By Alice N Lander

Thailand is one of the most beautiful and popular countries in the Southeast Asian region. It is usually the first port of call for those who are visiting Southeast Asia and has a wide variety of attractions for visitors. These include, stunning islands, beaches, culture, historical sites, trekking opportunities and amazing party places.

Bangkok is the most likely arrival point for those coming to Thailand. This vibrant city ha a lot to offer visitors and it is well worth getting away from the Koh San Road area of Banglamphu and spending time and other parts of the city. You will likely want to get out fairly soon though and head to one of the beautiful beaches on one of the islands.

For backpackers in Thailand it is pretty cheap to visit all the main places and the most popular beaches. For those on a shorter trip or holiday the choice is huge. If you are wanting visit an island, your best choice will likely be down to what you are wanting to do.

Families will be best suited to the beaches of Phucket, Koh Samui, Koh Pi Pi or Koh Lanta as these offer a higher level of accommodation options and better facilities. Party animals will love Koh Phangan for its party scene, especially during the full moon.

Backpackers who enjoy the hippy/reggae scene will enjoy the island of Koh Chang, which has live music every night and a beautiful beach. Divers will enjoy Koh Tao, Which has amazing dive sites and the perfect and cheapest place to become a qualified scuba diver.

There are also beaches in Thailand that are on the mainland and are close to Bangkok, which are perfect if you do not want to travel too far south. These include the beaches of Pattaya and Hua Hin. Krabi is also on the mainland but it is further south, but boasts incredible beaches, the James Bond limestone karst and tremendous climbing.

Those who prefer a more cultural experience should really head north to Chiang Mai, Pai, Chiang Rai and Mai Hong Song. Here there are plenty of trekking opportunities to hill tribe villages. Chiang Mai is beautiful city, the old center of the city contains many beautiful Lanna style Buddhist temples and There is also Wat Doi Suthep, which is a famous temple up on a hill just outside of the city.

How To Do Australia on the Cheap!

By Jonny Blair

Who told you Australia was expensive? Someone that didn't do it on the cheap like me...

I've heard from loads of people that have gone backpacking in the land down under that it is a dear or expensive place to travel. These people really must be living a luxury lifestyle if that's their impression of the land down under. Australia has to have been one of the cheapest places I have ever travelled and worked in, I earned tons of money when I was living there, enough to take four months off work. Young and inexperienced backpackers must be doing things wrong if they find it expensive. Maybe they are perhaps ill-informed, badly prepared or just spending their cash in the wrong way. I've concocted 12 sure fire reasons, all from personal experience on how to live cheaply in Australia.

1. Sleeping - Yes hostels are great but take a break away from them. Don't just spend your whole time in hostels getting pissed! Camping out is the best accomodation option for travelling cheap in Australia. A tent can be purchased for $15 - 20 and some nights you will end up camping out for free. Make a tent your home for a few months as you "backpack" your way round the land down under. Nearly all campsites have toilets and showers by the way, lots of them are also close to places where you can get part time and temporary jobs.

2. Eating - If you really want to eat out, head to pubs that have $10 steaks and similar offers. They often also give you a beer or a soft drink as part of the offer. A useful hint I used while in Australia is checking out pubs or bars that offer cheap big meals and monitor the times they apply. I noticed that most of them are around lunchtime - that's when they have the most specials. Come on it's hardly a big deal to transfer your biggest meal of the day from dinner to lunch. You can easily just eat cereals and toast for breakfast. And you're a backpacker so don't be afraid to head into Hungry Jacks or McDonalds for a cheap breakfast. Hungry Jacks also offer unlimited refills on drinks - so why not take your flask in and top it up? They're won't chase you out you're a paying customer. McDonalds also offers free wi-fi. You can always fall back on good old vegemite sandwiches! One of my favourites!

