  • Travel Size?

    Travel Size?

    I have no clue what size luggage fits on a plane now. As we know the discount airlines are like vultures looking for ways to charge fees. Basically on Ryanair, anything bigger than a toothbrush case will cost an extra 30 euros. This should be interesting.

    Ozeaneum-A WOW Place!

    I have not visited an aquarium in years. Stralsund has a marvellous sea museum dedicated to sea life over three floors. The curved building opened in July 2008 on the city’s waterfront. The Ozeoneum is opened from 9 to 8. Expect long lines dues to Social Distancing rules.

I was not familiar with Stralsund. A medieval Hansa League Baltic port city in Mecklenberg Vorpommern 280 km from Berlin.  Having no expectations on my first visit, […]

    Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Experience

    I traveled to Abu Dhabi with Etihad Airways for the Formula 1 Auto race.  From the moment I got the plane I knew this was going to be an experience of a lifetime. Getting was half the fun.  Exceptional Service is an integral part of the Etihad precinct.   I was greeted by a friendly smile […]

    Black and Paper covers Formula 1 from Abu Dhabi for 2016.  We are using the Hasselblad X1D camera to capture all the images. A top of the line camera with so many features.  It is an amazing device so I cannot wait to use it.

    Getting the Chic Back

    Part 1 of the Black and Paper Feature The Glamorous spirit of Italy is being recaptured by Alitalia.   The flagship carriers renaissance begins with  the style and chic looks of new crew uniforms.
