African Lion Safari and Niagara Falls
I recently took a three-day trip to Ontario, Canada, to visit The African Lion Safari and then Niagra Falls. Furthermore, I must admit that it was way too long a distance to do in three days, and I highly doubt that I would take this kind of trip again.

Walk with the Penguins
Part of the tour’s fun was our visit to the Estacion Pinguinos de Magallanes. The Magellanic penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) is a South American penguin bred in coastal Patagonia, Argentina, Chile, and the Falkland Islands, with some migrating to Brazil and Uruguay. They appear as far north as Espirito Santo and are the most numerous Spheniscus penguins.

Antarctica in its Majesty
On Day 5 of my NCL cruise on the Norwegian Star to Antarctica, we began to find ourselves closer to one of our planet’s coldest and least populated continents. The Antarctic Sheet is the largest mass of ice in the world and is up to four miles thick. The continent contains about 90 percent of the planet’s freshwater ice and nearly 70 percent of the total fresh water on Earth. No humans permanently inhabit Antarctica. The folks there are mostly scientists focused on research.
