			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft alignnone size-medium wp-image-430" style="10px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/st-augustine-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>St. Augustine, Florida is the oldest continuously occupied European-established city in the United States.  During the course of its history, it has been through the hands of the Spanish, British, and more recently the Americans.  At present, it’s not only a city rich in background, but it is also one of the best places to go to if you’re searching for a good time.  </p>
<p>The gentle coastline of the northern part of Florida, where St. Augustine is located, features white sand and alluring sunsets.  Enjoy just about anything you can think of doing at the beach while being blanketed with the ambiance of America’s oldest city.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/fountain.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-431" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/fountain.jpg" alt="" width="220" height="160" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/fountain-of-youth.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-432" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/fountain-of-youth-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="220" height="160" /></a></p>
<p>If ever you have wondered where exactly the fountain of youth is, then you should look no further.  It’s only fitting to find it in the oldest city in the country (maybe that’s their secret).  Nevertheless, there definitely is an air of mystique which surrounds The Fountain of Youth National Archeological Park.  Many travelers of the ancient world have searched in vain for the legendary spring which grants those who drink its waters everlasting vitality.  Among these famous explorers is Ponce de Leon, who searched exhaustively for it.  Now, the place is advertised and is open to anyone who loves a good experience.  You may not get to live forever if you go there, but rest assured you’ll feel much younger by just enjoying yourself during your visit.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/trolley.jpg"><img class="alignright alignnone size-medium wp-image-433" style="10px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/trolley-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="230" /></a></p>
<p>For those laid back travelers who want to get a closer look at the city without that much physical activity, then you can ride the Old Town Trolley and become transfixed with attractions and sights which date back hundreds of years.  The rides also have a competent conductor, there to take and show you around as they feed your curious minds with fun facts about good old St. Augustine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A truly enriching</strong> travel involves delving into a foreign place’s history and local culture.

<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Washington-State/FAS_BLG" target="_blank"><strong>Pioneer Square, Seattle.</strong></a> This old neighborhood, founded in 1852, is today Seattle’s major historic site. A simple stroll on Pioneer Square’s sidewalks will take you on a time travel with its antique street lamps and Victorian structures. You’ll have an array of interesting art galleries to choose from where you can indulge in Seattle’s prided local art.</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/old-stone-house.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-423" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/old-stone-house-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="260" height="210" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/georgetown.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-426" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/georgetown-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="141" height="209" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Washington/FAS_BLG" target="_blank"><strong>Georgetown, Washington DC.</strong></a> Before there was even the District of Columbia, there already was Georgetown. This neighborhood in Washington D.C. was founded in 1751. Today, it cradles centuries-old structures. Like in most old neighborhoods, take a walk in Georgetown and you’ll get a good glimpse of old America. The well-preserved buildings and countless galleries will introduce you to Washington D.C.’s history and culture.</p>

<p><a href="http://lds02.com/San-Francisco/FAS_BLG" target="_blank"><strong>Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco.</strong></a> Haight-Ashbury is actually not the oldest neighborhood in San Francisco, but it is one of the most interesting districts in the city so it is a must visit.

