Travel - 4 September 2007

My fiance is getting ready to move for a year to Memphis, Tenessee for a job and we've heard nothing but bad things about it! Can anyone tell me--is it really that bad? Crime-wise, etc.? Also, after looking at the stats--the city is mostly black with a lot of white. I've heard people are really racist there--"blacks don't like whites, and whites don't like blacks, and they don't like interracial relationships"

My fiance is biracial--will he have problems? He will probably be moving to the 38115 or 38141 zip codes if that helps.

Thank you!

Like the Angeles National Forest. It's not a forest. It's filled with shrub, rocks, dried sand. It's ugly. Trees in southern california are ugly. you have to go to northern california to see those beautiful redwoods.

I will be relocating to San Diego and I am looking for a safe, fairly updated apt for me and my son not too far from the Children's Hospital. I am not familiar with the safer neighborhoods (if there is such a thing nowadays) or how far away is too far with traffic and such. Any help is appreciated as I am coming from overseas. Thanks in advance.

Some hotels ihave looked at say you have to be 21 to check in to the hotel. So i ask, is there a hotel that you can be younger and how old do you have to be to gamble? I thought it was 18.

My family is planning our first trip to Europe, and due to all our various schedules we can only fit in 2 weeks for the trip. The countries we all want to visit the most are Spain, France, S. Germany, Switzerland, and Italy. We plan on spending the bulk of our time in Italy and mostly just want to pass through the other countries to see some major sites and natural beauty; like 1 or 2 nights per country and then visit several Italian cities. Is it at all possible to visit all those places in only 2 weeks? If so, what is the best mode of transportation? I know most say the train, but I've also heard about bus transportation... anyone know anything about that?
I'm thinking we should fly into Madrid, then travel to Paris, then down to Munich, then through Switzerland to Venice, then Rome, Florence, Positano, and Pompeii, then travel up through S. France to Barcelona, up to Madrid and fly back... that sounds like a lot... is it possible?
If not, any suggestions on how to narrow it down?

They are called "tennis shoes" not rubber shoes. Rubber shoes are those flimsy little flip flops that americans wear in the shower and filipinos wear everywhere, including playing basketball. Try to remember this in case someone asks you "what the heck is rubber shoes?"

The way westerners sometimes use astrological signs to show personality type? In the write-ups on Japanese characters in Anime, etc. the blood type is often given, but no explanation as to what it is supposed to "mean"... is there a website somewhere that explains this? Help!

This is definately spur of the moment and have just recieved my passport-I'm a little anxious to finally travel!! My question is, I've heard you have to have your passport at least 3 monthes before you can travel to New Zealand. So, I'm a little dissapointed because I wanted to go in about a 3 weeks. Is this true? If so, is there any way around this? Thanks so much
