On July 15, Schlitterbahn Beach Resort will open its beachfront hotel and year-round indoor sheraton midtown atlanta waterpark next to the popular South Padre Island water park. With the hotel and mini-water park, Schlitterbahn expects to extend the busy season for both the resort and the island as whole. The sprawling water park, which attracts up to 5,000 on the hottest days, is already the island's largest employer. The hotel and indoor park with its 200 employees should almost double the company's island workforce.
When Schlitterbahn owner Jeff Henry learned the former Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort was up for sale, the opportunity for creating a year-round, beach-side water resort with retractable roof and walls was irresistible.
balconies removed, and then the 221 rooms were enlarged. New Braunfels-based Schlitterbahn brought down its in-house carpenters to craft the room's bureaus, mirror frames, bed frames and wall decor. The goal was quality, with no particle board or plywood being used. Yet old-fashioned skills have paired with high technology. Entry to guest rooms, elevators and activities is accomplished with a wristband that has embedded RFID (Radio sheraton midtown atlanta Frequency Identification) chip technology and is worn by every guest.
The carpenters' handiwork is visible throughout the wood-accented hotel, beginning at the pecan front desk in the reception area and continuing to cedar posts and black walnut accents. The children's roofed play area features paneling of loblolly pine rescued from Bastrop and shows char marks from last year's wildfire. sheraton midtown atlanta Giant, shaped tree trunks anchor the Grand Carousel space nearby a three-story adventure area for kids. The transporting of some park elements, like the frog and dragon, to South Padre Island was filmed for the television show, "Shipping Wars."
Convertible roofs (like those used at ball stadiums) have been installed over some sections of the mini-park to provide water-based family fun year round. The blue-tiled Torrent Tantrum river, sheraton midtown atlanta complete sheraton midtown atlanta with machine-generated waves, meanders through the new property. Three-story water slides and two sand beaches complement sheraton midtown atlanta the children's playground, which together form part of the 'indoor' area. The island created by the new river offers little kids a fish-shaped slide to crawl through and a goofy pirate boat to climb over. Adults will discover the Watering Hole, a swim-up bar shaded by a generous palapa. The hotel addition is connected to the main water park by a marine-themed sheraton midtown atlanta tunnel.

I just returned from the Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica . I found the hotel to be a good value for the money you pay. The hotel is a little older, but most of the rooms have been updated. The bathrooms were on the small side, but they were clean and stocked with shampoo and lotion.

According to Appalachian Ghostwalks : It was built in the 1800s, and before it was a restaurant, it

According to Appalachian Ghostwalks : It was built in the 1800s, and before it was a restaurant, st pete beach hotels it was the Sumner County Jail. If you re in the restaurant st pete beach hotels late at night, upstairs you can hear voices, knocking on walls, and slamming doors. Also, you can hear someone walking on the stairs. If you re downstairs, you can hear the toilets flush and the water faucet will turn off and on.
Lots and lots of ghost stories about this spot. Here s one, again from Appalachian Ghostwalks : First, in room 471, in the summer of 1999, a businessman from out of town staying in this room. He was walking around the pool (next to this room) for most of the evening and into the night hours. When the pool closed, a maintenance man told him that he would have to leave. This is the last anyone would see of this gentleman because, the next day when he was supposed to check out and did not, a maid went to the room to check things out. Upon walking into the room, she found the man had committed suicide with a 357. He had also left a $3.57 tip on the table. Many have claimed to see a shadow walking around the pool at night in the windows of the rooms around the pool. Next, in the early 1980s, a boy scout group had rented the entire 7th floor of the building. This is hard to accurately describe, since no one who was working there at the time cares to elaborate on any details from this event, but all that was gathered is that the boy scout leader had apparently gone crazy and killed some of the scouts before being caught. When the building was closed for the winter one year (Gatlinburg is a tourist town which is really only full for the summer and autumn months), an employee was making st pete beach hotels rounds through the building and stopped on the 7th floor and heard running and screams. He ran to check for intruders only to find nothing. No rooms were rented in the tower that evening.
According to VenereTravel blog , this haunted house sits on the site of an actual tragedy: A young 7-year old girl fell to her death from the balcony of a hotel adjacent to the original structure and drowned in a nearby creek.  Supposedly, st pete beach hotels many of the locals have seen her ghost crying by the creek where she drowned and is pointing up to the site where she fell to her death.  This is reported to happen every year two weeks prior to the anniversary of her death.  Supposedly, she has been heard crying out for her mother.
Crewmembers in Pigeon Forge are just beginning to notice paranormal happenings.  But keep this in mind, on the night of April 14th, 1912, going into the early morning of April 15th, 1500 people lost their lives, they were not prepared to part this world, they struggled to survive, but alas they were tragically taken.  Experts believe when a soul is taken from life in a violent, unexpected fashion, some of the life force energy will remain, in the place where they were taken, or sometimes the life force will attach itself to an object…..like an artifact.
According st pete beach hotels to Paranormal Spectrum : Apparitions and voices have been reported at this site of an old hotel popular in the 1920s. It is now gone. An old cemetery dates back to the 1790s when the Bluff s were used as a lookout point for the Continental Army to watch for the Indians. Many were slaughtered in their sleep, and it is said that their spirits still remain.

Glad to see that Glad to see that it s still in operation! Glad too to read the other comments here,

Worst resort in Worst resort in Jamaica, I been to This place, the Riu in Ocho Rios Negril. Awesome resorts. I enjoyed the Sunset Grande the best. I wouldn t recommend this place to anyone. Don t even have a real beach
Glad to see that Glad to see that it s still in operation! Glad too to read the other comments here, e.g., that others found it (and continue to find it) memorable as well. PS We never left the hotel compound. Jamaica was (and still is) a pretty las vegas hotels on the strip rough place. A friend of our family owned a vacation house there and was actually las vegas hotels on the strip killed during a home robbery about 5 years ago. If you go with a tour to the falls I m sure it s perfectly safe, but I personally wouldn t travel aboutthe island alone.
I was here with my I was here with my family circa 1984. As a (then) 12 year old kid, I really las vegas hotels on the strip had a blast. I haven t actually laid eyes on the place since then, but on a whim I decided to look it up: nothing seems to have really changed, which is good! The pool remains in my mind as the best hotel pool I ever experienced during the many vacations of my childhood. The beach is awesome too warm water, beautiful color, very shallow with lots of sand bars, i.e., you can walk out quite a ways from the beach.
Was there in 2004 Was there in 2004 with my girls. Hoping to talk my hubby into heading there again this winter. It was lovely, and the family suite overlookinglas vegas hotels on the strip the ocean was splendid!!! Can t wait to go back!
i stayed in a i stayed in a holiday inn in cancun mexico and it was OK nothing special. we recently stayed here in march 2011 and this was WAY better than holiday inn in mexico. Everyone there was awesome and the resort itself is very nice. had a great time in jamaica!!! counting the days to make a return.
Sunspree Mobay is Sunspree Mobay is the best place in the world! My husband and I have been there two years in a row. We went snorkling every day, enjoyed amazing food, made great friends and count down the days every year until we can return to our island paradise. We would never stay anywhere else but Sunspree!
I know i posted I know i posted already, but i have to say again that we really loved this place. Nothing could have gone any better. Me and my wife are going there again later this year. I CANT WAIT!!! If i could have it my way i would live here for the rest of my life, lol. Food was great, staff great, room was great. Sunsets are so beautiful. This is one of the cheaper hotels to stay at, dont take it as a flaw, i wouldnt change a thing about Holiday Inn. Goodluck las vegas hotels on the strip everyone hope you enjoy.
ive been there ive been there before you can definatly swimm its a great place but if you want something better i would stick with a sandles because this resort has a lot of kids runing around las vegas hotels on the strip but at night it is great.

