On Location with Iconic Californian Movies

December 8, 2008 by HostelBookersLeave a Comment

Head to the Golden State and stand on the corner with Douglas, have a drink with Crowe and go to jail with Spacey. One of the great motivators of sightseeing in America is finding a little street downtown or a log cabin upstate where a great movie was once filmed. Having your picture taken at a setting that once lent itself to an iconic movie scene is something that you can keep forever! Here's a look at some of the locations from popular … [Read more...]

Rajjaprabha Dam, Thailand – October 2008

October 1, 2008 by DaveLeave a Comment

Rajjaprabha Dam Thailand - Most tourists who visit the Surat Thani area of Central Thailand are stopping over on their way to the island of Koh Samui. However if you find yourself in this area one attraction you should not miss is the Rajjaprabha Dam (also called Chieo Lan Dam). It is secluded and undiscovered by tourists. Huge limestone rocks and islands rise from its waters similar to what is found in Halong Bay in Vietnam and several water … [Read more...]

Trip to Cameron Highlands

September 30, 2007 by Teh Chin LiangLeave a Comment

We had an 'early' year end team building function this year as Nikki our supervisor was going to leave Agilent in the beginning of August. Due to budgetary constraints we only had one weekend to spend so we chose Cameron Highlands as our destination. Nikki assigned Yee Kee and Sherry to organize that trip and they were doing a pretty good job of getting everything prepared before we boarded the bus heading for Malaysia's premier highlands … [Read more...]

Asian Affair: Sizzling Singapore and Vibrant Vietnam

September 17, 2006 by Suzy DavisLeave a Comment

I've always loved aircrafts and long haul flights. We boarded award winning Singapore Airlines in LAX with about 30 hours of travel time ahead of us. With 8 magazines, 6 movies, 4 meals and a sleeping pill, the time went quickly and I arrived relaxed and ready to explore. American airports are not very people friendly. Singapore's ultra-modern airport invites you to linger with free internet terminals, a cinema, rooftop swimming pool, … [Read more...]

Its a Long Way to Tipperary

February 22, 2006 by Kent WaddingtonLeave a Comment

I was planning a solo trek through Iceland when my Father decided to invite himself along on my vacation. He further changed my mind and decided we were going to Ireland, a country he had wanted to see for quite some time. Being the ever-obedient son I gave in. With destination chosen, the hard part was going to be trying to figure out the logistics of creating a travel experience both of us would enjoy. This trip had to be as stress … [Read more...]

Niagara Falls–Is it Worth the Trip

February 10, 2006 by Lila KahnLeave a Comment

niagra-falls

For years Niagara Falls has been one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States and Canada. Visitors from abroad and North America cannot seem to shake their desire to visit this dramatic aquatic spectacle. But why exactly? The falls are not particularly convenient to any major U.S. city (apologies to Buffalo), which means visitors to the US will need at least two days to fit in a visit to Niagara. Furthermore besides the … [Read more...]