You’ll find Victorian houses, walls creatively painted by graffiti artists, and shops that define the city’s free-spirited character.</p>
<p>Not all old neighborhoods are as well-preserved as the ones mentioned above. There are those that have been transformed into business districts crammed with skyscrapers.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Visit <a href="http://lds02.com/Vancouver/FAS_BLG" target="_blank">Vancouver Canada</a></strong> and you’ll get the best of both worlds. Hit the streets of this global city and delve into its booming metropolitan culture. Explore Vancouver a little more and you’ll find yourself in awe of its natural beauty. Vancouver’s vibrant urbanity is surrounded by soothing natural sceneries. Whether you’re on vacation to party or you aim to have a relaxing getaway, Vancouver is the perfect place to visit.</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/granville-island.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-412" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/granville-island-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="195" height="157" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/gas-town.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-413" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/gas-town-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="236" height="158" /></a></p>
<p><strong>E</strong><strong>xhilarating City</strong><br />
Art lovers will marvel at Vancouver’s architecture, quaint antique artifacts, and extensive art collections in various galleries. Walk around <strong>Gastown</strong>, Vancouver’s oldest neighborhood, and you’ll find authentic antiques and beautiful old buildings. Head over to <strong>Granville Island</strong> and you’ll find plenty of art galleries and shops. If you’re more into the performing arts, the city has an <strong>Entertainment District</strong> that embraces numerous theaters which serve home to local talents.</p>
<p>As mentioned, Vancouver also suits travelers who wish spend their vacation partying at night. Ironically, this city used to have the title “No Fun City” because bars and restaurants used to have early closing hours. Today, Vancouver is far from being a “No Fun City” as adjustments were made to make the city’s nightlife more vibrant! <strong>Granville Street</strong>, part of the city’s Entertainment District, is a stretch of bars and clubs where you can drink the night away! But Vancouver nightlife is not all about the booze; there are theaters that stand proof of the city’s value for the arts.</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/stanley-park.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-414" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/stanley-park-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="164" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/garden.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-415" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/garden-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="218" height="165" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Peaceful Nature</strong><br />
As a global city, Vancouver has plenty of high rises, but this does not mean that there is no longer space for some serenity. Actually, Vancouver is home to the world’s vastest urban park! <strong>Stanley Park</strong> welcomes travelers to a wide range of activities with nature. Rent a bike to go around this park, or you can give your legs some exercise and hike the park’s trails. This park cradles rainforests and give a good view of the seascape.</p>
<p>Another peaceful spot amidst the busy Vancouver city is the <strong>Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Garden</strong>. Let the lush green grass and Chinese structures soothe your restless spirit.</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/vancouver-ski.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-416" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/vancouver-ski-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="252" height="190" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/biking.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-417" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/biking.jpg" alt="" width="160" height="191" /></a></p>
<p><strong>A Challenge to Get Active</strong><br />
Surrounding Vancouver and the rest of Canada are beautiful mountain ranges. Come winter, these mountains draw extreme sports enthusiasts because of the challenging slopes. Skiers love Canada as soon as snow sets in. When the ice melts during summer, the mountains are still a big draw for tourists who want to bike and climb.</p>
<p>Vancouver is a city that suits all interests. Whether you’re the type who cannot live without the urban air, or you are the nature-loving tourist, you’ll find Vancouver most amusing.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The city of lights, the city of love, the city of pleasure and amusement, the epicenter of taste and culture, call it what you want and you will still run out of things to say about how wonderful Paris is.  Situated on the river Seine in the north of France, Paris is one of the most well known places in world.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/louvre1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-406" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/louvre1-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Most people believe that love is a once in a lifetime occurrence, obviously these people haven’t been to Paris.  The city provides more than just attractions or places of interest.  When you step onto the city streets, you will surely be blanketed by a distinct ambiance of romance not found anywhere else.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/paris_cite_sciences_col.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-410" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/paris_cite_sciences_col-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sometimes, just sitting idly in one of the hundreds of cafes is enough to be overwhelmed by the city’s grandeur.  