Cheap flights to New York delayed

When the low-cost carrier Norwegian announced their plans on a new direct line to New York with the Boeing Dreamliner 787, it was intended that ticket sales would go up after the summer of 2012, and that the first plane would take off at the beginning of 2013. Now we have arrived in October and still have no tickets appeared to.

"We have no fixed date for the premiere, but it will be done sometime in the summer of 2013. The tickets will be released for sale roughly half a year before the first plane lifts, says Åsa Larsson, press and information officer of the Norwegian, with NYPost.com.

What caused the delay?

– Boeing has problems with deliveries and that is why we have had to wait longer on our Dreamliner than we thought from the beginning. But now, it is decided that our first aircraft will be delivered in april of next year, then another two planes will be delivered in 2013.

Norwegian has expired hard and promised fares at around 2,500 dollars round-trip, which is about half of what its competitors do. The reason for the low price is that Norwegian Dreamlinern is more cost effective and fuel efficient than other planes of the same size.

This does not mean that we fill the entire planet with 2500-kronorbiljetter. But it will go to buy cheap seats, says Åsa Larsson.

Approximately what percentage of the tickets will be on 2 500 SEK?

– I cannot go into. We work with the product range of the plane's two classes, Premium Economy Class and Economy Class, right now. I can't answer what the most expensive tickets will cost.

Icelandair recently signed an agreement with the American aviation authority on traffic rights to the United States. This means that the company can fly to and from all airports throughout the United States.

Find Paris beyond tourist traps

A visit to the Ile Saint-Louis starts with the advantage on the famous Berthillon ice cream Cafe. The ice cream is said to be the best that the French capital has to offer, and there are several kiosks on the tiny island, but the greatest variety is recommended glassbaren of the cross Rue des Deux Ponts, and main street Rue Saint Louis en l'Ile.

Sex report that "snakes" along the street is moving slowly forward and waiting time devotes most of the customers to select the best combination of classic flavors that are offered.

READ MORE: Readers ' tips on Paris

If this has been United States had glassarna come up with fascinating names and interspersed with crushed cookies, toffee and marshmallows. But this is Paris, and here choose between dark chocolate, raspberry, mango, vanilla and romrussin-among other things. It's not the names that sell ice cream without taste experience, and it is clean, okonstlad, intense and genuine. It is quite impossible to decide a winner at the first visit, so the best advice is to come back.

Ile Saint-Louis is the smaller of the Islands. The larger island, Ile de la Cité are much better known. This was Paris's first settlements, and this is today one of the capital's most famous landmarks, Notre Dame. Tourists swarm around the island and the legendary bridge Pont Neuf.

Between the Ile de la Cité and Ile Saint-Louis, the simpler bridge, the Pont Saint-Louis, and immediately when you come across on the other side of the decreasing amount of tourists. Unlike the larger systerön, the little Saint Louis a highly vibrant neighborhood where monuments are few, but the residents even more. And among the shops that line the main street kullerstenslagda are delicious delicacy shops, exclusive boutiques, art dealers and Antiquarian Booksellers.

-I was the first in the world to open a bookstore specializing in travel literature, "says Catherine Domain, and keep up the door fast store is actually closed.

She is an inveterate globetrotter who spent ten years on the road before she decided to open the bookstore Ulysse on Ile Saint-Louis. The deal is sprängfylld with literature and maps, ten shelves high and three paper widths deep, travel literature packed. Catherine Domain has the exact track of everything and mix healthy between straightforward guide books and poetry.

-My favourite is the Pacific region. I have travelled a lot. Come into my shop, it's best to know what you are looking for, I'm almost always here and happy. But only if customers are nice. Otherwise, it could be, "says Catherine Domain.

She lives not on the island but like calm and familiar feeling that is here and she is very familiar with its history.

-What makes the area special is that the facades which you see today, was built all at the same time it is around the middle of the 17th century. Along the quays, the nobility, who stood near the King. In the middle of the island lived for those who were not quite as rich. It is exactly the same today, "said Catherine Domain.

Opposite the Bookstore is the Church, the pointed tower with cut circles can be seen from a distance. Just as the bookstore Ulysse, the Church is not particularly impressive on the outside-but goes inside the heavy doors open up a church in pompös Baroque style. The bright room in white and gold, contrasting to the bleak facade, and for those who want to do a deep dive into the history of the Church, now and then a guided tour.

