[Traveler's Journal] - Flashback - 02/2005 - Philippines - Philippines - Ifugao Tribal People in the Philippines

In 2005, my niece and I visited the Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines which is a Unesco World Heritage site and is sometimes referred to as the 'eight wonder of the world'.  These are the tribal people that lives in the area.

The term "Ifugao" is derived from the term "ipugo' which means "earth people", "mortals", or "humans". It also means "from the hill" as pugo means hill.

[Traveler's Journal] - Flashback - 09/2001 - Hongkong - Hongkong from Victoria Peak

This is a view of Hongkong from the Victoria Peak. When the weather is clear, you get a very clear view of Hongkong. At night, when the lights are everywhere, this view looks like a postcard. The first picture was taken earlier where it was still a bit foggy.

[Traveler's Journal] - Flashback - 09/1996 - Canada - Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada

One of my picture frames fell tonight and it turned out that the picture on the frame was of the Niagara Falls in Ontario Canada which I visited with my brother in 1996. The Horseshoe Falls is the largest falls of three which forms Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada-US Border. 

I hope to go back one day and experience the Journey Behind the Falls where you can see the falls from below and behind the tunnels and observation decks. My brother went back last year and did the journey behind the falls and if am not mistaken did the boat ride.