But, if by any chance you manage to shake off the feeling of paralyzing amazement, then you can start visiting the cities most important places, those which makes Paris what it is and what it has been.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/louvre-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-407" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/louvre-2-300x233.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="233" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Making your way to these historic venues should be considered as sights and activities in itself.  You’ll be treated to an inspiring journey the minute you exit your hotel room.  Paris offers more than 750 hotels ranging from the affordable (Hôtel le Parisien Saint-Lazare) to the ritzy (Maurice Belle Etoile Suite).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While walking is considered to be the most scenic way to see Paris there are rail systems, called the Metro, and cabs to help you rest your feet while on your way to more far off places.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Museums are a dime a dozen in Paris, but the crème de la crème is surely the Musee du Louvre.  Here you can take guided tours, or be brave enough to venture around its seemingly endless halls by yourself, and see firsthand the most seminal pieces of art (by the thousands) ever produced by Western culture.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Of course, there’s also one of the Seven Wonders of the World, a little thing called the Eiffel Tower.  Engineered by Gustave Eiffel, it is the tallest building in all of Paris.  200,000,000 people have visited it since 1889, and you owe to yourself to be number 200,000,001.  Seeing Paris from its peak should be on anyone’s bucket list.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No trip to a foreign country would be complete without tasting the local delicacy.  Fortunately, French cuisine just happens to provide some of the best dishes.  Tickle your palette while eating at the many local restaurants scattered throughout the city.  If ever you get full to the brim with escargot and baguettes, you can also try restaurants specializing in African, American, Belgian, British &amp; Irish, Central European, Chinese, East European, French, German &amp; Austrian, Greek, Indian, Indonesian, Italian, and Japanese to name few.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arc.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-404" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arc-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are many more things to do and see in Paris such as Notre Dame, Centre Pompidou, Cite de Sciences at de l’Industrie, and the Arc de Triomphe.  But whatever these are, no description would ever give them justice, for they should be experienced.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some people look forward to traveling by plane. But it you’re on an overnight flight, you are bound to get bored at some point. Unless you’re traveling first class, you have to sleep in a seat you can hardly recline with a cramped leg room. But flying shouldn’t be that bad. With a few preparations, you can get a little comfort and some entertainment even as a coach passenger. Here are a few tips that might help:</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/neckpillow.gif"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-395" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/neckpillow.gif" alt="" width="128" height="110" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/ipod.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-396" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/ipod-249x300.jpg" alt="" width="90" height="110" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/laptop.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-397" style="5px;" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/laptop-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="154" height="117" /></a></p>
<p>1.    <strong>Neck pillow. </strong>You will be surprised how much comfort this little cushion can give you. It’s difficult to sleep with the limited space airplane seats have. But sleep and rest is much easier with this pillow.</p>
<p>2.    <a href="http://www.hollywood-opportunities.com" target="_blank"><strong>Music.</strong> </a>You can never go wrong with music, thus it is a must. It can create good vibes and soothe the mind. So don’t forget to stuff your iPod with as much as you can!</p>
<p>3.    <strong>Laptop.</strong> Yes, laptops can be used in the plane, but not during takeoff and landing. Before you board the plane, download movies and games. These are great ways to pass the time. There’s so much you can do when you have your laptop with you, even without internet connection. If you’re lucky, you might board an aircraft with available WiFi connection. But cannot be expected from most airlines.</p>
<p style="center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/psp.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-398" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/psp-300x180.jpg" alt="" width="162" height="98" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/book.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-399" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/book-300x186.jpg" alt="" width="156" height="97" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/snacks.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-400" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/snacks-300x238.jpg" alt="" width="126" height="101" /></a></p>
<p>4.    <strong>Books.</strong> Not everyone is a reader. But if you are, bring a few books with you and you’ll be fine even with an overnight flight. For those who are not much fans of reading text, bring comic books, magazines or even crossword puzzles. Simply bring whatever can keep you interested for a couple of hours and the flight won’t seem that long.</p>
<p>5.    <strong>Notebook and pen.</strong> For some people, traveling gives them time to think and contemplate on things. If you’re an artist, a blank notebook and a pen are enough to keep your mind from being bored.</p>
