Oktoberfest Is A Beer Celebration That Gets Munich's Festival Mood On

By Jordan Ebor


Beer is something to be really enjoyed and celebrated. When I have a really good beer, then I cannot wait to down it and try the next one just as good. Everyone I know says that I love to party and get out and dance 'til my feet go numb. So where can I do all this? Beerfest! Which is more commonly known as the Oktoberfest in Munich.

This gigantic festival celebrating beer is held in Munich every year commencing in September. One thing I have to warn you about though, Munich is so crowded during Oktoberfest that getting there and actually sitting at a table inside a beer hall can take longer than you expected. If you're going to go to Oktoberfest then you have to factor in that there will be huge crowds in Munich. I knew this before I went, so I got in line early on the opening day just to get ready for the Beerfest.

So what should you wear at Oktoberfest? Well the traditional Oktoberfest costume is a Dirndl dress for the girls and the Lederhosen for the guys. Both outfits are very traditional in Bavaria and you definitely will not look out of place at Oktoberfest if you rent or buy one these traditional costumes. They are sold throughout central Munich and cost somewhere between 80 and 300 Euros. If you want to look the part then make sure you look into getting a Dirndl or Lederhosen.

I stayed in a hotel that was a short walk to the Theresienwiese, which is the name of the area for the Oktoberfest grounds. Munich has plenty of accommodation options, but like anywhere if you want the cheapest price then you should book early. Hotel prices start from around 150Euro per night for a 3 night stay. If you're looking at saving a bit of money on the accommodation then you can also look at hostels and campgrounds.

Don't worry if you're staying a fair way away, as I highly recommended to use public transport, especially the Metro, which takes you right to the heart of the festival. A train comes ever 10 minutes or so and runs until 2am on weekends. We took the U4 line, but U5 gets you to same place.

One thing that I found straight away was that the people at Oktoberfest were really friendly and were always up for a chat. If you find yourself sitting with some locals you might find you could probably learn a thing or two about Munich or the Oktoberfest whilst you're there. I can highly recommend that if you are at Oktoberfest by yourself then just start up conversations with the people around you, everyone is there to have a great time and enjoy themselves.

I met a German couple at the Lowenbrau beer hall who told me one of the best Oktoberfest meals is the pork knuckle, which is pronounced Schweinshaxe in German. A pork knuckle is is basically a big shank or hock of pork. Pork is very popular at Oktoberfest I might add. Now of course it would not be a beer festival if I did not mention the beer and one thing you need to keep in mind is that Oktoberfest beer is one level stronger than normal beer and beer sizes come in a 1 liter glass stein. This is also called a Mass in German. So if you want one beer, remember "Ein Mass". A Mass costs around 9euro, but a tip is generally customary, so just give your server 10Euro and they will be back to serve you before you are done. After a few drinks I found myself singing drinking songs, knocking the table with my fists, dancing on tables and having so much fun with my new friends. The atmosphere in a beer hall is incredibly loud. Everybody is dancing, screaming and laughing all night long. I left the Oktoberfest when my beer hall, the Augistiner, closed at 10.30pm. The trip home in the Metro was quite fun though because the singing and dancing continued all the way back home!

I heard that there is plenty of companies that organise tours to the Oktoberfest. They are offering a place to sleep, sometimes with breakfast included, as well as transport to the festival ground. Apparently some even offer transport options in and out of the UK

All in all, everyone must celebrate beer once in his or her life and Oktoberfest should be a must on everyones to do list. However, I'm still waiting to meet my Beer Queen!

The Rio Carnival In Brazil Is An Amazing Festival

By Grace Charvin


Last year I spent a whole week in Rio De Janeiro for the Rio Carnival festival. I decided to go as a few of my friends went the year before and they said it was one of the best experiences they have ever had. So last year I decided to bite the bullet and head off come with them.

We all rented a big apartment, and yes it was more expensive as compared to what people might pay in a cheap hotel or hostel, but I think it was well worth the money. Because of the number of people who come to the city for the Rio Carnival celebration I recommend that you find and book your accommodation, whatever type you choose, as early as you possibly can. The general prices for accommodation is way over the top, but I guess you have to expect this when you're at one of the world's biggest festivals.

Whether is it hotel, hostel or apartment that is 2, 3 or even 5 stars then you are sure to find it in Rio De Janeiro. Most areas where the tourists go seem pretty safe. The apartment had some really friendly staff that helped us out with heaps of suggestions of stuff to do. The service was really amazing and I highly recommend getting an apartment. Being able to hang out with some friends in the apartment was a fantastic experience. It was so cool to do Rio Carnival with them all.

