A bright blue sky has me on my bike, tootling around Valencia, taking side streets as they come, no direction known. Eventually I arrive at Cabañal market, a few streets short of the sea.
When I was last the market, about five years ago, it was on the verge of closing, and I seem to remember that it closed for a period because of the lack of custom. Obviously something happened because now it is a perfect example of the bustling Saturday food market.
There’s nothing here I can’t buy from Ruzafa market, only a three-minute walk from my home, other than horse meat, although I wasn’t tempted by the quality of produce on display at the Carne de Caballos stall as much as the smile of the spikey-blonde-haired lady who runs it. But I enjoy walking these places, watching shoppers making their selection, listening to the banter of the stall-holders, which, in the Central Market is more likely to be raised voices telling tourists not to take photos.
I get tempted by the bocadillos at El Marcado bar and cafeteria. Market bars are the perfect place for the solitary diner. In a restaurant the concentration is on the dining experience itself. You sit at a table for either two or more and the waiter removes the cutlery, napkins and glasses of your non-existent dining companions, emphasising that you are a solitary soul. As a once-upon-a-time restaurant reviewer I’m quite used to eating alone, and devoid of any shame I’d simply take out my notepad and write as I worked my way through the meal. I’ve eaten is some superb restaurants, but usually only in the company of a pen and paper – I’d much rather eat the most basic menu del día in the company of a friend, although these days my companion a table is usually a book. But at a market bar the food is simply an addition to the action. Shoppers and market people come and go, the act of eating is an on-the-move affair, which is why I’ve always liked them.
But I’m not the only one tempted by El Mercado, because all the stools at the aluminium bar are taken. I make another circuit of the market, but still no room at the inn, so I wander out into the square.
Apart from a few modern architectural excresences and bland facades, a good percentage of the buildings around the square are late Modernista, two-storeys above shops, with attractive pale green glazed tiling and cast iron balconies. In the paved and planted garden in the centre, where a slight breeze wafts the deep red flowers of the euphorbia, there’s an air of peacefulness.
For decades Valencia Town Hall, led by the formidable wicked witch, Mayoress Rita Barberá, has being trying to hack a swathe through the area, and with its usual monstrous conceit has just announced seven hundred thousand euros in the budget for 2015 to buy properties in Cabañal for demolition for the proposed extension of Avenida Blasco Ibañez, despite the national government and European Courts finding against her plan on the grounds of the architectural and historic importance of the area. She has dumped generations of problem families in Cabañal, refused locals planning licenses for repairs, bricked up perfectly liveable houses and demolished others overnight amid the fury of public opinion.
The square on which the market is built is one street away from the route of the proposed extension, which was planned to begin at Calle Millars and move north. On Calle Francesc Eixments, one of the narrow streets that cross Millars, are some perfect examples of two-storey Modernista houses where families have lavished their money and their love; not the exquisite tiles and floribunda plaster of some of the grander houses but a compact homeliness as suited the fishing community that lived there. On most streets the same pattern is repeated; bricked up and derelict cheek-by-jowl with lovingly cared for. The corrupt burghers of the city need look no further than Villajoyosa, a couple of hours south, to see where derelict streets and crumbling houses were turned into an attractive casco histórico, although rumour has it that there are ‘understandings’ that have to be accounted for as regards the block-headed refusal of the council to give up their single-minded rampage to get Blasco Ibañez connected to the prom. Given the back pocket filling of a number of senior politicians of the governing party, there might well be an element of truth in the rumour.
Her companion, obviously an estate agent, hears my questions and quickly ends his call, telling the lady that it will never happen, and besides, even if it did, the planned route has moved to the next junction, one hundred metres further north. Indeed, he added, it would be better for her because the area would be opened up and she could appreciate the new gardens that would be laid. Although I’m not sure how much that would compensate for the noise of the dual-carriageway, three lanes either side, that would be a hop-skip-and-barely-a-jump from her front door.
I wander back to the market and find a vacant seat at the bar of El Mercado. The list of bocadillos is a fine one; Brascada – ternera, jamon y cebolla; Canario – sobrasada, queso fresco y anchoas; Mexicana confuses me, with its ternera, cebolla, bacon y tobaco, until I realise that someone has rubbed the ‘s’ out of tabasco. I settle for Americana – pechuga, queso, bacon y salsa barbacoa, with a small bowl of bitter olives and a bitingly cold sparkling water.
While I eat, the market winds down. A stall holder from in front of the bar orders a gin and tonic, the bath-size version that used to be the norm until bars began adding an extra ice cube to the glass to disguise the smaller measures. He saunters between his glass and his stall as he packs away heads of lettuce, boxes of onions, nets of oranges and sacks of potatoes.
Lacking a sofa to siesta on, I sit on a bench in the park opposite the entrance to the market in the surprisingly warm mid-November sun. I take out my book to get lost in the skulduggery of 18th-century London, and slowly my eyes close.

