laugh your way through the non-stop political satire of a Moustache Brothers show.

Even better are the sites surrounding the city: the ancient cities of Ava and Mingun, the scenic U Bein's bridge or the Mahagandhayon Monastery where over 1,000 monks can be seen going through their daily rituals.

562. Bagan, Myanmar (July 2007)

Bagan - Myanmar's premiere archeological destination - streams out over 25 square miles and contains an astonishing array of more than 2,000 temples.

Not as well known as Cambodia's Angkor Wat but every bit as impressive. There is nothing like surveying the Bagan plain at twilight. Nothing. The sun's final rays plant chiaroscurist kisses on all the temples within its reach. Beautiful and calming.

The Myanmar government unfortunately is in the process of renovating - not restoring - many of the temples at Bagan. The result is a Disneyfication (pretty, but characterless) of these historic gems. Go before more irreparable damage is done.