In your case, you might consider a group private shuttle van which will at least take you to your ho

The low cost option suite hotels new york city would be to take the RER B from CDG (follow the signs to the RER station at Roissypol or in Terminal 2). From the RER B, disembark at Chatelet-les Halles and connect to RER A2 or A4, exit at Nation. Keep your ticket until exiting at Nation. suite hotels new york city Fare is 9.25 .
If you've never done a search here before, suite hotels new york city it's easy. Go to the little rectangular box at the top of this page just to the right of centre where it says 'search' and type in 'CDG to Paris' or anything similar. A list of all the threads that have that information will show up.
The airport bus is the most convenient and also you get to see the outskirts of Paris on the way in. It arrives just opposite the Opera house, Opera Garnier, which is central to everything. Make sure you confirm that it is the bus to Opera Garnier. Once there just get a taxi for the short ride to Rue du Faubourg. Don't take a taxi from the aiport, it is a waste of money. Many people speak english so don't be afraid to ask for help in finding the bus stop at the airport and the taxi stand in Paris. Don't stress, suite hotels new york city it's easy. Have fun.
okay, that rate ($100) is overstated, but still, if you are on a tight budget, you aren't going to like the taxi option. If you have trouble getting lost etc, getting tickets in advance won't help you any, and no, there is no way you can buy bus or local metro tickets in advance any place other than Paris. But you'd still have to find the stop (which would be called the RER), so that won't help you any to have the ticket.
YOur hotel is in a somewhat inconvenient location for the metro or bus, anyway. It really depends how far you don't mind walking. It's about 4-5 blocks west of Nation metro but those can be long blocks suite hotels new york city out there. suite hotels new york city If you don't mind that walk (but you might get lost), you might consider taking the Air France airport shuttle bus to Gare de Lyon and then the metro or RER to Nation. That sounds kind of complicated given your problems, I admit (there are other options, like taking the RER to Chatelet-Les Halles and transferring to RER A to go to Nation.
In your case, you might consider a group private shuttle van which will at least take you to your hotel (meaning suite hotels new york city not for just you, but a private company), I think that might be the best idea. Or take the Air France bus to Gare de Lyon and the metro or just a taxi from there, it won't be far. I hope you can find the Air France suite hotels new york city bus stop at the airport, is is marked pretty well and you can just pay right there at the bus. You just have to make sure you get on the right Air France bus as they have two routes.
You are going to have to learn the Metro system to get around Paris for your trip anyways, might as well save $60 and take the RER into Paris and take the Metro. Travel light with a 22 in roller and 5 blocks is no problem, especially in the morning

Ana returned minutes, hours or days later I don't know because I was dozing. She brought stomach med

