Sunday is family day, isn’t it? Your children will not go to the school and you will not go to the office. All the family members will spend the holiday together. But to stay all day long inside the house will not give your family much fun. You need to take them out to enjoy the scenery and to breathe the fresh air.

Take them to enjoy the travel and outdoor fun of the countryside. They will love this idea for sure. If you want them to appreciate the nature while enjoying the holiday, you can plan a camping and hiking activity. You only need to prepare the equipment well that everybody can fully get pleasure from the short vacation. Since you cannot drive the car up the hill, you should ask your family members to take a walk. You need to ask them to wear hiking boots to avoid scars and bruises on their feet. If they have no boots yet, then you should buy them some pairs. Remember to find the lightweight boots that they can step on the terrain easily and comfortably!

gutenk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:16:16 +0000

Ciao! Thinking of going to Italy for a holiday? Belissimo, Congratulations! There are several types of hotels to choose from in Milan. From the larger fancy well established luxurious hotels to small boutique and budget hotels. Book well in advance, like any other holiday, if you don’t want to be disappointed as in busy periods most of the hotels are in demand due to the frequent national and international events taking place in the city, especially when the Milan fashion week is going on. However, Milan is not only about fashion and about shopping; there are plenty of sights you do not want to miss if you are seeking culture and history. The weather in Milan is good throughout the year, so you can visit it at any time. Even if you are not sure in which city of Italy you would like to go to than be assured that the accommodation in Italy has a wide range of choice. Nevertheless, if your choice has fallen on the beautiful city of Milan, here is a little overview of what to do, what to see and where to shop! The famous opera house, La Scala, open since 1778, has an interesting museum next door where you can view Verdi’s death mask. The famous architect Mengoni designed Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and is now a shopping avenue where you can browse its stylish cafes, restaurants and boutique shops. Santa Maria delle Grazie is a famous church and convent with Leonardo da Vinci’s mural of the Last Supper. A sight you definitely do not want to miss. If you like to visit churches and cathedrals the Milan is the place to be with Duomo being the biggest cathedral in Milan and found in Central Square. Of course, Shopping is Milan is paradise. Versace, Cartier and Prada, are just some of the names you will find in the upscale area of Quadrilatero d’Oro. If these are beyond your budget try Corso Buenos Aires with its high street prices or, for a unique and individual choice with a selection of second hand and handmade clothes shops, take a trip to Corso di Porta Ticinese. The Polytechnic and the Accedemia di Brera are colleges of fashion and have educated designers who are now world famous household names. Many creative fashion designers have exhibited their designs in this glamorous city, some of them causing outrage and transforming the face of fashion with their own individual style. Giorgio Armani is one of those designers. Born in Piacenza and is the king of Italian fashion. His career started in Milan working as a buyer, before starting up the label Giorgio Armani in 1975. Miuccia Prada took control of the family company in 1978, which focused on bags and leather accessories. Her bags became fashionable and in high demand. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana were born in the province of Palermo and Milan respectively and have to be the most famous couple in the Italian fashion world. They had their unveiling in Milan in 1985. Gianfranco Ferré was born in Milan in 1944 and gained a degree in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic. Versace was born in Reggio Calabria, moving to Milan in the 1970s to work in the fashion world. The Versace label came a few years later and since Gianni’s death in 1997 his brother and sister, Santo and Donatella, have successfully run the company. Your choice of accommodation in Milan will depend on your budget. If money is no problemo then the fashion streets of Via Montenapoleone, Via della Spiga and Corso Emmanuele II all have smart, plush and expensive Italian hotels. To be near to the attractions and shopping areas head to Centro Storico, a historical part of the city. Amendola Fiera is a district fashionable with business visitors and tourists as hotels here are less expensive but within easy reach of the city centre. Isola and Brera have the majority of typical Milano hotels, with prosperous Brera the closest to the galleries and sophisticated boutiques. With a canal running through it, Navigli-Ticinese is a lively part of the city with jazz clubs and restaurants lining the canal banks and the site of a weekly Saturday street market. Make sure you come to Milan with your Italian for beginners and credit cards and you will not go home disappointed!

To travel to Zuid-Amerika – the three faces of Zuid-Amerika

gutenk — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:09:11 +0000

There it is, plenty of mountains, beaches, adventures and history, all at an affordable price. What are you waiting for your next trip to South America?

