Who shall we blame for our industry's troubles?


Just as you know, some resorts around the world are having some financial difficulties because of the fact that they made some major investments and now with the current financial crisis, they don't seem to be able to recover it... Who shall we blame for this? Below is another msnbc.com article which I would like you to read and take some conclusions on this matter:

Oh, puh-leeze!

Oscar Goodman, the mayor of Las Vegas, is mad at President Barack Obama for singling out his city as a destination for junkets and other potentially dubious business trips.

James Tisch, CEO of Loews Corp., says Congress is “killing the resort hotel business” as companies cancel meetings and conferences (even legitimate ones) to avoid any whiff of extravagance that may trigger the government’s ire.

And Ed Bolen, president and CEO of the National Business Aviation Association, is angry at the government and the media for stereotyping his industry and “discouraging and disparaging the use of general aviation for business purposes.”

Anybody sensing a pattern here? Seems that when the going gets tough, the fingers start pointing.

I realize, of course, that the aforementioned gentlemen are advocates whose tasks include defending their constituents’ contributions to the world of travel. And considering that I'm essentially a travel advocate myself (as a travel writer, I obviously have a vested interest in the industry's health), I can certainly commiserate. Believe me, when your work is based on finding newsworthy stories, an industry in retreat is not a positive development.

Yet it really bugs me when industry spokespeople blame the messengers instead of addressing the underlying problems that got them in the messes they’re in. From canceled conferences to grounded business jets, there’s no escaping the fact that much of the damage has been self-inflicted.

The importance of hot cold-weather drinks


While most people tend to ignore the important role played by the Hot cold-weather drinks, the truth is that I am quite aware of the fact that without them, many cities couldn't keep up with their normal social trends. So, would you like to know where you may find them? Just below is an article which is available in full detail on msnbc.com and which will give you a better idea of where you will find these drinks and how good they are for warming us up!

Few things can warm the body and soul in the dead of winter quite like a steaming beverage, all the better if it’s made with brandy ... or bourbon or rye.

Scotch or rum will do just fine, as well. And with the rise of haute-cocktail culture, wintertime drinkers are ensured a bevy of non-alcoholic ingredients that accommodate the more potent components of a hot cocktail in the most sizzling way.

Cinnamon and cloves, apples and pears, bitters and sugars, chocolate and cream — these are the great supporting actors in the classic winter cocktail.

Of course, the perfect winter cocktail requires not only the ideal ingredients, but the ideal setting, as well. How much better does a mulled wine taste when sipped next to a crackling fire? How much better is that hot toddy after an exhilarating day on the slopes? We all know the answer.

Would you love to visit Las Vegas?


Las Vegas, the city of all sins and the city where anyone can really have a great time seems to be facing some problems these days as tourism is also affected by the current financial crisis. In fact, more and more people are willing to travel to this city as prices tend to get more accessible. Below, you may read an msnbc.com review and take your own conclusions:

"

LAS VEGAS - Sin City is worried that its well-honed style is crimping its business.

Born of carefully crafted slogans — "What happens here stays here" — and smiling, sequined showgirls, the image of a 24-hour adult Disneyland with free-flowing booze and casino chips is making the tourist destination seem radioactive to companies keen on not appearing frivolous as they seek government bailouts.

In the past two weeks, at least four major companies canceled meetings worth hundreds of thousands of dollars — not because of costs but because of appearances. Even President Barack Obama questioned the propriety of flying off to Las Vegas if taxpayers were helping foot the bill.

Tourism officials, already nervous after watching meeting and convention attendance decline 5 percent in 2008, are challenging the impression that business meetings are wasteful — especially those conducted under the neon lights of Las Vegas.

"It's necessary, for us to thrive in this community, that folks come here and realize that this is not some stepchild," Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman said. "This is a very important place for people to conduct very important business."

Goodman — who often appears at functions with a showgirl at each arm — sent a letter this week to Obama objecting to his remarks.

The importance of surveys

While most people tend to trust too much on the reviews that they see on the magazines and even on what they see on the TV, the truth is that when it comes the time to make a decision that is somehow related to my travels, I tend to create some online surveys so that I can get impressions from people who have been there and tried it!

Could it be easier than this?

Taking the most out of the best North American glacier getaways


Do you love to visit the top glacier getways in the world? What about those ones that you are able to see in the US too? The truth is that we often end up noticing that we tend to ignore the beauty of the places that we can find on the US and we simply travel to Europe and other destinations where we won't find half the beauty! In order to help you understand that, you may read the following msnbc.com article and take your own conclusions:

By Jonathan Ages


Gazing upon the cliff and glacier-strewn east coast of Canada’s Baffin Island, Dr. Garth D. Jackson squints as he locates himself on the tattered map in his hand. He is standing on a cruise ship deck, and the map of Canada’s High Arctic — which Jackson, 79, helped research decades ago — flaps in the breeze. His memories of the island before him have faded somewhat over time, like the map's yellowing paper, but there are certain glaring changes to the landscape.

“Some of the glaciers have obviously receded,” said Jackson, an intermittent member of the Canadian Geological Survey from 1965 through 1994. “A lot of Baffin Island’s valley glaciers are still there, but they don’t come as close to the water. And they’re not as thick. Rocks poke through the middle of them, and it wasn’t like that before.”

Jackson retraced some of his decades-old footsteps by chartering an Adventure Canada cruise ship with his family and roughly 90 other passengers. They admired bowhead whales and polar bears from the ship’s deck, explored the many fjords of Baffin Island and made stops ashore to hike the tundra, look for wildlife and visit local communities. There are other trips, too, including one that crosses the fabled Northwest Passage and retraces the paths of some of the world’s most notable (and ill-fated) explorers.

The best ski resort restaurants for you to visit!


Do you love snow and the winter? Well, if that's the case, then you have tried some of the finest ski resorts in the world for sure! Still, have you ever tried their cuisine? This is exaclty what's being discussed on the article just below and which you are able to read in full detail on msnbc.com and which will give you a much clear idea of how impressed you will be when you try some of their food!

"

Apart from a bubbling hot tub with a champagne bucket chilling in the snow, few things can coax winter weary bones into another day on the mountain like a soul-warming feed.

In North America, ski food has long meant comfort food: steaming bowls of chili. Platters heaped with pasta meant to load you with carbs for the afternoon’s runs. And plates of messy nacho goodness enjoyed après-ski.

Over the past decade, however, ski towns across the country — from Killington to Lake Tahoe — have seen a food revolution with an eye on bringing classier fare to the slopes that’s evocative of the region while drawing on a European sense of refinement.

All that creativity in the kitchen is really upping the mountain-town ante. Forbes.com recently named Salt Lake City an up-and-coming culinary capital, putting the spotlight on the city’s local farmers and artisan cheese makers, bakers and chefs for “remaking the city’s culinary image.”
