"18 Forillon" Tombuttle's photos around Forillon, Canada (cap bon ami campground blog)

Preview of Tombuttle's blog at TravelPod. Read the full blog here: www.travelpod.com This blog preview was made by TravelPod using the TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow creator. Entry from: Forillon, Canada Entry Title: "18 Forillon" Entry: "Took the slowest path, I think, to my new home -- I decided to continue following the Acadian Coastal route with a sidetrip to the Acadian islands (an extra 350+km versus going cross-country). Ile Miscou is as close as you can get to being in France -- even I can understand most of their french (like being in St Pierre). I continued to see the devastation caused by the fishing moratorium -- lots of boats in backyards and in spare spaces near harbours. The van is now sporting an Acadian decal - bleu (avec jaune etoile), blanc et rouge. The long-way round was very pleasant and relaxing with a much slower speed limit - the odd rain shower didn't perturb me a bit. Crossed into Quebec at Pointe-a-la-Croix (across the river from Campbellton NB) and meandered along the coast road toward Gaspe - this was a beautiful drive with the fall colours and hills always on my left. Although I gained an hour, it didn't give me any extra daylight -- I arrived at 20:00 in the dark at Forillon National Park. Being late, I ended up sleeping next to their Information Centre because I went to the campground which happened to be closed for the season and didn't have a map of the park to find the open one. It was a beautiful clear night with zillions of stars and ...

"Bled: Part I" Dowd0031's photos about Bled, Slovenia (bled alcazar drawbridge)

Preview of Dowd0031's blog at TravelPod. Read the full blog here: www.travelpod.com This blog preview was made by TravelPod using the TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow creator. Entry from: Bled, Slovenia Entry Title: "Bled: Part I" Entry: "Hints of blue sky scattered among the gray were enough to encourage me to make a trip to Bled today, though I decided I should spend the night, just in case the weather decided not to cooperate. Of course, just outside of Ljubljana, the rain started, and it continued to get harder until I arrived in Bled, where I stepped out of the bus and, taking shelter under the overhang of the tourist office/bus station, proceeded to put on all of my rain gear -- rain pants, rain coat, waterproof hiking boots, huge blue poncho (to cover my bags), visor (to keep my glasses from getting wet) -- and then left in search of my hostel. With no map and just a vague recollection of where my hostel was located, I thought it best to be prepared for a long walk in the rain. Luckily, I managed to find my hostel without too much trouble, though I did garner quite a few laughs from the locals in the process. As I entered through the ground floor bar (always a good sign :)), I was met by the bartender, who had been left keys and instructions from the hostel manager. Checking in, I realized I had the entire hostel to myself...a definite first. Luckily, the rain slowed shortly after I finished eating lunch (a delicious goulash), and I decided to walk the 6K around the ...

"Every cloud has a silver lining?" Geoffnsteph's photos around Grand Canyon North Rim

A TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow of a travel blog to Grand Canyon North Rim, United States by TravelPod blogger Geoffnsteph titled "Every cloud has a silver lining?" Geoffnsteph's travel blog entry: "Sunday 1st August Every cloud has a silver lining No storms in the night thankfully and 74 degrees when we got up. We had to switch rooms this morning due to our changes in itinerary -- the rooms are identical though! A pleasant drive across the Vermillion Cliffs desert -- backdrop for hundreds of Westerns apparently. Then climbed up through the Kaibab Forest until we reached the rim of the Grand Canyon at over 8800 feet. The nearer we got to the rim, the worse the weather became. The temperature dropped again to 56 degrees; wet, drizzly, misty conditions, just perfect for viewing the immensity of the Grand Canyon. We'd stopped at Point Imperial, the highest viewing point on the rim and saw nothing but floating cloud and mist, and then it started to rain, steadily at first and then drenching stuff. Steph read her book, I tried to snooze in the hope that the clouds would lift enough to give us some sort of view. A passing Ranger (still no Yogi) said that this weather was exceptional for this time of year and it had been the same yesterday until about 1 o' clock. We hung on in hope. Around 12:30 it did clear enough to offer rare glimpses of a cloud-strewn canyon vista, clear one minute, misty the next. The views are amazing nonetheless and I suppose there is some comfort that ...
