November 24, 2015 by Rob FLeave a Comment

While it’s fun to gather around with friends and family to watch New Year’s celebrations on television and countdown to your timezone’s entry into the New Year, some people like to take it to the next level. There are several amazing places to enjoy the ringing in of the New Year and it just so happens that JustFly’s list of top holiday destinations includes many of them. I decided to take a look at my favourite places to celebrate the New Year … [Read more...]

Relax in Conejo Valley: Food, Wine, Microbrews & the Outdoors

November 21, 2015 by DaveLeave a Comment

Conejo Valley is located about 45 minutes north of Los Angeles; due to its proximity, this region makes for an ideal weekend getaway from Los Angeles. You are not dealing with a confusing artery of multiple freeways - there is one main freeway that goes through the valley, the 101 and to a lesser extent, the 23. Conejo Valley encompasses four communities, Agoura Hills, Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks and Newbury Park spread out along this part of … [Read more...]

LAX is Happening!

November 10, 2015 by Dave6 Comments

I frequently use LAX for connecting to domestic flights and it is often my International hub. I even have LAX written on my license plate! Over the past few years I've been watching the airport change ... in a good way. The architectural 'waves' of Tom Bradley International Terminal are now as nearly iconic as the Theme Building (which housed the former Encounter Restaurant). LAX is growing - it is now the 5th busiest airport by volume in the … [Read more...]

Ridiculously Awesome Travel Tips For a 7 Day Trip to Antalya

October 1, 2015 by Anam NabilLeave a Comment

This is the sequel to my first post and this one is all about my stay in Antalya. Our trip to Turkey was two weeks long; eight days were spent in Antalya and six days in Istanbul. Although we initially planed to go to Cappadocia, Fethiye and Pamukkale, ultimately we weren't up for all the extra travel and hassle. If you have the time and energy to do so, than definitely check these places out as they are often a part of visitor's typical … [Read more...]

Taking Advantage of Bright Sun in Belfast Before the Rain Sets In

September 21, 2015 by DaveLeave a Comment

Upon landing in Belfast, Northern Ireland (or as some might say, 'Nord Iron') I was pleasantly surprised to see some sun peeking through the clouds. Coming from bright sunny days in Spain this past week with warm temperatures I had braced myself for brisk cloudy days and bone chilling nights. I felt welcomed on the bus ride into town; a gentleman facing me in another seat kept smiling my way - talking to the lady he was with and nodding in my … [Read more...]

Pittsburgh: Land of Celebrities

August 14, 2015 by Marianne RuaneLeave a Comment

I am a self-acknowledged history nerd with a film degree. I had no idea that Pittsburgh had an abundance of sites covering my two big interests - colonial and current celebrities. Mostly I am interested in the places celebrities were - so that I can stand in, sit on, or touch the same spot. I imagine I am forging a connection that transcends space and time, that the celebrity's genius energy can infiltrate my own and affect it in a positive … [Read more...]

Star Searching, Celebrity House Spotting with Starline Tours, Hollywood

March 25, 2015 by DaveLeave a Comment

What better time to take a Starline guided tour of Hollywood and hunt for celebrity homes and celebrities than during the Academy Award weekend. Hollywood's epic event attracts a number of celebrities to town, parties and those looking to see celebrities. Sure Hollywood is more chaotic then usual - with part of Hollywood Blvd shut down in the vicinity of Dolby Theatre and the buzz about the event by most everyone who happens to be in the … [Read more...]
