Beautiful and expensive. If you want to splurge, go for it. You can scale down quite a bit and yet achieve the same results in my opinion. You won't be in your room much anyway if you want to explore the sights. Almost forgot, honeymoon. Scale down t...

And you call Club Med budget? I think not. Mega bucks. Cancun is usually the cheapest winter and summer destination provided you don't lavish yourself within a 4/5 star property. Cancun is now a commercial entreprise consisting of a zillion resorts l...

It's around, lurking under a rock waiting for discovery again. No really, SARS is still active in certain parts. Just don't hear about it too much. Influenza, AKA. Flu is the news of the hour.