I was blown away by the Rio Carnival. There was street parties every day all over the city. We really got involved and soaked up the atmosphere. When you are among the hundreds of thousands of people, drinking and parting in the streets, day and night, it is hard not to love the Rio Carnival festival. Every person was out to get the most from the Rio Carnival and the atmosphere throughout the city was just one big party. My friends and I particularly enjoyed the samba dancing. We went along to watch and listen to the samba dancing at the Sambadrome one day. We had grandstand tickets and sat in Sector 9. I highly recommend this sector of the Sambadrome as we had a great view watching the samba school songs and dances. I have to say if you go to Rio Carnival then getting tickets to one of the events in the Sambadrome is well worth it. The experience was so much more than I expected.

Rio de Janeiro seemed pretty safe and I never felt insecure in this huge city, although admittedly we seemed to be in a bit of an upmarket area. I also have to say that we didn't really venture too far off the tourist track. The apartment we stayed in was next to a beach and we were always at the beach. We met and chatted to plenty of locals who seemed eager to help us out. We spent many days on Copacobana Beach, were hundreds of girls were virtually naked! There are plenty of high class hotels in Copacabana and Ipanema and at the beaches there was virtually everything you may wish to buy.

I really loved and enjoyed my stay in Rio De Janeiro for the Carnival. I think everyone should really consider getting to this amazing festival held in February or March every year.

Who Is Ready For The Mardi Gras In New Orleans

By Abby Cassinia


The New Orleans Mardi Gras is all about fun, excitement, celebrations and colorful costumes. What is much less known is that the event has religious significance and allows people in the christian world to indulge before the start of Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent.

The tradition of Mardi Gras comes from France where it has been celebrated for hundreds of years. The French explorer, Iberville, first landed near the site of the present-day New Orleans and gave the spot the name - Point du Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras fell out of favour in Louisiana at some point, but in 1823 it was re-introduced with parties and great merriment. Once the 20th Century commenced, the Mardi Gras was turning into the huge carnival as we know it today. The dancing in the street and revelry, accompanied by beautifully decorated horse drawn carriages and floats, is what everyone heads to the New Orleans Mardi Gras for.

The Mardi Gras in New Orleans these days is like no other festival around. Where else can you see French royals, showgirls dressed in feathers, painted clowns and bunnies parading the streets? In New Orleans during Mardi Gras season there is up to 350 floats and more than 15000 costumes being paraded each year, with some happening throughout the streets of New Orleans as early as 6 January. These gigantic floats, with performers performing outrageous tricks, marching bands aplenty and jazz music keeping everyone entertained.

Many famous traditions that are part of Mardi Gras today had their origins from years gone by and one such tradition occurred after a visit by the Russian duke Alexis Romanoff. The Romanoff's bought with them when they came to Mardi Gras their royal house colors of purple, green and gold, which stand for justice, faith and power. These three colours have now been adopted as the official colors of the Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Another tradition, which is seen as a big attraction at Mardi Gras, is the throwing of colorful bead necklaces, cups and toy coins from the floats, which people can take home as a souvenir. Many thousands of these are thrown to the crowd each year.

The Mardi Gras is just one big holiday in New Orleans and businesses and roads get shut down so that people can enjoy the excitement.

There are over 500,000 king cakes that are sold every year in this city between 6 January and Fat Tuesday and there are over 50,000 of these cakes that are shipped out of New Orleans on an overnight courier. You might find yourself nibbling on a cake, which includes a small plastic baby doll inside. If you find it, you are declared a king and you will be the one to buy the next cake!

The Mardi Gras season commences on the 6th of January each year. One of the traditions on this day involves a group called the Phunny Phorty Phellows, which contains about 50 men and women who ride in costumes in a decorated car along St Charles Avenue. The PPP blow loud trumpets, accompanied by a Dixieland band, and can often be seen eating the famous king cake and tossing it to people on the streets.

One can go on talking about the New Orleans Mardi Gras, but you have to be there to experience the magic. It is on the bucket list of things to do for millions of would-be travelers.

Boca Raton Florida Is A Safe City For All

By Jozy Mozen


Boca Raton Florida has an excellent reputation for being a safe city to live in. The police force and fire department work independently and together to assure the citizens that they can sleep without fear of personal and community disasters. They each have community ties and programs that work as partnerships and volunteer systems that keep crime at a minimum.

