Lost
Nicole may have hoped that a Lost day entailed going around the island looking for Lost filming locations, but it was really just time killing. There was too much time on our hands, yet not enough to really do anything of substance. I dragged Nicole out to see my old…
Death By Sun
It was an active day that began at the Voyager 47 lounge of course. Following some digestion, I headed out for another run around Diamond Head. With one already under the belt from a couple of days ago, I paced myself better and felt a bit quicker. Immediately after showering…
Leaving Waikiki for a Minute
After the obligatory trip to the Voyager 47 Club, we prepared ourselves for a venture outside the big city. I had rented us a pair of compact cars to escape the wiki wiki lifestyle of the Waikiki. G-Diggity (half of Bran to clarify) and I walked over to the sprawling…
Voyager 47, 7.7, and 7-11,
We hit up the breakfast at the Voyager 47 lounge where I had a local coffee. Who am I? I don’t know! I also acquired some POG juice for good measure. The Voyager 47 lounge offered the usual breakfast staples like eggs and sausage and pastries, but there was a…
Why, Kiki?
After just a couple weeks hiatus from the nonrev life, we (Bricole, everyone’s favorite celebrity couple) are back at it. This time it is a gathering of celebrity couples. You all remember Salt, everyone’s favorite senior travel couple, and of course Bran, the lesser-known Texans with their keikis in tow.…
Exotic Travel for the Basic

There were 11 different flights, 7 different hotels/lodges, a small SUV rental, a defective buggy rental, an estimated 73 boat rides, and only two…I say again…TWO margherita pizzas consumed. As…
Two More Flights & Done
I suppose given that the Manaus airport has some rather silly departure times, the Ibis didn’t bat an eye at our 130am checkout. The city again smelled like it was on fire. It was a quick Uber ride to the terminal where we were just as quickly given seats together…
Back to Manaus
If you can believe this, it’s actually pretty hard to sleep when it’s 95 degrees and you’re sweating. The opportunity to maybe get another hour of sleep was more appealing even though breakfast was still 630am. By 7am, the sun was beating down oppressively once again. We had a knock…
Mutiny in the Amazon
Despite the expected early wake-up and start to our day, we again found ourselves struggling with heat and intense sun just baking down on us. What made this day a little bit worse, however, was the fact that we were in a wooden canoe. Despite yesterday’s heat, we had a…
