Turkey too has warmer than average Mediterranean temperatures. The Caribbean is still warm and dry but at the end of its official high season with lower prices up for grabs.<br /> <br /> May - The east coast of America and the sunshine state of California are ideal at this time - prices are reasonable too.

Paris though is surprisingly quiet and of course romantic. Elsewhere, the Seychelles offer a tropical haven that's dry and warm.<br /> <br /> September - Best weather in Mauritius right now, and the Mediterranean is warm enough for sea dips, yet cooler and quieter for sightseeing in cultural rich capitals.<br /> <br /> October - Enjoy the fall in North America's New England - plenty of sunshine brings out the glorious autumnal landscape.

Most people do, but honeymoon vacations run the gamut from busy, outdoor adventures to relaxing, picturesque and quiet interludes. The truth is there are many reasons why one might want an unconventional vacation. For instance, if two avid travelers marry later in life, they may need to find something unique to both of them. If they're getting married in the summer, they may want to forego the stifling beach heat. If they're on a second honeymoon, they may want to choose a romantic cruise or plan a wedding/honeymoon all in one. Here are some of the latest trends in honeymoon vacation packages.<br /> <br /> Not every couple craves lounging on the beach all day for their honeymoon vacation package. Active adventurers may prefer surf lessons, mountain climbs, four wheeling and skydiving.<br /> <br /> Adventurous honeymoons can include a nature trek at Tintswalo Safari Lodge in South Africa (www.tintswalo.com), a bike tour of the Mediterranean island of Gozo (www.breakaway-adventures.com) or a helicopter tour of the glaciers on Vancouver Island (www.nimmobay.com). Visit www.voyagetrek.com to find tour operators that can accommodate your travel adventures, whether it is horseback riding or zip-lining.<br /> <br /> Many couples are looking to stay in a "home away from home" on their honeymoon vacations, which is why the Private Villa romantic vacation idea is picking up steam. Couples can choose from a country cottage to a beach rental to a luxurious mansion. While these exclusive rentals often cost a pretty penny, many people feel it is totally worth it to be left alone for their whole honeymoon, while still receiving the best treatment from personal butlers, chefs, housekeepers and masseuses. Popular romantic destinations include Amanyara in Turks and Caicos (www.amanresorts.com), Cotton Bay Villas in the Bahamas (www.discovercottonbay.com) and the Ritz-Carlton in Bali (www.ritzcarlton.com). For a more comprehensive listing of 1,600 villas, visit www.wimco.com.<br /> <br /> Many couples are through with planning all the intricate details of the wedding and everything else, so they're looking for something hassle-free for their honeymoon vacations. Thus, the all inclusive romantic resort was born. Reputable name-brands like Sandals (www.sandals.com), Couples (www.couples.com) and Club Med (www.clubmed.us) can whisk newlyweds away to a number of exotic destinations from Jamaica and Antigua to the Bahamas and Mexico. All food, premium alcoholic beverages, activities and accommodations are covered in one price, which makes saving and planning for a romantic honeymoon a cinch. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Your <a target='_blank' href="http://i-knowhowonline.com/category/travel/honeymoon-vacation/">honeymoon vacation</a> will create memories that will last forever, so it's important that you plan it carefully.

One of the ways that you can ensure a great honeymoon is by having a range of honeymoon lingerie packed into your suitcase that will make your husband go wild with desire for his new wife.<br /> <br /> Regardless of your figure, size or shape, you can find lovely honeymoon lingerie. From baby doll night dresses, to corsets and suspender belts, there is something that will flatter your shape. In the underpants alone there is a variety of styles including: g-string, full brief, Brazilian, boy leg and French knickers - ooh la la.<br /> <br /> Rather than sticking to a classic bra and knickers combination, you should mix things up will a range of different types of underwear to keep him guessing about what you will come up with next. When selecting a bra, you should choose under wire styles which are more supportive and lift things into place to give a more flattering and buxom line.<br /> <br /> Before buying your honeymoon lingerie, you should think on what your husband finds sexy. Some men are into feminine, lacy styles in pale, pastel colors. Yet other men will be turned on by more daring colors such as black and red. Many men find a combination of the two styles very attractive. To get an idea of his tastes talk to him discreetly prior to the wedding, but don't give yourself away.<br /> <br /> As well as choosing underwear that you think will please your husband, you also need to choose underwear that you feel great in. There is no point wearing something that you feel fat, tacky, or self-conscious in. Confidence is the sexiest thing of all, so you want to ensure that you will feel relaxed wearing it.<br /> <br /> Sometimes some styles of underwear can seem a little complicated. If you are planning to wear a corset with a number of hooks and eyes or a suspender belt with clips, then you should really have a little practice of putting them on first. There is nothing more frustrating than struggling with clips while your husband is waiting impatiently in the bedroom for you.<br /> <br /> Getting the right fitting underwear is essential. For this reason you should buy your honeymoon lingerie from a store that has trained fitters. A bra that does not fit you properly will probably be uncomfortable or not look quite right. A fitting specialist will measure your back and cup size and get you the most flattering styles that show off your best assets properly.<br /> <br /> Without doubt, your honeymoon will be one of the most memorable times of your life. You can ensure that it goes sensationally by spicing things up with a whole pile of new honeymoon lingerie to drive your husband wild with lust for you. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>For your wedding night, why do you and your hubby to be not go online and pick out a few of the best looking <a target='_blank' href="http://www.5000styles.com/Honeymoon_Lingerie_s/194.htm&Click=13576">honeymoon lingerie</a>?

