For your typical city occupant folding bikes usually are the most appropriate way to get around. With a lot of Londoners living in flats and apartments with little if any storage space a foldable bicycle is going to be much more convenient when compared to a standard sized cycle. The bikes fold up rapidly and are generally small enough to be tucked away in the home or taken on trains and buses during the particular times that ordinary cycles are restricted on account of passenger overcorwding.Folding bikes can in fact be taken on the tube system, taken on buses and even taken on Croydon’s Tramlink system. Officially the bikes may need to be in a small bag but in practice Transport for London rarely enforce this and if they do then a pair of black binliners will suffice. A folder will permit a person to circumvent the train companies’ cycle restrictions and you could actually take your folding bike home in a minicab on a Friday night following a few bevies at the pub!
There are plenty of different kinds of folding bicycles available, from leading manufacturers including  Dahon, Brompton and Pashley. Each model has its own advantages and down sides, so remember to examine the information on each of the models within your budget. Many manufacturer’s internet sites have specification comparison charts so that you can see instantly the information that interests you.Folding bikes come in a variety of models, each with their own features. Brakes, frames and gears vary according to the design of bike you select. Mountain bikes and racing bikes are also available as folding bikes. These are definitely the best choice if you have only a little space but would like to take up biking as a new sports activity in the greenery that encompases London or in one of the Royal Parks where cycling is allowed for example Richmond Park or Regent’s Park.
A lot of people regard the folded dimensions as the key feature of any folding bike. When space is tight or you want to store your bike under a desk in the office, you may need a compact bike. Measure the height, width and depth of the space where your bike is going to be stored so you can see immediately which bikes will squeeze into the available space.The weight of the bike may also be a primary consideration for anyone traveling on the London Tube or buses. In order for you to lift your bike off and on public transport, a light and portable bike can make it easier. You’ll find the weight of the bike listed in the manufacturer’s specifications.
As you can’t fold wheels up you’ll find all folding bikes have small wheels. Some companies have added a suspension system to their folding bikes to counteract the rough ride that smaller wheels give hence it might be worth paying a bit more for a bicycle with suspension to provide you with additional comfort if you are nervous about a back injury being aggravated by the potholes of the London streets.
Prices of cycles vary, so planning what amount you would like to shell out is usually a good place to start. Although most cyclists who use folding bicycles will realise that the money they save on car or transport expenditures far exceeds their original outlay on their folder. Folding bikes are the same as regular cycles; the more you pay the better quality of bike you’ll receive. That is not to say you can’t find a bike to your liking within budget, there are plenty of inexpensive folding bikes available. Should you be after a good deal, check out the prices for last year’s designs or look for discounts on second user online websites like Folding Bikes For Sale. There are many to select from so there will definitely be a folding bike available for you to benefit from in London.

Catalina Island, California – Greatest Place For Peaceable Retreat http://balashiha.su/?p=1845 http://balashiha.su/?p=1845#respond Thu, 20 Oct 2011 23:36:56 +0000 http://balashiha.su/?p=1845 Catalina Island, California – Greatest Place For Peaceable Retreat

When life’s stresses and strains get an excessive amount of for you, head over to Catalina Island and you’ll find a peaceful retreat that’s certain to have you relaxed in no time.  The island, is just approximately 22 physical miles from the mainland, however in terms of lifestyle and sheer population, it’s a lifetime away.  With solely 2 ports on the island, one into the principle city of Avalon, and the opposite into the extra secluded aspect of the island at Two Harbors, and only two methods onto the island, by way of the water or helicopter, there’s little or no noise from vehicles.  Comparatively few vehicles exist on the island and most visitors both get around on foot or bicycle.  
Regardless of being such a small island, there are issues to do here on the times if you really feel like doing one thing just a little extra energetic than watching the solar move round, and if you first arrive on Catalina Island it’s best to visit the native Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau which gives you all the information you want about what’s on, where to find it, and of course ideas of the place to stay and eat in case you haven’t already made reservations.  In the peak months nevertheless, you should all the time a minimum of reserve your room earlier than venturing across to the island.  Although you may be fortunate to reach and find a room free, it’s not likely throughout high season because of the restricted amount of accommodation available.  
Two of the preferred places to visit on Catalina Island are the Catalina Island Museum which charts the history of the island by it’s various stages from the more moderen historical past by way of the Hollywood era (the island was one of many first principal Hollywood movie sets) right again to the Native Americans.   Just about 2 miles out of Avalon you’ll discover the Wrigley Botanical Gardens which can delight anyone who has an curiosity in flora and fauna.  William Wrigley (as in the chewing gum empire) as soon as owned the island and you possibly can even keep in his mansion which is now converted right into a bed and breakfast establishment.
Catalina Island could not sound very exciting compared with the points of interest of Los Angeles and San Francisco, however for anybody needing to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, it’s an ideal seashore oasis.

