| If advertising executives ever decided to create an honest slogan for Las Vegas, it might be "Nothing Succeeds Like Excess." This is definitely about Vegas, where the most wonderful places of the world are perfectly put together in just one place.

| Sian Ka'an is the true romantic ideal of nature unsullied by man: Robinson Crusoe beaches, so vast you get lost on them, lush jungles, only howler monkeys, the odd crocodile and exotic birds 4company. Time passes slowly in Sian Ka'an, so you effortlessly float on currents, observing the giant mangrove roots and brown pelicans dive-bombing 4fish.

| The great cathedral of Milan, the Duomo, is a very unique building. Although very intricately ornated, some don’t think it beautiful. It is said to have about 3000 statues on the exterior only. Getting inside it’s not that easy though – you have to go through a Carabinieri check. Read about this ridiculous experience.

| An accurate description of what the jungle is like. In Kahna reserve you can see a tiger up-close being on top of an elephant – the tiger can’t see you, so he doesn’t get in the mood for prey;o) At the same time elephant’s driver can command it to uproot an obstructive tree on the way. How still captivating remains the nature!

| Dude Ranch Trip I: "That Look" |

| After his horse kicked him off and ran away stepping on his crotch, the ranch wrangler sang soprano later on. Why is that? This is a hilarious experience at a ranch, describing all the things you don’t want to happen on such a vacation. Moreover, when initially you had to convince your husband, he will enjoy it.

| If historical and cultural beauties are what you value the most while travelling then this is an article for you. I was both impressed and fascinated by the beauty of the castels in Scotland. What is more astonishing is that every castle has its own fantastic story about endless love or ghosts that come to dinner every evening.

| Who were Pedro Heredia and La India Catalina? |
| Submitted by kiwi on
2006-12-01 02:57:50 (via www.caribenet.com) |
| I found this pretty interesting piece of history on the larger-than-life bronze statues of a semi-naked Indian maiden that stands on a traffic island near Chambacu, and an equally impressive statue of a conquistador that stands in the Plaza de los Coches in Cartagena, Columbia. I’m sure there must be much more of these sights over there.

| 30 years ago, most westerners confused Thailand with China or Taiwan. What is it that made Thailand famous and well-distinguished among other countries nowadays? You probably guessed… it’s the Thai food (having me as a great fan too). Here are some secrets about the Thai food and the way it’s served in its home country… I’m already hungry.