You want something truly memorable and spectacular, but you may not be flush with money. So, what can you do to get the most for what you spend? Indeed, how can you get a fabulous honeymoon at the lowest cost possible?<br /> <br /> First Tip : Set your budget. Identify your limits. Know exactly how much time and money you can spend. Sort out your preferences and make the hard choices. Do not worry about the final bill, you have it covered in your budget.<br /> <br /> Tip Two: Capitalize on your new status. You are on your celebration trip , and when vendors hear they are often excited about making your adventure even better. It is amazing how often couples get special perks, upgrades, or enhancements just because they are on their honeymoon. So, flaunt it. Let everybody know. Let them share your excitement. It pays off.<br /> <br /> Idea Three: Get the best deals by using the right professional travel agent. Take advantage of their special knowledge. They can help you strategize a great wedding trip based on your desires and budget.<br /> <br /> Fourth Suggestion : Consider staying in your own secluded fully furnished hideaway. Time share companies offer rentals by the week at rates far below hotels. These getaways offer all the comforts of home plus loads of recreational, entertainment, and community activities too. Take time for romantic intimacy or join the community party life.<br /> <br /> Fifth Idea : Many tours, hotels, spas, and cruises offer package deals that include travel, accommodations, food, drink, and entertainment. These programs are designed for groups and for saving money. You have nothing to worry about, because you have someone else taking charge of all the details. Think of attending a world class theater as part of your package. All you have to do is enjoy.<br /> <br /> Suggestion Six: Timing is everything. When it comes to travel, resorts, and vacation destinations; timing is a big consideration. You can often save fifty to seventy-five percent just by scheduling your trip a few days or weeks outside peak demand seasons. There are many factors affecting the seasonality of a destination, and these may affect your decision as well. For example, a sky lodge in Colorado may be in high demand during January, but have very little demand in July. A tropical paradise may have high demand from snowbirds during the Winter, but their weather is pretty constant year around.<br /> <br /> Arrange together. Avoid conflict by being insensitive to your partner. I remember a groom how planned out this extravagant wedding trip to a hunting lodge in Montana. The only problem was that he did not consider the feelings and desires of his bride. As you might expect, the trip was not all he had dreamed either.<br /> <br /> If you arrange to fly, book in advance. If you plan to take a cruise, book in advance. If you plan to take a tour, book in advance. If you plan to take a train, book in advance. You will save money. You will reduce stress. You will enjoy the whole process much more.<br /> <br /> Check all the little details too. Often the success or failure of a wedding trip is in the details. For example, if you are flying to Orlando and staying in a hotel; does the hotel have a shuttle to transport you? Are there restaurants within walking distance of your hotel? Exactly what is covered and what is not. What are the hidden expenses? - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>If you are thinking about a wedding, <a target='_blank' href="http://www.weddinghow.com">Renewing Wedding Vows</a>, or looking for samples of <a target='_blank' href="http://www.weddinghow.com">Christian Wedding Vows</a> click on one of these links to go to Wedding How. com.

