It looks like I’ve stumbled on a new place to visit when I’m in San Francisco in October. The new California Academy of Sciences looks pretty awesome. I only wish I could be there for opening day when it will be free to the public. As an added bonus, since it’s located in Golden Gate Park I’ll be able to visit the Japanese Tea Garden, a place I’ve been wanting to go, but haven’t made it to so far.
Now I can’t wait for October.

Most people that live in the USA have a pretty high opinion of the place, and while it is a pretty wonderful country to live in, there are other spots on the planet worth a visit. Instead, Americans (a misnomer by the way, since there are non-USA North Americans as well as the residents of those Americas south of Mexico) tend to bash places they think are inferior to home. Canada in particular gets a bad rap from people in this country and I can’t for the life of me figure out why. In the few times I’ve visited Canada I’ve always found it to be a wonderful country, full of wonderful people.
This morning I ran across this piece from Arthur Frommer and thought it was a nice read.
Oh Canada!

Think you can tell where people are from just their accent? Then give this quiz a try.