So thanks to getting food poisoning in the states I was able to pretty much waste most of my first day in Paris. So much for going to the Paris Flea Market united kingdom hotels and seeing either very expensive things united kingdom hotels I can't afford or trying to buy something I can afford only to find out that I have been pick pocketed. Either united kingdom hotels way I felt outraged and rather stupid for getting united kingdom hotels sick as if I had any control over the matter. I spent most of my Sunday in bed trying to get over whatever the hell was going on in my body.
Food poisoning, the flu, black plague, Lupus? It's never Lupus. Whatever the hell it was that made me sick I was not amused. I was however nauseous and still jet lagged. Ana and I were going to the Flea Market that morning. Titi warned us not to go to the cheaper side but to stay in the more expensive antique part. He said you go to the affordable part to buy a really cheap leather jacket and you come out without your wallet or phone so it really isn't that great of a deal after all.
The plan was to wake up at 8am and get ready and head over to the Flea Market then hit the Notre Dame later in the afternoon. Luckily 8am is a sad joke when it comes to waking my beloved united kingdom hotels up from a deep sleep. It might be easier united kingdom hotels to wake a cave man from being frozen in a glacier for 5,000 years than waking Ana up and I've tried just about everything. When cymbals and signal flares don't work you just have to give up and wait. Maybe I am exaggerating a tad bit, she usually does wake up easier when we are traveling united kingdom hotels I will grant her that. She slept through my puking in the bathroom closet the night before, both times. This isn't a heavy sleeper but a person in a deep coma.
On the other hand she is smarter than me because she actually united kingdom hotels slept through the 8:00 AM alarm on into the 9:30 area. Meanwhile united kingdom hotels I lie there on the bed like a beached whale that suffered from nausea. She asked why I didn't wake her up with the alarm and I had to tell her that I was sick. I was surprised to find she didn't her my nocturnal bathroom trips. Why was I surprised by this I have no idea.
Our roles were reversed, she was chomping at the bit to get out and see the sights and I was stuck in bed with a belly full of bad and a head of swarming insects. Even though I was still glad I wasn't back in Houston, united kingdom hotels probably would have to work the weekend before Labor Day. Ana volunteered to get me some meds for my stomach while I sat there downing tylenol and watching Nature TV with French narration. The good thing about those kinds of programs other then the great cinematography is you can watch and get an general idea what is happening.
Ana returned minutes, hours or days later I don't know because I was dozing. She brought stomach united kingdom hotels meds and saltines, those combined with the Sprite in the mini-fridge was the cure that I needed to right myself. Two of those items, Sprite and Saltines, have been a mother's united kingdom hotels home remedy for stomach problems since the 1870's. I don't know how credible that is but if your mom never brought you Sprite and Saltines when sick then you either had a real medication or your mom didn't love you.
Finally by that afternoon I was able to walk around the room without feeling like I was spinning in a tilta-whirl and no more breaking out into sweats like James Brown (Good Gawd Y'all). I was ready to see Paris though I wasn't yet 100% tip top. So what better plan than strap 10 lbs of camera and glass to my back and walk around with my sweetheart.
I was still running a fever, sweaty and unsteady walking around the unfamiliar streets in a jet lag induced daze. Typically I am a ball of nerves when walking the streets in a strange city. It usually takes me at least a day or two too calm down enough to enjoy the sights and sounds . The first time I was in New York City I was as jumpy as a frog in an iron skillet, the same for Sao Paulo. Paris wasn't so bad, I was a little jumpy the first night there but walking around with Ana toward the Seine I was calm with exhaustion and fever. The Seine, if I was back home it would have been called Green or Ohio River or perhaps Skeeter Bayou. God Bless the People's Republica of Texas.
Paris is amazing in the same sense that New York City is, you can actually walk to just about any destination and if not the Subway is right there at your disposal. It is thrills me to be in a walkable city. I live less than a mile from my job but there is no way I'd risk walking across an intersection in Houston in the morning. I don't like driving across intersections in the morning in Houston or any time for that matter. When Ana was staying with me in March I even told her that I never take off from a green light, always hesitating for a few seconds because some dumb bastard united kingdom hotels is always trying to make it across. That act might have saved us both from a pot smoking pizza delivery moron one night who just clipped my front bumper.
We walked along the Seine, toward Notre Dame and Shakespeare and Company Bookstore. Each are landmarks in their own right, one has been in many books, the other sales many books and both have been in a few movies. united kingdom hotels S C is everything you ever wanted in a hip bookstore, crowded, united kingdom hotels claustrophobic and stuffed to the gills with dusty books. It wasn't until I met the author Jeremy Mercer at the Santos Book Festival that I learned united kingdom hotels that the owner allowed authors to sleep there in exchange that they help out in the store. I didn't really have time to ask about accommodations at that time and even so I had to go back to the States anyway to work more overtime to pay for this trip.
Ana and I made a circuit of the shop, up the stairs, pass the Japanese girl with backpack using an old typewriter in a cupboard. The English woman talking about travel to a couple in a large room. Then back down the stairs united kingdom hotels past a cubby hole with a children's bed and books and around back to the front. I was tempted to buy yet another copy of Tropic of Cancer and get the stores stamp on the inside flap but I really didn't need a third (fourth?) copy of the book. Not to mention the fact that I now have an entire wall covered with books in my dining room that I need to read. Half Price Books and numerous Borders Bookstore closings has turned me into a bit of a hoarder.
Notre Dame was also crowded with tourists and also Mass but it didn't seem as claustrophobic. Actually united kingdom hotels you'd have to be a 50 foot giant to even begin feeling claustrophobic in the Notre Dame. You witness the outside and think nothing of it but on the inside you see the real beauty of the structure, the high ceiling, the arches and columns and stained glass. This becomes quite common in most of the churches united kingdom hotels that I went into in Paris, the outside is just another church but the inside is wondrous Things like this make you realize that most American united kingdom hotels buildings are a joke, box stores and McDonald's and all ready to be knocked over by a strong wind and into the Wendy's or Wal-Mart across the street.
We left out through the same crowd that swept us inside like a wave and walked down toward the bridge to the other island in the Seine, Ile Saint-Louis. I had heard this island mentioned a number of times the night before has the best Ice Cream ever in the history of forever. united kingdom hotels The conversations of the night before between Ana and Titi about this ice cream place where in my head, though I was in and out of that space time continuum by then. I just remember hearing united kingdom hotels were the words yummy, best in Paris, and love it repeatedly. I was sick and a little drunk on champagne but I wasn't stupid, I knew we'd be hitting up that ice cream parlor as soon as possible.
I was lead through the narrow streets past the little shop windows with their interesting wares for sell but not really allowed to stray to far from the path. Ana was like a Ice Cream seeking bloodhound and I was tagging right along beside her. She knew exactly where to go and before I knew it I was standing at a window that had a list of flavors for the day. I had Salted Caramel, I am sure of that but I can't remember what Ana had, either way the ice cream was as described the night before, awesome.
After we got our bearings and started the short walk back to the hotel with my my body still sweating out what ever was trying to kill me the day before we tried to figure out what to do with the wreck of a day. The schedule was now completely screwed thanks to my stomach and bad American Food. We chose to go to the Eiffel Tower at around 9, which entailed going the 100 yards to the Subway united kingdom hotels with the chance of more walking afterwards.
I had heard stories from people about the Paris Metro, that it was dirty and dank and not well light and I have to say those people must have been in a different Paris. Personally every time I hear about a Subway system united kingdom hotels I just assume the worst which so far has been New York City. Even that is not as bad as movies and TV has made it out to be, I actually like riding the NYC Subway system because united kingdom hotels it gets you where you want to go unlike Chicago's EL which gets you about 20 blocks from where you want to go. I like the NYC Subway but nothing in it has ever been washed, just painted over a few hundred times since 1865 when it was first built. The Metro is old as hell to but the French seem to have heard about the invention of the Pressure Washer and keep that place clean or as clean as possible being buried under the Earth. It was also well light or maybe it just seemed brighter thank to the walls being covered in white ceramic tile.
We made a few stops and like any monkey in a strange tree I watched what others were doing to get the doors to open. When you reach a Subway united kingdom hotels Stop you can't do like NYC or Sao Paulo and just leap through the door as it open but you first have to flip a lever on the door to get them to open. These are need to know things kids, I don't want to charge face first into a subway door thinking I'm on Star Trek or the grocery stores where things open automatically.
It was around united kingdom hotels 9:45 by the time we reached the Eiffel Tower on a

I suspect it isn't the fact that you are using English but because you specifically filled out some box and told them you lived in the US or Canada, is that right?

I attribute my love of train travel the plaza hotel ny to my mother. When I was young, shortly after my father passed away she took us on many family holidays to visit friends and relatives in country Australia. I think she wanted to try to make life as normal as possible so holidays were at the top of the agenda and in those day trains were the most affordable way to travel.
Most of the journeys we took were between 8-18 hours long and always bought with them much excitement. The trains themselves offered dining the plaza hotel ny cars and sleeping bunks and friendly fellow passengers. Outside the windows were small towns and red dirt, kangaroos the plaza hotel ny running in the distance and train stations that appeared in the middle of nowhere. It was all very very different to the city life I knew.
As an adult I have ridden overnight trains in Germany, Italy, France and Vietnam, some comfortable, some less so but none I would have missed. On this page I plan to introduce you to some books about travelling by train, some classic and some more modern adventures. I hope they encourage you to take your own train journey.
Paul Theroux's journey includes rides on the Orient Express, the Khyber Pass Local, the Frontier Mail, the Golden Arrow to Kuala Lumpur, the Mandalay Express, the Trans-Siberian Express. In the mid 1970s he traveled from London to Asia via India discovering food, culture and religions along the way.
We were at the fringes of a bay that was green and sparkling in bright sunlight. Beyond the leaping jade plates of the sea was an overhang of cliffs and the sight of a valley so large it contained sun, smoke, rain and cloud -- all at once -- independent the plaza hotel ny quantities of colour. I had been unprepared for this beauty; it surprised and humbled me in the same degree the plaza hotel ny the emptiness had in India. Who has mentioned the simple fact that the heights of Vietnam are places of unimaginable grandeur? Though we can hardly blame a frightened draftee for not noticing this magnificence, we should have known all along that the French would not have colonized the plaza hotel ny it, nor would the Americans have fought so long, if such ripeness did not invite the eye to take it."
This book is an anthology of train stories commission by the Telegraph Newspaper in London. Most are about recent trips (2010-2011) although there are some older journeys. From Cuba to Hong Kong and all places in between this collection of stories is a great read for any traveller

These stories, taken from British newspaper The Telegraph include train stories from around the world by a variety the plaza hotel ny of well known travel writers. If you have every thought about taking a train trip the stories here paint a pretty good picture of what it will be like.
If you are planning an extended trip to Paris you will love this book. Using 25 one day train trips departing from Paris the author explores the history and geography of France. This book made me want to return to Paris and stay for a few months just so I could take these journeys.
The Man in Seat 61 is a website by Mark Smith, a former station manager from Britain. He developed the site - and the book - to help people explore Europe by train. The book is named after his favourite seat on the Eurostar. Unlike the other books on this list this one is a guide to help you plan your own train adventure.
A 4day journey across Australia aboard the wonderful "Indian Pacific Express" from Sydney to Perth. The train stopped several times en route at interesting towns and city's where the passengers enjoyed a walk or a bus tour of the area. Its a much better way to cross Australia than flying.
the plaza hotel ny In 1985 Paul Theroux spent more than a year riding trains through China and Tibet just a decade after the Cultural Revolution. He's descriptions of the people he meets are every bit as interesting as the journey itself. Reading this book has put the idea of exploring China by train on my bucket list. If you know very little about China and have an interest in learning more this book is a good place to start. Oh and the book won the 1989 Thomas Cook Travel Book Award so it deserves a read.