3. Transport - First things first - travel overland! I spent around 2 years living in Australia and I didn't once fly internally. Book Greyhound buses and book them early if you know your dates, or even better meet up with others, buy a car (or share the cost of buying a car) and make it your home - you can sleep in it and live in it - buy a gas cooker, a battery pack and a wireless internet pre paid USB stick and suddenly you have everything you need. You get a job more easily if you have a car, you can soon earn enough to cover what the car cost you and you can also share lifts to save money on petrol. Make sure if you are getting a long distance Greyhound bus get it at night as you'll save money on accommodation (simple obvious tips are the best). Use notice boards and online backpack websites and groups to arrange transport with others and broaden your options.

4. Get some kind of a Working Visa - I don't understand travellers that are able to get a working holiday visa for Australia but yet they don't buy it. The number of travellers I met in the land down under that say things like "we only plan to stay for a few months so we're not planning to work" and then they follow it with "this place is expensive", so why didn't you get some kind of a working visa then?! Do it - even by working for a week or two in Australia can earn you over 1000 Australian Dollars.

5. Entrance Fees - Again it sounds obvious but don't be paying entry into places - there are loads of FREE things to see and do in Australia. Hiking for one, some amazing landscapes to see, beaches (completely free), fancy dress parties (make your own costumes for free), museums are often also free entry (including the amazing War Memorial in Canberra), as is walking across Sydney Harbour Bridge. If you want to see Koalas and Kangaroos - these can all be done for free. Kennet River on the Great Ocean Road is a decent spot for Koala watching at sunrise. Kangaroos and wallabies are hard to miss.

6. Coupons, vouchers, tokens - The amount of travellers I met who never bother picking up those brochures, fliers etc. that lurk in bus stations, airports, pubs, hostels, tourist information centres etc. - I kept picking up these brochures and finding money off coupons, savings on tours etc. Bars often even give out a free beer to entice you in - go in, take your free beer and leave.

7. Buy Value Brands - Value brands such as those available in Woolworths and Coles are worth buying. The quality of the food and drink is really not that much worse than the top brands to be honest and yu can live a healthy and stable eating lifestyle by buying the cheap stuff.

8. Nightclubs after 10pm - did you really go to Australia just to attend expensive nightclubs? I certainly didn't! You'll notice that after 9 or 10 pm (especially on weekends) the prices of drinks go up. Seriously to all those backpackers in Australia - get yourself a carryout, a box of goon and some tinnies and sit with your new found friends.

9. Internet - I also met a couple of guys in Brisbane moaning about the price of the internet. I never once paid to use internet in Australia. Leave facebook alone until you really need it. What do you think travellers did 20 years ago before the likes of facebook? Exactly! Get to meet people in the hostels and campsites and hang out with them. I went 5 weeks without being online when I was in Tasmania. I had some experiences and travel tales in that time that I wouldn't have got sitting on facebook! If you really, really insist on using internet in Australia at least be clever about it - maximise your usage of it when you have it for free in a hostel while you have it. The next campsite or hostel may not have it or may charge for it. If all else fails, bring a small laptop with you and buy the cheapest coffee in McDonalds and sit and use their free wifi (free all over Australia and normally for about 20 minutes).

10. Hold back on booking things early. Plans in Australia always change so don't be booking tours or hostels in other towns or cities that you expect to be in in a few weeks time. You might change your plans and have already paid a deposit. Go with a free spirit and enjoy it!

11. Laundry - The obvious is to wear the same clothes over and over again, and hand wash them. Done that myself manys a time. If you really feel the need to use laundry - get 2-3 cotton buds on sticks and stick them in the coin slots in the machines to get free laundry. Most of you reading will know this trick. A well known travellers "secret".

12. Fake Being a student - Things suddenly become cheaper when you show a student card. Who cares if it's real or not? Aussies are so laid back, they'll be happy of your money (even at a discount rate) so don't fret and get a fake one done!

Honestly, folks this might sound like a bit of a rant and in many ways it is, BUT I just really want to let people know that Australia is a magnificent country and a great place to go. And it's cheap if you know what you're doing!! Those are just a few of my tips - there are tons more ways to save money.

