Wonderfulgetaways.blogspot.com presents wonderful places to visit in New York city:
The Double Decker Bus
First introduced in the 1950s, double decker buses have long been a symbol of England. They have grown in popularity since then and are in widespread use around the world. They provide a convenient, fast and economical way to view the city's most important sites. The 2 floor bus with the open top provides easy viewing and picture taking. Tour guides provide the narration, full of information and personal experiences.
What else makes these tours unique you ask? They allow you to "hop off" at any of the bus stops and venture out on your own. You can explore the city or do some shopping, then you can "hop on" the next bus at any of the stops and continue the tour. Hence the term "Hop on, Hop off".
There are many tours and tour combos coupled with attractions like the Empire State Building, the wax museum Madame Tussauds and more. Another favorite for tourists and New Yorkers alike are the cruises around the New York City Harbor. They provide a jaw dropping view of the city skyline, the bridges and of course the Statue of Liberty.

The Netherlands is a densely populated and geographically low-lying country and is popularly known for its windmills, clogs, dikes (construction built along the edge of a body of water to prevent it from flooding onto adjacent lowlands), bicycles and social tolerance. The countryside with cows grazing in the fields next to canals and windmills is a reminiscent image of the harmony captured by many Dutch artists, while the cities balance traditional architecture with modern tendencies. Amsterdam for example has gabled houses, priceless paintings, multilingual people, coffee shops selling cannabis and prostitutes behind picture windows, all accepted with complete tolerence.

The Chick Trip to Vegas
So you're ditching the guys and heading to Vegas? Excellent move!
Q: I'm coming to Vegas with three of my girlfriends, and we're looking to meet some guys just for fun. Where can we go to dance and drink with some good-looking men?
A:Pure at Caesars Palace, Vanity at Hard Rock, Haze at Aria, JET at Mirage, LAX at Luxor, Tryst at Wynn Las Vegas and XS at Encore should be at the top of your list. If you're looking for a sophisticated, ultra-chic atmosphere, then Tao at Venetian is the place for you. And no girls' trip to Vegas is complete without a visit to "Chippendales" , "American Storm", "Men of X" or "Thunder from Down Under." Be sure to stop into the Flirt Lounge before and after the "Chippendales" show. The all-male wait staff, outfitted in the Chippendales fashion, has undergone special "chivalry training." After the show, a number of Chippendales' dancers stop by Flirt so you may be able to see your favorite performer up close.
Q: I just finalized my divorce, and a bunch of us are celebrating in Vegas. I want to have a good time, but not with a bunch of college kids. Where are the hot bars and clubs for a slightly more grown-up crowd?
A: First you gotta have a few drinks at Little Buddha at the Palms. For a little dancing, hit the House of Blues on Saturday for '70s night. You could also try Studio 54 at MGM Grand, which usually draws a broad crowd. If you want to unleash your inner bombshell while you're in Sin City, check out Stripper 101 at the V Theater, inside the Planet Hollywood hotel. For an intimate setting that's perfect for late night conversation, why not stop by Peppermill's Fireside Lounge? Love wine? Then you'll love all the sampling at Hostile Grape, a wine cellar/tasting room inside M Resort.If you truly want to escape the noise of the casino (and booming music of a nightclub), the lounge located on the first floor of THEhotel provide a quiet, yet equally sophisticated atmosphere.
Q: What are fun, girly things to do in Vegas?
A: You and the girlfriends will definitely have fun splurging at places like the Fashion Show Mall, Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood, the two-story Louis Vuitton store at Crytstals at CityCenter.or at Barneys New York at The Shoppes at the Palazzo. Craving something sweet? Then grab some cute and flavorful cupcakes with your girls at The Cupcakery at Monte Carol. Or, you can treat your hair to Happy Hour with a Hairtini at the Kim Vo Salon inside The Mirage. If you want to look super glam for the evening, visit the Swarovski crystal body art room at Qua Baths & Spa inside Caesars Palace. Shimmer all night with beautifully designed gems on your body.
Q: I'm coming to Vegas with my mom -- just us girls. We want to see a show, eat at fancy restaurants and go shopping. What do you suggest?
A: Ah, Vegas is all about pampering. Spend a day shopping at either the Fashion Show or Miracle Mile Shops. Town Square is a great way to bond with mom by shopping, catching a movie or even having a picnic at the center's own park. Forum Shops is another must on the shopping circuit. While you're there, you and Mom can enjoy a leisurely lunch at Spago -- it will give you a chance to refuel, people watch and plan your attack for the rest of your day. If mom's a Beatles fan, why not take her to see "LOVE" at Mirage? If you truly want to escape the hustle-and-bustle of the city, spend the day within the pleasant and peaceful atmosphere of MonteLago Village at Lake Las Vegas -- it's well worth the drive. Enjoy a light lunch or some pastries while admiring a view of the lake. After this vacation with Mom, she'll write you back into her will.