We woke up to Rhonda s voice talking with Garry on the phone. He had sent her an email and she thought it sounded a bit urgent… he had said to call him when she got it. When she called, he had said Wow, that was quick, I just sent that 5 minutes ago Apparently, he thought because we were so far away, it might take us longer to receive it. Haha, let me remind you, this was at 3 AM. Hilarious! We left Barkhamstead at 3:50 AM, in the car, headed for London Luton airport. We parked in mid term parking and caught a shuttle to the airport. discounted golf travel bags It was SO windy and cold. When we got inside, we went to WHSmith to get magazines and then stopped for a bagel and coffee before heading towards the gate. Our flight left at 6 AM and arrived in Paris at 8:20 AM. We had to figure discounted golf travel bags out where to buy billets for the RER into Paris. We took the RER (B line) from Charles De Gaulle Airport to the Saint Michel-Notre Dame exit.
Brandon and I started a point system for London and Paris. When we got off the train we decided it was London 1, Paris 0. The trains were old, dirty, and had a funny smell. Whereas London s trains are newer and cleaner. We walked out of the station, turned the corner, walked across the bridge over the Seine River, and looked up at the Notre Dame Cathedral, beaming beautifully in front of us. We took pictures out front, then headed inside for the tour. We walked around the first floor, taking pictures and soaking in the amazing gothic architecture. Once we finished inside, we headed back out and around the side to get into the line for the Notre Dame Tower.
At this point, everyone was well aware of the actual number of steps involved in climbing to the top… and we all verbally consented to it. No pain, no gain. While we waited, we snapped some photos and popped across the street to a souvenir shop. Karen pointed out that the same guy on a motorcycle kept driving around the block and passing us every 5 minutes. This kept on for about 30 minutes. Strange. Finally, it was our turn. We went up about 20 steps and bought our tickets. We were off… I m not sure how many steps were in the first set.. but I would guess somewhere around 200. Whew… that was rough. The view from there was amazing. You could also climb (more steps) to see the Bell Tower. I m pretty sure I saw Quasimodo, but no one else did. That was it… wasn t it? We were trapped in this massive line which we thought was the line to get down. When we got to the front, discounted golf travel bags we realized that it was a line to climb more stairs to the very top of the tower. HAHA… so, I would estimate another 200 steps (let me explain, the stairways are a very tight spiral staircase that only allows for 1 person to fit at a time.) OMG… finally, we made it to the top. And this view was even more impressive than the lower one. We took lots of pics of Paris and then asked some lady to take a picture of all of us. Perfect. And down we went. Roughly 400 steps to the bottom. It probably wouldn t be so bad, but we had already spent 9 full days of walking and standing. After Notre Dame, we stopped at Point Zero. It is the center point of France.
Next, we were off to Hotel du Levant to check in and drop off our bags. The hotel was in the Latin Quarter which was full of places to eat and shop. A really cute, welcoming hotel. We got the room keys and headed up the steps (lift only held 1 person at a time) to the 3rd and 4th floor. As soon as we checked out our rooms, we headed out to grab some food. We really couldn t decide on where to eat… so we ended up at a place that had chicken gyros. Maybe not the best place for a group… they had only chicken and you could have it in a pita, on french bread, or alone. haha… not much of a variety. It was our first real interaction with French people… I wouldn t say it went real well. Rhonda had a hard time understanding him (speaking English) because of his thick accent. He seemed really annoyed because we didn t know exactly what we wanted, and made some rude comment about us being Americans… Classic. We ate and headed out to explore.
We headed towards the Left Bank, stopping at the Saint Michel Fountain. Beautiful. There were some gold street performers hanging out there. The Left Bank is known for selling books, magazines, and paintings. We walked under Pont Neuf, which is the oldest bridge in Paris. To be fair, it smelled so badly of urine under there. Next, we walked across Pont de Arts, it was a sort of chain link fence that had loads of locks on it with names and dates. There were all sorts of people on the bridge, painting and sketching. On the opposite side of the bridge was the Louvre. We walked through the building towards the glass pyramids at the entrance of the Louvre. discounted golf travel bags We hung out there took some pictures and then headed back to the hotel. On the way we saw two police officers on rollerblades. Different. We walked back on the right bank. We crossed a bridge to the left Bank and stopped to buy an oil painting as our Paris souvenir.
Then we stopped at a souvenir shop and Andy used his French discounted golf travel bags skills. He asked the lady Ou se trouve la supermarché? Where is the supermarket? haha… and she answered in French. Brilliant. We crossed the street at the Saint Michel Fountain where there were now 2 guys playing a piano. Pretty cool. We stopped at the supermarket to get some drinks, wine, and snacks for the room. Back to the hotel for a little rest. We got up from our naps, freshened up, and headed out to the Eiffel Tower. We had prebooked our tickets for 2200. On the way to catch the train, we were in front of the Shakespeare Globe ad there was this bit of grass, and from that, out runs a rat. A RAT in the city!! Paris lost all of it s points at that moment. The best part was an Asian lady who was oohing and ahhing over this disgusting rodent as if it was an eight week old puppy. Too funny. My brother says that s common in bug cities but I m sorry, there are no rats in London. GROSS. Anyways, we arrived a bit early so we got a cup of hot chocolate (it was pretty chilly) and sat there waiting for our turn. Right on schedule, we got onto the lift and made our way up to the second level. Unfortunately, we were unable to get tickets to the very top But I read (from Rick Steve s) that you get a better view from the second floor anyways It was beautiful. Since we had already seen the view of Paris from Notre Dame during the day, it was absolutely perfect to see it at night from the Eiffel Tower.
discounted golf travel bags We walked around, took loads of pictures, and of course stopped discounted golf travel bags in the gift shop. On our way out, we caught one last twinkle discounted golf travel bags of the tower. At the top of the hour between dusk and about 2am the Eiffel Tower twinkles beautifully for five minutes. discounted golf travel bags It makes such an iconic monument even more amazing. Back to the train station we went. It was close to midnight and a bit sketchy We had to figure out which train we needed and just to keep everyone on their toes, we had to run to get the train back. But we made it to Latin Quarter and stopped into Carte Bancaire Italian restaurant for a midnight dinner. Then, back to the hotel. Andy and I had some wine to unwind and then got ready for bed. What a long day Whew.

