I must say that Cancun has proven to be the most spectacular beach destination vacations. Everything we wanted was right at hand, and the staff at the hotel couldn’t possibly have been any kinder. The hotel was just right for us, as well. We’re little older now, and while a trip to Cancun in our twenties would absolutely have involved tequila shots until daylight, this trip was a little more sensible. Not that we didn’t have as much fun, just a different, more mature and responsible fun this time around. Cancun is gorgeous, as if the entire country of Mexico. There was so much to do, and so many day trips and excursions, organized by the hotel activities staff, we couldn’t possibly have fit them all in. If you are looking for a great trip, try Cancun. You won’t be sorry, I can promise you that. Try starting with this website, www.cancunhotels.com. It’s a great source of info for your trip.

Edison Hotel: Once the Home for Edison Theatre
Saturday, February 19th, 2011While reading a Edison Hotel New York review I came to know that the once very famous Edison theatre was located in the Edison hotel. The theatre kept shutting down and reappearing for more than 5 decades. It was a big theater with more than 500 seats. When it closed down intermediately, it was converted to a ballroom for the Edison hotel. However, it got converted into a theatre once again until its owner died. After that it was once again and this time for good, converted into the ballroom. The ballroom is indeed a spectacular feature of the Edison which in itself in pretty spectacular. It is reminiscent of the New York City of old and has maintained most of the designs and architecture of the old. Though the hotel has obviously advanced technically with time, a conscious effort has been made to keep it connected with history and not altering the design and architecture much wh ile renovating and modernizing it.
Getting Going in Germany
Friday, February 18th, 2011I really don’t know about anyone else, but I really hate when I am traveling and have a big question mark in my head about how I am going to get around when I get there.

I recently learned in Germany that it is possible to hire a mini bus to get you back and forth from the airport. Being me, I decided to search “mini bus hire germany” on the web and found that there are a lot of places out there that can help with getting you from the airport to your hotel and from your hotel to your business meetings without having to hire a taxi to get where you want to go. Being a business owner, I know I don’t want to my travel dollars to all go to hiring a taxi driver to get me around and I am glad there are these options.
