Brussels, Belgium Pub Crawl
When our guide Sasha explained that our tour would be of the famous “cafes,” I admit I was disappointed. Hey, I thought isn’t Brussels about Belgian beer, chocolate and waffles? Then Sasha lead our small group to the first “cafe,” and I realized that cafe = pubs. My once-hestitating steps suddenly turned eager for my […]

Brussels: Jet Airways, Culture, Architecture, Chocolate, Beer, People-Watching
Need I say more? Actually I think I will. Aside from the fact that I’m still waiting for “lost” luggage. What an amazing trip! The U.S. Airways flight from Denver through Charlotte into JFK was uneventful, except that my one checked suitcase didn’t make it. Short story: I flew to Brussels directly from JFK via […]
Devil’s Thumb Ranch Colorado

Hotel Magnolia Denver
Wrote a blog about my site visit to Hotel Magnolia Denver on Monday. LOVED it — especially enjoyed people-watching at the local hangout,  Harry’s Bar, part of the hotel! The just completed renovation rocks — funky, swanky, 70’s, with a touch of Old World. Take a look at my other blog’s longer review of Hotel Magnolia Denver: […]
Riu Palace Pacifico – Puerto Vallarta
Toured the new Riu property today. Tommorrow I move from the “classic” Riu to the new “palace” design, Riu Palace Pacifico. I am twittering about my trip, so check my twitter out at: www.twitter.com/dianarowe  I’ll blog as I have time, but hey the ocean keeps calling. Diana