A little further down on the main street, against Notre Dame, boutiques and antikvariaten on each other. Buy cakes of Cure Gourmande or designs much of Sobral. Butcher Jean-Paul Gardil are awards and prizes in the window and the cheese merchant Franck Guillot, who stands behind the counter at La Ferme Saint-Aubain, lies the cheese tightly, tightly.

-We sell over 100 types of cheese from different parts of the country. A lot of tourists come here, so we are packing everything for transport for those who want to, "said Franck Guillot where he stands among the cured meat products and sausages, vällagrade hard cheeses, sweet-smelling mould cheeses and creamy goat cheeses.

La Ferme Saint-Aubain is the perfect place to botanisera and shop for a picnic along the banks of the Seine. Seating improvised depending on time and weather. Just choose a location along the quay, go down a half step down towards the river or sit in the small park, which is located on the island's eastern tip.

Monique Pellissier at Galerie Alizé recommends otherwise, a bite to eat at the Brasserie de Ile Saint-Louis.

-Absolute. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the menu is typical French it could be and it is without a doubt my favorite on the island, "says Monique Pellissier.

She has driven his art trade since 1989 and is addressed primarily to collectors. Monique Pellissier think Saint Louis reminds her of old Paris. As it once was.

Of course change the part, before there were no shops that were part of a chain. Some of them are located along the main street today, "she says with a little supercilious voice.

"But remains the island himself. Of course, the many tourists, but the feeling of authenticity is not lost. Not here, "said Monique Pellissier.

A carafe (0.5 litre) red wines 10-14 euros, metroresa 1.7 euros, main course 15 euro. Hotel night in double rooms, three stars, around 160 euros.
At the bottom of the main street is Café St. Regis-a room filled with patina, its friendly leather sofas and checkered floors. Smoking hot chocolate dialed up from white pitchers and rödvinet served as it should be in caraffes.
Outside of the five bridges linking the Île Saint-Louis with the rest of Paris. The island is at the same time very central, and a quiet little avkrok that made for slow walking.

Adolf Hitler took a morning walk

Adolf Hitler took a morning walk along a lake and suddenly slipped and fell into the water. The cold gave him rapidly cramp and he ended up in the deep water and was finding it increasingly difficult to stay afloat. Just as he began to fall, a youth perspective on him from the beach, and the young man threw himself into the water and managed to drag up the dictator of Germany.

Airlines expose allergy sufferers to death

Airlines risk the lives of passengers suffering from nut allergies.
The warning comes via an English study.
- Airlines must take this risk seriously, says Dr Jane Lucas.

She is an allergy specialist and works at Southampton General Hospital in England.
Dr. Lucas emphasizes that airlines do completely different emphasis on how they treat passengers with allergy problems.
In the study, men and women with exceptional problems including how they were treated by the cabin crew on board.

A passenger who described their problems and asked that no other nearby were served peanuts was just a comforting coat over the arm of a flight attendant and said:
- Poor you!
Another who also pointed out the severe nut allergies was served with a salad - walnuts!
- The study demonstrates that although these allergic individuals will do anything to protect themselves, they risk their lives airlines because they do not take the risks seriously, says Jane Lucas.
- It's scary to see how the airlines differ on this, and even within a single airline's various routes.

One example is Air Canada a few years ago decided to introduce nuts free buffer zones on board after some difficult incidents. Peanuts were banned completely on all flights, but not cashews and almonds.
But to create such a buffer zone, the passenger in question told by at least 48 hours before departure, and preferably also able to present a medical certificate.
Another problem is that the aircraft is a closed air space and persons with severe nut allergies (or perfume allergy) can suffer from "airborne allergies."

SAS and Ryanair are two other companies that no longer serve peanuts on board. SAS also has a ban on open-bought perfumes board.
Swedavia, a government group that owns and operates eleven airports in Sweden, has strict rules for allergy sufferers because some airlines still serve peanuts.
Travelers are asked to provide information about their allergy problems when booking and then also at check-in. Ideally, the passenger shall have a letter, both in Swedish and English, about their problems and what the consequences might be.
The passenger then gives the letter to someone from the cabin crew and ask the captain to have read it, in order to avoid exposure to an allergy shock aboard.