In fact, the first three years of married life could easily be classified as one of the most difficult seasons of both our lives.
Our “honeymoon” phase ended during our actual honeymoon when both of our pasts reared their ugly heads into our current business. Then we came home to the needs of three displaced children, and a house full of unseen mold which caused severe illness for us. I ended up spending almost the entire first year in bed unable to accomplish even the simplest of tasks.
But, I classify difficulties of life it into three distinct types: good-hard, bad-hard and just plain hard. Let me clarify. Death, divorce (which for all practical and emotional purposes is death), sickness and loss of anything significant is sorrowfully difficult. Not that good can’t come out of them, but the pain we suffer during those times is awful at best and excruciating most of the time. Those situations are bad-hard.
Then there’s daily life which can be demanding. The end of the day after challenging work deals on three phones at once; children vomiting on the way to school; juggling the laundry, dishes, what-to-have-for-dinner-tonight; and four hours of kids’ homework that is only explained partially in the textbook? Exhausting and just plain hard, right?
Finally, we experience the worth-the-struggle kind of hard – or good-hard.
Ever been on a hike and you’re just about fifty feet from the top of the vista point? No view is visible yet, so you take it on faith that what you’ve anticipated based on your rock-climbing, mountain-hiking friend’s description will be as spectacular as they have asserted it will be. The rocky trail rolls out from under your feet with every other step reminding you that one careless placement of your boot clad foot could send you sprawling on your face or to your death if the worst case presented itself.
The splendor of a majestic scene spreads out before you.
Sunlight glistens like diamonds on the ocean as waves roll across the crescent shaped shore. A waterfall parachutes down the verdant cliff in the distance. You take in the view, savoring it as a good meal and drinking in the beauty as fine wine. Nothing about those last thirty grueling steps is remembered in that moment. And in that instant, it all became worth every painfully exerted step. That is good-hard.
These first few years have been good-hard. The way God brought Brendan and I together online was miraculous, and the challenging years we’ve faced so far have been as well. I believe God is still all about raising the dead kind of miracles, but the kind I’m talking about here are the everyday things that really don’t make sense, and shouldn’t happen, but they do anyway. Some people call them coincidence, but these “God things” are really just too coincidental and leave us marveling in a perplexed kind of awe.
That is what fairy tales are made of, and what our story is all about.
So what’s your miracle? How has something been good-hard for you?
Laura, I truly enjoy your candid writing. Keep up the great work.
I can’t tell you how much your comments mean to me. Thank you so much!

India "highlighted the interest of its energy companies to pursue opportunities of mutual interest in Qatar, with Qatar Petroleum and other companies, in order to jointly explore new fields as well as development of discovered oil and gas assets and exploit the existing resources of natural gas and crude oil in Qatar," said a joint statement issued after wide-ranging talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani. "The two sides agreed to focus on enhancing cooperation in energy, covering the areas of training and human resources development and cooperation in research and development and through promotion of joint ventures in petrochemical complexes and cooperation in joint exploration in India and other countries," the statement said. India invited Qatar to participate in the second phase of the strategic reserves storage facility being created in India, the statement said. The leaders also deliberated upon the need for strengthening bilateral cooperation in the financial services sector, including banking, insurance and capital markets . "They decided to expand cooperation between the financial institutions of the two countries like Securities and Exchange Board of India and the respective central banks," the statement said. Qatar is the largest supplier of LNG and LPG to India. The two sides also discussed various avenues for Qatari investments in India, particularly in different asset classes and various infrastructure sectors as well as disinvestment of Indian PSUs. The leaders agreed to increase the level of participation in infrastructure projects in both countries. An MoU was also signed between Qatar Investment Authority and External Affairs Ministry for investment in National Investment and Infrastructure Fund between the two countries that would facilitate foreign investment from the gas-rich Gulf state, the statement said.

Holiday Dining Options in Tokyo | H&R Group K.K.
Tokyo IS good food. In my opinion, the food in Tokyo is the best part of Tokyo! You can get pretty much anything in Tokyo, at any time, and Christmas Dinner is no exception. Whether you are searching for traditional holiday fare, or something a bit more trendy, there are hundreds, if not thousands of options to choose from in Tokyo.

