9 places found.

  1. Masai Mara National Park

    The Masai Mara National Reserve is Kenya's premier wildlife park. It was established in 1961 to protect wildlife from hunters.

  2. Puako Petroglyphs

  3. The Houses of Parliament and Big Ben

  4. Large Things on Hwy #3

    Alberta is an eclectic place. Canada's wild west, birth place of the mounties, home to pioneers, outlaws and strange folk - even today.

  5. BYOBW

    Every Easter Sunday thousands of people race Big Wheels down Vermont Street between 19th and 21st streets. This true San Francisco experience started when musician Jon Brumit found a Big Wheel in the city dump while recording sounds and deciding that he needed to race it.

  6. Spring Lake Five

    The Spring Lake Five in the oceanside town of Spring Lake, New Jersey, is one of the largest (if not the largest) five mile races in the Uniited States. It began in 1977 with a 500 runners.

  7. Pigeon Point Lighthouse

    Pigeon Point Lighthouse is one of the many (and easily accessible) lighthouses scattered along the California coastline. The last time I’ve been there, the federal government was trying to sell the lighthouse to a private party because the $1 million annual maintenance cost was burning a hole in their budget.

  8. Big Creek Bridge

    While Bixby Bridge is one of the most photographed bridges in California, it is likely that neighboring Big Creek Bridge takes top honors. Traveling north five miles beyond Lucia on Route 1, you'll see the bridge in the distance and a paved and often busy parking lot where people are out of their cars looking and taking photos.

  9. Nepenthe

    Nepenthe literally means "the one that chases away sorrow" and it first appears in Homer's Odyssey... more loosely translated, it is the drug of forgetfulness.

    However, the restaurant Nepenthe feels like entering a lair of one of Bond's arch-nemesis villains.