As a matter of fact, if you are reading this, you have already decided to go there or, at least ,you are thinking about it. But, where to? I will show you my three favorite locations in South America, you choose by your own.

Peru: Macchu Picchu and The Incaâ€™s Road

Are you the kind of person interested in history and archeological marvels or you would rather go looking for adventure, and a little (or more) fun within it? Whatever option you chose, Peru is the right place for you to go.

Five hundred years ago, the Spaniards ransacked and destroyed most of the legacy of the Inca Civilization. They could not, however, reach the sacred city of Macchu Picchu. These almost intact ruins where found in the twentieth century, and access to the city is believed to have been reserved for the emperor (the Inca) and the nobility (Hiran Bingham, founder of the remains, held that priestesses were raised and prepared here, but this is refused by current scientists)

Macchu Picchu is also some kind of world spiritual centre, people of all credos consider it an incredible point of contact with the spirit. But reaching the Macchu Picchu without walking the Incaâ€™s Road, one of the most spectacular walking roads of the world, would be a sin. The Incas had built a road system only comparable to the one that the Ancient Romans built. The best kept part of the Incaâ€™s road is the one that goes from Aguas Calientes to Macchu Picchu. After paying a USD 50 rate (USD 25 for students with international card), you will be able to start three unforgettable days in which you will walk 60 miles of mountains, with incredible vegetation and landscape.

The contact with the local population is of the most beautiful aspects of travelling to Zuid-Amerika, and this is on the INCAA â ? particularly clear ¬ â ? ¢ s Road. YOU find several Å ? postasÃ¢ Ã¢ â ? ¬ â ? ¬? along the way (the old locations where Inca' s got messenger rest), and the aboriginals for carrying heavy luggage set (the Ã¢ â ? ¬ Å ? portadoresÃ¢ â ? ¬?) still they seem in an incredibly rhythm on those old knife-narrower, run, if your Å ? postaÃ¢ the Ã¢ â ? ¬ â ? ¬? they will have established already tent. It is however not only rests, at the end of the day wait: depending on the Ã¢ â ? ¬ â ? ¬ Å ? postaÃ¢? Quit, can receive you, but enjoyed the parties by the innumerable youngsters this visit to Machu Picchu from the all over the world.

The Incaâ€™s Road is usually preceded by a visit to Cusco, the capital of the Inca Empire, and one of the greatest urban monuments from Colonial times in Latin America.

Yet, if I were you, I would start from the Argentine city of Salta, visit Bolivia, the Titicaca Lake, and just then go to Cusco. It is a bit longer, yes, but you will never forget it.

Brazili?, Brazili? more

What else can be said of Brazil that you have not heard about? Brazil is not a place to be visited once, it is a place to fall in love with. Brazil is also one of the largest countries of the globe, so my first advice is to get a travel guide book, and also one of those promotional plane tickets including 5 destinations for a reduced price.

Brazilians are worldwide known for their eternal smile and happiness; they tend to have less prejudices regarding human relations. That may be the reason why you will find a party almost wherever you find a Brazilian. Although Rio is â€œtheâ€ place for nightclubs, discos, and related events, the entire coast of Brazil is a permanent party.

If you are planning a trip for two, let me recommend you Trindage, an almost unnoticed place between Rio and Sao Paulo. The road ends at Parati, a beautiful beach town known for its Colonial architecture. After Parati, you will have to walk 8 kms. (around 3 miles). Renting a car is an option too, but I prefer hitchhiking. Every night there are reggae parties on the beach, and the sky is so clean that you will see several falling stars. You can a take a bath in of the rivers of the zone, but please remember not using soap in order to keep the environment unpolluted.

For those who enjoy adventures, the Amazon is a huge challenge. If you want to visit the jungle but without taking big risks, it is always nice to visit the mythic city of Manaos, with its Opera and its glorious past. Manaos is today a tax-free zone, so you may also find very cheap electronic devices.

Buenos Aires: the most pretentious city in South America

I was not surprised when I read that a London magazine has chosen Buenos Aires as the â€˜sexiest city in the worldâ€™. With most of its population of European origins, and the frenzy proper of a big city, Buenos Aires has an incredible night life. Fancy nightclubs and pubs (accessible to the tourist, because of the low local currency, the Argentine Peso) are concurred by both young and mature people.