This is part of the reason that the groom's wedding toast is more important than many might initially find it to be. The groom must remember to thank a wide-array of people ranging from his guest to, of course, his wife. The wedding speech process can be all the more daunting for those who are afraid of public speaking. Not to worry, however, as there are some easy and simple ways that any groom can write a great groom's wedding toast. With a little planning and thought your groom's wedding speech can make you look like a funny and original guy who also has a sense of humor!<br /> <br /> On most occasions, the groom's toast is one that largely focuses on thanking family and friends for their contributions and time. Of course, any groom worth his salt will want to thank his wife as well. Usually the groom's speech comes after the father of the bride's speech. Hopefully, the father of bride has said some nice or even great things about you, which should make the transition to your speech a bit easier.<br /> <br /> Above all else, remember to thank people for being at your wedding. If you do this, you truly have won much of the battle. Your groom's speech needs to focus on thanking all of those people who helped make your wedding possible. It's a good idea to write down who those people are as it will help you write your speech. Once you have written down who helped make your wedding possible look and see if there are any funny or heart-warming short stories about those individuals and their contribution to your wedding. Find those stories and you have a big chunk of your speech. Now, just keep in mind that a good groom's speech should probably not exceed five minutes. Why only five minutes? Because there will be many other speeches at your wedding as well.<br /> <br /> One of the key goals you should have in writing your speech is to not leave anyone out. Weddings can be political affairs and forgetting to thank a key person can come back to haunt you.<br /> <br /> The Parents. It should go without saying that thanking the parents is critical. Thanking the parents has an extra level of importance if they have paid for the wedding. Regardless, thanking them for their support and for allowing you into their family is an absolute must. Fake sincerity if necessary.<br /> <br /> The Guests. Of course, you should thank your guest. In theory, your guests have spent a little bit of money on your wedding gifts, so there is so reason to be thankful towards them. Briefly thank them for spending their time with you on your wedding day, and make special note of any guests who have traveled a long distance to be at your wedding.<br /> <br /> The Bride. Of course, you should thank your bride and tell her how much you love her. Everyone expects it and people will feel horrible if you forget.<br /> <br /> The Bride. If you forget to thank your bride, you are in a lot of trouble. Obviously thanking your bride should be a "no-brainer." Feel free to express your love of her and tell her how beautiful she is on her wedding day. Make sure that you look into her eyes when addressing her, and end the toast with her.<br /> <br /> General Tips:<br /> <br /> -Don't act like someone you are not.<br /> <br /> -Keep a cheat sheet on hand and don't be afraid to look at it.<br /> <br /> -Make a cheat sheet and keep in on hand.<br /> <br /> -Write out your speech and practice reading it out loud, over and over. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Milton Kelly offers etiquette suggestions on topics including weddings, proper manners and <a target='_blank' href="http://www.groomstand.com">groomsmen gifts. </a> </div><br /> </div>judesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14855785523899272443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574619006086104364.post-2121869332713562402009-11-10T07:54:00.000-08:002009-11-10T08:03:04.130-08:00Useful Tips for What Grooms Should Pack for Their Honeymoon<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Milton Kenny</div><br /><div class='uawarticle'>Your honeymoon is no ordinary trip. Its in your best interest that you don't see it that way either. Trust us when we tell you that your honeymoon is most definitely a big, big deal to your bride. Just like her wedding, she has been fanaticizing about her honeymoon for years. And just like her wedding, her honeymoon must be perfect as well. So with this in mind, you can pretty much forget your plan to toss a few pair of socks, underwear, two shirts and a pair of jeans in a bag and head off your exotic honeymoon location. Odds are you need advice on how to pack. There is a lot of attention given to brides as to what they should take on their honeymoon, but us guys are often completely overlooked.<br /> <br /> This list should serve as a good beginning point to help grooms think through what it is that they will need to bring with them for their honeymoon. As you begin to organize your trip, you will likely think of all sorts of small items that you may need to bring. That is a good thing.