Both state and national crime rates are higher than you will find here. The violent crimes have been almost non-existent for over five years. Other aspects of these yearly reports will show a very low level of incidence when compared to other cities. Much of this success is attributed to the programs operated by police that involve community participation.

The extensive training given to the officers is a large contributing factor for the level of success enjoyed by the police department. Continued education is also a major part of their job description and helps keep them abreast of new techniques and equipment that is available to assist them. These two things combined with community response to specific programs provide very good results.

The police are involved on many levels with the community. They sponsor the Explorers who are teens who work with them on a civic level, the Volunteer program and the Viper Program. Most of these organizations are geared to teaching people to be aware of whom and what is around them at all times.

The Volunteer Forces are trained in various duties that help support the police in their jobs and the Viper program combines all of the technology and skills available with Community, other police agencies, local businesses and education to enhance the success of the mission. They have installed cameras on streets to help survey and identify trouble if it erupts.

The fire department also has community outreach programs to educate citizens about the hazards of careless fire practices. They visit schools, social groups and neighborhood meetings to educate people about smoke alarms in every bedroom and carbon monoxide alarms near heaters and stoves. They also conduct safety inspections at business locations and apartment complexes to insure public safety. They are also responsible for hazardous materials response and EMT services.

There are eight separate fire stations that cover the city. Response time is minimal and each has a non-transporting emergency medical vehicle with complete trauma units aboard. There are a total of nineteen EMS vehicles and seven of them are capable of transporting victims of accidents or illness. Each of the EMS units have two trained EMT personnel capable of saving a life when dispatched.

There are over four hundred police and fire personnel in this city whose job it is to maintain the safety of the citizens. They are highly trained and skilled in doing their jobs and through public cooperation the city has become a very safe home for the people they serve. The EMS teams as well as the VIPER teams work closely with groups and individuals to ensure the city stays safe for all.

By Juana Buchanan


Sun, sea and sand are the perfect ingredients for a relaxing vacation. Florida is one of the best places to find these ingredients aplenty. For break with a difference in the Sunshine State, though, leave the Florida Peninsula behind and head instead for the northwestern parts. Here you'll find Southern hospitality and charm in abundance and finding the perfect place to stay is easy too with the help of a Rosemary Beach cottage rental company.

Rosemary Beach is located in the Florida Panhandle. It lies on the Gulf Coast, in Walton County. Panama City Beach lies about 16 miles to the southeast and the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport in Panama City, FL is about 20 miles away.

The master planned community is relatively new, having been founded in the 1990s. However, its buildings and cobblestone streets give it the feel of a quaint historical Southern town. In the town center you'll find amenities such as shops and a post office to make a self-catering holiday here so much easier. With an extensive network of boardwalks and footpaths, the town is also a pedestrian-orientated place perfect for families.

Naturally the main reason to visit the quaint little seaside community is for the beach. This part of Florida is known as the Emerald Coast because of the green color of the ocean. The beaches here are spectacular, with the white sand seemingly stretching on forever. Water sports such as surfing and fishing are popular here.

Even away from the beachfront there is plenty to do. The many paths provide great walking opportunities and there is even a fitness trail with facilities for stretching exercises and strength training. Parks and green spaces are wonderful for a picnic and some ball games and often host live performances that will keep the little ones enthralled. Another way to delight the kids is to take them to the butterfly garden and let them walk among the fluttering creatures.

The surrounding area begs to be explored too. There are several conservation areas in this part of Florida, among them the Choctawatchee National Forest and the Gulf Islands National Seashore. If the city lights are calling, you'll be happy to know that the town is conveniently located near small cities such as Panama City and Destin. Here you'll find an array of restaurants, shopping precincts, entertainment facilities, golf courses, museums and services such as boat rentals and companies that can organize day trips for you.

Like most of Florida, the Emerald Coast is a wonderful destination to visit, no matter what time of year. The peak tourist season is during the summer months, when the weather tends to be humid and hot. More comfortable temperatures and humidity levels are found during late winter and spring and even in the coldest months, temperatures are usually mild and sunny.

There are several types of vacation rentals available in Rosemary Beach. For example, choose a flat or loft near the town center or stay in style in a carriage house. For the perfect family vacation, however, a cottage near the beachfront is a great option. Simply look online for available rentals, reviews and booking options.

