While some people find it okay to make their own travel arrangements, others find it easier to find a good travel agent to do everything for them. Good travel agents are not that easy to come by. However, there are honest travel agencies that will make sure you get the most out of your trip. A good travel agent will do for you more things than you can do by yourself. They know the right people because of being in the business for long and they can get you the cheapest air tickets for your travels.

Dubai is a place where you can experience the complete and consummate mix of history, tradition, and modernism. A perfect example of this blend is the Dubai Dhow Cruise. Historically speaking, a Dhow is a boat, made of wood, which was used by the old fishing industry of Dubai. Gradually, as the city moved toward a modern way of living, Dhows ceased to exist - and as of now, the demand for dhows has gone down and been replaced by modern vessels.

I’ve often commented on the fact that having theme parks as our largest local employers adds to our local “magic” by allowing for greater ORLANDO to present performing arts events with Broadway quality cast-members and support teams. If you question the validity of that point, you have until September 16 to see the Garden Theatre’s (Winter Garden) presentation of the classic 1959 musical GYPSY as proof positive of the magnificent gifts presented to Central Florida by the performers and directors whose “day-job” is acting a role at a theme park.