<br /> <br /> Skip the Rush: This is a very important tip. Any seasoned traveler will tell you that the last second "travel rush" is a simply beastly thing. Trips of any kind can be stressful, and the last second rush only makes things worse. With this in mind, you should strongly consider packing well ahead of time. Of course, this means that you will need to think about what you will be doing on your honeymoon as well. If you are going hiking or scuba diving, for example, you will need very specific gear. So take a good long look at your wardrobe at least a month in advance so that you will be certain that you are not missing anything vital. In terms of packing, a smart groom would have all the packing out of the way at least a week ahead of the big trip.<br /> <br /> Women Love Gentlemen: Somewhere in your suitcase should be at least a couple of nice outfits that will make you look presentable. Since this is your honeymoon, a fancy dinner or two and maybe a show are likely bets. This means that you will need a couple of outfits that make you look more like a man and less like a savage.<br /> <br /> Beware the Crease: Creases can make any man look like a slob. Keep the crease in mind when you are packing. Try and pack clothing that will not crease easily. Consider having a couple of your outfits dry cleaned before your trip. A dry-cleaned outfit stands a better chance of arriving relatively wrinkle free!<br /> <br /> It Is Sexy Time: Almost every woman knows that honeymoons mean sexy lingerie, but that doesn't mean that you should have a few tricks up your sleeve either. A couple of pair of sexy underwear won't hurt your honeymoon in the least.<br /> <br /> Pack To Avoid The Pharmacy: Contemplate your pharmacy needs well in advance, and make sure you have condoms and lubricants handy. Running from place to place in an unfamiliar city looking for such sensitive items could prove stressful.<br /> <br /> Always Have a Back-Up Plan: An experienced traveler will tell you that all sorts of things can go wrong. In order to help safeguard you and your trip from disaster, think through what you pack in your carry on bag. If your suitcases get lost, a well-packed carry on can help you make it until you can replace your clothes or vital toiletries. <br /> <br /> Use Your Hotel: Think through what your hotel has available for free. Any respectable hotel will have soap, shampoo and the like. This, of course, means that you don't have to pack every single toiletry item that you might need. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Milton Kenny is a travel-obsessed writer who loves writing about exotic locations.

They offer Eco-friendly jewelry designed out of conflict free diamonds and recycled, refined metals. Conflict free Diamonds are the ones, which have passed the Kimberley Process where it is assured that the source of the diamonds is not the same as the blood diamonds.<br /> <br /> Some awesome jewelers for instance are registered with StopBloodDiamonds.org Jewelers. Angola, Congo Sierra Leone and the Democratic Republic of Congo are related to terrible Human Rights crimes in relation to the Diamond trade therefore they are banned. The atrocities come at the hands of well-armed insurgents financed by corrupt governments, who commit horrible crimes against the civilians all for blood diamonds.<br /> <br /> Money laundering is another major activity in these blood diamond mines for the terrorist groups similar to Al-Qaeda. We bring you clean diamonds that have no part of these atrocities against humanity. You have already chosen to protect the earth by making choices like walking to the library, using appliances, eating organically grown foods, They offer you another opportunity to carry on your crusade and wear precious metals that have been recycled.<br /> <br /> Basically the old and broken jewelry is molten and refined to gain the base-metal which is then redesigned into to new jewelry for you. This means the earth is not striped of its upper fertile soil, five tons of soil is not mined to remove a few ounces of precious metal, gallons of water is not contaminated to make you shine. Every industry should do their share to make the difference in with their print.<br /> <br /> This means that there is enough refined metals already mined that we do not need to exploit the land anymore!<br /> <br /> Search out cooperative jewelers, and take an environmentally conscious decision of wearing only Eco-friendly jewelry. You may also want to look into the Harmony brand of 100% recycled metals. Their process is much cleaner than mining. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Danforth Diamonds now has proven that living an ecological-conscious life is possible in all aspects of an individuals life.

