Top Ten Tips on How to Travel (in Peace!) with Your Baby or Toddler

July 2, 2009 |16:49 | Tips for Traveling  By : Team X

Top Ten Tips on How to Travel (in Peace!) with Your Baby or ToddlerIt's holiday season - the time of year that everyone looks forward to. But however excited you are about your impending trip, there is probably one aspect that you are less enthusiastic about - getting there. That's why gurgle has written a range of features with helpful tips on travelling with a baby, toddler or during pregnancy. With young children, it's fair to say that boredom is the enemy! Toddlers have very short attention spans, so it's important to bring lots of activities to keep them entertained when you're embarking on a long-haul flight. Boredom buster essentials include colouring and sticker books, pens and paper, a favourite book (or ten), healthy snacks and perhaps even a portable DVD player. There are also other ways in which you can help to prevent tantrums or hearing the inevitable 'Are we nearly there yet?' wail every 5 minutes:
Fly direct when possible; this will help to reduce your total travel time and means that you won't risk missing a connecting flight.

Sydney: Australian Hotel (2 Star Hotel)

July 1, 2009 |16:30 | Hotels  By : Team X

Sydney: Australian Hotel (2 Star Hotel)The Australian Hotel is easily one of the best pubs in The Rocks, with a fun, friendly and bustling atmosphere and the chance to drink both cold beer and fine wine and enjoy a great gourmet pizza. It also offers some of Sydney's best pub accommodation, with old-fashioned flourishes abounding.
Speaking of bounding, the neck-breaker stairs up to the rooms will test anyone with mobility issues, but it's certainly worth the climb and good preparation for the nearby BridgeClimb experience. There's a feeling reminiscent of the Bloomsbury aesthetic in some of the corners of this well-run boutique bolthole, which has 10 rooms and four share bathrooms (with original 1930s tilework). Bedrooms feature sleigh beds, cosy decor and minimal noise. In the light-filled breakfast/lounge room you'll find cushy sofas and the odd glimpse of the Harbour Bridge, but if you head upstairs you'll get even better views from the small but perfect rooftop terrace that almost lets you inhale the harbour and the neighbourhood's strong sense of history.

Sydney

June 30, 2009 |15:14 | Vacation Spots  By : Team X

SydneyThe Opera House and Harbour Bridge are the images that first strike our mind as we think of Australia. Sydney, the centre of Australia’s travel and tourism activities, houses these two popular landmarks. With pleasant blue skies throughout the year, Sydney is the best place for cruises, outdoor adventures like wildlife and ecological tours. The mellow sunshine cascading the beaches even in winters and the Blue Mountains make Sydney the most-opted of all places in Australia. A meeting place of East and West, Sydney is rich in culture with diverse and beautiful people, arts, religion, languages, and traditions. Exploring Sydney Harbour, the most beautiful natural harbour in the world, and a busy one, gives one a feel for this city. On the southern side of Circular Quay, the hub of Sydney Harbour, is situated Australia’s pride, the Opera House. On the northern part of the quay is The Rocks, which is the oldest part of Sydney. Another major highlight is Darling Harbour, the world's greatest waterfront destination, just a few minutes’ travel from central Sydney. The Sydney Aquarium, one of the largest in the world, the Australian National Maritime Museum, the Chinese Garden, the IMAX cinema, and the Powerhouse Museum are a few of the other spots here. Built from the shell of an old power station constructed in 1899-1902, the Powerhouse Museum is a "must visit" for those with a voracious appetite for knowledge and information.

California Dreaming

June 23, 2009 |12:14 | General | Vacation Spots  By : Team X

California-Dreaming

Californian property has gained a renewed worldwide dream appeal for overseas investors since the slump of the U.S. dollar has given them more buying power. While local American interest has stalled, mainly due to slumping property prices and the fall of the U.S. dollar, overseas investors are snapping up properties in California as if they were the latest fashion.

This latest trend has prompted many local Californian Realtors to switch advertising tactics and target foreigners instead. Buyers from countries such as Spain, Russia, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Brazil, China, Italy and Mexico have especially been active in acquiring their dream property in California.

The dream of sand, sea and eternal sunshine lures investors to take advantage of the great conversions while the going is good.

Australian-BeachesAustralian beaches are a great reason to call Australia the Lucky Country! Many beaches are long, wide and pristine. Some are quiet, secluded places where dolphins greet visitors. Others are exciting fishing spots to reel in the big ones. Here, rolling ground swells attract visitors to Australian surfing beaches the world over!

For sunny Queensland beaches, the Gold Coast's Surfers Paradise offers a glitzy nightlife and theme parks to entertain the kids. For infinitely sandy stretches of coastline, visit the Sunshine Coast or venture into the tropics of Far North Queensland.

New South Wales beaches are some of Australia's most famous. Byron Bay is where surf culture meets art colonies and World Heritage wonders. Byron's nearby Hunter Valley complements any beach holiday.