They are assaulted on a daily basis by giant cruise ships, uncouth tourists, feral pigeons and flooding caused by high tides.
Now Venetians have declared war on a new foe – noisy suitcases on wheels.
Shopkeepers, cafe owners and residents say they are being driven half mad by the incessant rumble of visitors trundling their luggage along the city's narrow alleyways and up and down delicate stone bridges.
The wheeled suitcases are essential in a city without roads, where tourists have to reach their hotels either by water bus or by walking.
Now Venice council wants to introduce a ban on luggage equipped with hard rubber wheels, forcing the city's 27 million annual visitors to instead use suitcases that roll on air-filled, softer wheels that make less noise.

text: For over 10 years, Bobina (aka Moscow/LA based DJ & producer Dmitry Almazov) has been at the forefront of Russia’s electronic dance breakout. His DJ adventures have taken him around the planet numerous times, playing tent-pole events including Global Gatherings, A State Of Trance, Trance Energy, and many more. Spinning around 100 block-rock sets every year, it has seen DJ Mag rank and re-rank Bobina as one of the 100 biggest spinners in the world for the last 8 years running. On the production front he has released numerous singles and 5 critically acclaimed artist albums, all of which prompted Armin van Buuren & Ferry Corsten to call Bobina “one of the most talented music producers ever to come out of Russia”.

March 14th was of course Pi Day, and since we missed it due to work overload, it looks like we need to cover it now. Five questions about pie, coming your way. Enjoy!
1. As an American, we’re starting this quiz with a question about apple pie. Of course apple pie can be served with ice cream, but what other dairy product is sometimes served with apple pie?
2. Name the dessert seen here, which takes its name from a certain American geological feature.
3. In 2006, which pie was named as the official state dessert of Florida?
4. This is a picture of lemon meringue pie. Speaking of meringue, meringue is essentially a mixture of what two ingredients?
5. Name the British pie seen here, whose names is a portmanteau of two of its central ingredients.
Learned League precedent (Weird Foods 1DS, question 2) – The Turducken is so 2005. Created by pop-culture humorist Charles Phoenix, a new holiday tradition consists of a cherry pie, a pumpkin pie, and an apple pie, each baked into a different flavor of cake and stacked to form an imposing tower. What is this creation called?
Tomorrow: We’re heading back to Asia to pick up some Korean for our twelfth World Wednesday.

There are two big problems that people have with gluten free baked goods. The first is that they don’t really like the taste as a lot of bakers choose the wrong wheat flour substitute when baking. The other problem that people have with gluten free bakery is that they are not too high on the textured of the baked good. Once again, the choice of the wheat flour substitute is to be blamed. In addition to that, flaws in the baking technique can lead to a poor texture of the baked good. When you are baking gluten free, these are two issues that you need to address to make sure that your baked good does not turn out to be a complete disaster.
To understand why people have problems with the texture of gluten free baked items, you need to first know what gluten does to the texture of cake or bread. The purpose of gluten is to act like glue and improve the elasticity of the baked item. As a matter of fact, gluten comes from a root word that means “glue”. The proteins that are contained within gluten can arrange themselves to trap gas bubbles. It is this alignment that causes the bread to have a certain degree of elasticity. In the absence of gluten, it can be quite difficult to achieve the airy cell structure that we so commonly associate with beautifully baked bread and cakes.
Gluten free baking is not possible without the use of flour alternatives. Wheat flour is the primary source of gluten. If you use wheat in your bakery, you will have to consume gluten. Low gluten wheat flour is not really an option for people who are suffering from gluten intolerance or celiac disease. There was a time when the only wheat alternatives that you could find in the market were corn, rice, pea, potato and tapioca flour. These wheat substitutes aren’t always the best options when it comes to baking at home. Even when these ingredients are properly ground, the baked goods that are made with their flours tend to have a gritty or rubbery texture. The softness and stickiness that you associate with high quality bread is simply not present.
Thankfully for people with gluten intolerance, the gluten free industry has progressed in leaps and bounds over the last few years. To meet popular demand, manufacturers have come up with amazing alternatives for wheat flour that are much better ingredients for baking than the traditional flour alternatives mentioned above. For example, you can now use millet, amaranth, kasha, quinoa flour, coconut flour, nut flours, gluten free oats, bean flours and teff for baking. If you bake with these “new flours” you will discover that they have much better flavours and textures to offer to your baked goods. Moreover, you have products such as xanthan gum, guar gum and a host of other binders in the market that enhances the elasticity and taste of gluten free baked recipes.
Improving the texture of your gluten free baked goods requires a bit of effort and skill. It is all about getting your baking selections and technique spot on.
When a recipe calls for you to use milk or water, simply use buttermilk instead. The reason for that is because buttermilk offers a much finer and lighter overall texture. You can also use carbonated water in place of regular water in pancake recipes. The purpose of this change once again is to give the baked item a much lighter texture.
Unflavoured gelatine is a fantastic gluten free binding agent. People who have used unflavoured gelatine in their baking before report that this ingredient prevents crumbling of the bread, cookie, cake or pastry. The key here is to soften the gelatine in the liquid of the recipe before using it as an ingredient for baking.
Using a combination of gluten free flours can give you a much better texture than relying on a single flour to do the trick.
Xanthan gum or guam gum can be very important for baking certain gluten free items, especially those that are prone to crumbling. Make sure that you add the gum to the dry ingredients. It is worth noting that the xantham gum is a better option than the guam gum as the latter can cause stomach ache in certain people.
This is a very simple step that you should never ignore. Don’t start baking with the dough immediately. Let it rest for a period of at least 30 minutes at room temperature. The dough becomes softer during the resting period.

