Funeral art you say? Yes, Durham has some noteable and exceptional examples of funeral art, if that is something that meets your desire. Two cemeteries, Beechwood and Geer, feature graves of important early African-American business and cultural leaders, while the Maplewood Cemetery contains Italian marble figures and Victorian “funereal” art. Incidentally, Maplewood features the graves of confederate war veterans and tobacco magnates.

Are You Ready for a Private Jet?

August 8th, 2008 by admin

If you hate long lines in the airport and endless delays both in the terminal
and on the runway, you’re in good company. While some only complain and gnash
their collective teeth about the ongoing inconveniences of commercial air
travel, others find a more constructive solution.

If you have the resources, and you may be surprised that you do, business jet
charter is an excellent alternative to commercial travel. Gone are the crying
babies and hour long security lines. No more waiting for bags and missed
flights. Private jet rental lets you travel with comfort and ease, often for
less than you may think.

Arundel the Spookiest Place in the World

August 8th, 2008 by admin

Well I have been to many spooky places in my lifetime, from dark sewers to underground smugglers caves. When I visited Arundel in Sussex, in the UK I could tell there was something different. It was very dark when I arrived so I was feeling quite sleepy and just wanted to get my head down.

Travel Adventure in Peru - Those Are Labor Pains?

August 8th, 2008 by admin

I have been busy with the tourist business lately (mostly promotion work), including getting my car registration taken care of among other things, and haven’t been able to go with the brothers here on any missions trips. Alberto and I have wanted to go back to Cushpa, a small village up canyon above Cotahuasi, which is at 14,500 feet. Because most of the people live up to a couple of hours from the village, the only time they are all together is for the monthly village meeting. We had agreed to go to Cushpa on the 15th of this month, the day of their meeting, to minister there. However I got some last minute business last week, a very welcome four-day trip with a family of tourists from France, driving them to Arequipa by way of Colca Canyon. On the way we found out that there was going to be a transportation strike in Arequipa, so we had to cut out an extra fifth day that we had planned to go climb a 18,619-foot active volcano, in order to get them back to Arequipa before the strike began. Then the planned two-day strike turned into an indefinite one and I wasn’t sure I would be able to leave Arequipa to get back to Cotahuasi in time for the mission trip.

Obtaining a Rush Visa

August 8th, 2008 by admin

Sometimes travelers find themselves in need of obtaining a rush visa. Emergent circumstances like a family crisis or a last-minute business trip may make it necessary to get a travel visa overnight. A visa is necessary for travel from the US to almost every country in the world. A passport alone will not necessarily guarantee your admittance into a particular country.

Visa applications can be found at most every place that processes passport applications. They can also be downloaded from the Internet. Just like applying for a passport, you must submit specific documentation and identification, including:

*Your current passport.
