I found this Umbrella Cockatoo enjoying a can of Coca-Cola at the Lory Park in Johannesburg, South Africa. I love how if you look closely, you can see the coke pouring into it’s mouth.

This Man Creeps Me Out Every Time I Fly

IMG 0843 This Man Creeps Me Out Every Time I Fly

The photo above is of Dr. Jeffry Life. He’s the poster-boy…er man… er old man for Cenegenics.

And he creeps me out every time I fly.

If you’re a frequent flier, you may recognize Grandpa Buff Jeff (as I like to refer to him) from virtually every airline magazine. He advertises Cenegenics Medical Institute – a business that promotes healthy aging. What is most shocking about this ad, is how Grandpa Buff Jeff looked like before he bought into Cenegenics.

Reading the Local Paper When Traveling Abroad is Sofa King Fun!

YorkshirePost Reading the Local Paper When Traveling Abroad is Sofa King Fun!

Hey Adventurers,

I’m currently in England on a quick business trip and read something funny in the newspaper today that I thought I would share with you. But first, I want to share that I enjoy reading the local newspaper when I travel. Especially when I am overseas.

I appreciate learning about what’s important and newsworthy in a new country and love discovering their perspectives on current events. It’s also a great way to start conversations with a local, asking for their opinion on they story du jour.

Dining at The Bubble Room: Travel Kitsch at it’s Finest!

P9271819 Dining at The Bubble Room: Travel Kitsch at its Finest!

Without a doubt, The Bubble Room ranks as the #1 kitschy restaurant I’ve ever discovered anywhere IN THE WORLD! That’s a pretty strong statement, I know, but after reading today’s post I think you’ll agree with me. You’ll know you’ve arrived when you spot the building that looks like every color of paint was just poured over it. Let the fun begin!

P9271817 Dining at The Bubble Room: Travel Kitsch at its Finest!

The Bubble Room does not take reservations, so arrive in advance. Even in the low season when I visited, waits were upwards to an hour or so. Arrive for an early dinner (5:00ish and you’ll walk right in). Plus, it’s easy to find parking in the lot.

Merry Christmas from a Condom’d Santa

SantaCondom Merry Christmas from a Condomd Santa

I discovered this Santa, made entirely out of condoms at the Birds & Bees Resort in Pattaya, Thailand. I was going to publish this on Christmas Day, but the fact that he’s made entirely out of multi-colored, unwrapped (but unused) condoms made me cringe. It just seemed wrong – even I have a line!

So now that Christmas has come and gone, enjoy this strangely-made Santa.

I spotted this one at the Houston Airport during a layover, and I must say, after having Airport Tacos, the men’s room can certainly turn into a severe weather area! And the toilet bowl swirls just like indicated in the photo!

Ewww… too far on this one? Share your opinion by commenting.

New Urban Male has a giant sperm as it’s logo in the store window display.

Sometimes I’m left speechless.

Is Hungry Jacks in Australia the Same as Burger King?

IMG 2915 1024x768 Is Hungry Jacks in Australia the Same as Burger King?

I don’t eat a whole lot of fast food in the United States, but while traveling… I like to sample a few and compare. Case-in-point, the McDonald’s Mega Mac. While traveling through Australia, I came across Hungry Jack’s, an obvious “knock-off” of Burger King.

Or so I thought.

You see, while traveling in South Africa I came across the Pick ‘n Pay clothing store, which looked exactly like Old Navy.  So I’ve somewhat grown accustom to other countries trying to circumvent American Trademark Laws.

Drinking a Real, Mummified, Human Toe: The Sour Toe Cocktail Club

P9021550 Drinking a Real, Mummified, Human Toe: The Sour Toe Cocktail Club

Curious about the toe? This YouTube Video tells the whole story…

The Sour Toe Cocktail Club was originated by Captain Dick (you can read the history here). It’s an eerily, curious drink that only the bravest try.

You Too Can Become a SourToe Cocktail Club Member

If you’re up for the challenge, visit the Downtown Hotel in Dawson City, Canada. It’s in the Yukon Territory. Stop in the bar and ask what time the “Toe Captain” will be there to drop the toe into your shot. On my most recent trip, it was posted that he was there every day from 7-9 P.M.
