Introduction

Guten Tag fellow vagabonds. Lived in Germany, CA, MT, MA, ND. Fluent in German, learning Spanish & basic phrases in Arabic, Hindi & Chinese for trips on the rest of the Earth & beyond (Mons Olympus, the HUGE Martian volcano!). AWESOME! Tchuss

What's the craziest thing that happened in one of your travels?

Hmmm. I think these should be shared on our first trip together. Or last? :-p

What's one tip you've learned along the way?

Oh I'm supposed to learn here too? Darn! LOL. There's good in everything juuuust keep all 7 of your senses open. How many can you name? :-D Tip 2: contact Meetup groups where you're visiting and share fun with them. We did in Florida twice! Ask us.

Where do YOU want to go?

Krazy? Hmm, explore: Asia: Himilayas, Taj Mahal, Great Wall Africa: Abu Simbel, sail "De-Nial" Americas: Macchu Pichu, Patagonia Australia/NZ : Uluru, swim w/manta rays Antarctica? US: kayak w/orcas Space witness Earth's wonders. Why not?

What Danny is saying about this Meetup Group

Great bunch of fellow adventurers.

Also, for a great kayaking/hiking trip sign up with a local kayak rental/tour group and paddle on the Colorado River from the base of Hoover Dam to Willow Beach. Flat water, good flow with a couple nice hikes along the way. The scenery is breathtaking and if you are good at spotting wildlife, you might see big horn sheep and eagles. If open water is more your thing, paddle Lake Mead, starting and ending at Hemingway Harbor. You can paddle from there to the back of the dam, which is 8 mile RT.

Danny: From October to March the migratory birds are in abundance at all the birding sites you found on the Audubon site, as well as the "local" birds. A good place to see the locals is the Springs Preserve on Valley View, just south of the I-95. The Audubon society conducts bird walks at the Springs Preserve, so check their calendar to see if one will be held while you are in Vegas. If they aren't, take your birding glasses and go yourself. It is worth the price of admission.

Welcome Aboard! I'm hoping this little group can be friendly, fun, and enjoyable. No big-deal stuff, just fine folks having a good time out in nature.

I am particularly interested in changing the name of this group..."Liquid" sounds a bit overbearing and a copy-cat from the fine folks up in Columbus.

So, I'm looking for ideas...let me know.

Where did you live in Europe? My son studied in Europe a couple years and I went to visit him many times. Loved hiking in the Alps.

DAnny, what is "auto-schwimmbad"? I am sure we can clarify tomorrow. :-)

I would also be willing to start from Northside if that is agreeable with others.

Hey Danny, I would like to do the Reds Ride/Game on Sunday but it looks like there are no participants. I would hate to buy a ticket and then be the only one attending. Will you still lead the group if there are only 2 of us?

Thanks for your note Danny - not sure if we met but will probably meet on a future paddling trip.