If you keep up health blogs, there's a good chance you've seen the word "candida" thrown around quite a bit; you can also have your pick of myriad "candida cleanses" in health food stores and online.
In popular alternative health care, "candida" can almost seem like a catchall diagnosis for a wide variety of health problems. Many people go so far to assume that when there's doubt about a condition's origins, it's candida.
For this reason, many are unsure of what candida is, or are skeptical of its existence and what it can do to your health. Let's cut through the candida confusion and get the facts.
Generally speaking, it's worth keeping in mind that candida overgrowth is one part of a larger gut imbalance (dysbiosis) problem, not the entire cause for all health problems.
It does us no good in the health community to over-generalize gut issues by attributing all chronic issues to candida overgrowth. It also does us no good to delegitimize well-documented gut dysbiosis and its real impact on your total health.
"Candida" is typically a shortened reference for the Candida albicans fungus, which is actually the most common yeast that can be found in small amounts of a healthy gastrointestinal system, a part of the collective microbiome, the cornerstone to every system of your body.
A problem arises when the microbiome is weakened, causing a decrease in good bacteria and an overgrowth of opportunistic bacteria, parasites or yeast. This dysbiosis can be due to stress, chronic illness, medications, poor diet or a combination of any of these.
Who Is Susceptible To Candida Overgrowth?
Acute infestations of candida, such as recurring yeast infections, are well documented. But chronic, low-grade candida overgrowths are not as easily detected, and have been shown to be related to an increased permeability of the gut lining, or leaky gut syndrome.
How Do You Test For Candida Overgrowths?
Low-grade overgrowths can be quite subtle, but can be detected with the proper diagnostic testing.
I run either a two- or three-day stool collection that analyzes the DNA of the specific pathogens that are in your microbiome and often go undetected on standard labs.
Interestingly, instead of finding Candida albicans, I often find abnormal amounts of other types of Candida or different fungus species on lab results.
1. Get a comprehensive stool test.
A multiple-day collection gives us a better look at your microbiome and uncovers any fungal, bacterial or parasitic overgrowth, as well as your beneficial bacteria levels. Retesting a few months into care allows for any modification that may be needed.
2. Test for leaky gut syndrome.
A blood test to assess if anything from the gut is passing into the blood stream can done to find out if you have leaky gut syndrome.
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO, is common with candida overgrowth, further complicating treatment. It can be helpful to look for SIBO.
Candida eats what you eat, and it especially loves sugar! Avoiding junk foods, excess fruits, juices and starchy foods like potatoes is essential.
5. Hold off on fermented foods.
Fermented foods like sauerkraut and kimchee are wonderful sources of probiotics, but can also feed candida. Certain probiotic supplements that contain prebiotics can also feed overgrowths.
I generally suggest waiting until after the die-off phase of candida removal before adding these back in to recolonize the microbiome. This can take anywhere from weeks to months, depending on the severity of the case.
Caprylic acid, oregano oil, garlic and black tea were all shown in the literature to be effective treatments for candida overgrowths.
The beneficial yeast S. boulardii was also show to be effective against candida overgrowth, decreasing both the inflammation from the overgrowth and the spreading of the candida in the gut.
7. Personalized functional medicine care.
Even with natural options, what works for one person may not for you! Today, lab testing can better inform us which natural medicine would be better for your individual overgrowth or gut infection. This ensures targeted effective care.