Go to Australia, economise, live cheap and love it. You'll probably have better fun than those you don't and come away moaning about the price of the wonderful land down under.

Tips For Finding A Good Fishing Report

By Brooke Nash

Resources may be scarce at times and are thus to be appropriated properly, so one must have knowledge of what resources he needs at a given situation. A good research can mean the difference between coming home with a full or empty cooler. Leverage on an nc fishing report to ascertain a catch.

Other people rely entirely on years of sea experience and knowledge, but considering a forecast may be more beneficial as they also get the general consensus of fishermen in the area. This will be helpful to new fishermen or those who are at a new locality. Going prepared will make a trip worth the hassle of finding good reports, especially when it yields for a greater catch.

Finding the location is an essential step. It is necessary because every district have individual reports available. Ascertain that your forecast has the right locality because each location will differ from another, it would be disastrous to find yourself somewhere with small fishes when you equipped yourself for big ones.

The reports also detail fishing techniques that can be employed on your trip. This helps with preparation as it allows you to get correct equipment, instruments and tools. This can result to a successful trip and allow you contingencies in case one option fails.

Ascertain that in your chosen forecast, weather patterns are also included. You have to know whether your boat, equipment, and skills come to par given a specific weather condition. Best areas you can go to can be predicted too because temperature will determine availability of food and comfort, drawing aquatic animals to said area.

Picking out forecasts that give out information on the species you are expected to find and when to find them is also beneficial. Many reports include calendars serving as basis for coming up with a plan for your expedition. This gives you enough time in order to prepare what you will need on said expedition.

Being ready will serve a great purpose to you and the environment. This means fewer wasted efforts on your part and less stress to the environment because you will not need to settle with mediocre catch as you already know where you will find your intended game. This also lessens fuel wasted moving around trying to find a good spot, reducing carbon footprint.

Allot time for preparation to enjoy a pleasant venture. Several resources are available out there. Be sure to find one that is best for your nc fishing report.

Do travellers still send postcards?

By Jonny Blair

One of my first travel memories was seeing a postcard come through our letterbox when I was a child in Bangor, Northern Ireland. As a kid, you ignore those boring brown or white envelopes and you are intrigued by colour so the postcard that arrived in the post caught my eye.

It was either a postcard from the Netherlands or from London, but I told my Mum I wanted to keep it. For me a postcard is the ultimate travel souvenir. A postcard itself is a journey. It means little or nothing to get an e-mail with a photo on it when you compare it with the journey of a postcard. I fear it's becoming a forgotten art, hence why I still send my family a postcard from EVERY single new place I go.

When I visited family last I found my travelling postcard collection - the collection now contains over 100 postcards from over 50 countries. Amazing journeys for these bits of card.

All bought in various shops across all seven continents (yes, I bought and posted a postcard when I was in Antarctica!), then written with details about what I did there at the time, then a stamp is put on them, then I find a post office or postbox and post them. Then the completion of the journey when my family receive the postcard. What an amazing journey.

From a very cold chilly hut in the British Antarctic Base of Port Lockroy I bought, wrote and posted postcards. From the world's coldest continent all the way to Northern Ireland in the northern hemisphere, this is a great journey for a bit of card, miles from the world of internet and mobile phones.

I bet there are young travellers out there wondering why people still send postcards when you can do everything quicker and easier on e-mail. But it's the story of the postcard that does it for me.

Spot the difference:

1. An e-mail: E-mail v Postcard? I logged on and typed an email and sent it from a computer. I think we all know the answer to that one, at least I do!

2. Postcard: Postcard v. e-mail? A real life physical postcard is bought, written and posted. You don't even need internet access!

Which one would you rather receive?

Don't forget on your next trip you should send a postcard! A physical present. Sending postcards to friends and family really puts a smile on their faces and means a lot more to people than an e-mail.

Postcards are great - keep writing and posting them everywhere you go!

Cutting Your Packing in Half for Week Long Getaways

By Joseph Tranturder

One of the number one attractions in the Albuquerque area is a murder mystery dinner event. Become a lead detective and find out the secrets of Rosenburg and Greenglass over a delicious meal prepared just for you. Previous visitors rave that the event is a smashing success every time. It's entertaining, filling and enlightening.

