In 2013 it's hardly news that that dining options in big luxury hotels have for the most part evolved way beyond the good-quality-but-bland fare of yore, with high-profile marquis restaurants showcasing some of the world’s top chefs. But in my experience, few offer a culinary experience so cozy, intimate, and downright romantic as downtown Miami’s Trapiche Room. The fine-dining star of the four eating/drinking venues at the 274-unit, Four-Diamond JW Marriott Hotel on downtown’s premier business

November means autumn school breaks and Thanksgiving week in the USA. It’s time for your fall family vacation.
This year, be ahead of the learning curve and visit one of the world’s largest “outdoor classrooms” in the sun and tropics of Costa Rica.

I met a woman and her husband in the airport recently, while we were waiting to board our flight out of Costa Rica. They were tanned and relaxed, and had been enjoying the country's beaches and rainforest … all for free! They had won a work contest to sell the most furniture for their company and earned the free incentive trip. This was actually the couple's second year in a row to win – last year they went on a cruise to Mexico.
This is pretty ingenious – sell a lot of products for your company,
Reviews do matter. A report by SAS noted that positive reviews (less so TripAdvisor-based rank and brand), followed by lower price were the most important influencers of choice.
And lower price or higher ratings don't overcome the impact of negative reviews.
But even in America, it's possible that more isn't better.
Writing reviews is almost a national pastime. Writing reviews on everything and saying pretty much what we want and being rewarded by some sort of badge or other "atta boy" reco

Theme parks are a natural fit for Halloween festivities: On a certain level, you might say it's always a Halloween party at theme parks - plus, most of the rides are already designed to scare the living daylights out of you. In October (and sometimes even earlier), some of theme parks have gently scary daytime Halloween events for kids as well as night terrors for teens and adults. Here's a (non-exhaustive) sampling from across the world (and keep in mind, for

Perhaps, nothing says “comfort food” more than pizza. If you’re traveling to the Napa Valley and crave paper thin, scrumptious pizza napoletana, pay a visit to Napa’s Oxbow Market, where you will find Ca’ Momi Pizzeria and Restaurant.
Ca’ Moni Winery was founded in 2006, created to pair old world winemaking talents from Italy with the finest Napa Valley grapes. Quickly realizing that crafting great wine was only half the accomplishment; the other was introducing it to the public. After perfecti

Era una mañana un tanto calurosa en el Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio. Acababa de visitar los predios de la zona y la humedad del ambiente pudo más que yo. Me dispuse a retomar el aliento sobre una de las bancas. Mientras descansaba bajo la sombra y sentía la brisa del mar, me percaté de que tenía hambre. Recordé que después de salir de Portasol había comprado dos paquetes de tortillas tostadas y las llevaba en la mochila.

Fleet tracking is something that is normally reserved for big businesses looking for the most efficient ways of transporting their goods around. However, there is a case for a similar method being used to try and improve issues with congestion on roads in Britain. Many people complain on a daily basis about the state of traffic on the roads so could fleet tracking be the solution?
Traffic issues
The traffic on the roads of Britain today is thought to be more than ever. Figures taken at the end of
Although it is one of Costa Rica's most spectacular destinations – for its gold and white sand beaches, world-class surfing, warm blue Pacific Ocean, and lush rainforest – the southern Nicoya Peninsula stays off the beaten tourist path. The reason is the region's remote location.
Going by ferry is the traditional way to get to the towns and beaches of the southern Nicoya Peninsula – Tambor, Montezuma, Mal Pais and Santa Teresa. The ferry leaves from the Central Pacific port of Puntarenas, and tak