No matter how you are in love with your partner, there are times when you just rub each other the wrong way. And that's perfectly normal. However, if you already are able to nip those relationship problems in the bud, it would make things much easier for your relationship.<br /> <br /> The best thing to do is to first discuss the things that are the most common sources of disputes (this includes sex, money and kids) before these issue start to crop up. Because you have already talked about these, you already know how these issues should be addressed, which is difficult to think about when you are in the middle of a fight.<br /> <br /> Now, let's discuss a few things you can do to prevent relationship problems from getting worse:<br /> <br /> Communication is key. Talk is definitely not cheap when it comes to strengthening relationships. When partners talk about their thoughts and share what they feel with their partner, it opens up avenues by which you can forge deeper ties. Sometimes, because of the everyday business of life, partners fail to communicate. Schedule appointments by which you can talk with each other. And when you are communicating, set some rules for you to follow. Don't generalize - avoid using the words "you always" or "you never".<br /> <br /> Make time to make love. Intimacy between partners is further established when you don't ignore the physical aspect of your relationship. Be conscious of what your partner wants and needs and do your best to fulfill these.<br /> <br /> Agree about Finances. Work out a budget together - include savings. Discuss how monthly bills are to be settled. Give each other "space" - there should be a certain amount that each one can spend at his or her discretion. Be honest with each other about your debt and income. Agree about short-term and long-term goals for the family.<br /> <br /> Organize household chores. Responsibilities around the house should be threshed out so that everybody knows what is expected of them when it comes to chores. The division should be fair and equitable, so that there should be no feelings of resentment cropping up. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Read more on <a target='_blank' href="http://hubpages.com/hub/Relationship-Problems">relationship problems</a> and discover <a target='_blank' href="http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Become-Runway-Model">how to become runway model</a> </div><br /> </div>judesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14855785523899272443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574619006086104364.post-18222576488505212272009-11-06T12:38:00.000-08:002009-11-07T15:35:19.875-08:00Tips for a Flawless Family Road Journey<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Gertie Magwood</div><br /><div class='uawarticle'>Getting the family together for a road trip can be quite an exercise. And between heavy traffic, exhausted or uneasy children and driver fatigue, the process of "getting there" can try anyone's diligence.<br /> <br /> But some patient preparation - for everything from fuel costs to rest stops - will make the experience enjoyable rather than frustrating.<br /> <br /> AAA offers the following advice for families planning their future road journey.<br /> <br /> Before You Go<br /> <br /> * Take some time to plan your trip from beginning to end. Plan your trip online using www.aaamaps.com for point to point driving directions. If you don't have access to the Internet, contact your nearest local AAA travel office for a custom-made triptik.<br /> <br /> * Calculate your gas costs. If you are looking to pinch a penny on fuel, visit www.fuelcostcalculator.com. This web site helps motorists calculate the cost of fuel for their journey based on the unique vehicle's make, model and year.<br /> <br /> * Give your car a checkup. Have your vehicle checked by a qualified auto technician. To find a AAA Approved Auto Repair facility in your area, visit www.aaa.com.<br /> <br /> * Do not forget, timing is everything. As you plan your trip, make time margins for traffic jams, road building and other factors that may cut down your required speed.<br /> <br /> On the Road<br /> <br /> * Start fresh. Rather than leaving early in the morning after staying up late backpacking clothes and loading your vehicle, get enough of rest the night before your journey. Driving drowsy is highly hazardous and results in many crashes and deaths every year.<br /> <br /> * Be safe. Make sure that all passengers are secured properly with safety belts and child safety seats as needed. Choose the proper child safety seats for your children and make sure the seats are properly installed. Up to 90 percent of child safety seats are wrongly set up.<br /> <br /> * Keep your family connected. If you are traveling with children, they'll need something to keep them busy. Be sure to get games and books to help them pass the time. Many vehicles now feature on-board DVD players that can help keep children entertained for hours.<br /> <br /> * Stop sporadically to stretch your legs. Take a break every two hours or every 100 miles, specially if you are traveling with children and pets. To deflect driver fatigue, make arrangements to substitute with other drivers. - NU - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Journey the world from the ease of your computer.