The Thrills And Adventures In Pamplona For The Running Of The Bulls

By Grace Charvin


If there is one country that I really love spending time in then it has got to be Spain. This country, on the south western party of Europe, was the second most visited country in the world a few years back, so I know I am not alone for my love of the country. Spain has got everything I want in a vacation destination, a warm climate, beaches, entertainment hot spots, nightlife and exciting festivals.

Of the many festivals in Spain, it is the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona that pricks my interest the most. Apparently anyone over 18 can jump right in and take part. You just have to understand the few simple rules and abide by them.

I wasn't really sure before going to the Pamplona Running of the Bulls whether I would have the guts to actually run, but I thought I would look first and make my decision later. Nevertheless, it is something that I've always watched on TV and thought "This looks crazy!". Well once I made my mind up to go, I guess there was no going back, so when we booked the trip for the whole San Fermin festival between July 6 and July 14 I knew I would have to give it ago.

Almost every town and city across Spain holds a Bull Run festival each year. But there is only one world renowned Running of the Bulls and that occurs in Pamplona. I had a look at accommodation options during the San Fermin Festival and found that accommodation during this time can be really expensive. If you want to do things on a bit of a budget then I suggest you look at camping as there is quite a few tour operators that do Pamplona camping tours. The Pamplona tour companies plan everything for you, including transport, a place to sleep and quite often breakfast. A number of tour companies also have hotel tours and as I wasn't on a budget we booked into a hotel known as Gran Hotel La Perla. This hotel had a great location with a balcony that looked over the road where the running of the bulls occurred each morning.

The Running of the Bulls in Pamplona is a totally chaotic experience, some would say it is for the insane. I wanted to be insane just this once, envisioning the faces of friends and family back home when I relayed the events. One thing is for sure, my friend and I were intending to be part of the week long party and the ongoing flow of traditional sangria.

Anyway, there is heaps to do in Pamplona during San Fermin other than the Bull Run and parties start during the day go on throughout the night. There are lots of trendy little bars and restaurants for you to catch a bite during the Pamplona San Fermin Festival but tapas is perfect for snacks to keep you going any time during the day. Nobody can predict how events will turn out and this is the spice of the entire event. The running of the bulls takes place every day with each race lasting about three minutes and starts at 8am in the morning. There is different sorts of parades going on all throughout the day and fireworks happen every night around 11pm.

The answer I have to give when people ask me "So, did you actually run?" Is a blunt "Nope"! To be truthful I was horrified that people in the running of the bulls would simply just run over the top of people who had fallen in front of them and that really got me a scared. OK, yes I'm a chicken, but you should see the casualty report on TV when they do the run, some people were getting seriously hurt and not just from the hits from the bull! Just because I didn't run with the bulls doesn't mean I didn't have a fantastic time in Pamplona for San Fermin, as we still stayed the full seven days and enjoyed other parts of the festival immensely.

The San Fermin festival is brilliant to just walk around and soak up the atmosphere and hang out with the people, because everyone is there enjoying themselves and having a great time. The San Fermin Festival in Pamplona should be on every ones to do list. It is just so much fun.

We Received A Key West Wedding Invitation As A Message In A Bottle

By Peter Estenoz


Here's a unique and uplifting story to tell your grandchildren. An elderly couple in Florida received Key West wedding invitation as a message in a bottle. Walking on the beach one day on the east coast of Florida, the couple noticed a glass object freshly washed up on shore. The object contained inside an invitation addressed to "the lucky finder of this bottle... Plus one."

Needless to say, the couple were surprised, but they were enchanted by the romantic idea of sending an invite in such a way, as a message in a bottle. The date of the wedding was nearly a year away. At first, the couple was somewhat skeptical about the whole idea, but they seriously considered driving the six hundred miles on the day in question to attend the ceremony.

They did indeed attend the event a year later. It was held in the morning in a small chapel in Key West. The couple was happily welcomed by the bride and groom, and there was much smiling and shaking of hands and great amusement for all who heard the story. And everyone at the ceremony wanted to hear the story of the bottle where it was sent from and where it was found and who found it.

The invitation was apparently part of package deal that the marrying couple got from the company which printed and supplied their printed materials. The company advertised the service as a unique and exciting addition to the traditional invitation.

Several event planning companies and printers offer "message in a bottle wedding invitations" but they are usually meant as a novelty, not an actual message meant to be thrown into the ocean! They are usually addressed to specific people and sent to the recipients via traditional postage and packaging channels, UPS or FedEx.

The young engaged couple had a different idea which made their message in a bottle invites a little more than just a novelty.