U see , im in london , and i heard about that i can travel to paris for just 100£ with a return ticket by train, and the thing is i dunno good places to visit in paris, harvey hotel dallas on the other hand disneyland is made of atractions and stuff. by the way im 16. i can afford to buy a ticket with a hotel reservation (dunno exactly what this mean xD) up to 250£ and i wanna go now on our christmas holidays for one week ( on the 22 of december /2010 ) ALONE! i know eurostar harvey hotel dallas might provide me with no adult unconpanientship (dunno if i wrote that right) so my question : can u tell me the cheapest way to spend a week in paris (from london) or disneyland , with a hotel ? and maximum i can afford to buy is 250£. if thats impossible then 3-5 days would be also good .. but i still want 1 week , to relax so plz help and fast plz i apriciate in advance all ur help! ( )
want since you have only disposable 250$ there are pages in the facebook and you can find a hotel pretty cheap if you want your dream to came true. I don t think that you will miss anything on the contrary you are going to find what you want.

Plus there should be automated ticket machines at every train station, with English instructions. Wh

Planning a quick trip to Italy in a few weeks. My final destination will be Montepulciano , but I'm flying into Milano and will take a couple of days to make my way to Montepulciano via train (and a stop in Bologna).
luxor hotel casino las vegas I haven't been in Malpensa airport in close to 30 years and have zero recollections of it. I'm flying United from Newark luxor hotel casino las vegas . Is the best way to get into the city center the Malpensa Express? Any suggestions how to go from the arrivals area to where the train departs?
Yes, I would take the train in. In 2009, I flew into Milan but the train did not go to Milano luxor hotel casino las vegas Centrale at that time, so I took a bus instead. In 2011, I departed from Malpensa and did take the (then new) Malpensa Express train from Milano Centrale luxor hotel casino las vegas back to the airport.
Look for the train icon as you exit baggage claim at Malpensa - I'm sure it will be hard to miss. You need to buy a ticket before you get on. There should be a machine at the airport stop, perhaps a person to buy one from.
Your train from Bologna will not go to the Cadorna station. You would have to change at Centrale. At Centrale, you could switch to the metro to get to your hotel (M3 - yellow line to Duomo stop). Tram 1 should also be an option to the Duomo from Centrale.
There are two Terminals at Malpensa, and the trains into the city only depart from Terminal luxor hotel casino las vegas 1. One train from Terminal 1 goes to Cadorna. The other train from Terminal 1 goes to Centrale. The bus that departs from both Terminal goes only to Centrale Station. It is cheaper than the trains, but can take anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes longer.
Given the location of your hotel, it doesn't much matter whether you arrive at Cadorna or Centrale. You will probably want to take a short taxi ride from either station, rather than hassle without buying tickets for the Metro or a tram if you are not familiar with where to get them or don't know the lines.
luxor hotel casino las vegas Anyway, I wouldn't purchase anything in advance. It is really very simple to get any tickets you need at the airport. If you know what train you want to take from Milan to Bologna, you can buy all your train tickets at once at the airport (or any more than you might need beyond Bologna).
Plus there should be automated ticket machines at every train station, with English instructions. While the machines take credit/debit cards, mine did not work in the machines last I was in Italy (even though I had no problem in 2007). But Euro cash should work fine. It's a good idea to have an idea of the basic train schedule luxor hotel casino las vegas before you get there, though. There should be many direct trains between Milan and Bologna, some faster and more expensive, others cheaper, regional trains that may not be that much slower. Occasionally a train you want may not show up on the machines for some reason. It's a good idea to have the intelligence ahead of time, though. ("I'll try for the direct regional train at 9:00").

Twinkling turquoise budgetrental auto sales waters, a chic cosmopolitan vibe and tropical temperatures are just some of the reasons why Nice and the French Riviera draw a crowd every year. Trains from London to Nice are easy, thanks budgetrental auto sales to direct trains from Paris or Lille, and booking in advance means you ll be able to secure surprisingly cheap train tickets.
On France s south coast, Nice is only a 5.5 hour train journey from Paris with some amazing scenery on the way. The connection to high-speed TGV can also be made via Lille which, though budgetrental auto sales it takes slightly longer, budgetrental auto sales is a straightforward and fuss-free budgetrental auto sales platform change at Lille Europe. Either way, from London, the entire journey direct to the capital of the Côte D Azur can be made in 9-10hrs. And with year-round promotional fares it s good value.
You ll find the cheapest train tickets budgetrental auto sales when you book in advance. The Eurostar journeys open for booking 4 months ahead (120 days), while the TGV booking horizon is 92 days. However, you ll find that many of the cheap tickets for Eurostar are still available 92 days ahead, so it may be easier to book everything in one go. The cheapest standard fare for an adult from London to Nice is £116 return. If you book each leg of your trip separately, buying the return Eurostar ticket (£69) 120 days in advance and separate budgetrental auto sales TGV tickets (£23 each way for singles) you may make a modest saving. Perhaps not worth the effort! budgetrental auto sales  Both portions of the journey are available as  print-at-home  or collect at station tickets (both free) or for a fee UK residents can have them posted to your door.
On weekdays there s an alternative route via Lille which avoids changing trains budgetrental auto sales in Paris. There s one direct service from Lille to Nice in both directions each weekday, budgetrental auto sales which you can catch by opting for an early morning departure from London. The route via Lille takes around an hour longer than the London-Pais-Nice route, but might be preferable for families, or those with lots of luggage, who prefer a same-station budgetrental auto sales change budgetrental auto sales to the busy Paris Metro. The cost is comparable (£67.50 one-way, or £116 return). For the return journey there s a mid-morning departure direct from Nice to Lille.
budgetrental auto sales As the TGV makes its way south towards Lyon, you ll be greeted with picture-postcard scenes of pretty French villages and church spires. Beyond Lyon, the train winds its way along the Rhône Valley, across viaducts high above the valley floor and River Rhône. And as you approach the Côte D azur, you ll be greeted by the marinas, beaches and villas that have inspired many of the vintage travel posters we love.
The best way to appreciate these great views is from the top deck of a double-decker the train, and luckily we ve recently made it possible to choose your seat on the TGV duplex . If this option is available budgetrental auto sales for your selected trains we ll give you the opportunity to select your preference when you add your passenger details.