From extreme and adventure sports to exotic wildlife and fine wines, New Zealand is sure to give you a vacation that will live long and clear in your memory. Before you plan your itinerary to travel to New Zealand, read on to discover some of the top travel spots.<br /> <br /> Tourists who travel to New Zealand typically arrive via Auckland's international airport. While in Auckland take the opportunity to visit one of the most biologically rich marine parks in the world. On a cruise of Auckland's Hauraki Gulf you will get the chance to see whales and dolphins and other local marine life. Taking a climbing tour of the Auckland Harbor Bridge is a great way to catch a bird's eye view of the city and an exhilarating experience for those brave enough to try it.<br /> <br /> Think of the bridge climb as an appetizer for the adrenaline rush that is Queenstown. If you are an adventure lover, then this is your Mecca. Queenstown is in the business of serious fun. Here you can try bungee jumping, skiing, snowboarding, jet boating and many other activities not for the weak of stomach.<br /> <br /> After speeding about Queenstown, it is time to take it down a notch or two with a tour of the Queenstown wine trail. Many of the country's wines are produced in the vineyards outside of Queenstown and there are tours that will take you to sample the best drops.<br /> <br /> From Queenstown you can travel through the beautiful scenery of Otago to New Zealand's highest mountain, Mt. Cook. Taking a helicopter ride over the mountains is a once in a lifetime experience and a chance to appreciate the magnificent beauty of New Zealand. <br /> <br /> Maoris are the indigenous New Zealanders and they have retained their rich culture and heritage in the face of colonization by the British. While in New Zealand do not miss the opportunity to get acquainted with its indigenous culture. <br /> <br /> Ko Tane is a living Maori village located inside the Willowbank Nature Reserver outside of Christchurch. This is the perfect place to see how Maori lived before the Europeans arrived. Here you can see many Maori ceremonies, dance and traditions come to life before your eyes.<br /> <br /> Rotarua, on the north island, is a hot spot for geothermic activity. At Wai Ora natural hot springs you can experience the healing mud baths that have been invigorating visitors to the area for around a thousand years.<br /> <br /> New Zealand has so much to offer a visitor: fun, action, great food and wine, natural beauty and rich culture all rolled into an accessible and cost effective location. Travel to New Zealand and you will arrive home with lifelong memories. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Looking to find the best deal on <a target='_blank' href='http://www.firstnewzealandtrip.com/'>New Zealand holidays</a>, then visit www.yoursite.com to find the best advice when you <a target='_blank' href='http://www.firstnewzealandtrip.com/category/travel-to-new-zealand-2/'>travel to New Zealand</a>. </div><br /> </div>judesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14855785523899272443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574619006086104364.post-55874714571205669892009-10-26T07:16:00.000-07:002009-10-26T07:48:50.064-07:00A Step By Step Guide To Planning The Perfect Honeymoon<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Ashley Bridge</div><br /><div class='uawarticle'>Honeymoons are more often than not seen as secondary to the planning of the wedding itself, when, as far as memories go, they are just as significant as your day in church. It's a time that you'll remember for the rest of your life, so give careful consideration to honeymoon ideas and honeymoon locations.<br /> <br /> Initially determine what your goals are for the trip and what you absolutely can't do without. Where do you want to go? Do you want to relax or be active? What is most important to you? Beautiful weather, sightseeing, adventure, cost, etc. <br /> <br /> Trips to exclusive islands or resorts are traditionally popular, and for good reason. They mean that you can enjoy quality time together whilst relaxing from the busy timetable of the previous few months and losing yourselves in stunning surroundings.<br /> <br /> Cruises are another option; they offer an equally peaceful, relaxing time whilst at the same time allowing you to take in a range of destinations. If you would prefer a more action-packed honeymoon, give consideration to an adventure travel trip or a mountain resort.<br /> <br /> Regarding honeymoon locations, these are some of the most popular: Australia, Bali, Belize, Caribbean, Chile, Costa Rica, Egypt, French Polynesia, Greece, Hawaii, Italy, Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles, Thailand.<br /> <br /> Whichever type of location and honeymoon you decide on, try to make reservations at least 6 months in advance so that you'll have the pick of the rooms, and can start planning in general. See if there is a special honeymoon package available to enhance your time away; romantic extras like the honeymoon suite, champagne and bouquets of flowers will make your time away more memorable still.<br /> <br /> Research and book restaurant seats, tickets, tours, and various other activities that require advance reservations, particularly so if you're traveling during peak season. Don't go overboard with planning though and make sure there is plenty of free time, especially during the first few days, in which you can just enjoy each others company without any other distractions.<br /> <br /> Your overall objective should be to make your honeymoon different to an ordinary vacation. Along with your normal vacation items, try taking some fun extras with you, such as lingerie, bubble bath, candles and romantic music. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>If you liked this, try : <a target='_blank' href='http://1to101.com/Honeymoons'>Honeymoon Locations</a> </div><br /> </div>judesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14855785523899272443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574619006086104364.post-26520040320831026962009-10-18T07:55:00.000-07:002009-10-18T11:27:09.401-07:00Travel to Tanzania - the Paradise of East Africa<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Andrew Muigai</div><br /><div class='uawarticle'>With an amazingly large number of animal parks, white sand beaches, a beguiling island and very hospitable people, Tanzania is definitely a top destination for those that seek to have an unforgettable travel experience. The Solid standing mountains surrounded by dense tropical forests, bird havens and ancient sites are all the more a compelling reason to take up your vacation in this expansive East African country.