I should probably start writing about being in Bermuda.
We had been scheduled to dock at King's Warf at about 11am on Sunday, but because of tropical storm Colin, they rerouted us and we ended up getting to the island at 8am on Monday. Luckily, they extended our time there until Wednesday at 5:30 pm rather than 1pm on Wednesday. I personally liked that better because only getting a day and a half on the island would not have been very worth it. Two days, however, is enough to cover a decent part of the island, but three would have

Make the most of your wildlife watching excursions in the United States by choosing destination cities that are near multiple parks and preserves. That way you can have a central hub and only have to make a single lodging reservation. In the continental 48 states, the northwest and the southeast are great picks.
Up north, settle in Seattle where several national parks, forests, and recreation areas are just a few hours in any direction. To the west you'll find Olympic National Park, where you can view cougars, elk, deer, bears and more than 300 species of birds, not to mention

Cruising (Part 2)

Now do not get me wrong; the cruise was a lot of fun and there were plenty of things on the boat to ensure that everyone was constantly having fun.
For instance, during the daytime they always had something to do every hour, such as playing silly games by the pool, going to an acupuncture or Chinese herbal medicine session, playing Bingo, line dancing sessions, and more. Some of their bigger events included Chocoholic Night (where they opened up one of the dining areas and served us all the chocolate we could ever want), White Out (a big dance party

Train Travel
September 2nd, 2010 by TJ Davis in Travel Planning
In the hectic pace of the modern world, airplanes have become the standard mode of traveling over long distances because flying can get you where you are going fast. Flight is the preferred mode of corporate travel; that is why so many credit cards offer points for airline miles. Vacationers fly often, as well, because the quicker you can get there and home, the more time you can spend "on vacation".
If you are not in a hurry, however, train travel can be a rewarding way to vacation. While it is slower than flight, traveling by train offers benefits that

River Street In Savannah, Georgia
August 31st, 2010 by Anna P. in Shopping, Summer Vacation, USA
Savannah's River Street is just that: a long block that looks out onto the famous Savannah River (and on a bit further to Hutchinson Island). What makes this street worth exploring? You'll find lots of shopping, dining, lounges, and unparalled views of the river. History buffs, families, art fans, and antique collectors love to shop River Street thanks to their fairly impressive collection of shops and galleries. And with a cobblestone road, this neighborhood is actually best explored by foot, just make sure you bring good walking shoes, a camera, and a list of what you've got to see
