Miami Florida- Frisky Style
In the words of the great Will Smith, “Welcome to Miami…” where people really do party “all night on the beach ‘til the break of dawn.” As the sun gloriously beats down, the streets are lined with so many al fresco diners and strolling locals that you start to wonder if anyone actually works in this town. But really, how can they? With its tropical climate, gorgeous inhabitants, fiery cuisine and – Will would be amiss if we didn’t mention them – white-sand beaches, it’s no wonder why Miami clocks in as America’s sexiest city. So grab your sunscreen (extra SPF here!) and hang on while The Frisky shows you how to get a taste of the real Miami heat with these sizzlin’ South Florida hot spots. In the words of the great Will Smith, “Welcome to Miami…” where people really do party “all night on the beach ‘til the break of dawn.... more

Across the Pond - DanTraveling in England?
Higher Res Version here
http://www.lonelyplanet.tv/Clip.aspx?...
This international collaboration would not have been possible without the wonderful generosity of Anthony Padbury, his fiancee, Dominika and the terrific people at the Goathland website (Andy).
Thank You so much, it was a great deal of fun for me to do this small clip from across the pond, and having been a child before there were even digital watches makes it magical.
Dan
Goathland is a village in the North York Moors national park, England. It is due north of Pickering, off the A169 to Whitby. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery, and has the advantage of having a station on the North Yorkshire Moors steam railway line North Yorkshire Moors Railway. It is a private charitable trust with a number of paid staff but mostly operated by volunteers, running nearly all the year including at Christmas. It carries upwards of 250,000 passengers a year and is the second-longest preserved line in Britain. It links Grosmont in the north with Pickering in the south. It follows the route of the 19th century line that originally connected to Whitby; from the spring of 2007 some trains on the railway are timetabled to run all the way to Whitby. Goathland station has also been used as the location for Hogsmeade railway station in the Harry Potter films, and the line was filmed for Harry's journey.

Top Tourist Spots Americans Can’t Visit
Looking for someplace special to spend the Fourth of July? FP investigates five fabulous destinations where a summer getaway is next to impossible.
Mount Kumgang, Kumgangsan Tourist Region
Location: North Korea’s east coast : Why you should go: It’s an unspoiled spiritual retreat. Mount Kumgang and the surrounding area feature exquisite natural beauty, a famous Zen monastery, and challenging trails for hiking enthusiasts. Nearby Kuryong Falls plunges 242 feet before crashing into a series of lagoons below.Why you can’t: Because it’s almost impossible. Americans can acquire visas for North Korea, but the only access points are through China and South Korea.U.S. Embassy and Consulate aren’t going to be of much help if you get into trouble with the Stalinist regime’s notorious secret police
Baracoa
Location: Cuba’s eastern tip ;Why you should go: Baracoa is Cuba’s oldest settlement, founded in 1511 by Spanish conquistadors, and is believed to be near where Christopher Columbus first landed in 1492. Important archaeological sites dot the area, and nearby caves provide visitors an opportunity to view pictographs and ceramic remains of Native American tribes that inhabited the island when Europeans first arrived. Large forts, built in the 18th century to repel pirate attacks, provide breathtaking views of the bay and surrounding forests:Why you can’t: Because it is impossible. For a host of reasons—some of which have the last name Castro—U.S. tourist travel to Cuba is thoroughly restricted. Even travel to Cuba through a third country, such as Mexico or Canada, is technically illegal, and violators can face prosecution and a hefty fine of up to $65,000 upon return to the United States.
Mogadishu’s Beaches
Location: Somalia’s east coast :Why you should go: The beaches that separate Mogadishu from the Indian Ocean rank among the most beautiful stretches of sand in the world, say many of the very few Western travelers who ever venture there. Coral reefs teeming with fish are easily accessible from the shore (although tourists pursuing aquatic leisure should leave all valuables at home in case their boat is hijacked by pirates). Back in Mogadishu, visitors can find virtually anything in the city’s outdoor markets—except peace of mind.Why you can’t: Because a good day in Somalia is the worst day of your life almost anywhere else. The constant state of anarchy, lawlessness, and piracy is usually enough to deter most folks from traveling to Somalia, the world’s third most failed state, according to the 2007 Failed States Index Looking for someplace special to spend the Fourth of July?

Staycations...because we can't afford to travel anymore...
About 1.3 percent fewer Americans are expected to fly this summer than last summer, according to the Air Transport Association.
And for the first time since the economic shock after the September 11 attacks, Americans were projected to drive less over Memorial Day weekend, the traditional kickoff of the summer travel season.
AAA Vice President Mark Brown says the slowing economy and high fuel prices "have pushed some Americans to what we call the traveling tipping point. It's clear that a small number of us may choose to stay home ... and relax with friends and family rather than take a vacation."
~~~~~~~~
I think this is a good way to say "um...no" to the higher gas prices and the ways that airlines are screwing us over with prices and fees...at the same time, it's kind of sad. Almost everywhere in the world is open to all of the worlds citizens to travel and explore...but we can't afford to do so anymore...
will you be staying home and entertaining yourself? or will you travel dispite the prices? About 1.3 percent fewer Americans are expected to fly this summer than last summer, according to the Air Transport Association. ... more -
