Oregon Sun, Snow, and Waterfalls

Tue, 17 Apr 2007 15:52:00 GMT

Yes, the sun does come out in Oregon. Once in a while. Taking advantage of the good weather, we took the top down in our rented convertible (that has good gas mileage!) This video was shot in the Willamette National Forest, where we drove from Cougar Hot Springs up, up, up to the snowy Santiam Overpass and Sahali Falls.

Tai O: Houses on Stilts in Hong Kong

Wed, 28 Feb 2007 16:29:00 GMT

Producer: indietrekker

Think Hong Kong is all skyscrapers and crowded streets? On the southwestern coast of Lantau, one of Hong Kong's outlying islands is a fishing village called Tai-O. It's one of the last remaining fishing villages with stilt houses built hundreds of years ago. We take a boat ride around these houses built on water, get lost on the "boardwalk", and eat spicy prawns with an off-color Chinese name.