Make your trip to a paradise

Go there: In early november starts Wing charter to Punta Cana with departure from Stockholm. Stopover in Copenhagen there, direct flight home.

Dominican Republic has over 350 kilometres of magnificent beaches stretching along the nation's 1,387 kilometres of coastline. Many qualify for travel newspaper lists of the world's best dream beaches. But that list the best beaches is not an easy game because they differ as widely as the island's geography — each beach has its own beauty.

One of those dream beaches, Bávaro, stretching about 30 km along the winter new charter destinations, Punta Cana on the island's eastern coast. The crystal clear turquoise blue sea is lined with a soft, fine-grained sugar white sand sprinkled with high kokosnuts palms and all-inclusive hotels, each with its own small private beach.

The long Bávaro beach is – from the South to the North – divided into playa los Corales, playa del Cortesito, playa de Arena Gorda, playa Macao. All equally nice and long shallow, but the further north you get the fewer visitors. What varies along the length of the beach is the provision of canteens, bars and restaurants and water activities: snorkelling, diving, windsurfing, parasailing, deep sea fishing, to name a few.

At the hotel

Hotel guest says:
But God what ugly painting that is hanging there!
-Excuse me, but that is a mirror.

Niagarfallen is worth a visit?

QUESTION:
Where can we get big naturuppleveser? Niagara Falls is worth a visit? Where can we learn more about Aboriginal peoples in Canada? Thord


ANSWER:
When it comes to Niagara, is the city itself quite kitsch, but the case is impressive, with water rushing over rock edge with a roar, North America's largest waterfall in terms of volume. Put on a rain jacket and go aboard the "Maid of the Mist" to get a wet look at closer, and then take the opportunity to visit the region's wineries. In the area there are more than 60 farms, sparse, and you can either ride or drive between them.


Another utomhusplan – especially if you are going to Quebec City – means that run northeast from there, through Charlevoix region, where one can buy everything from lamb and cheese on small farms. Try rural rustic restaurants and beer house. City of Baie St. Paul, which is full of galleries, is a good stop. Then travel on to Tadoussac to watch whales (Beluga, blue whale is among the most one can see), paddle havskajak and walk in Saguneayfjordens wild parks. From Montreal, it takes about as long to run to Tadoussac for Niagara (approximately 7.5 hours).


Don't forget Laurent ians, the quickest way to get a dose of nature in Montreal. Only one hour outside the city can you find the soft rolling mountains, crystal clear blue lakes and snirklande rivers. Skiers are there in abundance in winter due to its alpliknande villages, and in the summer, hikers, canoeists, and art galleries.


To learn something about native Americans, visit the Musee de la Civilisation (mcq.org) in Quebec City, which has exhibits about the provincial eleven aboriginbe people. The Canadian Museum of Civilization (civilization .ca) is great if you happen to be in Ottawa. It is packed with totem poles and knowledge of Aboriginal peoples in the whole country.


You can also get a feel for the aborigin culture, check out the First Nations Drum (firstnationsdrum.com) and CBC Aboriginal (cbc. ca/aboriginal) for news, and CBC Radio 3 (radio3. cbc. ca) for podcasts with aboriginmusik.

Norwegian border traders are invited to choose Denmark

A Norwegian family acts on Nordby shopping center outside Strömstad, near the Norwegian border. The three Crown value against each other means that it is now cheaper for Norwegians to get to Denmark instead. 
Is this the end for the long queues to liqoured companies and supermarkets at the Norwegian border? Norwegian economists argue now that the Norwegians go to the "wrong" country to fill the coffers. Now it is cheaper to travel to Denmark.
– The Swedish krona has strengthened sharply since 2009, and it is not so cheap, compared to the past. At the same time, the Danish krone was not so weak against the Norwegian in several years and the forecast says that it will be weak for some time to come, "says Maria Setsaas on Norwegian Focus Bank.
While Sweden's economy has fared well, the Danish krone, which complies with the euro, has been dragged into the crisis. The Norwegians, who are outside the EU and stands firmly on its oil assets, to benefit from this.
At the turn of the year 2008/2009 was a Norwegian spend 134 kroner for a Danish-per diem allowances. Enough of 98. A per diem allowances costs still fewer Norwegian krone, 88 at the time of writing, but is clearly more expensive than a few years ago when it was below 80.

