KID POST: Adam B(age 10): The Eye of the Nile

Eye of the Nile

I was visiting the ROM in Toronto and I was walking through the mineral room. And I saw this giant diamond. The 886 carat diamond called Eye of the Nile. It is the largest diamond in the world. It was found in 1937 in an Alaskan diamond mine and took 2 1/2 years to cut the 186 side diamond. Wow what a diamond to find!

Welcome to Zoom-Travels

Hi, and welcome to Zoom-Travels. Please fasten your seatbelt and make sure your seat back and folding tray are in the upright position.

This one short phrase is enough to evoke such a sense of excitement and anticipation. A few others come to mind - "Road Trip!", girls weekend, summer holidays, Christmas holiday, any holiday... you get the picture. There's something about travel that calms the mind and feeds the soul. That 'something', that intangible essence of travel - however you describe it - that 'something' has brought enrichment to my life and I'd like to share that with you.

Whether you're a dedicated and compulsive adventurer, or an arm-chair enthusiast, whether you search out local gems, or crave the unknown and exotic, or whether, like most of us, you just like to dream, Zoom-travels will guide you on your quest. I can show you where to travel, how to travel well, and how not to travel (from my own experience!).

Enjoy your short arm-chair vacation - I hope you find the insight and inspiration to make your travel dreams come true.
