burntbird - Greyhound Guru

Greyhound Guru 58 year old married guy. 20+ year resident of Maine USA. Frequent traveler to NYC. I spend as much time as possible in the Philippines with my wife. I'll be finishing the year with quite a bit of travel; Las Vegas in mid-October. I'll be traveling to Europe in November, returning to Maine on Thanksgiving Day. December? I'll be flying Cathay Pacific to Manila then Philippine Airlines to Cagayan de Oro on the north coast of Mindanou to celebrate Christmas and New Year's with my wife Ronnahlyne.

Returning to Maine, but just for a week. Then I'll be living in Austin, Texas until June. July and August?...probably Maine or New Hampshire.

It's fabulous!
Portland International Jetport... What a stupid name. Reminds me of The Flintstones or something. Anyway the flights on Jet Blue were good. People were complaining about the long flight (5.5 hours), but I say: Try JFK to Manila...(about 18!) I'll activate my Vegas Power Pass today and dig in to the local attractions. The food is great but very expensive. It makes NYC seem like ''bargainland.''.....thanks for reading! [View Full Entry]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6xFFksxnOk This is some nice footage. I like the way they have Times Square just for foot-traffic. With the stage ready to go. I'll go to see Memphis on November 3rd. then stay at the Chelsea Spot Hostel on 30th St. The next morning I'll walk to Penn Station and go to JFK. Flying to Madrid and beyond for 3 weeks. Stay tuned. Memphis is new to Broadway, but it sounds cool... I never had seen a Broadway show until 2009. It's weird. I was born in NY but never lived there. I won a front row seat vis a vis [View Full Entry]

This is some of my own music. Coupled with an old educational silent film. I hope you like it. [View Full Entry]

I am not in Manhattan. If I was I'd probably be watching a Broadway show. I have a SYSTEM for seeing shows on Broadway. I have a Amtrak credit card. I trade the Amtrak points 1 for 1 for Audience Rewards points. I see what they are offering for trades usually some cash too but not much. I get a ticket for a Tuesday evening performance or a Wednesday matinee. (Most shows have two performances on Weds.) Then I get a Greyound bus ticket @ least 3 weeks in advance. Leaves Portland ME @ 10A and arrives right in the Port [View Full Entry]

Tarsier Asia » Philippines » Bohol » Tagbilaran
Tarsier : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippine_Tarsier We went to the Chocolate Hills and saw the Tarsiers at the Tarsier Center back in April. Our guide was cool, did a good job taking us all over Bohol on his trike. The best part? Going shopping at the old lady's Native Craft store. I don't remember the name but it's downtown Tagbilaranm near McD's. She had a big story about each item for sale. She sold me a ''stuffed tarsier", only one problem. It was just sawdust glue and coconut fibers. I bought it anyway. My wife found a nice handbag she loved. The old woman [View Full Entry]

I have joined Road Rewards- Greyhound's ''loyalty program''. It seems pretty generous. I will have a round trip free ticket anywhere there roll, by Jan 2010. I don't know where I'll go. I wish I could forecast the future. I have no idea if Austin will work out good. I pray for that. The Greyhound Guru doesn't know all, he always knows about the route though. I know it would be good for my wife. The climate would be at least a little like the Philippines. Maine would be culture-shock X3. Hi honey. My honey loves seafood...Jollybee, too. Misya, LYNLYN!

Honeymoon forever...
Honeymoon forever...
El Dorado - Duimaguete, Philippines
I'm sitting here wondering what the future will be like...not my personal future. I have that down...(Coolness!) haha I have a plan anyway...right to the date. Weird. I have the rest of my life planned and there is only one reason...my wife in the Philippines. She is unique. There is no reason for me to have her. Just pure love. She is so much fun. Even if we are just walking down the street we are laughing and enjoying each other. She is a ray of sunshine in a sorry, sorry, world. Like I said, I have the rest of my [View Full Entry]
