We flew our first flight on Air Tran and was pleasantly surprised. The rate was cheap so we decided to give them a chance. It was a straight one way down to Orlando and a one stop on the return. The seats come with XM Satellite radio and there was wifi on the plane. We did not take advantage of the wifi but the XM was pretty cool as they passed out headphones to each passenger. Everyone was courteous there was a $15 per bag fee but the carry on rules were not very strict. We were provided a snack and a drink on all three flights and the planes were clean and new. The biggest problem we had seen is due to the fact they are a new carrier, they do not have choice spots in the hub. The Logan terminal is placed in one of the oldest building at the airport and is maze shaped with left and rights to get to the gate. In Orlando they are on the very end of the building so it is a long walk/tram ride to get to the front of the airport to ground transportation. We had three great flights as far as flights go and we would fly AirTran again, we paid $650 for our four round trip tickets to Orlando.
We do not have to tell you how great Times Square in New York is, it has been written, sung, and danced on paper, film and music. We do want to say that there is no more feeling of electricity then standing in Times Square among the lights, people, and hustle of the city. It is not about the stores, the tables in the square, the bleachers, the big ball the looms over the square all year, all those things are part of it though. The whole thing makes you stand back and just want to take it all in. You have seen it on TV thousands of time, but standing there you realize just how impressive standing there can be. This is truly one of the greatest places on the earth because when you are there you are in a place everyone knows. This is not a local thing Times Square is a world wide known place of destination. This is the same feeling that must be had at the Eiffel Tower or Big Ben, these places that are landmarks, known by everyone around the world. We recommend everyone at some point get to Manhattan, get to Times Square and go with the idea to do nothing. Just get there and stand amongst the hustle and bustle and soak it all in. Then go back again at night as it is two different worlds and the lights make the Square come alive. Tea512 puts Times Square as one of the top ten destinations you must see in your lifetime.

We have been following the news about the Joey Houssian story. He is the owner of the Sled dog Company that has been all over the news. Houssian reported that did not know the scale and the manner of slaughter of 100 sled dogs. The story has become even stranger as an unidentified man who said he had killed up to 100 sled dogs filled out workers’ compensation forms as both the employee and the employer, leaving Outdoor Adventures Whistler which has the president confused. Houssian, is the 34-year-old son of Intrawest Corp. founder Joe Houssian, said he first learned the dogs had been killed on Jan. 29, when an e-mail from a member of the media was forwarded to him. The e-mail included a WorkSafeBC ruling that said the former general manager of Outdoor Adventures’ sled-dog business had admitted to shooting or stabbing at least 70 animals last April. The man in question, Robert Fawcett, has not conducted any interviews since news of the cull broke. This happened because there was a decline in tourism over after the Olympics. Houssian, who has owned Outdoor Adventures for nearly a decade, said he had no idea the dogs would be killed in such a brutal manner. He was told 50 dogs would be culled, all of them old, sick or not adoptable. The SPCA is continuing its investigation and is being assisted by the RCMP.

The cold weather on the east coast is getting us down. It started too early and has been cold since November.

We have never been on one of these all inclusive resort vacations but here from friends and family that it is the way to go. They have a term “super-inclusive” which means all your meals, drinks and entertainment is included. This means a variety of land and water sports, with professional instruction are included and tipping is never permitted. We need to get the whole family away as we do not have anyone who can take the kids. We feel bad they will lose some school but it is offset by the fact we can swim in the crystal blue waters of Jamaica in winter. The call the place we are looking into a tropical playground. The place is filled with quiet coves, endless beaches and shady hammocks around every corner. Sounds perfect as it is only about an hour away from the city of Montego Bay, Breezes Runaway Bay Resort & Golf Club is one of the world’s truly great escapes. We would like to try a skim across the crystal blue Caribbean on a catamaran cruise. The whole point of the vacation though is to get away from the cold and spend the day in a comfortable lounge chair while the warm, tropical sun dissolves your stress like the ice in a Piña Colada. When we started to plan there are many sites that offer Jamaica vacations but we stopped at Breezes.com because even the name sounds relaxing.

Washington’s secretary said after leaving the falls of the Passaic, we passed through fertile country to a place called Paramus. We stopped at a Mrs. Watkins’, whose house was marked for headquarters. But the General, receiving a note of invitation from a Mrs. Provost to make her hermitage, as it was called, the seat of his stay while at Paramus.
