Not very many Images- Disappointing The ad and the packaging are a bit misleading. Please be aware when purchasing this item, that many of the pages do NOT contain images, but rather text only. It is very disappointing, since pictures make the context more interesting. Also Saturday and Sunday are lumped together so you are not getting a full 365 worth of coolness. I won’t be purchasing this one again.
Would be better with more photos I wish I had read the other reviews. This calendar really is lacking in photos. There are some, but they aren’t prominent and not all the days have one.I’m trying to inspire a love of travel in my kiddos. We wanted something “fun” to get them excited about new places (like getting to rip off the old day from the calendar every day, it doesn’t take much 😉 ) . I really needed the calendar to be photo-heavy. The descriptions are nice, but could have been kept on the back with…
Horribly uneven product This isn’t a picture a day a calender and it’s really meant to be. Without photos, the pages are basically pointless and totally boring. A good many of the sites listed are pretty grisly so be prepared. And it’s not like you can just hike to any of these spots any way. I would get a 1000 places to see before I die calender next time over this, without queation, which is too bad. Just a real let down. Even the writing was poor.
