The North Face Big Shot
North Face Big Shot: For Hiking or Traveling
by toiletoctopus
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Multi-Purpose, Looks Good, Weight
Cons: Collects dirt easily, Price might be shocking to some
The North Face has a tendency to be a bit overrated, with its outdoor gear that can equate to a car note in cost. Yet after close to a year of extensive use, I can without a doubt endorse their Big Shot Bag. Its a multi purpose ...

Whistler-Blackcomb
Better than the Alps, Nearly as good as Vail
by ecj52004New Member
Pros: Will keep you exploring for days, if you don't get distracted by the nightlife.
Cons: Difficult to drive to get to but definitely worth the trip.
Whistler-Blackcomb is the 2nd best mountain in the world, and when it's snowing, it has the best snow in the world. The largest mountain in North America, it has enough trails to keep you exploring for days... and a nightlife that risks you not making it ...

Pros: Great service, great repair and very nice rooms.

Doral Forrestal
Top two hotels in Princeton

Best Western Fairfax
Get what you pay for
by ecj52004New Member
Pros: Inexpensive, tidy and tries to provide the best services with what it has.
Cons: Older lobby, poor privacy (curtains), poor nearby food options, and far from the Metro.
You typically get what you pay for with hotels, although I am always optimistic I can find good quality at a lower price if I look hard enough. That was not the case with the Best Western Fairfax. I needed to make a last-minute booking, saw a low price ...

Quorn, South Australia, Australia

Cons: Get used to the flies...they're everywhere! Other than that, none.
INTRODUCTION As an ex-'Quornie' I feel compelled to point a gnarled finger at my quaint little town, as there is more to it than meets the eye. Where is it? Situated 332km from the state capital Adelaide, it is located in ...

Springhill Suites El Paso, TX
SpringHill Suites El Paso – a memorable night in Old El Paso
by pestyside
Pros: Quiet, Comfortable, Exceptionally clean, Friendly, Super breakfast
Cons: Doesn't allow dogs, Located in western El Paso suburbs rather than heart of El Paso
Travel through west Texas on Interstate 10 doesn’t offer a lot of quality hotel options between Fort Stockton and El Paso. Once committed to the 241-mile distance you’d be wise to reserve a room at the end of the day if you leave the Fort ...

Cyclades

Santorini is the southernmost of the Cyclades group of islands in Greece and has a population of about 15,000 people. The island deserves every bit of reputation it has. The views from the island are absoluately stunning and it allows a unique view ...

Crete
Southernmost island that is often overlooked
by ecj52004New Member
Pros: Incredible island that gives a view of Greek's culture, landscape, industry and beaches.
Cons: Distance from Athens and the size of the island require additional travel time.
As the largest of the Greek islands, Crete has one of the largest volumes of tourists. It often doesn't make it to the top of many US beach goers tourism lists, however. It is a great island that gives a view into Greece's culture, archiological ...

Until recently, staying overnight in Savannah meant the choice of a fairly predictable chain hotel or the unpredictability of a bed and breakfast if you craved something out of the ordinary.  For those who demanded more, there was relatively ...
