Travel - 26 June 2007

I love where I live but it is year-round tourist central, there are no quiet days and everything is always crowded with people who generally haven't got a clue. It's alright during the year as I'm holed up in the office anyways but the next two months are going to be ten times worse, no matter if it's shops or musea or parks, everything is chock-full of tourists.
How do I enjoy my otherwise great city or do I move to outer-Mongolia?

I am a Canadian citizen living in the UK. I do not seem to have a eligible guarantor to sign my passport application. What are the other options in this circumstance. Also I do not have a Canadian id card nor any other Canadian state issued documents, except my birth certificate. Will I be able to use my UK issued driving license as another proof of identity, or does it have to be issued by a Candain authority?

I have three of my friends from Germany coming for three weeks and we live on the East coast (PA). They want to take a trip to NYC, but what do you think three German 18-year-olds would enjoy most about our home here? Any ideas for activities?

If so, how long is the wait? Also, if you did have an appointment, was it still a long wait?

Even 15 minutes would be helpful. What about late check-ins, or phone-in check-ins?

The angelic voice of Fayrooz, to me, is synonymous with Lebanon. I can't think of one without the other,and I equally love both. This is a tribute to Lebanon, may God help you all out there.

This place, (kc) has taken its toll on me. I am young, just turned 21 two months ago, and think I would be better suited in Flordia. I dont know many people down there, but Ive heard that night life is amazing. I would plan on getting a job as a bartender to pay the bills, and contuine my education at a community college down there. Any advice you have about moving, location, weather, traffic or anything else about Flordia would be aprreicated!! I would love to find a small place on the beach, but I doubt that would happen. I was thinking about Palm Beach or Boca. Miami might be a little crowded for my taste. Any help or thoughts???? Thanks so much!

The fighting between your army and the fatah al islam group was declared as a victory few days ago, and somehow bullets are still exchanged, and more people dying and more casualties. So what is it, is this a case of Victory or another bad communication by your elite commanders?
Are your politicians and government personnel so clueless to a point of no return?

i'm going backpacking round europe this summer and am planning on taking £100 worth of euros in cash and my debit card for backup. as it's safer to take travellers cheques i'm planning on taking the rest of my money in these so i was wondering 1) is it best to take sterling/euro travellers cheques?
2) how exactly do travellers cheques work as i've never used them before. because how can i use sterling cheques in a foreign country??

And vice-versa? I know that Lebanon can't go back to Lebanon if they have been to Israel, but what about the Palestinian territories? Can you visit Gaza and the West Bank?

My Lebanese friends call me 'amboora' all the time.
When I ask them what it means, they jiggle.
Now, seriously, what does it mean?

Hi,
We live in Florida and we always can just get one hotel room (2 queen beds) for 5 persons when we vacation. We do online reservation and we just enter 2 adults+ 2 kids (instead of 3 kids) . When we get to the reserved hotel, there is no problem even though they see 5 of us. How strict is New York hotels? Can we reserve for just one room or we have to get two rooms? By the way, any recommended for a decent midtown Mahattan hotels? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