Wash your clothes by hand halfway through the week. If you're anything like the rest of the country, that doesn't sound like a very appealing idea.

Located close to the center of Albuquerque, it's not hard to find either. Don't go out to eat at a boring restaurant when you can come solve a mystery. Dinner's just a perk here. Spend a day in New Mexico's breathtaking mountains.

The reason is for convenience and to save you money. As counter intuitive as it sounds, it's more convenient for you to take a carry-on rather than check a bag (when flying) or lugging another suitcase along then it is to spend less than an hour in the middle of your trip to wash everything.

However each individual airline will have their own regulations and stipulations that will have to be met before they will agree to transport your weapons and should therefore be contacted beforehand to ensure a smooth transition of the weapon from your possession to theirs. Being placed in an airport security holding cell is not the best way to start your hunting trip.

Arrive at any time and spend the day there. There is more than enough things to do to keep you busy, and admission is pretty cheap for the memories you'll make here.

Drop in to visit the animals and plants at the Albuquerque Biological Park. The park is a museum made up of four different entities: the Albuquerque Aquarium, Rio Grande Botanic Gardens, Rio Grande Zoo and Tingley Beach. The zoo covers over 64 acres with more than 2.5 miles of paths to get lost on. Seek out the elephants, giraffes, lions, snow leopard, gorillas and zebras.

Once all clothes have been laundered, drain the soapy water out of the sink and turn on a steady stream of cold water. Go through and rinse out the soap and wring each garment until it's damp. Hang each piece around the bathroom to dry for the day. They should be ready to pull down the next day. Some heavier clothing could use some time with a hair dryer to help in the drying process. The benefits are worth the time it takes.

They have all the services you need to obtain perfect relaxation after so many months of straight working. It's amazing how much one day in the bath or day spa can help you regain so much strength and peace of mind. You come out feeling peaceful. Every care in your body seems to ebb away, making it easier to focus your energies on doing what you want, instead of on how you feel.

When you hand wash your clothes in the sink, you can pack half the clothes you would use for the week. It takes a little work, but it can be worth it if you're trying to cut down on the number of clothes you bring with you. Ramada is dedicated to helping travelers ease the burden of packing for their week long trips. They are part of the Albuquerque hotel scene in New Mexico.

By being prepared beforehand and by doing your research a hunter venturing into the areas surrounding Albuquerque can better enjoy their trip and mitigate the stresses of traveling.

South Africa Holidays for Family or Adventure

By Alfred Pappas

Create a short email, preferably less than 8 lines, and then customize your template for each potential customer.

It may seem like a boring, mundane task, but try to keep your customers updated about the goings-on within your tour company.

Advertising is essential to any whale tour business. It's the best way to increase sales and exposure to your tour business. Make sure to keep enough money aside to put towards marketing your business in order to keep generating more tour business.

Realise Your Car's Maximum Performance

By Anne Rowan

None of us drives in the exact same way. The conditions under which we are subjected while driving vary as well. Yet although those two facts exist, cars are still programmed according to average conditions under which an average driver is supposedly subjected to. That said it comes as no surprise that we find certain issues with the manner our vehicles perform. But the good news is we can possibly do something about it.

Drivers can push their cars to their maximum performance by modifying the maps on those wheels. That will optimise all the aspects in order for the cars to deliver more than they currently do for the convenience of their users.

So head to the shop and let your vehicle undergo the tuning that can actually exploit its fullest potential. A trained mechanic will check to see where it needs adjustments and make such modifications accordingly. Your vehicle can undergo the process called Vehicle ECU remapping where the external computer will be plugged on it so that a mechanic can access the performance details which will help him determine the condition of your car and what measures can be employed to further make it efficient. Apart from that, there is another way to optimise your car's performance. There is the process called Dyno Tuning. It's performed in order for your car to deliver the smoothest and most economical performance on the street.