Amsterdam Travel
You’re nursing a drink in a canal café when you hear Bach. A man with a wild hairdo is playing organ and trumpet on a nutshell of a boat, while his feet do the steering. Only in Amsterdam…
Advertisement
… and back by popular demand. After a few years’ pout, this beautiful city has found its old self – quirky, creative and open-minded. Yet beneath the self-assured exterior, mental notes are everywhere. Not long ago the Netherlands swung towards the right, with crackdowns on immigration, religious freedom and red-light districts. Even in freewheeling Amsterdam, people were asking themselves: is too much tolerance a bad thing?
You can breathe easy: the soul-searching is over. The core values of Dutch society that we knew and loved have emerged intact. Newcomers who integrate are welcome; practising a faith is OK, as is the right to turn away from it. You like reefer madness? Fine, let’s hit a coffeeshop. A studded jockstrap for skate night? No problem, that’s crazy enough. Tolerance hasn’t gone out of fashion, it’s just had a makeover.
The city’s gorgeous looks haven’t faded either. The moments you spend ogling the old merchants’ villas, the Jordaan’s charming lanes or the lush Vondelpark are as magical now as in centuries past. The cafés are full, the museums are littered with Golden Age art and everyone still parties like there’s no tomorrow. Amsterdam is a delight to visit any time of year, but it’s hard to trump Queen’s Day, the world’s biggest party-cum–garage sale. In summer there’s an endless parade of festivals and events such as the Holland Festival, the Roots Music Festival and the outrageous Gay Pride parade, as well as delightful concerts on canal stages.
This city is too relaxed to stop being fun. To join in, all you need to pack is a few days’ attitude.

Travel Australia - Canberra

TRAVEL : Australian Insiders Guides
Canberra: 48-hour itinerary

Fog over Lake Burley Griffin, with the Carillon looming in the distance
In one weekend you can get a lot out of our nation's capital. Check out this two day itinerary for the highlights.
Get out
Start with something active. One of the greatest things about Canberra is the scenery; cycling or rowing on the lake are both great options. Mr Spokes hires out bicycles and has itineraries for different levels of riders. REAL Fun hires out bicycles, canoes and camping equipment if you need it. And ACT Boat Hire has kayaks, canoes and paddleboats.
The solitude and aesthetics of Canberra in the early morning are awesome, so rise and shine.
To venture further a-field go to Mt Stromlo, which has a world championship mountain bike park. Otherwise, head up to Majura Pines.
If bush walking is your cup of tea, then Canberra's got you covered; drive 10 minutes in any direction and you'll realise the success of Walter Burley Griffin's garden city ideals. There are marked trails snaking the parks throughout the city and surrounds. Pick up a map at the Canberra Visitors Centre.
If you need to be sure that coffee is proximate to your walk, head up to the Botanical gardens. The refreshing cool of the rainforest landscape is surprisingly close to the city centre.
Relax
After your exertions head over to Lyneham and sink into the eclectic chairs and couches at the Front Gallery and Café. It has a small gallery showcasing young, local artists, free wireless Internet and a mate's lounge-room kind of feel. Pass the time into the evening and watch the place fill up with people for a Saturday night gig or Friday night poetry slam.
High-brow brekkie
The next morning have breakfast in Kingston or Manuka, and then head over to Parkes. This is the area where you'll find the national institutions. Check out what exhibitions and events are on and choose the ones that suit your interests. If the High Court or Parliament is in session, drop in and see how it all works.
There are a host of excellent options, including Old and New Parliament House, the newly relocated National Portrait Gallery, the National Library, the National Archives and, of course, the National Gallery. If it is a hot day make sure you get to the Sculpture Garden before 2pm to walk through the fine mist of Fujiko Nakaya's Fog Sculpture (1977) and on to the cool, contemplative space of Fiona Hall's Fern Garden (1998).
Yum
After a day of nationalism and culture return to the city for dinner and drinks. Find restaurants around Garema Place or lining Bunda Street around the base of the newly redeveloped Canberra Centre.
Then it is beer o'clock at Wig and Pen; they have a ludicrously long list of amber liquid brewed in-house. King O'Malley's is up next for big pub atmosphere, unless you'd prefer the unassuming and eccentric The Phoenix where you'll find a mostly-local crowd.
If you're in the mood for classy cocktails, head to Hippo Lounge Bar, Muddle or Knightsbridge Penthouse.
Move
If you're around on a Sunday afternoon and you feel like getting sweaty with the locals, head down to Corroboree Park in Ainslie at 1pm for Sunday Dance Jams. Five bucks gets you an hour and a half of crazy fun dancing and a chance to bust out all your moves too daggy for Saturday nights.

Snow Mobiling in Ontario North

elcome to the Ontario Snowmobiling. Wintertime is a great time to explore Ontario because when the snow flies and the lakes freeze over you can venture to parts of the province that are normally only accessible by air and water. One of the best ways to get there is via snowmobile. Don your suit, helmet, goggles, gloves and trail pass and point your sled down one of the many groomed trails snaking their way across the landscape. Some trails are so wide that they're referred to as "snow highways". In fact Ontario has over 50,000 km (30,000 mi.) of interconnected, groomed snowmobile trails forming the largest recreational trail system in the world. Make a day of it gliding through majestic forests, across stake-marked frozen lakes and old logging roads to some of the most serene and scenic spots you'll ever see. View Aboriginal pictographs. Spot a deer or wolf in a clearing. Team up with some fellow riders and embark on a two-day snowmobile odyssey from Cochrane to Moosonee. Or enjoy the twinkling of city lights as you explore the Sudbury Trail Plan by night
Did you know that Ontario boasts 49,000 km (31,000 mi.) of interconnected groomed snowmobile trails forming the world's longest network of recreational trails? Looking for information form a selection of great winter destinations -