<p>6.    <strong>Snacks.</strong> Airplane food is far from the best meal you can have. If one serving is not enough to fill you up, better be ready and pack some snacks and chips for your flight!</p>
<p>7.    <strong>Video Games.</strong> Not everyone is a fan of video games. But you have to admit, if you’ve tried it, you can get caught up in it. Even a simple Rubik’s cube can be so absorbing. Video games can even be more engrossing. This is a great way to pass the time.</p>
<p>There are plenty of ways to keep you from getting bored in a plane. Just know what interests you and bring it with you in the plane.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your idea of a great vacation includes beautiful beaches complemented by an interesting culture, you can never go wrong with <a href="http://www.freeairfaresearch.com/main" target="_blank"><strong>Florida</strong></a>. Each city blends a unique metropolitan atmosphere with its pristine shores. Here are some of the great cities you can choose to visit in Florida, depending on your taste and interests.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/miami.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-386" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="miami" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/miami-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="324" height="249" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Miami-Beach/HO_BLG614" target="_blank"><strong>Miami</strong></a> has to be one of the most popular cities in Florida. As you have probably seen in TV and film, Miami has that sexy vibe in it. If you’re the type who wants to spend the whole night drinking and dancing, then party away in Miami. The neighboring Miami Beach city, which as the name implies is the area with stretches of beaches, is also famous for having topless sunbathers and hot skateboarders. This is also known for being the favorite spot of celebrities, so if you’re lucky, you just might spot a hot Hollywood star or the surfboard riding the waves!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/daytona-speedway.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-388" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="daytona-speedway" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/daytona-speedway-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="335" height="256" /></a></p>
<p>There’s also the popular <a href="http://lds02.com/Daytona/HO_BLG515" target="_blank"><strong>Daytona Beach city</strong></a>. This one draws plenty of tourists not only because of the shores, but also because of its unique love for the motorsports culture. Obviously, this is home to Daytona International Speedway which holds the popular Daytona 500 and plenty of other international racing events. So if you’re the lover of speed, there’s no other place to spend your vacation in than in the “birthplace of speed.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/disney-world.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-390" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="disney-world" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/disney-world-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="323" height="242" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Orlando</strong>, on the other hand, is the haven for both beach lovers and theme park goers. Orlando cradles the world’s biggest Disney theme park,<strong><a href="http://lds02.com/Disney-World/HO_BLG517" target="_blank"> Disneyworld Orlando</a></strong>. This is more than a park; Disneyworld is a resort complex where families and friends can enjoy four theme parks, two water parks and 23 hotels! If you’ve made the most out of Disneyworld, which I doubt you can, you might want to explore Universal Orlando which is also a resort complex that brings movies to life! Two theme parks, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, turn imagination into reality.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/st-augustine.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-392" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="st-augustine" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/st-augustine-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Jacksonville/HO_BLG576" target="_blank"><strong>St. Augustine</strong></a> prides itself not only with beautiful beaches but also with its rich history. Make sure to have a camera ready because being the nation’s oldest city, St. Augustine will astound you with gorgeous architecture reflective of its colonial past. After lying on the beach, take some time to explore the corners of this marvelous city. Make sure to visit the museums and historical sites. Like any other old city, St. Augustine is full of ghost stories. So if you’re the type who wishes to spend the vacation exploring the paranormal, have a ghost tour at St. Augustine!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/fort-lauderdale.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-393" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="fort-lauderdale" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/fort-lauderdale-300x198.jpg" alt="" width="327" height="216" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Fort-Lauderdale/HO_BLG528" target="_blank"><strong>Fort Lauderdale</strong></a> does not fall behind in being an interesting draw for travelers. This is considered to be the Venice of America due to its intricate canal system. But instead of riding a gondola, you can ride a water taxi when visiting this city. Fort Lauderdale also has a thriving art scene that particularly boasts local skill in crafting glass.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/caladesi-white-sand1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-391" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="caladesi-white-sand1" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/caladesi-white-sand1-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="227" /></a></p>