With the changes made on your car taking into consideration you as its driver and the conditions under which you drive, will cause the brakes on your car to make you stop just when you need to. In addition to that, your modified suspension will also allow you to steer more easily through every bend on the road. Moreover, your tyres, which separate your car from the road itself, will for their part, make your grips and handles work better too.

Maximum performance isn't all there is to both procedures. Rather, they also spot problems on the vehicle that the owners might not have figured out otherwise. Hence, they properly address issues, including the ones which are not apparent but may nevertheless put drivers at risk.

Travelling's Unwanted Souvenirs

By Helen Price

Are you an avid backpacker? Have you just come from a sixty-day backpacking trip across Asia, crossing the mainland on overnight buses and trains, pedalling your way around Angkor's many temples and eating freshly caught seafood in Vietnam? Most people will rave about your life, because indeed, nothing beats the exhilaration of waking up in a new place every single time.

Then again, after going home, you realise that you've carted with you far more than you have bargained for. Along with the tonnes of photos and countless memories, you happen to have bed bugs too. And this is true for practically any traveller. Inns, dormitories, hostels, sleeper buses, and trains all create the risk of exposure to these annoying pests, which cling to clothes and backpacks and stay there well after you've come home.

Bed bugs, like all other pests, are a nuisance to daily life, causing itch and irritation to the skin. Thankfully however, the problem on bed bugs is conveniently solved with effective pest control. Pest management professionals can ably get rid of bed bugs and prevent them from breeding by looking at infected spots of your home and surrounding areas and disinfecting their breeding grounds. Pest Control In Singapore requires a highly technical process, not the least since it involves chemicals not anybody can administer. This means that once you discover an infestation, do not take it upon yourself to eliminate them, spraying random chemicals that are not made for bed bug eradication in the first place.

Once eliminated, you also have to ensure you do not put in another batch from your upcoming travels. To minimise the infestation of bed bugs, take a little more caution with your belongings while travelling. Because bed bugs cling to cloth, do not place your backpacks and clothes on practically any surface. It's always better to keep your clothes inside your backpack or else hang them instead of leaving them lying around.

Once home, you have to empty your backpack away from your couches, carpets, and particularly your bed, and put it directly into the laundry for washing. Separate your soiled clothes from your travels from the rest of your laundry as well. Wash also all the other clothes you brought with you in transit even if you didn't use them. Wash also the cloth pouches you usually overlook since they are as susceptible to tiny pests as every other cloth in your backpack.

Sailing Through Neptune's Bellows Antarctica

By Jonny Blair

In Antarctica Deception Island is just an incredible place to see. To get there we had to veer our boat through the narrow passage known as Neptune's Bellows. We gathered on deck and looked out in awe as this marvellous island came into view. Indeed the magic of Deception Island in Antarctica was just beginning.

It was cold and chilly on deck and a wee bit windy. A brave crowd had gathered on deck to view our narrow entrance through the slim channel into Deception Island.

Deception Island in Antarctica is c shaped! This makes the entrance into it very tricky through the narow pasage known as Neptune's Bellows. The ship swayed a bit but the captain did a great job in steering us into into the magical Deception Island.

And the entrance is like going into the letter "c" so this was a special slow motion part of the Antarctica adventure, another exciting time to be up on deck as the captain, Bulgarian Asparuh Chorbadzhiev sailed us into the narrow entrance at Neptune's Bellows.

It was one of a few times I visited the Bridge during the sailing and it was quite busy - everyone wanted to hear and watch the captain at work in what is a tricky job.

There is a photo I took of the captain just as we were entering Neptune's Bellows to head into Deception Island which prtrays the magnitude of it.

The location of Neptune's Bellows is near Port Foster at the entrance point to Deception Island in Antarctica. Deception Island itself is part of the South Shetland Islands. The geographic location is 63o 0 s, 60o 34 w and the bellows are named after Neptune, a Roman God of nature.

Despite strong winds, the captain steered the boat calmly through Neptune's Bellows and into Deception Island where a magical experience lay ahead. This was an amazing journey!

