My Life is Amazing
... then realized it was not a bear; it was a wolverine! It quickly slinked it’s was gracefully over the guardrail and disappeared down the side of the cliff. I so badly wanted to get out and look over the rail to catch another glimpse of it; it had disappeared before I could even turn on my camera.

Our meal started with a lovely little amuse bouche, a spicy tomato gazpacho that came in a teeny tiny bowl and a teeny tiny spoon. I ...
Goldrush
... nur hier durchkommen konnte. Und sie kamen, erst Jahre spaeter zwar, aber in Massen. Man schaetzt die Zahl der Hoffnungsvollen auf ca. 100000. Via den damals noerdlichsten Hafen ueber den White Pass oder den legendaeren Chilkoot Trail fuehrte der Fussweg zum Lake Bennet. Von dort ging es mit Booten weiter nach dem 450 Meilen entfernten Dawson City. Einer von ihnen war Jack London, dessen Buecher die Geschichten des Goldrauschs in die Welt hinaustrugen. Damals musste jeder der ...
