  • High Noon at the Harold Pinter Theatre, London’s West End

    High Noon at the Harold Pinter Theatre, London’s West End

    A night out in London’s West End to see High Noon, the stage adaptation of the classic Western, at the Harold Pinter Theatre on Panton Street, just off Leicester Square.

    The Harold Pinter Theatre opened in 1881 as the Royal Comedy Theatre and took its current name in 2011 in honour of the playwright. The photos show the theatre lit up at night with the show’s signage out front.

    If you’re planning a visit, the theatre is a short walk from Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square tube stations, which makes it easy to pair with dinner in Soho or Covent Garden.

    The Museum of Flight Seattle: Concorde, Air Force One and More

    A visit to the Museum of Flight in Seattle, one of the largest air and space museums in the world.

    The museum sits at Boeing Field, south of downtown Seattle, and its collection ranges from early aircraft and vintage racing planes to a Concorde, Air Force One and space exhibits. The photos show some of the aircraft on display in the main gallery.

    Plan on at least half a day to see everything, including the outdoor Aviation Pavilion across the road.

  • MGM Grand Las Vegas: The View Over the South Strip

    MGM Grand Las Vegas: The View Over the South Strip

    The view from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in May 2022.

    The MGM Grand is one of the largest hotels in the world and sits at the southern end of the Strip, at the corner of Tropicana Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard. The photos show the view south toward Excalibur and the mountains beyond.

    From the MGM Grand it’s a short walk to New York-New York and Park MGM, or a quick ride on the Las Vegas Monorail to the middle of the Strip.

  • Tokyo Drift…

    So I saw The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift in a movie theatre shortly after it came out in 2006. I was not a big fan of the series at the time, I know I had seen the first one but not the second. Everyone had been talking about how good a movie it was and I wanted to check it out.

    Honestly I came out thinking the movie was fairly entertaining but I was really confused about some of the things that happened to Sean after he first arrived in Japan. It seemed really weird how he became friends with Bow Wow at the race. I didn’t think much of it afterwards as I wasn’t expecting an Oscar calibre screenplay or deep character development.

    It wasn’t until years and years later I finally watched the movie again after really enjoying some of the later films in the franchise. It was only then I realized the theatre where I originally watched the movie had the REELS OUT OF ORDER!

    The version I watched had Sean race in the parking garage prior to going to school for the first time. This was in a mostly full theatre. As far as I could tell this shuffle of reels did not raise any alarms among the rest of the audience. I sometimes wonder when (and if) the other audience members from that day realized what happened?

  • Niagara Falls

    Niagara Falls

    Niagara Falls in November 2019.

    Niagara Falls straddles the border between Ontario, Canada, and New York State and is made up of three falls: Horseshoe Falls, American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. Together they move an enormous volume of water every second, and the mist and roar are unforgettable up close.

    The falls are lit up in colour every night, which makes an evening visit worth planning for.

  • Ka by Cirque du Soleil

    Ka by Cirque du Soleil

    KÀ by Cirque du Soleil at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, in October 2019.

    KÀ is famous for its giant moving stage platforms, which rise, spin and tilt nearly vertical while performers fly, climb and fight across them. The photo shows the dramatic theatre set before the show.

    It’s one of the most impressive productions on the Strip from a technical point of view.
