Touring Downtown Detroit During the Grand Prix
There's so much to see and do here! Even if the Grand Prix wasn't in town. From taking the (free!) public rail systems to visiting a 4-story bookstore to eating a coney dog to marveling at the architecture to enjoying a good drink to seeing a Lions/Tigers/Red Wings/Pistons game, Detroit has lots to do.
And don't forget to stop off at the Heidelberg Project.

Feelings of Nostalgia at the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House
Переглядів 103Місяць тому
Waaay back in the 1990s, my parents or friends' parents would take me to the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House, a public entity that holds concerts, tours of the main residence, and other stuff. I don't recall too much but one thing I did remember was the "dollhouse" as I called it, a small playhouse Edsel Ford had built for his daughter. I saw that during my visit, among other things. It was a fun ...
Detroit. Memorial Day 2024. Grand Prix preparations.

I returned back to my home state of Michigan to visit family over the Memorial Day weekend. My "uncle" Kurt, always a great tour guide and host, drove me to Detroit so we could play tourist. The annual Grand Prix was being set up. We took a ride on the elevated, automatic train, called the People Mover. We also looked inside some nice hotels, ate yummy Indian food, and drove around, avoiding th...
Balboa Park's Japanese Friendship Garden (and a bit more) - San Diego
Переглядів 252 місяці тому
San Diego's Balboa Park has a ton of attractions, such as the famous San Diego Zoo. I only had a few hours until my flight, so I decided to skip the zoo and go to a few other places, such as their Japanese tea garden. After that, I wandered around, finally ending up at the Spanish Village Art Center. Balboa Park offers a lot. I'll have to dedicate more time to it the next time I visit San Diego
Overcast San Diego (La Jolla Cove and Black's Beach)

I spent ~48 hours in and overcast (but warm[er than the Bay Area]) San Diego. In that short amount of time, I visited Black's Beach as well as the La Jolla Cove. I only took a few short videos but still wanted to share them. Enjoy!
Following in Anthony Bourdain's Footsteps in San Francisco (sort of)
Переглядів 1542 місяці тому
After messing around in San Francisco's Presidio I met up with my friend Mark. We ate lunch at Sam's Pizza and Hamburgers and had drinks at the Li-Po Cocktail Lounge, both places that Anthony Bourdain visited and talked up. Super delicious.
Some Light Breaking and Entering in Marin
Переглядів 95 місяців тому
Another Marin County day journey. This time I hit up the Point Bonita Lighthouse, Battery Mendell, the Marine Mammal Center, and finally Fort Cronkhite and Rodeo Beach. The battery was completely abandoned and falling apart; most of it was barred and barricaded but one window was open so in I went. A little bit of breaking and entering but I don't think they'll put a warrant out for me.

After spending weeks in India filming my travels, I ended up with a lot of extra footage that I couldn't fit into the narrative of my other videos.

21 Hour Layover in Istanbul 🇹🇷
Переглядів 4926 місяців тому
As luck would have it, I had a long layover in Istanbul on my way back to the US from India. Of course, I had to take advantage so I dropped my bag at my airport hotel and took a taxi into downtown Istanbul. Despite the ever present threat, the rain held off and I was able to enjoy my afternoon in the ancient city that straddles Europe and Asia.
Behind the Scenes of Old Delhi 🇮🇳
Переглядів 3876 місяців тому
Possibly the best part of my trip to India was getting this 90 minute behind the scenes tour of Old Delhi from a rickshaw ("Indian helicopter") driver. He told me about all the different markets (for spices, bread, clothing, etc.) and then took me through the spice market and onto a rooftop for an amazing view of the surrounding area, including the Red Fort in the background.

    What's up with that is that the government charges foreign tourists a fee to visit the historic site during peak hours to maintain & preserve the buildings. Like paying a museum entrance fee or bridge toll.

    • @ohivegotgreeneyes
      @ohivegotgreeneyes 6 місяців тому

      Yeah, kind of like a museum entrance fee. But it’s hard to tell cause it’s really not gated off, just a low horizontal metal bar 1 foot off the ground you can easily step over. Plus, a few days before I walked in with no issues. Then came back a day later and was stopped by security. Kind of randomly enforced.

It was great and I recognized the stairs you started on. It is a fascinating and unique part of Pgh. I think a city wide neighborhood project to improve and provide a history understanding and value of the Steps of Pgh would be a great way to get people out and have more pride in one's hood.
