Travel (General) - August 2007

My family and I are planning a weekend getaway (4 days) and are looking for the best way to transport and keep food for the weekend. I don't want to keep frozen food frozen - I would like to keep cold food cold.

Is dry ice a good way to go? We'll be staying in a hotel but won't have a refrigerator. I'd like to avoid using ice since it melts and needs to be replenished. We can buy dry ice at our local grocery store, but I want to make sure I'm using it correctly and plan accordingly.

Thanks so much!

Hi, I just heard about this website through tripadvisor.com. Some of the deals seem WAAAAY too good to be true so I wanted to hear some real-life stories. Does anyone have any experience with skyauction.com?

hey at all,

I am back in Berlin. As you all now I visit my friend Peter in New York for two weeks. I had an awesome time there full of fun and adventure. After my endless journey by plan which took me more than 13 hours I finally arrived on friday afternoon. Peter actually wanted me to join him at party of one of his friend but I had a huge jetlag. I was so tired you guys cannot even imagine. But after a long sleep Peter showed me some realy exiting sightseeings. We visit the freiheitsstatur and the broodway. He showed me the whole city. Especially I liked little Italy. The people are so friendly and open. I bought a lot of new things there e.g. a gucci bag for only 30 euro.But guys do not tell anyone that this is a faked one. I saw so much imasing places and meet a lot of interesting people in New York. I really would love to go there again next holidays.But there was one thing I could not handle. You cannot imagine how much people there live.Everyone is always busy and everywhere you look are millions of people. This was defently to much for me. but apart from that I love this city. And the coolest thing was that there are people from all over the world. I met people from spain, italy, china, brasil etc. .Nearly all the people were very nice and chilled. Hopefully I have the possibility to live there sometime. New York has a lot of different faces and is very multinational town. I thing this is one thing I liked at most.

I am looking to meeting you guys tonight. I have to tell you so much more.

Greetings

I know black is good. Black pants, black shoes, black skirts, black sweaters. and scarves. I got that. What about khakis? I have a blue and khaki pair of chinos from J. Crew. And for clubbing tops? Jean skirts? I have an aqua northface fleece and an aqua marmot ski jacket too that I'm wondering if I should bring.

It's a yorkshire, 5 lbs. He'll be in the cabin for sure. But I don't know if I have to make a reservation for him. I bought the tickets online, so i couldn't make a reservation on the website.

I am looking for a book that has several pictures of things (people, places, food/drinks etc.) that can be used to avoid having to translate the word you are thinking of; while in a foreign country. I heard of a book like this on the news once, if you know what I'm talking about, please help me find a website where I can purchase one. thank you : )

Hey I was wondering when Passports will be needed to enter Canada by car. I heard that it will be mandatory in Jan of '08...but I also heard that they are extending it. I know we don't need one now because I just got back from Canada today. I am asking because I might go in March or April. Thanks!

I notice the Intnl Airport is close to the city, and would like to maybe take a ride around town for a couple of hours. Any ideas of a 'must see' in that short time, Thanks.

I've met many foreigners but personally i'd say the germans are the friendliest as those I know are a really warm bunch. Who would u vote for?
