#1 Hong Kong -- Po Lin Sitting Buddah

It wasn't so much the statue that I liked, though there was a lady selling some noodle soup at the bottom of the stairs and it was delicious. It was the bus ride to get there. A large bus driving up an uncontrolled one-lane canyon road with bicyclists and other busses coming the opposite diretion to contend with. Several times the bus had to stop quickly and then back up the road to let another bus through. More than once the girls seated at the front of the bus screamed in horror thinking we were about to crash or run over a cyclist.

#2 Perth, AU -- Brass Monkey Bar and Hotel

Pretty decent bar, if I'm remembering the right one. They also had a pretty nice casino. If you do visit the casino be aware, they do not burn cards in Texas Hold'em and tipping the dealer is not allowed.

#3 Singapore -- Raffles Hotel Long Bar

This place ended a disaster of a tour I wasted a full day of liberty on. The good news was half the tour group bailed before we got there, so those of us who remained got to drink all the extra Singapore Slings they made for us. I had 4.
#4 Victoria BC --

Couldn't find a pic of the strip club we spent most our time at, so here's a much nicer looking picture.


#5 Dubai UAE -- International Seaman Club

When you mix a bunch of seamen together from all over the world you never know what sort of ******* spawn you'll end up with. The place was intended more for the oil tanker crews, but they let us Navy folks in anyway. They had the cheapest drinks in town and decent pool tables. The bartender made a perfect black and tan.

Meh. I prefer Constantinople.

(Why they changed it, I can't say. They just liked it better that waaaaaay)

Haha :), I say, don't get into the Europen and middle east history. You just can't pull out yourself from it, there are litterally millions of different sources on every damn issue.

And, I'm pretty sure you're refering this. :)

And I like this version better, a more sexy version than all the other covers.

I forgot I went to Victoria when I was younger! We were at the San Juan Islands in Washington and we took a ferry in for a day and went to Butchart Gardens:

In 2002 my entire family went to Oahu:

The USS Arizona Memorial is one of the best things I've ever seen. I would highly recommend that to ANYONE.

We also went to the Polynesian Cultural Center:

It was fun and something I would probably do again.

A lifetime isn't enough to discover all the little beautiful things in İstanbul anyway, it's just like Rome or Paris.
