Why do you need travel insurance to travel to Cuba?

Well, if you only have US citizenship, you don’t need it. You don’t need it because you can’t go there.
If you’re passport comes from any other country then you need to get travel insurance or buy a legal policy when you arrive (careful, it can cost you up to $3/day). This new measure has been turned into a law in February, 2010 and it came into effect on May 1st, 2010.
Happy travels!

According to Yahoo! Travel, Taj Mahal should be the first place on your list. Because at the rate the monument is deteriorating due to pollution and a high traffic of visitors, the tourism officials are considering closing this 17th century monument.

Why go to Morey’s Piers?

If you are looking for a nice, fun gateway to a great Jersey Shore beach vacation then this is a place you should stop by. Here you could find the largest amusement piers in the world. With over 100 park rides and attractions, there will be something to make every one happy. You’ll be able to choose from games such as “fool the guesser”, hi-striker, softball pitch, ring toss, fortune wheel, darts, pool, and many more, along with a bunch of arcades and slot machines. You could keep winning points that can be redeemed for beach towels, toys, cd players, TVs, and more.

My favorite attractions are the waterparks. The Ocean Oasis waterpark is a little bit more adult oriented with amenities such as cabanas & huts, hammocks, massage therapy services, concierge service and more. Nevertheless it also has some great family activity programming. The children could play in the Bonsai Beach area while the adults could relax in the Water Lilies or take a plunge on the Shotgun Falls drop slides. There is something for everyone. The same thing can be said about the Raging Waters theme park. Shipwreck Shoals, Rocket Raft, Speed Slides, Fountain Pool, Sky ponds Journey, Rope Swing and many more. Don’t they all just spell “fun” to you? You will not want to go home. Unfortunately, your body will eventually get tiered.

If you’re looking for a hotel in order to have your entire vacation planned around Morey’s Piers, you could check out their website. They offer a variety of information on fun things to do in New Jersey such as dining, group events and of course in depth detail on their amusement rides and waterparks. If you need to find a place to stay, also check out their website as it is the best place to find hotels & motels in Wildwood.

Don’t forget that they have a sale that runs December 1 through January 9 on which you can save nearly 40% on a Season Pass to BOTH waterparks.

What does Hawai’i mean?

The question refers to the word Hawai’i (not the islands themselves). It is a Hawaiian word derived from Sawaiki, the believed Proto-Polynesian language. The word itself has a reconstructed meaning of “homeland”.
Of course, down the line the island group was perhaps named Hawaii for that reason, because to its settlers it became their new homeland, Hawai’i.

Why go see New York City?

There are a lot of things to do in New York. It is a metropolitan area filled with history, culture and joy of life. There are so many places to see that not even a week will be enough. So you should always concentrate on the main visiting spots. Obviously everyone heard of the Statue of Liberty, and trust me, it is worth seeing. It is quite a climb up to the top (I’ve had my share of climbing), but it is worth it once you get there. Same with the Empire State Building building, but you will be carried up there by an elevator instead. I remember when I first saw it I was amazed by this architectural monument. The view from the top is also fantastic. I had the craziest experience up there. Anyone, remember “Sleepless in Seattle”? Well, that morning I separated from my parents and just like in the movie, we met up there about an hour before closing time. Of course, I was not lost or as young as the boy from the movie, but still it was a nice story.
Anyhow, back to the Big Apple. You shouldn’t miss the Metropolitan Museum of Art. You can see thousand of years of history, all under one roof. From the Neolithic period until the American Revolution, from Greek art to modern art, there is something for everyone.
You should definitely go take a walk on the famous Broadway and maybe even catch one of their famous plays. Go take a stroll down Central Park, Little Italy, Chinatown, Times Square and many, many other beautiful and exciting places and cultural spots. If you want to catch your share of celebrities, go to the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.

P.S. If you are renting a car you could also drive to Boston (around 4 and 1/2 hours). On the same note as New York, there are plenty of things to do in Boston.