Viet Nam and What food should you try?


QUESTION:
We love Asian food, and have heard a lot about the Vietnamese food. Is there anything special we should try?
Bernt and WIP


ANSWER:
Vietnamese food differs from region to region. A typical meal mixes sweet, acidic, crisp, soft, strong and mild flavors and common consistencies.


Vietnamese people often describe themselves as either "soy sauce" or "fish sauce". The people North often choose soy sauce in their rich Boletales, including pho bo, a classic beef and noodle soup from northern regions. People in the South have coconut, lemon grass and lots of fish sauce in his curryliknande rights.


In Central Viet Nam is the food incredibly refined. Specialities from Hue include banh khoai (Royal rice cakes), whereas in Hoi An, one can taste the delicious banh bao, or "white rose" which is a steamed räkravioli and cao lau (flat noodles served with krutonger, pork and vegetables). To learn how to cook these dishes, so you go to Morning Glory (www.restaurant-hoian.com) in Hoi An has excellent cooking lessons (from $ 200).


Fast food from the street is also excellent. Hanoi Cooking Centre (hanoicookingcentre.com) organizes trips (half-day trip cost 350 kronas) where you can learn about fast food from the street, and even try out some of the classics like xoi (sticky rice with accessories such as sweet sausage or knaperstekt eel).

Come home late

What do you do when you have been out and partied too long one night and then come home?

Then you'll get a look at a real sleep!

To stroll around in the streets is the thing here, there are lots of small, trendy cafes to stay on, grab a coffee at Caffe Kaaba for example – a retro-café – or try the local wines of utomhusgazebon on the Vinicni Altan-(vinicni-altan. cz).

Next door is Zizkovområdet which is Vinhradys straight contradiction--a silly and bökigt working class area known for its pubkultur. It is named after the Czech hero Jan Zizka, as can be seen in the form of a giant doll on top of the Zizkovkullen along with the fascinating National Memorial (nm. cz) from kommunisteran. Nearby is another prominent landmark: the futuristic television tower-(radiokomunikace. cz/en/the-zizkov tower. html), which is best known as home to the artist David Cernys a little scary baby sculptures.

The northern suburb of Troy houses the Prague zoo and the impressive baroque palace Troja Chateau (ghmp. cz), an outpost of the Prague City Art Gallery. You can take you there via a lovely stroll through the Stromovkaparken and along the River Vltava, or by boat along the River (praguesteamboats).
Smichov, in the western part, is the city's hottest suburb at this time. Where you will find small, designerhotell, cocktailbarer, and a huge shopping center. It is also where you can go and look at the modern art at Futuragalleriet (futuraprojekt. cz), and take the traditional beer and pub food at the Staropramen brewery Brewery (staropramen.com).

Eating grass

One morning was a wealthy businessman in his limousine on the way to work when he saw two men standing on their knees and eat grass at the side of the road. He asked his driver to stop the car so that he could investigate the matter.
-Why are you eating grass? ", he asked the two men.
"We do not have money to buy food, said one man.
-Join me instead, suggested the businessman.
"But this gentleman, I have a wife and two children as well," said the man.
...-Take it with them, said businessman and then turned to the other man. Come with us you too!
"But this gentleman, I have a wife and six children, said the other man.
-Take with them, there is no problem, said businessman.

Everyone jumped into the car-which was not an easy task, despite the size of the limo. When they had gone a bit, said one of the poor men:
-I cannot thank you enough. It is really nice of you to include us all.
"There is no problem whatsoever. The grass where I will be 30 inches high.

How to travel best in Viet Nam?


QUESTION:
Which is the best means of transport?
Mia and Lena


ANSWER:
The easiest way to get around Viet Nam is with Open Tour buses (private bus companies connecting the larger towns). Try the well-managed Sinh Tourist (www.thesinhtourist.vn). Otherwise, domestic aviation cheaply (Hanoi – Hue costs around $ 375) and trains usually does well. In cities it costs around 15-25 euros in taxi with taximeter, for shorter tours.

