10. UP IN THE AIR SOUNDTRACK: A great movie with some great performances, but the soundtrack is also very good, well about half of it. Mixes new school and old school with some great messages. If you like travel, this is a great place to start with some music.

9: U2 GREATEST HITS. Ok, here's the thing. I'm not a obessive U2 fan or nothing. I just think they got some good tunes, its inspring, and they mean good. They aren't the next coming of Jesus, but, good guys making good music.

BOYS AND GIRLS, IT'S LONELY AT THE TOP

Before God created Antigua, He invented amoebas, and only after He'd gotten that right did He tackle this larger-scale project, an island whose an in-and-out, in-and-out coastline forms 365 C-shaped coves with beaches. Exactly 365? Sounds like hype, although certainly, Antigua has enough protected coves to make it a favorite of yachties and resort guests. I figured, maybe 150 of them.

One afternoon when I was staying at Carlisle Bay, a luxury resort on the

Call me a masochist (or whatever), but even after sitting through the often cheesy but extremely popular annual song festival that is Eurovision and even penning a blow-by-blow review in May 2012, I’m back again this year.  What is it about this spectacle that has captivated many in Europe and beyond ever since its inception in 1956? Several reasons, perhaps. Big pop-music spectaculars seem to do reliably well among the public, and many folks do of course tune in because they want to hear good

‘Went to the centre of Australia. Saw a big rock. Had lasagne for dinner’

This morning, a brochure came through my letter box, promising an ‘Uluru Experience’. We could travel by four wheel drive, and camp under the stars … in fact, we could visit exactly the same places we visited six months ago. But, then, we travelled by coach, and stayed in a comfortable hotel, at two thirds of the price those operators were asking.

I don’t think it really matters how you get there, or where you stay. The impo

Minh Cam Cave, belonging to Minh Cam village, Phong Hoa commune, Tuyen Hoa district, is a famous archaeological site of Quang Binh province.

In 1992, the archaeoligist E.Patte unearthed Minh Cam Cave and found traces of ancient people. It was a skull of a 9-year-old girl who featured Negrito race. Besides, he discovered a piece of bone of lower jaw that belonged to a person in Mongoloid race.

Rock axes and quadrilateral axes, pottery and jewelry also were found here. Basing on archaeological relic

The unspoiled, idyllic beauty of the nature and human of Ha Giang in this season are depicted in the following pictures.

 Nui Doi Mount

Nui Doi Mount is associated with the legendary love story of a Hmong boy with a fairy. The couple’s love was hindered by the god. The fairy was forced to return to the Heaven after she had a child with the Hmong man. The fairy cut her breasts and left them in the lower world to feed her child, which are now the Nui Doi Mountain.

According to legend, thanks to the m

Miami is full of culture and each culture has it’s own traditions, practices but most importantly food. As a native Miamian I thought I knew all there was to know about Miami when it came to good restaurants and where to eat what but recently I went on Miami Culinary Tours South Beach lunch tour to be taught a lesson.

Covering a variety of cuisines from Colombian, to Cuban, to Jewish, to Italian, to Venezuelan, to Peruvian the tour did a pretty great job of encompassing an entire city’s melting p

It was a bit like playing bumper cars in the middle of Roaring Rapids. There I was, perched very alert in my high-tech individual rafting tube, bouncing off a rock to my left only to spin off a rock on my right and now speeding backwards down the chute to smack the huge wave in the “Coca Cola” rapid dead-on. Facing the wrong way had its advantages … the wave went over my head instead of right in my face. Either way, it was exhilarating and I was very wet!

I was riding the rapids of the Savegre Ri

Hotel guests have said it again and again: after location, and service that exceeds  expectations, free and reliable WiFi matters the most.
So why do hotels charge for WiFi and why do guests have to struggle find a location that works?

Hotelchatter  says that while most hotels provide free Wi Fi, (according to their 1013 Hotel WiFi report , more than two-thirds of hotels say they provide the free service), "availability can be limited to the lobby, or its only free for a while before you have t

Dong Van plateau is known as one of the 77 geological parks in the world and the second in Southeast Asia after the Langkawi Geological Park in Malaysia. With an immense area of limestone mountains and deserts of rugged rocks, the plateau is also called the land of rocks. Yet, the locals have, for thousands of years, attached their whole lives to their native land and earn their living on small pieces of land on the rocky mountains.

Going to the northern mountain provinces, tourists may see rocks
