Why it’s Not Too Late to Check Out the 2009 WSOP
If you think that theres no reason to go see the remaining WSOP action you might want to reconsider. There is still almost half of the tournament remaining
including the $50K H.O.R.S.E. Championship and the Main Event. There are three other 10K championship events still to be played

sampling the local food and drink
What I really like about traveling and seeing new places
is sampling the local food and drink. When you sit down to a meal or a sample of the local beverage
it tells you so much about the local culture. So whenever I travel
apart from checking out the local casino scene I always find a local restaurant or pub and sample the local produce. I like the smaller places that are family run
not the big chain restaurants where you are not sure that what you are getting
is actually local fare. And then I have a look around at the people and see how they interact and talk to each other. Once again that tells you a lot about people
just by watching them. For example having a coffee on a sidewalk in Italy is going to be different to eating tachos in Mexico… It also depends on the time of day that you go out. I remember traveling in Spain and it is almost impossible to get dinner before 9.00 pm
they eat late and that’s just the way it is. If you go and sit in a restaurant at 7.00pm which may be more of a normal time in other countries
then you will have a completely different experience compared to going out to eat at 10.00pm. In fact you will be lucky to eat at all at 7.00pm in Spain. Next time you travel sample the local food and drink
it tells you a lot about the people…