End close

Two priests stood by the roadside and held up a placard with the words:
"The end is near! Turn on before it is too late! "
-Add of your religious idiots, shout a motorist when he drove past.
When the motorist passed the curve was sound from constricting decks and a large stone.
-You, said one priest.
Perhaps we could have written:
"The bridge is gone" at the plate instead.

"The largest sow I have ever seen"

Worst memory ...

It was when I ran on a pigg car on Salarakan. I was out on tour, and it was so long ago that it was on the left. When the road was any hitchhikers and I turned me against them and said that we had not. I had always been behind a Volvo and all of a sudden turn it out and run on the tractor before I run into. I wake up to wake me and put me on the side of the road. So, I see suddenly the largest sow I have ever seen next to me and I was terrified. I plåstrades on and continued my tour and the same Christmas, I received a wood pig sent to me with a card which said "We hope to be seen under other circumstances. The sow conceived 12 piglets a week later ". Then I understood why she had been so thick.

Best memory ...

– When i was in Thailand when I turned 70 this year. All the children, grandchildren and a great-grandson was in and it was so wonderful to be there with all of them. I made a similar trip with MOM and dad to Kos in Greece and there are the two trips I agree.

The Pack I always down in the suitcase ...

– Photographs and candles are the most important besides the toothbrush and such things. I want to always have with photos of family and sterarinljus to get the snuggle up in the hotel room. If you ask whether we should burn them so tend it well.

The first thing I do on
the hotel room ...

– Either, I have purchased or have I picked flowers that I put forward. Then I felt confused on where the position where they are going to set their suitcase, so I packed up the bag and so I hide it under the bed. I don't want it to feel like I'm on the road. And a tip is to always leave the lamp switched on to the bathroom at night. Once when I was in a hotel room and famlade up to toan at night, I was angry about the fact that someone made a Bureau in the way of the door and would just get over it when I realize that it is not an agency but the window frame. I was going out the window.

Travel Tip ...

— When you are packing, folding not only and put down the bag. Outsource your pants straight over the bag so they hung out over the edge, then in the next garment over and fold since the first cloth over the other. Then there will be no sharp creases and nothing gets wrinkled. It is the world's best practices.

Fairytales

How do we expect that children should listen to their parents when Tarzan lives half-naked, Cinderella comes home at midnight, Pinocchio lies all the time, Aladdin is the King of Thieves, Batman runs at 320 km/h, the sleeping beauty is lazy and snow white lives with 7 guys.
We should not be surprised when their children misbehaved, they may do everything from fairytales

"Where you get the best of Italy"

Victoria Dyrings best travel memories is a wedding in the South of Italy.

Worst travel memory ...
It coincides with my most interesting resminne who is from Niger in Africa, one of the world's poorest countries. I visited the leprosy neighborhood and the images from there are engraved on the retina. So much misery, but at the same time, such a natural joy that patients showed up.

Best travel memory ...
– A wedding with just a bunch of Italians in southern Italy Polia where i lived in a room inserted in a cliff. Quite magical and quite fantastic party.

Favorite Destinations ...
– A farm in Tuscany in Northern Italy where I return year after year. Where you get the best of Italy. It is insanely good food, great people and great weather.
In Italy, children are never a problem but welcome everywhere and it is incredibly useful when traveling as a child family.

The Pack I always down in the suitcase ...
I've actually always a clown nose with my suitcase. I had with me on all my travels for several years now. One could say that it is a little like a mascot, a turmaskot. And you never know when you might have use for it. I have several pieces in case I lose one.

The first thing I do on the hotel room ...
I go around and smell in the room. It has happened too many times to encounter smoke or sewage odour.

Travel Tip ...
– Try to travel with an open mind and not get caught up in all of your expectations. It is great to see new places, and new cultures. I therefore think that we should only take in and try to enjoy being somewhere else where it has never been before.

Gadget Crazy lawyer

A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Ferrari in front of your Office to proudly show it to their colleagues. When he stepped out of a truck too close to the kerb and drove straight into the side of Ferrarin and tore off the driver's door!
Fortunately it was a police officer in a police car close enough to see the accident and drove up behind Ferrarin with blue lights on.
But before police had a chance to ask some questions, the lawyer scream hysterically about how his Ferrari, which he downloaded off the day before, was now completely destroyed and would never be the same, regardless of how well the tinman he would get to repair it.
After the lawyer finally stopped rant shook the police on their heads in disgust and disbelief.
"I can't comprehend how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your property that you neglect what matters most in life."
"How can you say such a thing"? asked the lawyer.
The police replied: "you realize that not even half of your left arm is missing? The torn off when the truck hit you! "
"Oh, my God!" cried the lawyer watching the bleeding stump,
"My Rolex!"