Alternatives to hiring a campervan from Britz

By Tim Ahern

If you are thinking about taking a vacation in Australia and renting a campervan or motorhome, then chances are you will come across the company, Britz, in your research. But maybe before you go ahead and hire from them, you should have a quick look at some of the alternatives that don't have the marketing muscle to get your attention. After all there are over 60 other companies vying for you campervan dollar. Read on to find out about some competition to Britz.

Undoubtedly, Britz is the leading player in the Australian market. Not only do they have the powerful "Britz" brand, but also some of Australia's other famous brands like Kea Campers, Maui Campervans and Mighty Campers. Probably the biggest competitor to these is Apollo Campervans. The largest privately owned chain in Australia, it consists of multiple brands: Apollo, Cheapa Campa and Hippy Campers. These 2 companies alone combine to have the 7 largest and best known brands across Australia (and New Zealand).

If searching for a campervan rental in the budget price range, you are going to find Hippy Campers and Mighty Campers, however you are also going to come across Wicked Campers. Wicked are a key player in the budget market but make little impact on the other market segments, so if looking for a mid-range or luxury style, don't bother with Wicked. Wicked have a reputation for being unruly and unreliable. They, as a company, are known bend rules and ethics and also have a reputation for under-servicing their vehicles. However, they are also dead cheap and the vehicles work often enough that they have expanded their fleet across the world in to many, many countries. They are a business model success story. However, if the stories you hear are true and you are looking for a budget alternative, then try looking in to Awesome Campers or Travellers Autobarn. Awesome Campers has had rapid expansion in the last couple of years so must be doing things to keep people coming back and Travellers Autobarn has been winning awards for some years now. Put them on your list to research for prices.

But Britz really is aimed at the middle to upper price range of campervans. So what are some alternatives in this range? Well, staying clear of the aforementioned camper companies that are owned by Britz and Apollo, one mentionable alternative is Around Australia Motorhomes. This company is going for the luxury motorhome market and are definitely hitting their mark. No skimping with this crowd! Their fleet consists mainly of top-end Winnebago's for the clientele that want space and luxury during their travel. If this is you, then definitely get a price from them before booking anywhere else. Independently owned, they pride themselves on client satisfaction and are a small enough company to care what the end user thinks but large enough to have a number of vehicle options.

If looking in the mid-priced campervan range, then you should at least keep an eye out for a group called Energi Motorhomes. They don't tend to appear early in Google search results unless you are specifically looking for them, but their vehicles and their feedback are both of good quality. Energi seem to pop up in results for price-comparison websites that compare 10 or more campervan hire companies, so if they are not in any results you come up with, keep looking. If you don't get a comparison price on these guys, you are short-selling your research when trying to find the best bang-for-buck, mid range company. The vehicles are generally quite new with the latest bells and whistles and the pricing is normally pretty good.

Additionally, in the mid range price market, keep an eye out for Camperman Campervans. Recently they have been becoming a major player in a market that is full of also-rans. They have been one of the fastest growing companies in the mid to upper price-range, offering new vehicles that fit nicely in to the market. Whilst they are definitely pushing their new vehicles, they are still holding on to some of the older ones that they had when they were smaller. With these older vehicles, they can still tap in to the cheaper end market too. They have bases up the whole length of the east coast of Australia and so they offer quite an alternative to Britz and the other major players that are in this market segment.

So, if you are researching campervan, motorhome or RV hire in Australia, then there are definitely some alternatives to look at other than Britz and the other major players. Only a handful have been discussed here but, for example, if hiring a campervan from Sydney, you will find that there are at least 30 different campervan companies to choose from. So make sure when you are researching who to choose from, that you find a website that compares prices on at least 20 of these. There are plenty of sites out there that will only show you the 7 major companies. Don't sell yourself short and be limited to these. There are plenty of alternatives to Britz Campervans in Australia.

