Major Phuket, Thailand Hotels and Information That You Can Use

Phuket, Thailand's largest island is an extremely popular travel destination among those that like to add a lot of adventure to their lives and explore truly exotic destinations. The high season is from December to May but I would recommend taking advantage of it's low and shoulder seasons. May to October is considered to be the 'cool' season. Since their cool season is similar to Florida's summer weather, reaching temperatures of about 25-35 C, I would say that is just about perfect!

You can take advantage of not only the weather but of great deals because of traveling during this time. While you will probably be witness to short periods of thunderstorms and rain that generally happen in the evenings, your days will be filled with sunshine and fantastic temps to actually enjoy that time in the sun!

English is widely spoken in Phuket because it is so popular for tourists, all the same though, it's always nice for a local to hear you try to speak a little Thai, even if it's only to say thank you, which is, Khorb Koon!

We have an awesome selection of major Phuket, Thailand hotels that you definitely want to check out! Starting at just $48 a night, you can be living a life of luxury right on the beach. The next coming months are great times to take advantage of the shoulder season. Just monitor the weather, make sure you're not planning a time when a Monsoon may be arising. You can always check out travel advisories for both weather and also any terrorist threats which unfortunately, is now an issue for many areas of our world, including Thailand.

My personal stance is always to be aware of the current and potential future of a destination but I myself refuse to stop travel and experiencing the world because of terrorist threats. I believe in a sense that is letting them win. Always be aware and exercise caution and you yourself can decide if a destination is safe for you at your desired time of travel.

Edmonton Summer Events and What's Coming Up!

Edmonton certainly doesn't have a shortage for things to do or upcoming events, especially at this time of year! We've got just about everything and anything that you can imagine going on, so much, that we just can't possibly make it to all the Edmonton summer events but we can sure try! ;)

Just this month alone, we have the Edmonton International Street Performer's festival, the FIFA U-20 World Cup, A Taste of Edmonton, Capitol Ex, the Grand Prix of Edmonton and this is just a listing of the 'major' festivals of events...we've also got the Edmonton Eskimos for some CFL action or how about a Pirate and Wench Night onboard Edmonton's famous Queen Mary Riverboat tours?!

There's so much more and even more going on next month! So whether you live in Edmonton and you're thinking that you can't get away for a vacay, that's ok because you don't actually need to go away to have a blast here! And if you're here for a visit, you're just going to fall in love with everything going on, it's infectious if you let it be!

I'm going to give you guys a website that I found for all of the Edmonton events because I was getting frustrated having to go from site to site looking for what I needed, so this site has every event imaginable listed and has direct links for each Edmonton summer event. This is very useful, especially when you're looking for just one specific thing! The page itself is extremely long but what else could you expect from a city that just has so much to offer going on??

Go check it out because when I went through it, I saw all these things that we'd like to do that I didn't even know were there! In fact, I'm going to run now because there are tickets that I need to go and book!


Also, if you're a first time visitor, then make sure to check out Eddie the Bus and here's your West Edmonton Mall Cosmo Super Pass!

Vancouver is absolutely a bustling cosmopolitan city and is the 2nd busiest port on the pacific coast. It is one of the most expensive places in Canada, yet it is just stunning.

There's a never-ending list of Vancouver scenic attractions, the architecture that the city itself has to offer is incredible. That's not to mention the boat tours, whale watching, lounging on spectacular beaches, hiking and eating in world-renowned restaurants.

Vancouver is an amazing city with a lot to offer it's visitor's. How do you do it for dirt cheap?

For Your Great Summer Trip This Year, Go With Seattle Land and Water Tours

Seattle is a cool city to visit! It just has SO much to offer. I mean it's a big and metropolitan city, that's a given but there's so much more. It has that West Coast vibe to it, you know...that laid back, good and friendly one; with it comes the art, music and cultural scene, fabulous restaurants, fantastic entertainment but it's so lucky because it has even more than that.

It's a coastal city too. There's boats and ferries, beautiful waterfronts and great people. To boot, it's has islands to visit on one side and on the other side, it's got the mountains! Seriously, this is a rockin' city to visit! In fact, that's just what Jason and I are doing. We're going and we're going to take advantage of all kinds of Seattle land and water tours.

The first thing we're getting is the Go Seattle Card, it's an all-inclusive visitor's pass that's getting us free entry to over 30 different attractions and tours. We're going to go on a harbour cruise and on one in Kirkland. We'll see the Space Needle, go to Six Flags Wild Waves, visit some museums and just go exploring! The pass is pretty cool because we're paying just one price for it and then we don't have to worry about what we're going to do because we've got everything right there, which is awesome and it comes with a guide book, so we're set!

Another thing that we're going to check out is Mount Rainier. It's peak is more than 14 000 feet tall and on clear days, you can see Mt. Rainier right from downtown! It's going to be an awesome time, Seattle makes a perfect summer trip, we get a little bit of everything!
