Guide to New Orleans

Namashtè! We are heading to New Orleans in few days. We are glad that the hurricanes did not do considerable damage to the crescent city, so our schedule does not change. We had been to New Orleans a few times but we are not yet so familiar with the whole city so of course we rely on maps and guides. I found this cute widget online I would like to share. A guide to New Orleans, interactive city map and photos, with review links for sights and attractions, restaurants, bars and more…

Vacation package to Tahiti

Our second wedding anniversary is getting closer now; and we are set for a vacation. Where do you think is the best place to go? We want somewhere romantic, of course, and since it will be on our wedding anniversary, I want it so special, to be in a paradise. Do you know that there is a place called the Island of Love? That is where the romance and honeymoon happen, not just with our special someone but with nature too. It is Tahiti, in the famous Bora Bora and other exquisite islands of French Polynesia.

Tahiti tourismI have been looking for information about the easy way to Tahiti for a Bora Bora holidays and vacation in the islands. I know that in organizing vacations like this, it is always better to deal with local agents from the place. They can always provide support and accommodate our concerns because they have the local knowledge advantage and the best vacation deals. Bora Bora is a major tourism place in Tahiti and staying in Bora Bora hotel just in front of the beautiful lagoons and beaches cannot be more inviting for relaxation Tahiti beach and accommodation. We have flown with different airlines but now we can fly to the island paradise by Air Tahiti for cheap fares. Everything is exotic. The pristine white sand beaches, ecology, geological diversity and colorful history of Bora Bora and the whole island group of Tahiti are an attraction in themselves, and especially their black pearl farming. It will make a perfect wedding anniversary gift.

Laughing gull

In South Padre Island you will find many lovely bird species. One of them is called the Laughing Gull. Why the “Laughing” name? I also wondered. The Laughing Gull’s English name is derived from its raucous kee-agh call, which sounds like a high pitched laugh “ha… ha… ha…”.

Here is a video of the laughing gull with its laughing call.