And most French TGVs charge but 3 euros a seat for domestic travel - international ones can charge m

I want to go to europe this summer with a friend and we are considering getting an EURAIL pass but a lot of people seem to advise against this, they say that it costs money to make reservations and you need to book way in advance. We plan on going in may which we heard is just before peak season, We also would like to know if it is better to book hostels/hotels far in advance or just wing it and book when we get to the city. We want to visit Madrid Barcelona Paris Verona Florence Rome and then fly from Rome to London and London home. What is the best way to go about this?
Lots of country trains do not charge a seat reservation fee, some do so it depends on which countries - many you can still hop on any train anytime and such fully flexible tickets can cost a ton of money. travel lodge daytona beach fl Check out these fab IMO sites for lots about European trains and passes - www.budgeteuropetravel.com ; www.ricksteves.com and www.seat61.com - the latter is a font of great info on online discounted tickets which however are sold in limited numbers and must be booked weeks in advance and typically cannot be changed nor refunded - so whether flexbility is desired or not is a key to which is better.
not true and typical of the misinformation about railpasses that it typical of Fodor's where there is an automatic bias against railpasses with typical comments 'they are always a waste of money' and misinformation like this - you say something enough people will believe it and repeat it as fact.
Fact is in UK, Belgium, travel lodge daytona beach fl Netherlands, travel lodge daytona beach fl Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Norway and Eastern Europe on nearly travel lodge daytona beach fl all trains you can still hop on with a railpasses on any train you want - complete flexibility.
Now in France, Spain and Italy you do have to have mandated seat reservations before boarding and except in the case of some French TGV lines which have a limit on the number of passholder seats they will sell per train - in Italy and Spain you can always IME get needed seat reservations as you go along - only on a few TGV lines in France should you book way in advance.
Unfortunately you are going to the three countries that mandate seat reservations so you have to figure in the cost of trains but again in Italy or Spain you do not have to book seats with a pass weeks in advance - IME you can usually book the same day as there are so so many trains and if you have a first class pass it is all the more easier as first class often has empty seats.
And most French TGVs charge but 3 euros a seat for domestic travel - international ones can charge more - like those going to Switzerland from Paris - In Italy the fee is 10 euros per train and in Spain around 10-12 I think.
And if you are over 25 then you Eurail Pass usually is first class and there are immense benefits IME for the average travel lodge daytona beach fl traveler in first class - especially those hauling around lots of luggage - more empty seats - always empty seats IME - more room to stow luggage travel lodge daytona beach fl - seats are bigger, etc. So compare the pass price to the cost of first class tickets IMO.
Yes the Fodor's mantra is that discounted online tickets which do have to be bought weeks or months in advance to guarantee their availability are the way to go - this advice is often given IME without even asking how many trains you will take or where - if you take many trains then a pass cold well be cheaper than a collection of non-changeable travel lodge daytona beach fl non-refundable tickets that must be booked weeks in advance. Now I am not saying that many folks naively may buy a railpass for just a few trips and they should not - do your research - do not believe the info you got from others like the one I quote here at the top of my post.
One problem with online discounted tickets is that for international journeys they may not always exist and also since these are in very limited numbers often you must book when they come on the system - typically travel lodge daytona beach fl 2-3 months in advance. travel lodge daytona beach fl But if your trip will take say three weeks you may find you can book the first trips two months early but not the later trips until they come on the system and then you never know if they will be available - they are not available on all trains - and then you may have booked some discounted tickets travel lodge daytona beach fl but found subsequent train trips could only have full fare and that can be very costly - point is you cannot book all your fares at once due to time limits of when they come on the system travel lodge daytona beach fl so it is hard to know all at once how much you will spend.
One train that railpass holders should avoid is the Thalys train between Paris and Brussels and Amsterdam and Cologne - this is the only train I know - regular train that imposes an absurd seat reservation fee on pass holders - about $35 in 2nd class and much more in first class - but you do not have to take this train usually travel lodge daytona beach fl unless you are going between Paris and Brussels- from Brussels on there are other trains you can just hop on - and since many folks go to Bruges from Paris then you can take a French TGV to Lille and regular train to Bruges travel lodge daytona beach fl in about the same time as going via Brussels and with a pass only pas a 3 euro seat reservation fee.
You should also you ask your questions on the message board forums for Lonely Planet website and Bootsnall. Those boards have a lot of people your age who have already done just what you are thinking about doing, and many of them traveled travel lodge daytona beach fl very spontaeously. You just need to be careful that sometimes people won't tell you about all the mistakes they made -- but that's true of any message board!
so how do i book online tickets for travel in Italy and france, my friend and i are considering cutting out spain and going from North starting in amsterdam then going down to italy and back up to Paris then taking the eurostar into london then flying home with occasional travel lodge daytona beach fl stops in a few cities along the way
What Man in Seat 61 continually misses is that some folks want flexibility to chose what trains they want to take when there and if so a very few full fare trips may warrant a railpass.

The U.S. economy is the largest in the world, with a $14.204 trillion gross domestic product, or GDP

The economies of the United States and the United Kingdom are two of the most powerful economies in the world.  Historically the UK has always, since its origins, been a powerful European economic force.  Throughout recent history, it has maintained its status as a powerful European economic player and expanded its influence into the global economic network. The UK made history when it became the world's first industrialized nation in the 18th century.  The UK continued to play a predominant role the global industrialized economy through the 19th century.  By the end of the 19th century, other countries hotels east end of london had begun to industrialize as well and had begun to challenge the UK for dominance over the world's economy.  The United States enjoyed a long history of expansion due to an abundance of natural resources.  In order to settle territory, the US offered incentives to foreign immigrants in the form of land grants.  This westward expansion phase began a massive surge of immigration hotels east end of london from other nations that wanted to take advantage of the booming US economy. The United States economy continued to gain strength through the middle of the 20th century despite several recessions and the Great Depression of the 1930's.  The United States economy has long attracted immigrants seeking a better life.  The United States today still has one of the world's highest migration rates.  The UK and the US economies are integrated in many ways, and when an economic downturn affects one, the other feels it as well.  So it was with the recent economic crisis of 2008.
The United States and the UK are highly industrialized nations whose economies are heavily dependent on foreign trade.  It is estimated hotels east end of london that the US exports $994.7 billion while it imports over $1.445 trillion.  The UK exports amount to $351.3 billion and imports are estimated to be $473.6 billion.  This leaves both countries with a gap in spending more than they are selling.  The inflation rate in the UK as of March was 3%, higher than the 2.1% inflation rate in the US.  Both the economies of the United States and the UK continue to play a major world in global economics.  The UK is a member of several trade organizations, including the European Union, British Commonwealth of Nations, Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development, and the World Trade Organization.  The United States is a member of trade organizations such as North American Free Trade Association, World Trade Organization, Organization hotels east end of london for Economic Co-operation and Development, G-20, and the G-8 among others.   Today, hotels east end of london these two powerful economies play an important role in global economic policy in the world. hotels east end of london (cia.gov)

As of 25 September 2012, no additional cases of acute respiratory syndrome with renal failure due to infection with a novel coronavirus have been reported to WHO. WHO is continuing investigations budget rental cares into two recently confirmed infections identified as a novel coronavirus.
The case definition, based on the cases so far, includes criteria for identifying a 'patient under investigation', a 'probable budget rental cares case' and a 'confirmed case'. These criteria are based on clinical, epidemiological and laboratory indicators.
Following the confirmation of the novel coronavirus, WHO under the International Health budget rental cares Regulations immediately alerted all its Member States about the virus and has been leading the coordination and providing guidance to health authorities and technical health agencies. WHO is also identifying a network of laboratories that can provide expertise on coronaviruses for countries.
budget rental cares The case is a previously healthy, 49 year-old male Qatari national that presented with symptoms on 3 September 2012 with travel history to Saudi Arabia several budget rental cares days prior to onset of illness. On 7 September he was admitted to an intensive care unit in Doha, Qatar. On 11 September, he was transferred to the UK by air ambulance from Qatar. The Health Protection Agency of the UK (HPA) conducted laboratory testing and subsequently confirmed the presence of the novel coronavirus.
The HPA compared the sequencing of the virus isolate from the 49 year-old Qatari national with that of a virus sequenced previously by the Erasmus University Medical budget rental cares Centre, Netherlands. This latter isolate was obtained from lung tissue of a fatal case earlier this year in a 60 year-old Saudi national. This comparison indicated 99.5% identity, with one nucleotide mismatch over the regions compared.
Though it is a very different virus to SARS, given the severity of the two confirmed cases so far, WHO is engaged budget rental cares in further characterizing the novel coronavirus. As such, international efforts are being stepped up across all WHO six regions to ensure an appropriate and effective response with a WHO specialist team in daily contact with more than a dozen international and regional technical partners.