Why You’ve Been Wrong About Yacht Charters and Some Tips to Get Started http://balashiha.su/?p=10899 http://balashiha.su/?p=10899#respond Sun, 14 Aug 2011 12:36:37 +0000 http://balashiha.su/?p=10899 Why You’ve Been Wrong About Yacht Charters and Some Tips to Get Started

Why would anyone want to holiday on a yacht? Noisy, prone to move without permission, expensive. Worse yet, they make you sick. Not quite the dream holiday you’ve paid for with early mornings, cramped commutes and long interminable office hours. But there’s a ‘but’.

You can look good lounging on your hotel terrace, but you can look fabulous arriving by yacht. The question is how to achieve this without a)blowing the bank, b)getting sea-sick, and c) falling off.

First, yachts don’t need to be expensive. Consider how much you’ll otherwise spend on a hotel. Look at the number of berths on a boat and make sure you fill them. Split down the costs and surprise yourself. The numbers in your party and the berths on the boat are the most important factor. On the whole you’ll find the bigger your party the better rate you can get. A recently booked skippered charter out of Athens for a group of 10 on a 65ft sailing yacht, including all the food and drink (maybe not all the drink), all taxes, fuel and annoying extras came in at 71EURO per head. Not bad.

What else? If you don’t have a yachtie member of your party who can drive the boat then you can easily hire a local skipper for around ?100/day. If there’s 6 of you that’s about ?17 per day – not too distressing for a professional tour guide every day and one who’ll take care of the yacht for you.

What about that sick feeling you get as soon as the wind picks up and you’re supposed to be having a ‘good sail’? Well, there are places where you can avoid this. For example the east coast of Greece is almost entirely protected by the Greek mainland mountains, which also create a reliable afternoon sea breeze to waft you gently into the next port. The breeze takes half the day to develop so you can get in some proper sun-bathing time in the morning or just visit the picturesque town you’ve berthed in, then you can go for a sail (little waves only) in the afternoon. And best of all, once the sun goes down, so does the wind. Just in time to enjoy a gin and tonic sundowner, not a hair out of place. Who’s the yachtie now?

If you holiday in the winter then top up on the tan in those long, wan winter months by visiting to the British Virgin islands. Protected waters, sunny, food and drink at every stop, blue waters and bath-temperature seas. Not to mention stunningly beautiful coral reefs. A trip to the BVIs in November or December followed by skiing in March (or the other way around) must be the ultimate ‘winter blues’ remedy.

Any other top tips? Well, for the Caribbean I can recommend a catamaran, not a monohull, charter. It’s cat country out there. Cat’s are faster, more stable, have more space and have a much more ‘normal’ layout if you’re not used to yachts. The Med is slightly different. There a catamaran can be more trouble than its worth when you arrive when trying to find a space in those tightly packed meditteranean town quays. Still, it is possible and if you’re keen for a cat and also hiring a skipper then you can let him worry about those kind of details. A good local skipper will find the space in every town quay however packed it may look.

So next time you come back from holiday, don’t say “i’m just back from holiday”, try “i’ve been holidaying on my yacht”. Well, it is yours for a week or two. Now how does that sound?

