On this Flashback Friday I’m looking back at Chobe National Park. I have extraordinary memories of our safari in Chobe, Botswana. Chobe National Park is the most diverse park in Botswana, and is bordered by the Chobe River (water = crocs and hippos!). On the far shore is Namibia. We saw so many different kinds of animals, but everyone goes to Chobe for the Elephants. On a continent where they are so ruthlessly hunted, Chobe National Park has been a haven for them.

A stay in a haunted hotel!
by Suzanne Stavert of Adventures of Empty Nesters
Our trip to Austin was filled with several unique, new adventures, not the least of which was a stay in a haunted hotel. What?

The Don CeSar on St. Pete Beach is Haunted by Romance!
Where and what is the Don CeSar? It is a historic hotel on St. Pete Beach in Florida. The Don is also known as the Famous Pink Palace, or “the Wedding Cake”. I can attest to the beauty and elegance of the National Historic Landmark Hotel because I stayed there frequently when my daughter was at Eckerd College in St. Petersburg. It is a beautiful hotel, filled with history and haunted by romance.