<br /> <br /> Covering an area of over fourteen thousand square kilometers, the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania Compares only with Kenya's Maasai Mara and South Africa's Kruger National Park. Rightly so, the Serengeti National Park is considered one of the best national parks in Africa with its plains being home to gazelles, zebras, cheetahs, lions, and the wildebeest whose annual migration between November and May is a spectacle to behold.<br /> <br /> The Wildebeest Migration was declared one of the Seven Wonders of the World and for a good reason. The annual event is the only one of its kind worldwide and therefore as precious as life. A massive migration of thousands of African animals all at once with the sole intention of mating, territorial conquest and the pursuit of grazing land is a phenomenal attraction. Its action- packed and with predators stalking prey in ample supply from the lakes and the plains, the weak, the old and the young do not stand a chance.<br /> <br /> Another famous attraction is the Ngorongoro Conservation Area which rises high above the plains of the Serengeti. Ngorongoro spans from Lake Natron in the Northeast (the breeding ground for East Africa's flamingoes) to Lake Enaysi in the South and Lake Manyara in the East. The still active volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai meaning Mountain of God, and whose last major eruption was in 1983 rests on the Conservation area. A special place 610m deep, 20km in diameter and covering an area of 311sq km is at the focal point of the park. They call it the Ngorongoro Crater. It is a shelter to almost all the plains mammals except for the Impala, Topi and the Giraffe and has been said to have the densest population of predators in Africa. The endangered Black Rhino might be a good reason for you to take a hike in this area. The rich birdlife includes flamingoes which are attracted by the soda content in Lake Magadi on the crater floor.<br /> <br /> Among Tanzania's many wonderful Parks is the Selous Game Reserve that covers an area bigger than the entire of Switzerland and takes close to a sixth of Tanzania's Surface Area. This is no wonder given that this Game Reserve is not only one of the biggest in the world but also is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a high concentration of elephants, lions and hundreds and hundreds of other wild animals.<br /> <br /> Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Ruaha, Katavi and Gombi are among other National Parks in Tanzania. The Country has got also a number of Marine Parks found at Kilwa Reserve, Latham Island Reserve, Rufigi Delta and also Tanga Coral Gardens. There are also a number of proposed National Parks in Tanzania that include Saadani and Kizulo Plateau. You definitely are faced with many amazing options during your trip in Tanzania.<br /> <br /> Africa's highest mountain hails from Tanzania and the whole world knows that Mount Kilimanjaro isn't your daily casual walk to the store. Lots of tourists have travelled large distances in a quest to conquer this giant mountain situated near Moshi. Kilimanjaro's snowy peak will enchant you to reach the top and once you do, be ready for a bird's eye view like no other over magnificent Africa. If you are to undertake in this ardous task, be sure to carry thermal clothing and whatever else required because, damn...they weren't joking when they said "the higher you go the cooler it becomes".<br /> <br /> Also found in the Ngorongoro Area is the historical Olduvai Gorge which spreads across fifty Kilometers and is one hundred metres deep. The Gorge is the site where three species of hominid fossils were discovered with the age of the oldest fossil being estimated as being over three million years old. The hominid fossils were discovered by Dr. Louis and Mary Leakey after being exposed off the volcanic soil following rock in this area being eroded by a river. In this place too stands a museum that displays other ancient findings including those of a giant giraffe.<br /> <br /> The world's longest and second deepest fresh-water lake is Lake Tanganyika which is also found in Tanzania. This Lake is the main gateway to the Mahale Mountains and Gombe Stream National Parks and it's at the heart of dhow fishing boats- building industry. When you are in Tanzania, don't miss a chance to enjoy the awe-inspiring feeling that comes when you fix your eyes on an expansive body of water like Lake Tanganyika.<br /> <br /> Lastly, for the little space assigned this article, you have to visit Zanzibar. It is probably one of Africa's most famous and amazing Islands. It's one of the tropical islands in the Indian Ocean known for its striking beaches and laid-back island culture. Palm trees gently sway in the breeze pointing you to traditional dhow boats that tempt you to explore this mysteriously charming paradise. Zanzibar was built on its fishing and spice trade and this remains the case to date. The strong Arabic influence is not only reflected in its people but in the island architecture particularly in historically significant Stone Town. Zanzibar is the kind of place that doesn't need much talking about because it simply speaks for itself.<br /> <br /> Many have visited this amazing country and taken back home with them the beauty that awaits you in this land. By all means, make Tanzania your next destination. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Visit the author's website africapoint.com to get useful information regarding <a target='_blank' href="http://africapoint.com/tours1/tanzania.htm">Tanzania Vacations</a> including Tanzania Hotels and Flights. <a target='_blank' href="http://www.africapoint.com">Africapoint</a> is an online travel agency that also organizes tours safaris in Tanzania, Kenya, and many other African countries. </div><br /> </div>judesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14855785523899272443noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4574619006086104364.post-56176799358608731772009-10-14T08:56:00.000-07:002009-10-14T13:09:35.734-07:00A Honeymoon On A Cruise Ship<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Amanda Gamdana</div><br /><div class='uawarticle'>Most couples would agree that getting married is just one step further into the relationship.

