This Weekend in the World - Cajuns, Flowers, Medieval Football and Beer

Some places, almost inexplicably, seem to be cradles of music. Seattle in the US produced Jimi Hendrix and Nirvana, Manchester in the UK seems to churn out a never ending supply of ‘indie’ bands from The Smiths via The Stone Roses through to Oasis. Another place that deserves to be recognised as a musical hotbed is Montreal in the Canadian Province of Quebec, and in just seven hours you can be there.

A visit to Berlin is always worth the travel. Here is a travel tour through the city and the surrounding area, in form of a collage of fotos made during my April, 2007 visit. Born in (West) Berlin, with my early childhood, as well as 2 adult years spent in Berlin, I have truly experienced that unique feeling known only to a Berliner. Life after the Wall is even more fascinating, as Berlin keeps developing into an ever greater city of wonder and magic. I can highly recommend Berlin as a vacation destinaion. - Enjoy the show, enveloped in the Benny Goodman Big Band Classic -Sing, Sing Sing-, and please take a moment to rate and comment.

Episode 5 of "A Golden State of Mind" is probably the most magical of all. This week, Emily Hornsby, takes you to the home of the Disneyland Resort and attempts to show the best of this ever growing city. Rides, sports, and food.. what's not to like? This is clip 1 of 3.
