A return to beautiful St. Lucia as a 75th birthday wish fulfilled

An Extraordinary Photo and Cultural Tour of Odisha and Chattigarh We found ourselves in eastern India a month ago and I’m not sure why. Over the years we have traveled to some very remote locations and this sounded interesting. The roads in eastern India are fairly good and what you will encounter on them can […]
