Starting to Feel Like Summer

I was suprised when I woke up this morning to find it cold outside. It has been pretty nice out lately. But, later on it quickly warmed up. Now it's kind of hot out. So, I'm going to take my niece to the water park soon. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor. So, I'll let you guys know how it was when I get back.

Where Is That Person Calling From?

I know I'm not the only one who has had this problem before. The phone rings, and you check to see who's calling, only to find a phone number that you don't recognize. Then they just keep calling and calling. You can use a cool service called the Reverse Cell Phone Lookup to find out whose calling you. You just type in the phone number, and you can find out where the call is coming from. The number doesn't even have to be listed. You can also take further action to stop these annoying phone calls by joining the National No Call Registry. This is a service I highly recommend. No one should have to be bothered at all hours of the day answering unsolicited phone calls. So, visit FindOutWhosCalling.com to help solve your phone worries.

Friday

It's Friday, and I want to get out and go somewhere. I think it would be nice to go shopping. I just quit my job of seven years, and want to relax a little before I start working again. The problem is that gas prices are so high, I would have to shop around this little bitty town that I'm in. Traveling is going to be quite expensive this year.

Back From Mexico

I just returned from Ciudad del Carmen in Mexico. I had the best time ever. The Island was very nice, and the people were so friendly. The weather was scorching hot, but I was able to handle that with some light clothing and air conditioner. I went to Playa Norte, (North Beach) and it was very nice. The water was perfect. This latest trip to Mexico, has been by far my favorite. So, I would recommend Ciudad Del Carmen as a great place to visit in Mexico.

My Journey To Mexico

I am leaving for Mexico early tomorrow morning. My route goes like this: Driving from East Texas to Austin. Fly from Austin to Houston, then from Houston to Mexico. Very interesting journey since my drive to Austin is longer than the flight to Houston. But, apparently, it's cheaper that way. Who would have thought?

Travel Well

The American Dollar has lost quite a bit of value lately. So when you are traveling, it's important to try to make the dollar go as far as it can, especially if you are changing currencies. So, when you are deciding where to go on vacation, try to pick a destination with an exchange rate in favor of the dollar.

Hilton Dallas Lincoln Centre

I stayed in the Hilton Dallas Lincoln Centre hotel not too long ago, and am happy to say that my stay was fantastic. They had some of the best customer service I had experienced at any other hotel. The property was beautiful with a water garden right next to the hotel. They also had a high tech work out facility, that was equipped with complimentary fruit and bottled water. The hot tub was also very nice. I was pleased with my stay, and highly recommend the hotel for anyone who will be in the Dallas area.

Green a Good Color for Google

I love to see so many people doing things to help our environment., so we can keep earth beautiful. I am not an environmentalist by any stretch of the imagination, but I also don't think we should trash it up either. So, I appreciate Google's commitment to helping the environment. They are going green which is great. Finding ways to use natural resources for energy, such as solar and wind power, saves lots of money, and is better for the enviroment. Here is a link for more information, Powering a clean energy revolution.

Diamond Jacks Casino and Resort

I stayed at the Diamond Jacks Casino and Resort not too long ago, in Shreveport, La. I have to say, I was less than impressed with my stay. I picked the Hotel because of the jacuzzi that is in every room, and that was nice. But, there were many other things that I was not happy with. It seemed like the walls were very thin, as I could hear many employees talking in the hallway at 6 am after being awakened by a loud truck outside the building that was beeping non stop for 5 minutes. So, I was forced to get out of bed a lot sooner than I had planned. I was also annoyed at having to pay a deposit to use the phone, and watch the tv. Also, there is a mini bar in the room, which also requires a deposit to be used. So, I did not enjoy my stay at the hotel. But, the casino was pretty good. It has a decent payout, and I will probably go back there sometime, if I am in the mood for some gaming. I do not gamble much, so it won't be too often that I go back.

Played Hide and Seek With My Niece

My neice is always wanting me to play with her so even though I wasn't feeling too well, I played hide and seek with her which is her favorite game. I got tired pretty quickly. But, I think I had as much fun as she did. I really enjoy spending time with her.

What Kind of Traveller Am I?, I'm glad you asked!




Your Travel Personality Is: The Bonder



For you, travel is less about where you're going - but who you're going with.

It's no fun to experience an amazing city or a beautiful beach without your friends.

In fact, it doesn't really matter where you go... because you and your friends always figure out how to have fun!