7. keep the jacket on! If you travel in the heaviest clothes and shoes, so you can save a lot of weight in the bag.
8. the Plan even before the outfits you have on you during the journey. Remember that you can use it more than once, and you can combine a garment in a variety of ways.

This is heaven.This meant that the old man was too crazy of anger, he threw the hat into the ground, stampade of the yelling of anger.
His wife tried to calm him, and asked what was wrong.
– Had it not been for your fucking health food, so we could be here as early as 10 years ago!

What should we see in Viet Nam?

QUESTION: We are two women in her thirties who plan to travel to Viet Nam for three weeks. We would like to start in Ho Chi Minh City and end in Hanoi. What are the places along the way, we should definitely visit, do you think? Verona

ANSWER: Ho Chi Minh City is the most modern and most exciting in the country. Take two-three days of sightseeing (make sure that you visit the military museum, and reunion Palace and Jadepagoden). You are going to eat great good there, and there is pressure in the nightlife.
Book a day trip to the nearby Cu Chi and explore the incredible "tunnel city" as the Viet Cong built during the war and who made it possible for them to carry out surprise attacks on American bases. You should also consider travel to Mekong Delta which is an agricultural region where you can visit the River markets and try Vietnam's breakfast by staying at a farm in Vinh Long.

Vietnam's best beaches are located along the Central East Coast and includes Bai Bau and Vung Ro Bay. Further south lies the idyllic Doc Let, beach-resort and party city of Nha Trang and the center of kitesurfing-Mui Né.

Most travelers go to Hoi An, The grandiose homes that belonged to Chinese merchants, the ancient pagodas and the city's location along the River is very nice. There are also excellent restaurants, good beaches and Chamruinerna in My Son. Schedule three days there.
Hue boasts an unbeatable collection of pagodas and palaces, Royal tombs and temples in the imperial city and along the Perfume River. Definitely worth a couple of nights. From Hue, you can go to the Parque Nacional Phong Nha-Ke Bang, where you can visit some of the world's most spectacular cave systems, such as Paradise Cave, and sailing by Phong Nhagrottan.

Then go directly to Hanoi by train or flight and you will enjoy one of the capitals of Asia, which has the most atmosphere. Book yourself in one place in one of the old narrow streets in the old town. Three of the best places to visit in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, the gracious literary Museum and the excellent ethnolinguistic Museum.

If you like to walk, then go to Sapa. In this region you can find spectacular hiking trails through traditional villages and with views of the high mountains.

Finally, you should not miss the Halong Bay, a surreal sea landscape with thousands of vittrade called karstöar in smaragdgrönt water. It is mandatory to go on a cruise overnight, but perhaps you would rather go to Lan Ha Bay, with fewer tourists and not feel just as packed with people.

This is The last paradise

There are no hotels in sight. Slipping around the islands of Tarutao is a wonderful natural experience.

"Leave nothing but your footprint" is written on large wooden billboards along the concrete path, sometimes lerstig, leading by Koh Tarutao – 26 km long island in the National Park of the same name, which, in total, consists of 51 Islands.

Castaway Beach Resort on Koh Lipe.

One who has reached the last beach, Ao Son, Sascha, James naturfotografen from Vienna. 39-year-old left the family on the Mainland, came here with his tent, and now have the whole Beach to yourself.

– The island is that of the United States's national parks, the longer you go, the less people will see. On the first Beach, there were about 60 people, the others had 20, and here I am alone, smiling Austrian. Sascha knew already that the Park was artrik, but when he did his research on where in Thailand the most unspoilt nature, he had learned that the Islands are home to no fewer than 100 species of birds.

– In the night, I take with me the flashlight and headlamp bulb and leaves me out in the Woods. This is where pytonormarna comes down on the ground to hunt!