<p>But if you’re really after the beaches, head to <a href="http://lds02.com/St-Petersburg/HO_BLG578" target="_blank"><strong>St. Petersburg</strong></a> or <a href="http://lds02.com/St-Petersburg/HO_BLG578" target="_blank"><strong>Clearwater</strong></a> where the blissfully virgin Caladesi beach is accessible. This earned the title America’s Best Beach for 2008. The sands are pure white and the waters are definitely clear. Clear your head of the hassles of urban life and relax on this island uninterrupted by the bustling noise of city streets. There are no commercial establishments that will come between you and Mother Nature.</p>
<p>Florida truly offers diversity. It has so much to offer any kind of tourist. Simply take young pick among these cities in Florida! And if you’re lucky to have the time, why not travel to each city! If money is your only problem, there are plenty of ways to lighten your budget.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Costumes and floats</strong> paint the streets of <a href="http://lds02.com/New-Orleans/HO_BLG532" target="_blank"><strong>New Orleans</strong></a> the day before Ash Wednesday. Mardi Gras, also known as Fat Tuesday, is a religious festival celebrated in numerous places around the world, but no other place celebrates it as lively and as colorful as New Orleans does. Louisiana takes pride in this city’s jovial and unique celebration of the Mardi Gras!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-parade-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-373" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-parade-2" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-parade-2-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="227" height="152" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-costumes.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-374" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-costumes" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-costumes-300x245.jpg" alt="" width="185" height="152" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Parades. </strong>This is one of the event’s main attractions. From glittering floats to spirited marching bands, the parades will astound the entire family. Floats sponsored by krewes (Mardi Gras clubs) tend to be more extravagant. Common among riders of these floats is the tradition of tossing throws to the crowd. These throws can vary from coins to stuffed toys!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/french-quater.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-375" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="french-quater" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/french-quater-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="151" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-376" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="202" height="152" /></a></p>
<p><strong>French Quarter. </strong>Being the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans, the French Quarter is the city’s center of art and cultural activity. This is where the parades used to pass by, but as the event became more and more popular, the narrow streets of this old neighborhood could no longer hold thousands of participants. Nonetheless, this is still a very active spot in the city during Mardi Gras. You are free to walk around with alcohol and you’ll get to see a lot of musicians. Food and drinks are overflowing so get ready to indulge!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-ball.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-377" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-ball" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-ball-288x300.jpg" alt="" width="207" height="216" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-378" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-2" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-2-197x300.jpg" alt="" width="142" height="217" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Balls. </strong>This is another unique practice. Complete with a king and queen, you can only attend this ball with an invitation. If you’ve ever imagined being in a dreamy ball, cross your fingers that you’ll get an invite. And if you’re lucky to get one, make sure to have the appropriate costume as everyone else!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-world.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-379" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-world" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-world-224x300.jpg" alt="" width="138" height="185" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-world-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-380" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="mardi-gras-world-2" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-world-2-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="248" height="187" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/mardi-gras-world-2.jpg"></a></p>
<p><strong>Exhibitions. </strong>Though a religious observance, Mardi Gras is more like an artistic celebration. The colorful floats, wonderful costumes, and jovial music all add up to a unique festive experience. When you’re visiting New Orleans for the Mardi Gras, make sure to see Mardi Gras: It&#8217;s Carnival Time in <strong><a href="http://lds02.com/Louisiana/HO_BLG600" target="_blank">Louisiana</a></strong> – an exhibition of this beautiful event’s history. See costumes, invitations and floats used decades and even more than a century ago! Mardi Gras World, on the other hand, features the intricate art of creating floats.</p>
<p>The best time to visit any foreign place is during a festival. This is the time when locals are most welcoming of tourists. So schedule your visit to New Orleans in time for Mardi Gras! This festival will surely please your senses; from your eyes to your palate.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Illinois/HO_BLG602" target="_blank"><strong>Chicago</strong></a> is a beautiful vibrant city, yet it is great for those who simply want to relax. Don’t let its metropolitan façade fool you. This city may have towering buildings but its streets are not as busy as it seems.

