Trip to Japan (August '03)

Link: Photos from my trip to Japan in August 2003. 

I took a "Japan Sampler" tour of Japan with General Tours. (That tour is no longer offered.) The tour was 9 days, and I added non-tour days in Tokyo before and after the tour.

Cities I've visited

So much of the world still to see!

Trip to British Columbia (summer '06)

Link: Photos from Rodney and Victor's trip to British Columbia in July-August 2006.

Victor loves bears. Since he can't get a tourist visa to come to the U.S., we couldn't go to Alaska. So we decided on B.C., in particular Knight Inlet Lodge.

I put together a trip that took us from Mexico City direct to Vancouver. We stayed in Vancouver before and after our trip to Knight Inlet.

We had a great time. In addition to seeing bears every day in Knight Inlet, we saw orcas and beautiful scenery.

Victor had also never eaten salmon, and loved it.

In Vancouver, we were there for the gay pride parade and some of the annual Celebration of Light, an international "pyro-musical fireworks competition," including Mexico's show, which won it all.