The city has exercised its eminent domain rights for one South State Street property and may soon file eminent domain action against another.
The city was working with owners of nine parcels along South State Street, Huber Village Boulevard and Heatherdown Drive to obtain easements for South State Street improvements that are currently under way.
Six other property owners have reached a deal with Westerville for the improvements, or have granted the city right of entry while they negotiate on a price.
Unable to reach an agreement with South State Street Investors, the city filed a check for $55,475 with the Franklin County Clerk of Courts on Sept. 21 for 0.1563 acre in front of Guernsey Bank, 782 S. State St, said city planning and development director Karl Craven.
The move gives the city the rights to the easement, Craven said, and South State Street Investors has 28 days to either claim the check or appeal the amount that is being offered.
"That money is then available for the property owner. They can go down and pick up the money," Craven said. "If they want to pursue a court case because they don't think the amount of money is fair, the court will go ahead and set a court date.
"We have (the land). What it will take later if the guy doesn't think the price is right, the court will determine that," he said. "We can continue negotiations."
The city also is still in talks with property owner James Taylor over 0.205 acre in front of US Bank, 833 S. State St., and it is likely the city will file to exercise eminent domain in the case as well, Craven said.
"If something doesn't come within the next week, we'll probably have to file with the court for that property, also," he said.
The price on another piece of property needed for the project, 0.168 acre in front of Knight's Inn, 32 Heatherdown Drive, also has not been settled on, Craven said, but the city has given property owner V.J. Capital Management more time to seek its own appraisal on the land because that easement will not be needed during the current phase of the project.
The city will have to reach an agreement with the property owner by the beginning of next year, Craven said, or look to use eminent domain.
The legal proceedings do not interfere with the city's ability to move forward with the project, Craven said, which includes burying utility lines and other streetscape improvements.
Craven has said previously that in the past 15 years, in dealing with 150 property owners on cases that could have led to eminent domain action, the city has only had to file action against one other property owner.

the price on another piece of property needed for the project, 0.168 acre in front of knight's inn, 32 heatherdown drive, also has not been settled on, craven said, but the city has given property owner v.j. capital management more time to seek its own appraisal on the land because that easement will not be needed during the current phase of the project.
the city will have to reach an agreement with the property owner by the beginning of next year, craven said, or look to use eminent domain.
the legal proceedings do not interfere with the city's ability to move forward with the project, craven said, which includes burying utility lines and other streetscape improvements.
craven has said previously that in the past 15 years, in dealing with 150 property owners on cases that could have led to eminent domain action, the city has only had to file action against one other property owner.