It takes a snabbåt and go West for an hour straight out of Andamanska sea is to Koh Lipe. Unlike the other islands in the Tarutaos National Park, which is mountainous, so is this little island, relatively flat, and has thus also been easy to exploit. The past five years, despite the fact that Koh Lipe in Ko Tarutaos National Park, built on the island, and as a result, bars, restaurants, holiday Centre, travel agents, bakeries, mopeduthyrare and many other businesses are flocking to the small space that is located along the island's main road.

With one of the island's many dykarrangörer, Castaway Divers, the Spaniard Aitor Campos worked as an instructor in the last four years. Every day he takes with the dykentusiaster for a view korallrevets diversity, but these days, he has difficulty holding back his disappointment.

– A few years ago there were plenty of large fish, such as sharks and sword fish, but now there are only small fish, clarifies Aitor and continues:

Koh Tarutaos nature is protected by law.

– Sea nomads has always been fishing here, but now comes the big boats in and vacuums the sea on the large predatory fish. On each boat are working 40-50 people and when they throw plastic garbage in the water washes up on our shores and messes down for everyone.

The image of a tropical paradise, attracts thousands of new travelers each year, and despite the fact that in some places begin to resemble other exploited Thai holiday island raises still calm and the feeling of just being, above all, on the eastern shore, Sunrise Beach. It is the longest beach of the clearest water, perfect for snorkelling, and a handful of resorts are scattered along the beach. This is Castaway Beach Resort, which in addition to its dykarrangör also has a restaurant where loungemusiken is mixed with vågsvallet. Some of the guests is in hammocks and just look out over the sea; It is the same kind of atmosphere that on Ko Tarutao, though in a more developed bottling. For 100 years ago the sea nomads, or chao leh, which is an Indonesian nomads, to Koh Lipe. Chao leh means "people of the sea".

John is the chao leh and feed himself and his family to run out of tourists to the Islands in their longtailbåt. His weathered, läderartade hy bear witness to many years in the strong sun. The smiling face is genuine, and he learned English when he tells visitors to his home. The turquoise water is all the more incredible, like a movie recording when the colorful wooden boat slowly touches on the pristine beach of Ko Adang. The hilly island has, so far, only one resort, and most of the few travelers who decide to stay overnight on the hilly island and regnskogstäckta choose to camp on the campsite.

Koh Rawi feels like the scene of a wild jungle, even though the island is just an hour's boat ride from the tourist flocks on Koh Lipe. The only thing that breaks the total wilderness feeling is looking back out to sea, where fishing boats hunting on the sea's riches are in full swing, then the Sun of pardiset has started to go down.

-Nah, it is not necessary. He has his brother with him!

Masterly floor displayed in Siena


Now there is a chance to see parts of Sienas Cathedral which tend to be closed to tourists. Here are more great Italian churches, you don't want to miss.

Kyrkgången in the big Cathedral of Siena is a true masterpiece, which not all visitors are discovered. Typically, the floor is covered with protective plates to prevent it from being torn apart by all tourists. But for two months now displays fine art in marble and mosaic, the newspaper La Repubblica. From 18 August to 24 October, there has been a chance to see works by Pinturicchio and Beccafumi. The reasons are, for example, the images of knowledge and Virtue, as well as pictures inspired by Christianity.
This, however, is just one of many great Italian cathedrals. Here are three others to check out.


Santa Maria del Fiore
It is not surprising that the Cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence is listed on UNESCO World Heritage list: it is an impressive experience. In Piazza del Duomo, the spectre of the magnificent symbol of Renaissance architecture up and sight takes almost blow a. The façade shifts beautifully in green, white and pink. The Church is one of Italy's largest and certainly one of the most beautiful.
Now, we can see that in the past was the entrance to the Cathedral, the eight tonne heavy bronze gate called door of paradise, which has been restored during the three decades. It is displayed in the Museo dell'Opera di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, from september 8.


The Basilica di San Pietro
This is probably one of the world's most famous churches, Basilica, which is technically located in Vatican City. The huge Cathedral was opened in its present state in 1626. Sex meanders often long to enter, hit streams both tourists and Catholics from all over the world. But the wait is rarely particularly long. Inside, we find not only a huge space and magical atmosphere but also the Bernini's magnificent sculptures. Don't miss Michelangelo's pietà sculpture La nor respect, directly to the right of the entrance. The ork in the legs can also go to the top via the stairs-very narrow and winding for a stunning view over Rome.


