Economy and birth rates
Hi Gerry, I visited Japan (my 2nd visit after 1995) last years and was very much impressed. We in Germany got this year the news, that our economy is now the 3rd largest and Japan's has fallen behind. If this is true, then it is just for s short period, as India is catching up and its population is growing. Concerning birth rates we have the same problem in Europe (especially Germany and Italy) and also China is shrinking nowadays. Maybe we should research in the area of machines giving birth to new children. Personally I don't see immigration as a solution as gradually the existing population would be replaced by the new one. Best regards, Thomas

Thank You
Very astute observations. But I do think we need people to move from over populated areas to areas of need.

Layovers are gold!
I cannot take a 14 hour flight anymore. It’s just too long, so I am learning the art of layovers and living it!

Full Agreement with You
If I do take long flights, I use my miles to upgrade. Or, as you do, split them up with a layover whenever possible.

Mitch’s Seafood and Sushi Bar is considered by myself and all locals that know about it the #1 finest in Hawaii and compatible to Japan. Hope you try it and see! BYOB

Changing times
Gerry, I remember when Tijuana was not dangerous. I was a university student livng in San Diego, I was studying Spanish and Tijuana was a good destination to practice, I had friends who lived there and I would often spend the weekend. Dinner was a formal and strict affair No one spoke until the father did. Only Spanish was allowed. When I would drive back the next day the grandmother would wrap up home made torillas for me. They were delicious!

The train usually costs less. There is no additional charge for picking a seat or adding luggage. Additionally, you are free to roam the area, purchase refreshments, or bring your own! The restrooms are substantially larger and the benches are much more comfy! Web Development Ecommerce

Very good food

Some oversights for sure..?
No Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi/Sri Lankan or French? The first cluster would make the top five of almost any Brit and French cuisine, well.... Hell, surely Spain has more to offer than the rather limited Cajun repertoire?
30th March 2023

Agreed
Cajun is limited to the US, you are right. How did French not make the top 10?? Spain, Portugal, Germany, Laos, Cambodia.

What is your best food country amongst the above-mentioned countries?
30th March 2023

My Vote
I go with either Japanese, Chinese, or Greek.

Ambien, which I take at bed time at my destination...
If I have a two week trip I get 14 pills. I usually take half doses.

Good Idea
And it does not go well with alcohol, as you know.

New Orleans & All that Jazz.
We drove down the Blues Highway in a Cadillac from Memphis to New Orleans and danced the nights away in the Blues Joints along the way. In New Orleans Denise danced with a street jazz band as we headed to Frenchman's Road where we were entranced by the Dipsy Daisies at The Spotted Cat and later danced with a large street jazz band forcing us to leave our dinner to join in. Then one of our favourite Blues artists was playing at 11pm nearby, so meeting him and sitting at his table during the gig made our New Orleans truly memorable. Bourbon Street was surprisingly sleazy but Frenchman's Road was a delight. A city of many contrasts we found. If you go for the Jazz, I agree with you Gerry, You will not be disappointed.

Fun, Fun, Fun!!!!
This is a very underrated part of the US, not appreciated by most northerners, or "Yankees" as they call them in the old South.

The Most Beautiful Places in the World
A difficult task to so speculate Gerry, and a spectacular list you have compiled no doubt. Having visited most of the locations you list, I cannot place any higher than Torres del Paine in Southern Chile as the Most Beautiful Place in the World. I have even done a blog so named to celebrate its majesty. I must make a point of visiting the few on your list I have not yet embraced.

I agree on Torres
Yes, I loved Torres, one day was not enough but it was too darn cold!!!!