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/hancock.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-366" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="hancock" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/hancock-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="180" height="267" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/sears-tower.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-367" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="sears-tower" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/sears-tower-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="201" height="268" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you’re tired of your routine life in the city, consider embarking on an adventure with nature. Get away from the noise and pollution of your fast-paced metropolitan home and take some time to slow down and commune with Mother Earth. Here are a few places in and around America that should interest you into stuffing your backpacks and hitting the road into the wild!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/nevada_wilderness_mountains.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-355" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="nevada_wilderness_mountains" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/nevada_wilderness_mountains-300x198.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="186" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/nevada.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-364" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="nevada" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/nevada-222x300.jpg" alt="" width="137" height="186" /></a></p>
<p>1.    <a href="http://lds02.com/Nevada/HO_BLG601" target="_blank"><strong>Nevada.</strong></a> Travelers from all over the world flock to this state usually to get a taste of the <a href="http://lds02.com/Las-Vegas/HO_BLG535" target="_blank"><strong>Las Vegas</strong></a> lifestyle. But behind this very bright city, Nevada has even more to offer backpackers and nature lovers. Famous nature expeditions from Nevada are <a href="http://lds02.com/Lake-Tahoe/HO_BLG551" target="_blank"><strong>Lake Tahoe</strong></a> and the <a href="http://lds02.com/Grand-Canyon/HO_BLG569" target="_blank"><strong>Grand Canyon</strong></a>. Aside from these popular and almost commercialized sites, you can visit the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. Within this preserve you’ll find majestic mountain ranges and lush forests.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/washington.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="washington" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/washington-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="186" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/washington-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-357" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="washington-2" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/washington-2.jpg" alt="" width="183" height="186" /></a></p>
<p>2.    <a href="http://lds02.com/Washington-State/HO_BLG615" target="_blank"><strong>Washington</strong></a>. Campers and hikers will fall in love with Washington State’s Cascade Range. Explore Mount Rainier National Park, which includes the Range’s highest volcano, and you will find glaciers, meadows, forests, waterfalls, and valleys. If you want to meet nature’s critters, Washington’s Colville National Forest should be your pick. The Forest cradles bears, cougars and wolves.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arizona-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-358" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="arizona-2" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arizona-2-233x300.jpg" alt="" width="152" height="193" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arizona.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-359" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="arizona" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/arizona-300x198.jpg" alt="" width="292" height="193" /></a></p>
<p>3.    <a href="http://lds02.com/Arizona/HO_BLG599" target="_blank"><strong>Arizona.</strong></a> Like Nevada, people usually go to Arizona for the Grand Canyon. But there’s more to explore in this beautiful state. <strong><a href="http://lds02.com/Arizona/HO_BLG599" target="_blank">Phoenix</a></strong> alone is surrounded by unique natural settings. There’s the Camelback Mountain which is not only incredibly shaped like the humps of a camel, but is also home to snakes and lizards! From the town of Page, you can take a drive and view the indescribable Horseshoe Bend. Arizona may be dry and hot, but this does not mean you won’t find life in it. Challenge yourself with Arizona’s wilderness.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/bald_eagle-canadian_rockies.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-360" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="bald_eagle-canadian_rockies" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/bald_eagle-canadian_rockies-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="276" height="207" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/canadian-rockies.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-361" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="canadian-rockies" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/canadian-rockies-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="155" height="208" /></a></p>