Tenerife Island's Villa Cortes? One Great Place to Stay for the Holidays

By Willoughby Jackson

Tenerife has always been a place that my friends and I have wanted to visit. Once we had the chance, we immediately booked ourselves on a flight to Tenerife and pre-booked our rooms in advance. Now that that's being taken care of, we are in high spirits and raring to go to our Tenerife holiday.

Thinking back to that day still brings a smile to my face. During the flight, since most of us were first timers in Tenerife, we were all so worked up over our impending holiday. Nevertheless, people were so hyped up the moment the plane touched down in Tenerife Airport. The festive energy was very contagious. The first thing that came into our minds upon disembarking was to go ahead to the beach. The sun was up so high that day, that we all wanted to experience wind, sun and surf in Tenerife. However, there is still the need to check in to the hotel to begin our luxury holidays to Tenerife.

A long discussion ensued regarding our hotel choices. Nevertheless, everyone agreed that we will sample the Villa Cortes in Tenerife's Playa de Las Americas area. The Villa Cortes turned out to be a Mexican-themed resort with only 151 bedrooms in total. The hotel features five bars and had five restaurants. When we arrived, we treated ourselves to a full course that was excellently prepared by a very competent chef and his staff. Life should've been that way everyday and not just for a week.

Now, we had selected the Playa de Las Americas because of its night life. We are not party animals by heart, but even we know that it would be an incomplete holiday if people did not sample a destination's night life. For the five days we spent in the Playa, we always ended the day with a night cap at one of the bars in the Veronicas coupled with good music and great people. It was principally one whole week of partying, food and socializing with locals and fellow tourists alike.

Of course, there is also the beach. The Villa Cortes made it easy for us to head over to the beach and the seaside if we felt like it. It simply takes a few minutes' walk from our hotel room for us to arrive at the white sands that Tenerife is known for. If we wanted to dive into the ocean or just bask in the sun, we only had to walk for a couple of minutes or so.

Playa de Las Americas, of course, is not the sole attraction that Tenerife has to offer the tourists like us. Check out this recommended site for holidaymaker destinations to Tenerife if you want to learn more about this island in the Canaries. You need a lot of information when planning your luxury holidays to Tenerife 2013. However, when you are there, your concern should only be having fun and enjoying your holiday.

About the Author:

Our interest were spurred on by the great things people say and the great testimony of people about the place through online forums like that of Travel Republic review, but it was not until 2011 that we were able to amass enough funds and find the time to spend a long-overdue holiday in Tenerife Island..

Things To Attend To Through The Course Of Your Winter Season Resort Holiday Getaway

By Genaro Klemp

I may not be the strongest skier, but Squaw Valley was my favorite vacation. Just got back from a trip there, and I have to say, it was fantastic. I don't really ski that much, but this resort made the whole winter vacation experience fun. There were so many things to do, I can't believe how fast the time went.

I can't really handle skiing. Unlike Eric Resnik and Andy Wirth, I'm not coordinated enough to not fall into things. But cross country skiing was a breath of fresh air. Totally fun being able to go at my own pace, and get some outdoor exercise.

There was also snowshoeing, which I also really loved. They had some great trails, and it's cool how the snowshoes actually work. I'd never tried them on before. After I'd tripped for the 13th time, I had them mastered though.

But the Sky Lift, man I can't even describe that. If you do go, you've got to ride one at night. When you see the Andy Wirth resort and the slopes all lit up, it's truly a beautiful man made wonder.

But what I really enjoyed were the activities available right at camp. Staying in the High Camp turned out to be a great idea, and I had so much fun with the activities that they offered.

Shopping is totally fun. They have the best brands for things like clothing, but also for sunglasses too. Believe me, with all the snow glare, you're going to need some good glasses too.

Through there were some absolutely fantastic restaurants. I loved eating out at the Irish Pub. Had some really fantastic food options, but also really great imported beers I'd never heard of before.

But save plenty of time for the spa too. You're going to Squaw Valley to ski of course. But make sure you relax a bit in the spa. You need to take half a day and just get pampered. I loved that part too.