Il Duomo di Milano
This Cathedral is one of the largest Gothic churches in the world and the most important example of Gothic architecture in Italy. The construction began as early as 1386, but was not fully completed until the 19th century, which also means that the Cathedral is characterized by several different styles. Also rewarded anyone who can put up the stairs with a spectacular view over the city.

Letters to God

Little Jonny came into the kitchen where his MOM stood and cooked dinner. His birthday was a few days ago and he thought it was a good opportunity to talk about what he wanted. "-Mommy, I want a bike when I fill the year.Little Jonny was a bit of a tubble maker. He had been in trouble both at home and at school. The mother asked whether Jonny thought he deserved a few gifts. Of course thought Jonny. Jonnys mum who was a Christian woman felt that he would review his behaviour over the past year and then write a letter to God and to explain why he thought he deserved a bike. Jonny ran up the stairs to his room and sat down to write a letter to God. "Dear God, I have been a very nice boy this year, and would like to have a bike when I fill the year. A red. Your friend Jonny. "Jonny knew he had not been honest, he had not been really nice this past year. So he threw the letter and started on a new one. "Dear God, this is your friend, Jonny, I've been pretty kind this year and would like to have a red bike in the gift when I fill the year. Thanks in advance Jonny. "Jonny knew he still had not been honest so he threw up the letter and started again: "Dear God, I've been a good boy this year and I really want to have a red bike for my birthday. Your friend Jonny. "Jonny knew he would not be able to send this letter to God. Jonny felt very upset. He went back into the kitchen and said to his mother that he would go to church. Jonnys mum thought that her plan had worked for Jonny looked very sad.-came home just before dinner, "said the mother.Jonny went down the road to the Church and there he went up to the altar. He looked around to see if someone was there who could see him. He lifted up a statue of the Holy Mary, let the fast slide down inside the jacket and then ran out of the Church. He ran all the way home and well at home, so he immediately ran up to his room where he wrote a new letter to God. "I HAVE YOUR MOM. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN SO GIVE ME THE DAMN CYCLE! GREETINGS ... YOU KNOW WHO! "

Where are the best offpist skiing?

QUESTION:
I love to ski in the Woods and some of my best offpiståk was in Kicking Horse and In. Do you know of any other places in Canada which are of similar quality?
Jonas

ANSWER:Kootenayregionen in British Columbia, South of the Kicking Horse and In, has the deepest, the driest snow in the world. Ski resorts that Nelson's Whitewater (skiwhitewater.com), Rossland's Red Mountain (redresort.com) and Fernie's Alpine Resort (skifernie.com) are all excellent places to susa and make tracks in powder snow. In addition, all three a relaxed picket charm. Nearby are the Okanagan Valley, Big White (bigwhite.com) and Apex (apexresort.com) which is also the perfect powder skiing and plenty of snow. Big White is located a little more isolated, while the Apex is usually not as full of people.
Further West in BC is Whistler (whistlerblackcomb.com) is North America's largest ski resort. The resort is amazing popular thanks to its enormous lift system, while those who enjoy off-piste far from systems finds a high landscape glaciärterräng with frozen lakes, big wide open bowls and steep walls filled with powdery snow. Huts and shelters are available out there in the forests for those who want to stay overnight and leave again the next day. The area is also known for its helicopter skiing (canadianmountainholidays.com).
In the province of Alberta, not far from Kicking Horse, Lake Louise (skilouise.com), which has about 2,500 acres of peripheral walls and gorgeous forest clearings for off-piste adventure.

Life after death

An atheist was sitting next to a little girl on an airplane. He turned to her and said:

"Do you want to talk for a moment? The flight is quicker if you talk to anyone. "

The little girl, who has just begun to read a book representing the foreign man:

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Oh, I don't know, how about that there is no God, heaven, hell, life after death?" said ateisten

with an inventive smile.

"OK" to the girl: "it would be interesting to talk about it, but let me ask you a question first:

"A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass. Why horse pop lumps, the cow lefts big wet pups and deer small hard balls? "

Ateisten, obviously surprised at the little girl's intelligence, thought for a while and replied: "Hmm, no idea!"

The girl said at the time: "do you really qualified to talk about God, heaven and hell and life after death if you do not know a shit?"
