If you are the type who doesn't want to be pressured by the tight schedules of tour operators or is too worried about getting lost and having unlucky encounters on the road, then the Hop on Hop off Bus can save your life.
There are 2 kinds of Hop On Hop off in Melaka: The Red Line and The Blue Line.
The Red Line stops at 13 interesting places all within the city center, while the blue line stops in 23.
I really suggest you take this one because it's really cheap and serves the same ...

There are so many things that made Rothbury the most spectacular festival I have ever attended, and rather than spew out gobbelygook with no direction, I will do things in a semi ordered format just so you can appreciate the absolute awesomeness that Rothbury was.
In no particular order, aside from my own memory, this is my list of specific reasons why Rothbury was so damned amazing. (subject to change)
1. The drive to the fest. 2. Getting into the festival. 3. The Tickets and wristbands. 4...

I got an email from my mom about there being an LL Bean in Beijing, and so of course, I had to find it. After looking on the internet, I found that there is indeed one, and it isn't too far from my apartment. It's in a mall near Chaoyang Park. So today, we (roomie and I) headed up that way. After taking the new and chiny line 10 from Shuangjing to Liangmaqiao where we got on a bus. First thing I noticed about Solana was that it was big (didn't know how big though...

Photos I've taken in many different places, but can't remember the small details enough to make a proper blog.

The Utrechtse Heuvelrug is the hilly countryside! The Municipality of Utrechtse Heuvelrug was established in 2006 through the merger of a few small villages. I've moved from Maarsbergen to Maarn 2 years ago. Maarn is one of the Netherlands last fully intact garden villages. I wish i was living in one of the little garden houses in Tuindorp, all rental but there's a very long waitinglist! Its a healty area with lots of forests, farms and castles so its perfect for hiking and biking.

I have a big friends-group, since 10 yrs we go every year with a group on holiday.
Don't expect too much from that, the most of the times we are just hanging around, swimming, playing carts, go to the beach, going out and maybe if we have time left do some cultural stuff.
This year we planned to do more cultural things... unfortunatly one suitcase got lost and all cashmachines in the neighbourhood where broken so we couldn't get any money to do the jeepsafari trough the desert etc... So we ...

Last stop on my tour of dead commie leaders was Lenin. Like with Ho Chi
Min and Mao no one is allowed to take pictures, all bags must be left
at the Left Luggage for a fee, but going in the mausoleum itself is
free. Lenin's mausoleum was very creepy. There weren't many people
there so it was just my mom, brother, a british girl we meet at
Galena's Flat and me in the tomb. It's not very well lit and wall's and
floor are black so it was a little difficult to see where the steps
were. Whe...

The 15 windmills of Bangui are visible from the highway on the way to Pagudpud. We've been told that seeing it from afar is not enough. One was to get close to appreciate these wonderful structures. And that we did the very next day. Hiring a tricycle from our resort to the windmills took about an hour (by private of course travel time can be cut in half). As we neared the windmills, they got bigger and better. By the time we reached the beach, we were greeted by this humongous white structur...

It was great! The hostel is actually the olympic stadium used for the Helsinki Olympics in the 1950's.
There was three of us so we got a room for ourselves. The breakfast buffet, although not included, we great and less than 6 euros. It very easy to get downtown and to the train station by bus or tram.

NIGHTMARE.
Imagine flying 20 hours...and showing up to your resort and they do not have a room for you. Now add you are in South Africa...there are rolling blackouts, it is a holiday week, and the natives are fighting and burning down homes nearby. The front desk staff were not helpful. They simply handed me the phone and the RCI representative said they never heard of me, either. Yes, I did reconfirm (or try to with Southern Sun Central reservations). They acknowledge they got my emails ...

There is absolutely nothing to do at Paradise, but that's why I loved it there. You don't have to worry about anything. Three meals are included in the price. The food is WONDERFUL and they come get you when it's time to eat. You don't even need to bring your watch!
I paid $20 a night for a room by myself. It $15 each for 2 sharing a room. There are also more expensive rooms with more features.
If you want to get away and just relax, eat, swim, and sleep go to Paradise. Call or email f...

Columbus, Ohio is my point of origin for this trip around the world. My brother and I are leaving for Philadelphia this afternoon, which represents the first leg of a what promises to be a long, rewarding journey. Even though I've got a lot to do in the coming hours - and it is a bit chaotic - I almost feel it's the calm before the storm. I'm not sure it's hit me yet, what I am about to embark upon.

Having spent a long session in the internet café, I chose an Island attraction on the south coast and drove down to see Orwell Historic Village.
The day was getting very hot and humid, so the main museum building was welcome relief with its air conditioning and pretty staff girls in period dress. I wandered around the agricultural museum reading accounts from local farmers of yore. Life was tough, with plenty of hard character building work so I went and bought some lemonade to cool...
