Save Time, Fly Faster!

For those jet setters like me, you should take some time to know the tricks if you want to save time and get to your destinations quick. Hassle-free feelings, right?
You might want to consider these tips:

Airports tend to be less crowded during Tuesdays or Wednesdays. It's also even better to leave on Saturday morning, since most business travelers fly on Fridays. Always try to catch the first flight out any day to avoid the ripple effects of delays.

Whne booking, check on smaller airports because they are not as busy and have fewer delays than the biggies.

Have your boarding passes in hand and can head to the gate if you're not checking luggage. So, it's better to print your boarding passes at home.

Avoid items that can unexpectedly cause problems such as underwire bras and hairpins as they set off metal detectors. Avoid wrapped gifts and tangled cords as well. These can save you all from the hassle of the rescan!

The Softer Side of Hong Kong

Hong Kong is home to gorgeous natural landscapes, luxurious spas and idyllic island retreats beyond its sea of gleaming glass towers.

Surprisingly, few people realize that more than 70% of Hong Kong's land mass is rural. It has beautiful natural landscape such as stunning mountains, bamboo forests, wetlands and beaches. To get to know Hong Kong's greener side,, consider hiking one of the numerous trails that crisscross the island.

There's the Peak Circle Walk on Victoria Peak accessible via the famous Peak Tram which is funicular and features unparalleled views of Victoria Harbour and the coastal areas on both sides - Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories.

Spas here feature an amazing array of treatments and therapies due to the city's unique combination of Eastern wisdom and Western-style luxury. From acupressure and reflexology to Chinese herbal body wraps and European-style massages, there's treatment for every taste and need.

Hong Kong is also a home of more than 260 outlying islands making it ideal for island hopping, a perfect way for spending an idyllic day away from the city. Visit Lantau, the Hong Kong's largest island and home to the renowned Giant Buddha and Ngong Ping cable car ride; while Cheung Chau is a car-free island that's known for its thriving fishing community. Lamma island features quaint villages, scenic trails and great seafood.

The Highlights Of China

In Beijing, you can get to tour the city's ancient "hutong" areas where you can explore beyond major monuments and modern boulevards. The bustling neighborhoods with twisting alleyways, tiny shops and historic courtyard homes reflect Beijing's as it was before its modern makeover.
The best to explore on your own are the hutongs surrounding Qianhai ("front lake") and Houhai ("rear lake").

Shopping in Shanghai
You couldn't afford to miss Shanghai's shopping scene. From the glamour of the boulevards to the colorful chaos of the markets. Along the city's most famous waterfront boulevard called the "Bund" are the designer boutiques. Wander among the groovy shops and galleries in the former French Concession; and haggle for jade, silk, pearls and ceramics at the city's many excellent markets.

Scenic Southwest China
Area surrounding the city of Yangshuo is nothing less than spectacular. Rising almost vertically from the landscape are dramatic limestone karst hills giving the entire region a mythical air. Experience the magical area by taking a boat and tour on the meandering Li River and visit some of the tiny rural villages that have lined its banks for centuries.

Have fun! ;)

Back Home Again

Post contributed by Leonard Phelps

Being from Cincinnati, I knew that I’d come back here some day to start a familyand that’s exactly what I’ve done. It’s so nice being here close to my mom and dad and they’ve been such a great support system for both of us during this time. Looking for a new house was a lot of fun – my husband and I had really different about ideas about most things with the exception of a red front door and getting adt security cincinnati. But that’s not really enough to choose a house on so it took seeing a bunch of different ones and countless babysitting hours to land us in the right house but I think we’ve done it. There’s some work to do to get it the way we want it but I think it’s going to work out once we find the right contractor. Things are looking better all the time though and I can’t wait for us to start our new life in our new home here. Being home is great!

Visit To Winterthur Museum & Garden


May 21, 2011

Another typical weekend for us, so we thought of driving going to Winterthur to see what are worth seeing in there. We are not sure what to expect, except that it must be a house museum and the garden.
We usually pass by the place everytime we go to Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania, so we decided why not try pay a visit?

Winterthur is a museum, garden and country estate located at Wintherthur, Delaware and now houses many of the most important collections of American decorative arts with a nearly 90,000 objects made or used between the years 1640 and 1860. This is the former home of Henry Francis du Pont, a renowned horticulturist and antique collector.

We started at the Visitor Center to get our tickets and hopped in the tram for the garden tour. The garden has a vast area and might take us a while if we will take a walk throughout the entire garden. By doing that, we won't be able to visit the museum and the galleries or some other spots we wanted to see. So, the best choice was the tram.
The tram was a short ride, afterwhich we dropped off at the house museum. We were then scheduled for a tour at 1PM. We still had 40 minutes to spare to go around while waiting. The vintage car collections caught our attention which were displayed around the area so we took photos of them. They all look interesting, lol!

The house museum tour was 2 hours, and it was quite impressive to see all of Du Pont's collections including those floral designs of kitchen silverwares, and some more arts on the wall and paint designs in most of the rooms inside the house.
The Du Pont family were really one of the wealthiest during their time! It is no joke to tour the entire house for 2 hours because of its huge size...tons of rooms and lots of stairs, LOL!

By the time the tour was over, we were starving! Our day ended with a late lunch at the cafeteria. Their food was great! ;)

Unique Spaces That Can Earn You Income!

If you consider yourself a worlwide traveler and spend time enjoying yourself a bit longer in a certain place, the most ideal thing to do is to probably look for a unique place where you can rent and stay for a while. There are a lot of sublets that you can find all around the world if only you know where. Of course, the internet so far is still the best source for a productive search.

On the other hand, this is also quite beneficial to those who have spaces to spare for those who are searching for a place to stay. The chance is much more higher if your place is close to many attractions that are frequently visited by many tourists. Of course, you also have to consider the security of the area in the neighborhood as well.

Have you checked air bnb? They are easily accessible as an online community marketplace for spaces available for lease or rent. From the website, you can instantly list your space if you are trying to lease or sublet it to others. That easy!

I can say, this is both productive for the lessee and the lessor. Whether it be an apartment, a residential home, condos or even a castle, you can find them all at air bnb.

Pack a Health Kit For Travel

Illness and injury can cut a vacation short any time, so travel experts recommend to be always be prepared for the worst. Packing a well-stocked travel health kit can be just as vital as any guidebook in a medical emergency.

Your health kit's contents depend on your destination and planned activities, but the Centers for Disease Control recommends all travelers to take a basic first-aid kit with items such as adhesive bandages, antiseptic, gauze and an ace wrap. Pakc moleskin for blisters if you're walking across Europe, and take with you water purification tablets if you're cruising along the Amazon River.

If you are into dog sledding in Alaska for example, Take plenty of common cold remedies and cough drops. And don't drink the water in Mexico unless you've packed your kit with antacids and antidiarrheal medicines. There may not be a drug store around to where you will be going so better to bring your own.

When traveling with prescribe medications, health experts advise their patients to carry them on the plane. Make copies of all prescriptions, including their generic names, should they get lost or the trip run long.
