Perhentian Islands, Malaysia

For more great information, photos and video about Malaysia, see PleaseTakeMeTo's Malaysia Travel Guide - www.pleasetakemeto.com Consisting of two islands, the larger, Perhentian Besar, and the smaller, Perhentian Kecil, the Perhentian Islands are just about an hours boat trip from Kota Baru on the North East Coast of Peninsula Malaysia. 'Perhentian' is a Malay word meaning 'place to stop'. The islands were once a regular place for weary traders to to stop over for a rest. Today, little has changed, only now travelers come from all over the world to 'stop' and to 'reconnect' with nature and themselves. The centerpiece of a marine park, the islands are fringed with clear white sand, and are surrounded by crystal clear waters and dazzling coral reefs. There are no roads on the Perhentians, but there are water taxis and jungle paths should visitors feel the need to explore. The Perhentian Marine Park is a renowned diving destination, the islands are home to numerous operators catering to all levels of divers. Most accommodations are right on the beach. By day, visitors head off to various diving locations around the park, or simply enjoy the sparkling waters only meters from their front doors. As the sun sets, the sound of soft music and relaxed conversation mingles with the smoke from barbecues in the cool night air. The Perhentian Islands; there is no better 'place to stop', it is just 'the leaving' which might prove difficult!

Russian Steam in Ukraine

Machines of Iron revisits Ukraine in the fall of 1996 when the countryside is resplendent in autumn colors and the air is filled with locomotive steam and smoke. A special steam excursion is the reason for our visit, and we travel aboard a comfortable passenger train behind several different Russian locomotives including a 0-10-0, doubleheaded 4-6-4s, and the most modern Russian steam locomotive, the P-36. Enjoy lots of color and culture, as we travel to this country rich in history. Our trip includes sightseeing trips to Kiev and Moscow
