Colorado Springs. USA Hockey

I flew from Detroit to Denver, admiring Denver Airport’s unique architecture. In Colorado Springs, home to the US Olympic Committee, they visited the USA Hockey headquarters, a museum-like space with trophies and memorabilia showcasing the importance of strong competition in sports.

Detroit. Red Wings

Detroit, a city known for bankruptcy, features an abandoned center and typical suburbs. It’s linked to famous names like Kid Rock, Eminem, Diana Ross, and Stevie Wonder. The city’s sports history is highlighted by the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings and the Russian Five. The old Joe Louis Arena was replaced by the multi-level ice Little Caesars Arena, which hosts diverse events like March Madness basketball.

Salzburg. Hangar 7

On a business trip to Austria, the highlight was Hangar 7, a museum highlighting Red Bull’s achievements. Contrary to the belief that they’re merely a soda company, Red Bull excels in content production linked to sports branding. This strategy has proven lucrative, with each can sold (typically netting a dollar) signifying their strong presence in sports. This approach has led to billions of cans sold, resulting in billions in revenue.

Trentino, Garda, and Bergamo

Explore Italy’s charm in Trentino’s Alpine beauty, and Lake Garda’s serenity. Nature, culture, and hidden gems await in this unforgettable journey. Italy’s allure knows no bounds. Buon viaggio!

Grand Canyon from a Plane

A scenic view of the Grand Canyon is visible from the left side of a plane on flights from Las Vegas to Dallas, and potentially better on flights to Denver due to the canyon’s northeast extension. The passage lists photos showing landmarks like Las Vegas, Lake Mead, and the Colorado River.

Grand Canyon from a Helicopter

In Boulder City, near Las Vegas, a small airport specializes in Grand Canyon flights. Pilot Hans from Bruges, Belgium, led an exciting tour for us.