Students of English hawaii rental cars history have to be thrilled by the news that a skeleton found at an archeological dig in the city of Leicester may be the last remains of one of the greatest villains in literature as well as a great enigma: Richard III, the last Plantagenet King of England. Richard III was immortalized in Shakespeare's hawaii rental cars play of the same name as the hunchback evildoer who plots and murders his way to the throne only to be struck down by the forces of the righteous Henry Tudor. We know that although Shakespeare's history plays are brilliant theater, they are far from being objective about their subjects. Shakespeare was, after all, determined hawaii rental cars to ingratiate hawaii rental cars himself with Elizabeth I, the granddaughter of the man who deposed Richard.
The revisionists have been busy for the past two hundred years seeking to rehabilitate Richard and portraying him as a modern, hawaii rental cars even liberal hawaii rental cars monarch who promoted justice and the welfare of his subjects. But whether you believe him to have been a 15th century version of Bobby Kennedy or not, the discovery of what may well be his bones will open up what should be an entertaining debate about the rights and wrongs of the last battles of England's War of the Roses as well as about the role of historical myths in shaping hawaii rental cars a country's national hawaii rental cars identity. Though Richard may have been nothing like Shakespeare's portrait, it must be understood that the play's contribution to the English — and by extension, American hawaii rental cars — belief that evil rulers should be overthrown played a part in the formation of a mindset that paved the way for modern democracy.
hawaii rental cars Non-Tudor sponsored histories of Richard's life have always noted that although he may have had what we now understand to be a form of scoliosis, he was not the malevolent hunchback of Shakespeare's plays. His short reign is notable for the creation of courts that were accessible to the poor as well as to institution of bail for those accused of crimes. He was also a valiant soldier, something that even Shakespeare acknowledges, and died while seeking during the course of the Battle of Bosworth Field to find and kill his rival in single combat, a gesture of Medieval chivalry that Henry VII wanted no part of.
However, hawaii rental cars even his contemporary supporters must still explain the disappearance and presumed murder of his nephews, the princes in the Tower, whose deposition allowed him to ascend to the throne. They were never heard from after they were locked up after his coronation. Most people have always assumed they were killed at their uncle's behest. But Richard's defenders assert there is no proof he killed them and that if they were still alive after Bosworth Field, it was Henry VII who had them executed just as he wiped out every other living male member of the defunct Plantagenet dynasty.
Does any of this matter to us today other than as a purely intellectual hawaii rental cars diversion? Perhaps not. The Tudors are as dead as the Plantagenets and other than the editors of People Magazine and similar publications, it's not clear to me if anyone actually cares who sits on the throne of the United Kingdom, though most Brits would be upset if someone weren't sitting on it.
But what does matter is the role that Shakespeare's play had in shaping the Western intellectual tradition. The earlier history plays center on what was considered to be the great sin of the deposition of a legitimate if unpopular king. They end with the overthrow of an evil king and his replacement by one we are supposed to think was good. When Shakespeare wrote Richard III in 1591, the assumption that kings ruled by divine right was nearly universal. But a generation or two later, the principle would be challenged in a Puritan Revolution that ended with a king having, as Oliver Cromwell put it, his "head cut off with the crown upon it."
Though it cannot be said that Shakespeare was much of an influence on the Parliamentary armies during the Civil War that ended the reign of Charles I, his plays were rapidly becoming part of the country's intellectual foundation. Though we can point to many others sources of the mindset that led to Britain's evolution to constitutional monarchy, Richard III is one of the mileposts along the way that posited a social compact between hawaii rental cars the ruler and his realm that redefined hawaii rental cars divine right as being dependent on good behavior.
hawaii rental cars The point is not whether Richard III was good or bad. We may all now shrug our shoulders at the rather thin distinctions between the heads of the rival factions hawaii rental cars of England at the time and declare that Richard is deserving of a reburial in a place of honor. Richard's white rose of York was no better or worse than his opponent's Lancastrian red one. But the concept that evil kings must inevitably fall and be replaced by good ones is one that helped pave the way for the Western hawaii rental cars tradition of government hawaii rental cars by the consent of the governed. Sometimes myth is just as important as history. In that sense we can all hope that the image of evil Richard is never quite extinguished, even if the anti-Shakespeare revisionists are right.
Students of English history have to be thrilled by the news that a skeleton found at an archeological dig in the city of Leicester may be the last remains of one of the greatest villains in literature as well as a great enigma: Richard III, the last Plantagenet King of England. Richard III was immortalized [...]
Good for you, Jonathan, for knowing the details of what is, IMHO, one of the great injustices of all time. There are myriad accounts that prove Richard did not kill his nephews, but your point, although unfair to what I believe was an honorable man who loved his brother and his brother s two sons, that there is good and evil and the former should always vanquish the latter, is well taken. I am most happy to read an account written by you, who demonstrably hawaii rental cars knows the history behind the grievous tale. You are as well-versed in your History as you are in your politics!!!

The post-war immigration to UK commenced in year 1950. Many workers from outside Europe and their fa

As the Queen celebrates her Diamond J ubilee, we think that it is a good idea to take a brief overview of the history of the United Kingdom immigration in the past six decades. The country has been a subject of turbulent changes since 1952 when Queen Elizabeth was crowned. United Kingdom has continuously implemented stricter and stricter immigration rules.  Nevertheless the inbound migration has dramatically grown.
The post-war immigration to UK commenced in year 1950. Many workers from outside Europe and their families immigrated to UK at that time. However with the rising tide of immigrants, racial tensions in the United Kingdom society began to appear.
The Commonwealth Immigrants Act was introduced in 1962. Before that all of the Commonwealth citizens could enter United Kingdom without any special restrictions being applied to them. After that they were subject to standard immigration control.
During the seventies, venetian hotel casino UK implemented even stricter immigration restrictions. Commonwealth citizens could settle in the country only after they prove that they have British ancestors, or only if they are eligible for other kind of UK visa . Despite the limitations 82 000 Commonwealth citizens venetian hotel casino came in Britain in the period between 1968 and 1975, most commonly through work permit, or through obtaining permission to join their UK relatives.
With the decline of the manufacture during the eighties it became even harder to obtain a work permit for UK. Only highly skilled workers, who possessed advanced venetian hotel casino specialist knowledge and training in a particular professional area, were able to obtain a work permit.
In year 2004 EU expanded, when ten new states from Central venetian hotel casino and Eastern Europe were accepted into the Union. UK did not impose regulations for citizens of Cyprus and Malta, so they could work in the country without any specific restrictions. People from one of the other eight new EU members, must register on the Workers Registration Scheme. This is however a very simple process.
The immigration policy of Britain continues to evolve and change. In periods of economic crises, recessions and depressions, the government usually implements very restrictive measures on inbound migration. In times when the economy is booming, more immigrants are allowed to enter the country. It is highly possible that the same pattern will continue into the future.