Different types of private jets http://balashiha.su/?p=2628 http://balashiha.su/?p=2628#respond Tue, 14 Jun 2011 00:25:07 +0000 http://balashiha.su/?p=2628 Different types of private jets

Although it has been traditionally believed that private jet hire was the sole domain of the mega-rich and privileged, in recent years private air charter has become much more accessible to the average person for private shopping trips or for companies who wish to send groups of employees to overseas meetings and conferences.
With this growing trend to become an increasingly accessible form of national and international travel, it can be a much easier choice to make and you can hire a variety of jets and airplanes. For instance, for larger groups of travellers, it would make sense to hire a much larger aircraft to accommodate these greater numbers.
Many larger aircrafts can hold a minimum of 15 to 20 people and are appropriate for longer trips or for those corporate excursions which may involve returning heavier loads of stock or goods for resale or for the creation of new products. For smaller parties for example, a lighter aircraft may be most suitable; many of these smaller crafts can hold up to eight passengers and can be much cheaper and affordable than heavier planes, especially for shorter trips.
Other types of aircraft that can be hired by private parties are helicopters. Helicopters are ideal aircraft for the transportation of small groups to relatively short distances especially if a quick arrival is important. One advantage of using a helicopter is that the group travelling can enjoy full panoramic views of the landscape they are travelling through. This mode of transport can also make an instant impact on those awaiting the arrival of the party; this can instantly convey a professional and successful corporate image. With a range of private aircraft available for hire here at JetAir we can provide an individual or organisation with the aircraft requirements to specifically suit their individual needs.

Navigating Yourself Through Vancouver British Columbia http://balashiha.su/?p=6451 http://balashiha.su/?p=6451#respond Fri, 10 Jun 2011 00:15:30 +0000 http://balashiha.su/?p=6451 Navigating Yourself Through Vancouver British Columbia

Inner-City Transportation Options

Vancouver is one of the few remaining North American cities to place a higher level of importance on its’ communities over road infrastructure. Instead of a 6 lane highway cutting through the downtown core, SkyTrains and other public transit vehicles have been used to service the increasing transportation needs of the city’s residents. This translates into a direct benefit for travelers as they are presented with a number of transportation options. In Vancouver, guests are not relegated to a specific area/community; for example, tourists may stay in a vacation rental or hotel in the nearby city of Burnaby while still only being a 15 minute SkyTrain ride away from downtown.

Vancouver’s public transit system spans across the Greater Vancouver area through a combination of SkyTrains, shuttles, buses, and sea-buses. Tourists are able to go from The Vancouver International Airport to Grouse Mountain for the nominal price.

Although renting a car, taking a taxi, or riding public transit may be quick & easy; renting a bicycle can sometimes be the best way to see Vancouver’s beauty. Wrapped around the majority of the downtown coast is a bike path which showcases many of Vancouver’s diverse settings. Along the way, guests will be treated a host of popular attractions including: Stanley Park, Granville Island, and The Telus World of Science.

Airport Transportation Options

At the end of a good vacation, most people have to return to where they came from; and in most cases, that requires returning to YVR (Vancouver International Airport). Luckily this trip can be made quite easy as tourists are presented with several options in getting to the airport.

RAV Line – The Richmond Airport Vancouver Line, or simply RAV Line, was completed prior to the 2010 Winter Olympics and stretches from the center of downtown Vancouver all the way to YVR. Passengers will travel underground for the majority of the trip and cross over the Fraser River before arriving at the airport. The RAV Line is the typically the least expensive method of getting to the airport.

Another efficient way of getting to the airport is by use of the traditional taxi-cab. All taxis in Vancouver use standard metered rates, so there is no need to negotiate beforehand. For guests arriving in YVR, there is always a line-up of taxis right outside the airport doors.

For guests arriving in Vancouver but heading out to other local destinations, like Whistler Blackcomb for example, there are charter bus options available; however it is recommended that guests pre-book their seats, especially for charters that pickup at the airport.

The Masai are warrior tribe in Kenya who lives center around herding cattle. The believe The creator entrusted his cattle to them; consequently, their wealth is measured by the number of animals they have in their homes. The heads of most women have been decorated by breads as they spend most of their time doing bead work. They decorate animal hides, gourds and make beaded jewellery’s for the arms, leg bracelets and amulets. This tribe have created a tourist attraction in the most scenic areas of Masai Mara National Reserve offering wonderful scenery and plenty of game.

The Rivers are home of hippo and crocodile.

At the heart of these lands is the Masai Mara Game Reserve, widely considered to be Africa’s greatest wildlife reserve. The Mara comprises 200 sq miles of open plains, woodlands and reverie forest. Contiguous with the plains of the Serengeti, the Mara is home to a breathtaking array of life. The vast grassland plains are scattered with herds of Zebra, Giraffe, Gazelle, and Topi.