It's important that you learn how to compare hotels for a family vacation before booking your vacation.<br /> <br /> The internet has many different review sites you can use to learn about accommodations for the family, but remember, today's reviews are sometimes paid for, so you'll want to read carefully. It's important to go through the reviews but especially the bad ones. They can tell you a lot about the hotel you're considering. <br /> <br /> Besides checking out the good and the bad reviews, make sure you check out several different travel sites, booking sites, and hotel review sites. You'll want to see the number of good reviews against the number of bad reviews, then start with the bad reviews first. This will help you to see where possible problems might arrive with the hotel. <br /> <br /> By reading the worst reviews you can be aware of any problems you and your family may have at this accommodation. In other words, if you read a review about bad service, and you only find one review about it, there's a good chance this person wasn't going to be happy no matter what. Or, perhaps an employee had a bad day.<br /> <br /> But if you read three to 10 reviews out of 50 reviews for bad services, you might want to take this into consideration. The same can be said for other services that the hotel provides.<br /> <br /> Reviews are great way to judge the accommodations for your family vacation. Just remember, most of them are going to be good no matter what site you go to, try to read those that are not so good to get a good idea of what could go wrong.<br /> <br /> Also, you may want to talk to friends and family, there's a good chance that will be able to give you the honest details about a hotel. If you don't have family or friends who know the hotel, start networking. Some one in your networking sphere probably knows somebody who went to this area and possibly stayed at the accommodation.<br /> <br /> Even if they didn't stay at the accommodation, if they were in the area, they probably heard news about this particular hotel, motel, or condo unit. In this way, you can find out a little bit of the nitty-gritty from people who are honestly there. <br /> <br /> Memories are made with family vacations, and you'll always want the best for your family. In fact, you probably already have a few memories from the beginning of your family, and believe it or not, these family vacation memories will hold to well into your senior years. It's important to understand that the accommodations for the hotel you stay in for your family vacation can make the family vacation, especially for children. So take your time, read the good, the bad, and the ugly, and make it one of the best family vacation you've ever been on. - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Learn more about how you can <a target='_blank' href="http://searchyourhotel.com/">compare hotels</a> for your next travel vacation.

Through this, you'll also have the perfect wedding invite that you have always hankered after.<br /> <br /> buying formal wedding invites does not regularly work for people. They are dear and buying the cheap ones won't always satisfy you due to low quality. Instead, you can purchase blank marriage invitations and design them yourself. Designing them does not take that much skill and it's not expensive. All that you need is a printer and the blank invite cards.<br /> <br /> Of course , whose wedding is it anyway?<br /> <br /> The most vital thing for the recipient is that they've been invited, their only concern is what to wear, so don't worry.<br /> <br /> Just remember, before purchasing the blank wedding invitations, you need to consider a couple of things. The printer you use must be compatible with the type of invitation card you'll use. Different types of printers work fine on different types of surfaces. For example, the common laser jet printer can print well on thin papers and can print on glossy surfaces. The Ink jet printer on the other hand, can print on rough surfaces.<br /> <br /> If the outer layer of your blank marriage invites is rough or you have caricatures on them, you should go for the Ink jet printer. But remember the laser jet can render better results and is more cost-effective nowadays. So you have got to ensure the kind of printer that you have or will purchase can work with and around the invitation cards you am considering.<br /> <br /> It's recommended to have a plan about how you want your wedding invitations to seem like and it's simple to come up with ideas but do not spend hours considering, just get it done.<br /> <br /> You can visit local or web stores and select the blank marriage invites that suit you. If you start looking for them at an early time, you'll have the advantage of being able to experiment. Do not forget to purchase a few extra cards because there will probably be some mistakes and issues when you first start printing. By doing some test runs, you can get the last look that you need out of the cards.<br /> <br /> You can design them on your home computer, computer and so on. Don't hesitate to get viewpoints from your relatives and buddies too.<br /> <br /> Good luck and have a great wedding day! - 30413</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><div class='uawlinks'>Jamie has been an author articles online for almost 4 years now.