<p>4.   <a href="http://lds02.com/British-Columbia/HO_BLG609" target="_blank"><strong>Canada</strong></a>. North America prides itself with beautiful landscapes. The Canadian Rockies will simply take your breath away. The mountain ranges are tipped with snow and surrounded by an expanse of lush forests.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/alaska-bear.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-362" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="alaska-bear" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/alaska-bear-300x202.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="190" /></a><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/alaska.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-363" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 5px;" title="alaska" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/alaska-229x300.jpg" alt="" width="146" height="189" /></a></p>
<p>5.    <a href="http://lds02.com/Alaska-Airlines/HO_BLG339" target="_blank"><strong>Alaska.</strong></a> This state is another source of pride for North America. There are countless wildlife and natural preserves. Home to various bears, Alaska draws plenty of curios tourists. The outdoors open every traveler to a plethora of possible activities that will certainly get you closer to nature.</p>
<p>These are only few of the places the Americas offer to travelers who crave a good challenge with nature. Before going to these places, it is advisable that you undergo physical training so that you won’t tire easily. Exhaustion while trekking the mountains is no joke, and neither is meeting wildlife. Be sure to respect the creatures you meet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While driving a snazzy-looking Mazda from a <a href="http://www.perfectcarhire.com" target="_blank">car rental ireland</a> service I stumbled upon a hidden paradise. It was a place they call Kerry (South West of Ireland methinks), the fine sand and rolling waves made me think of something - nothing feels more relaxing than feeling sand on your feet and between your toes. Believe it or not, sand does not only come in gold or white. You will be surprised at how different beaches paint the earth with varying colors of sand. Here are the best places to get different colors of sands:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/virgin-islands-golden-sand.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-349" title="42-15450548" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/virgin-islands-golden-sand.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="348" /></a></p>
<p>1.    <strong>Golden Sand</strong>. This is probably the most common color. The <a href="http://lds02.com/St-Thomas/HO_BLG581" target="_blank"><strong>Virgin Islands</strong></a> of the Caribbean have a lot of beautiful beaches. Travel to the Virgin Islands and you’ll find golden shores gleaming under the tropical heat!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/caladesi-white-sand.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-350" title="caladesi-white-sand" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/caladesi-white-sand-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>2.    <strong>White Sand</strong>. People usually seek this color of sand. There are plenty of white sand beaches around the world. Caladesi beach in <a href="http://lds02.com/Clearwater/HO_BLG579" target="_blank"><strong>Clearwater Florida</strong></a> is deemed America’s Best Beach for 2008 not only because of the clear calm waters, but also because of the pure white sand!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/pink-sands-bahamas.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-351" title="pink-sands-bahamas" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/pink-sands-bahamas-300x183.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="183" /></a></p>
<p>3.    <strong>Pink Sand</strong>. The <a href="http://lds02.com/The-Carribean/HO_BLG583" target="_blank"><strong>Caribbean</strong></a> Sea cradles not only idyllic white sand beaches but also pink sands. Go to Harbour Island in the Bahamas where you can rest on soft fine pink sands!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/blacksand.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-352" title="blacksand" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/blacksand-300x196.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="196" /></a></p>
<p>4.    <strong>Black Sand</strong>. Hawaii offers a lot white sand beaches, but what you probably don’t expect to see are black shores. Active volcanic activity in the <a href="http://lds02.com/Hawaii/HO_BLG570" target="_blank"><strong>Big Island of Hawaii</strong></a> created these black sands! You probably won’t find black grains of sand comforting, but it is still worth visiting. You don’t always get to see black shores.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/green-sands.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-353" title="green-sands" src="http://www.socialtravellersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/green-sands-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>5.    <strong>Green Sand</strong>. <a href="http://lds02.com/Hawaii/HO_BLG570" target="_blank"><strong>Hawaii</strong></a> offers even more colorful sands. Aside from black and white beaches, Puu Mahana of the Big Island has green sands due to olivine crystals. The shores are simply breathtaking.</p>
<p>So when you’re planning your next vacation, do not lock your desires to white sand beaches. White shores are idyllic but there are plenty of other colors to choose from! Ever imagined lying on pink sand? <a href="http://lds02.com/The-Bahamas/HO_BLG580" target="_blank"><strong>Cruise the Bahamas and you can put that imagination to reality!</strong></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/The-Carribean/HO_BLG583" target="_blank"><strong>Fly for free to the Virgin Islands and see golden shores!</strong></a></p>
<p><a href="http://lds02.com/Clearwater/HO_BLG579" target="_blank"><strong>Feast your eyes to the soothing white sands of Clearwater, Florida. Your flight is on us.</strong></a></p>
