There is a friendly ambiance to this restaurant. Duke’s Beach House is located on the western side of Sheraton Blackrock/Kaanapali area. Duke’s Beach House is along…
Awesome Tour, Professional Staff Our first tour with Trilogy was back in 1998 to Lanai. We still have fond memories of that tour. Our second time out with Trilogy was as memorable with the “Whale Watching.” Jason was our captain and he did an awesome job taking us to where the whales were. A superb narration about the whales and…
A Few Tips while Visiting this Natural History and Science Museum. Stan, the Te-Rex, is quite impressive as you walk into the main foyer.

Located right in Old Town Albuquerque, it is easy to find. There are, indeed, a number of rattlesnakes to view. There is one albino rattlesnake, but the original “Marilyn” has since died.…

The morning cook, Maria, at the Embassy Suites also raved about Garduno’s. “I love that place,” Maria stated. We sat at the large bar near a…
Good Fresh Food and Erudite Ambiance Sharing the same premise as the downtown Albuquerque Library, Big Al’s Dipper is one kind of a place that servers fresh sandwiches, salads and soups.