“After the East and Central, life just changed, you go in a shop to buy things, people pay for you.

Unlike his fellow former footballers who trekked to Botswana to seek fortunes in soccer which never were, Mwale went there to work after his employers, the Posts and Telecommunications Corporation (PTC), denied him an opportunity holiday inn san diego to further his education.
True to his wishes, Mwale was focused on his mission while in Botswana where he went with a diploma in insurance and has come back with a Master of Business Administration and valuable experience to take insurance business in Zambia to zenith heights.
Mwale, whose last employment was that of general manager of Omega Insurance Brokers in Francistown, describes himself as a "highly accomplished executive with a proven track record of driving insurance organisations to become major players in highly competitive countrywide markets, and continually set new standards for success."
"I remember staying on the bench without playing, that is why I liked wearing jersey (number) 12," Mwale, who started playing when United were being tutored by Kaiser Kalambo holiday inn san diego and Morrison Chimbalasepa, said.
Mwale said the senior team's loss shocked the Football Association of Zambia, who responded by sacking holiday inn san diego KK11's Polish-born Wieslaw Grabowski and elevated Col. Banda to take charge of the team, which was preparing for the Confederation of East and Central Africa Football Associations (CECAFA) the following year.
"For the position I was playing, there was a capable defender in Kapambwe Mulenga. But he had a bad game against Zimbabwe," he said of the former Nkana hard-tackling defender, who had a hard time marshalling Madinda Ndhlovu.
"He had a very tough opponent such that after the match, he made comments which did not please Col. Banda.   He was almost sent back but through our captain (Jones Chilengi), we rallied for him," the player they fondly called Long Legs said.
"After the East and Central, life just changed, you go in a shop to buy things, people pay for you. After that, a lot of teams wanted to sign me," he said, citing Nkana under Moses Simwala and Red Arrows.
"It did not go down well with FAZ. I was threatened with a life ban. Colonel Banda said on television (ZNBC, ZBC then) that he wants to build a strong team but has challenges with players like Mwale refusing to play," he said.
Mwale was transferred to the insurance holiday inn san diego department in 1987 and abandoned his vision of being an accountant and instead started doing insurance studies from scratch at the Zambia Insurance Business College.
While with Serowe Secretarial and Management Services, where he worked from 1991 to 1992, he increased the company's turn-over by +150 percent in 18 months, which resulted in principal reclassifying agency from cash agency to 90-day credit agency.
Mwale is married to Elizabeth Machula with whom he has three daughters– Bahati, a financial analyst who is based in Texas, Lise, who is doing her nursing degree in Michigan and Mwila, who has just completed her secondary school at Simba and is now studying at Mulungushi University.

Outside of the classroom, I tried to make the most of my free time. Being based about 20 minutes by

In search of a bit of a career break, some adventure and the chance to enjoy some out of character spontaneity, I decided to spend six months working, living and travelling in England. Some of my friends lovingly dubbed my decision to head to the UK on a whim a quarter-life-crisis. But we ll ignore that and call it simply an adventure, which it certainly was!
I never experienced a gap year after college or time spent living or studying abroad. I had plenty of friends in college who studied abroad, so I decided that it was finally my turn to go for it! I looked into some teaching English overseas fat tire bike tours paris jobs  dove in head first with a teaching job in England!
England never screamed exotic beaches , tan lines or breathtaking scenery fat tire bike tours paris to me; in fact, it didn t scream much at all. Rather, it was a feeble mumble of  grey skies , rain and bad teeth . I may not have been proven totally incorrect, although orthodontia has come on a long way in recent years in the UK.   The weather fat tire bike tours paris may not be perfect, but I did have six of the best months of my life living there!
I found an agency that placed native English speaker into schools, language centers fat tire bike tours paris and colleges to give conversation classes to students whose first language wasn't English. [Editor's note: Typically, you must be from The UK, EU or a Commonwealth country to teach English in England]  I have friends who had taught English abroad before and they all seemed to have the time of their lives, so when I decided to live and work abroad, teaching English seemed like a natural choice. I took a four-week intensive TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course  and, once qualified, I could start looking for work as an English teacher abroad.
Okay, but WHY England? I hear you ask. I knew I could have gone to virtually any country and found work as an English teacher (that's fat tire bike tours paris the beauty of having a TEFL certificate in your back pocket!), but, not being able to speak another language, I was dubious about heading to a non-English speaking country. I know working and living in a foreign speaking country fat tire bike tours paris is a great way to learn a new language, so perhaps I should have been a bit more adventurous, but I figured, why go somewhere completely foreign when there is so much to explore and learn about just across the pond? It might be the coward's way out to head to an English speaking country, but England is one of the most fascinating places I have ever been and I would urge you all not to overlook little old England just because it speaks the same language as we do.
My job was to work across several colleges and high schools with students whose first language wasn't English. I had never taught English in my life, except for the practice sessions during my TEFL course, so to say that I was nervous on my first day would be the biggest understatement of the millennium. I was terrified. However, it did get better! After a while I became confident and really enjoyed the work. The vast majority of the young people I worked with were energetic, engaged, eager and exceptionally friendly! fat tire bike tours paris I was there mainly to provide support to their full-time English teachers, so I wasn't expected to stand in front of a class of thirty and teach them alone, but rather work with small groups on conversation practice, vocabulary building and to help them with any little issues they had. The work was so rewarding, it's difficult to put into words.
Outside of the classroom, I tried to make the most of my free time. Being based about 20 minutes by train outside of London fat tire bike tours paris and only working 25 hours per week, I had quite a few opportunities to keep myself entertained. It s easy to visit the city for the day, but if you want to stay overnight, it s easy to find a good deal for an overnight stay in a nice  hotel in London . The school holidays (English students seem to enjoy many) also allowed me to travel slightly further afield, taking trips to Scotland, Wales and the North of England, a really beautiful part of the world.
Was my time in England worth it? The upheaval? The culture shock? The six months spent out of the real world? Without a shadow of a doubt, yes! I had wanted to travel and do something different and I found a great way to do that by teaching English overseas. Sure, I could have gone backpacking in South America , trekking in East Asia or worked in a tequila fat tire bike tours paris bar in Mexico, but I wanted something different than the typical traveler experience. I gained firsthand knowledge of a different culture (yes, England fat tire bike tours paris s culture is different from our own!), learned a lot about myself, and built up a whole host of new skills for my résumé. Plus I do a jolly good English accent now.