I will lie advise to of the most exclusive restaurants in Puerto Madero, eat what starts Argentinian flesh, and the evening in the Recoleta, the superbest area of Buenos Aires. You can you wonder if you do not remember in Milaan or Paris rather (because she Argentinian in Zuid-Amerika, she are angry on your!).

Cultural, Buenos Aires is the most active city in South America. Writers, directors, philosophers and artists of all kinds are usually in the city, its services or conferences.

If you like Theater, Corrientes Av. is some sort of local Broadway, all along which you will find uncountable spectacles. Of course, you cannot leave Buenos Aires without visiting the Colon Theatre, the most refined of its kind in South America.

During the day you can a visit San Telmo Square, site of bohemiens and artists, the house of the tango, the typical Argentinian dancing. YOU can always ? ? tangueriaâ â ? ? ? ? ? ?? (tango bar) and gets a number of lessons simply or enjoys the sensual movements the dancers.

For the weekend, to a football game a must is. If you want that the largest stadion in ArgentiniÃ goes, goes to the River Plate stadion. However, if your kinder something smaller, but much more intensely, enemy Boca juniors stadion, where 60,000 souls will tremble litterally reduced a chamber concrete. Football is not only a sport for the Argentinians, it a passie is. Although ArgentiniÃ strand boasted be, you can enjoy several in the buurt Buenos Aires.

The most crowded is Mar del Plata, but the most beautiful is perhaps Necochea. If you are thinking on going a little more to the south, you can visit Las Grutas, the most southern beach where you can take a bath (below that, it is freezing cold). As a matter of fact, this would be an excellent excuse for visiting the entire Patagonia, with the lakes, the mountains and the Pampa, but this is subject for another article on traveling to South America. . .

La Plata: An Overview Guide

gutenk — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 10:22:54 +0000

Driving some 56 kilometers south east of Buenos Aires you will find yourself in the planned city of La Plata, which is also the formerâ??s provincial capital. Designed by ace architect and designer Pedro Benoit, the city has been planned along the lines of an unqualified square split exactly in half into two diagonals, like a sandwich. The parks and plazas have all been planned with perfection, even the forest close to the city center.

In order to reach the city you can hop on to a bus from Buenos Aires. For accommodation we suggest you make your reservations beforehand. For good living the luxury hotels Four Seasons and the Hilton come strongly recommended. If you have a penchant for the out-of-the-ordinary then we suggest you try the Hilton, the hotelâ??s sole Argentine representative. Its funky chrome-plated smoked glass bi-level atrium lobby and thirty-something meter extensive reception desk resonates piano music with a mesmerizing effect. The five star luxury hotels Four Seasons Buenos Aires is yet another visual treat with its refurbished continental dÃ©cor and beaux arts finishing. Its lobby bar has been billed as the most â??exclusiveâ?? in town. Instead of taking a bus to various points in the city we recommend you do a bit of walking around the place. Youâ??ll be surprised to view people riding around on ponies to get around! Just walking around could get rather boring as the city looks like a replication of itself in parts. If you are in La Plata how can you miss the Natural Sciencesâ?? Museum (Museo de Ciencias Naturales) housing the largest mammal in South America? The skeletons of the five-tonned sloth called Megatherium and the Glyptodon, an ancient cousin of the armadillo can one feel over-awed. At the center of the city stands the Plaza Moreno, a huge square that holds the lovely cathedral and the city hall at two opposite ends. Walking along the two points is a delightful experience as you encounter ancient monuments, sculptures and trees offering pleasant glades. For lunch or dinner you should try out the cityâ??s oldest eating joint, the Cerveceria Modelo which came up in 1894. Situated at the corner of Calles 5 and 54, it is known for its extensive menu comprising salads, pastas and meats. The portions are large and generous and pretty reasonable to boot.

And if you really want to pamper your palate we suggest you sample the cream of crab topped with diced tomatoes, a signature dish of the rather upscale Casey Jonesâ?? Restaurant. Its fish sandwiches also cut a wide swathe among seasoned gourmands. Also, do try the Valrhona Molten chocolate cake which, almost melts in your mouth, even though it takes 20 minutes to prepare. For Asian food South American style, we suggest you try the lunch buffet at Hunan Star III on the Crain Highway. You wonâ??t come away disappointed for sure. In sum then, La Plata is a neat, well-organized city with plenty of delights and plenty to do.
