Off to Bali
Date: August 30th, 2004 |
My honeymoon officially begins tonight, as I depart Portland and head off to meet Nick in Bali. My wife Carrie (that feels weird to say) and I have never been to SE Asia and are very excited to travel somewhere new, especially a place that is known to have good food. Nick said we [...]
[read more]Leap of Faith
Date: August 4th, 2004 |
Here is a good picture from my bachelor party. It’s me taking a leap of faith, off Sports Illustrated Rock, a 75 foot jump into the Rogue River.
For those of you curious about why it’s called “Sports Illustrated Rock,” apparently SI did a story on cliff jumping in Oregon. I find it hard to believe [...]

Date: July 22nd, 2004 |
Although my wedding is still about one month away, my bachelor party begins tonight! Instead of doing the typical bachelor party, I am going to head off with a group of my good friends and raft a 40 mile section of the Rogue River, over the course of the next 3 days.
For those of [...]
Backpacker Safari
Date: July 20th, 2004 |
Two BootsnAll members recently returned from Tanzania on a safari that BootsnAll helped organize. I recently did an interview to find out more about their experiences, such as watching a cheetah stake out a warthog.
Check out my Safari Interview.
Kilimanjaro & Safari
Date: July 15th, 2004 |
I just finalized a trip with two girls off to Mt. Kilimanjaro to, get this, snowboard on the glacier at 20,000 ft. It should be interesting, especially since it’s pure ice. I guess they are trying to snowboard on every continent in the world, regardless of the conditions. You tend to see a lot of [...]

Date: July 6th, 2004 |
Just received this message from our clients who completed their safari in Tanzania.
Hi Donovan,
Clive here! Just got back-everything was great, saw all the animals we wanted to (well, nearly, no rhinos!) and the food was lovely!
Will write more when we’ve showered and stuff, but don’t worry, it was all good.
Thanks again for sorting all [...]

Member Spotlight
It's been awhile since we had a BootsnAll member stop by the office. However, thank to a recent post on the message boards wondering where the Boots Crew were these days, we managed to arrange lunch with Bideshi, aka Mike (blue shirt below).
With a couple of stints working in South …

Awhile back I posted here about getting into the Boston Globe Travel Show for free. Turns out that was for the trade conference during the day on Friday Feb 19th, not the travel show for regular consumers like you and me that runs from the evening of Friday, February 19 to …
