The Waterfalls of Dominica-<\/strong> No, not the Dominican Republic, though it, too, is a paradise, but Dominica&#8230; the seldom-stopped cruise port of the Caribbean. \u00a0Apparently the cruise crowd feels like there&#8217;s not enough shopping in Dominica. \u00a0Who cares when there are\u00a0paradisiacal\u00a0jungle waterfalls like these?<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g6sd_TU4G6o\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<strong>2. Hallstatt, Austria- <\/strong>If relaxation in supremely beautiful scenery is your thing, check this one out. \u00a0My blood pressure went down by, like, half just watching it. \u00a0Imagine what being there could do for you.<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tRO4Sd_SU5Q\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. African Safari with the 1000fights.com couple- <\/strong>This slideshow compilation from the bloggers&#8217; African safari will leave you wondering what they <em>didn&#8217;t<\/em> see. \u00a0We all dream of African safaris, why not pretend you&#8217;re on one and take a look?<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q1D-65wi6t8\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Camino de Santiago- <\/strong>Every good wanderluster should have a\u00a0pilgrimage\u00a0planned, and this is among the greatest. \u00a0An ancient Catholic crusade for penance, this path stretches from France across Northern Spain -an epic journey. \u00a0I&#8217;m set to do it in 2020 (please don&#8217;t tell my wife).<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cNnQwe2C2GE\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>5.