Chimu travellers come from all corners of the globe and all age ranges, the common thread being a love for Latin America and/or Antarctica. They tend to want more than a bird’s eye view of the destinations they visit, preferring an up close and personal experience to get the most out of the journey in a way that suits them best. When it comes to our clients, Chimu’s philosophy is simple; use specialised knowledge to work with our clients, accommodating to their individual needs.
We have now returned from our truly amazing trip to Chile and would like to send a very big thank you to all at Chimu Adventures who made the wonderful experience possible. Accommodation, flights, meals, tours (and even the weather) were perfect in every way. We spent lots of time walking and enjoying the beauty of Patagonia's scenery and wildlife and then on to watching the magic of seeing flamingo's feed while the sun set over the Atacama Desert. All the Chileans we met were warm and welcoming. Most definitely the trip of a lifetime and we will be encouraging all our friends to visit Chile at least once!
My experience on board Ushuaia: I would have to say the trip was truly a "once in a life time" and certainly would go again given the opportunity. I was fortunate to be upgraded which was a very pleasant surprise. The captain and crew were excellent and being allowed on the bridge was a bonus. The cabin crew were wonderful and looked after us well and kept the boat clean. They were always friendly and smiling. The scientists were always very keen to share their knowledge and were a fun group. The boat was a very relaxed place to be.
I am now back in Australia after a fantastic trip in South America and the Antarctic. Thanks to Chimu, my whole trip was faultless, even allowing for 2 minor transfer delays. Overall, transport was good, airlines were generally efficient and the hotels that Chimu recommended at the high end, were very good.
Antarctica was an amazing experience. The scenery, the wildlife and the Shackleton history made this trip so enjoyable. I found that part of my overall trip in South America, well exceeded my expectations.
This was the first trip that I have done over the years that relied solely on one travel coordinator to arrange everything. I did that because I was a single traveler in countries where I had not been before and wanted the convenience of airport transfers, good hotels and well thought out day tours etc. Again, I must compliment Chimu and your representatives in the countries I visited in making my holiday so enjoyable.If I had a minor problem in any of the countries I visited, I just needed to make a call to your local agent and I was well looked after.
I would like to thank Chimu Adventures for the organisation of The Shackelton Discovery Tour 2014. It was a wonderful trip, the adventure of a lifetime and a dream fulfilled and your presence on the ship made it that much more special.
The effort put in to ensure the best possible expedition for your passengers was indeed first rate. Attention to detail, service and staff friendliness, from the Hotel staff to Expedition staff, cannot be faulted.
Putting such a trip together is no mean feet with the addition or arranging for Guest Speakers and Artists to keep us entertained as well as raising funds for The Mawson's Hut Foundation. Your support of this is to be commended - too many times are companies only interested in profits alone. And whilst issues always arise I cannot find fault in my experiences with your company and with my contact with your staff.
I hope to use Chimu services again one day when I would like to venture through South America more thoroughly.
It was a nerve racking moment when I stood at the postbox one cold October day last year with an envelope containing a huge cheque for the final payment as we didn't know what to expect. Well, after approximately 17 planes, 11 buses (3 overnight), 41 tours, 48 transfers and 101 hotels and a total of 110 days in South America, we have to say we are just so amazed. There was always someone to pick up or check us in at the airport and take us on our tours, and always with a smile! We have recommended Chimu Adventures to fellow travellers and would not hesitate to travel with you again.
I travelled to Peru with Chimu earlier this year and have to say the friendliness, professionalism and attention to detail was second to none. My favourite travel destination in Latin America would be Santiago, however the highlight of my last trip was crossing the Warmiwañusca trail ("Dead Woman's Pass") on the Inca Trail. My thanks goes out to the wonderful Chimu staff. I would strongly recommend Chimu Adventures to anyone heading to Latin America, and would definitely travel with this great company again!
My husband I have recently returned from a trip to Peru organised by Chimu Adventures. We had an awesome time and credit your experience and expertise to the smooth running and comfort of the trip. I will definitely choose your company for any upcoming travel to South America and will also recommend your services to anybody and everybody I know.. a BIG thank you!
We want to thank you and your company for the amazing holiday package you planned for us.Your team over in South America were outstanding. We were made to feel very welcome and safe everywhere we went.It was so reassuring to see a smiling face holding our name on a board at every stop. We would look at each other and say, “Thank you Mr. Chimu!” (It became our little joke). Our personal guides were so passionate and interesting, which made each section of our holiday even more amazing. We have experienced so many and varied places and cultures in just four weeks, which would not have been possible without such thorough planning. Again, thank you for a cherished memorable trip, we have already recommended Chimu Adventures to others and will continue to sing your praises!
We just have returned from a trip to Argentina and Brazil, organized by Chimu Adventures. We had a delightful holiday. Exciting, breathtaking, homely, comfortable, well-structured and enticing.
Delightful: everything went without worry or hitch. Transfers were seamless, flights co-ordinated, accommodation very comfortable, locations central.
Breathtaking: seeing and becoming enveloped in the Iguassu Falls, travelling down jungle rivers surround by trees full of birds, monkeys, flowers, on the riverbanks, caiman and in the water piranhas.
Homely: the staff at the various hotels were wonderful. They made us feel relaxed and able to concentrate on our adventures.
Comfortable: all transfers were on time. The drivers and guides were very welcoming and willing to fit into our schedule.
Well-structured: The variations in locations were well thought through, so that we did not do similar things at each stop. The locations of our hotels were where we wished to spend our time so that local travel was at a minimum.
Enticing: we feel as if we have had just the merest touch of the wonders of South America and adventures we wish to experience.
It is with great excitement that I share how wonderful Chimu Adventures are to travel with. Not only from a personal experience but a professional one. Our TV travel Series Places We Go recently undertook an exciting venture with them where we invited our viewers to come to Antarctica with us, and without Chimu Adventures this would never have been possible. As you can imagine putting our trusted TV travel Brand Places We Go with a travel operator, they must be first class. On a personal level, my adventure to Antarctica with Chimu Adventures was truly breathtaking. We had a great ship, fantastic crew and our tour guides were really knowledgeable, all fused together it made for a once in a life time trip, just as Antarctica should be!
