My fiance and I stayed an evening here rather than spending a fortune to stay at The Greenbrier Resort. I was able to get a great rate through Hotels.com, and couldn't be happier with our stay. The check-in process was quick and painless, and the staff was very pleasant. Our room was spaceous, but the bathroom was small. Our bed, however, was King size and was incredibly comfortable! The lines were extremely soft and we had no problem at all sleeping. I definitely reccommend this hotel - we will stay again should we take another trip down to The Greenbrier.

Hampton Inn - Lewisburg, WVPosted May 28, 2014
Pros: It was close and convenient to all the sights that we had planned to visit during our stay in the area. Room was clean and comfortable. Great staff.
Cons: Can't think of anything other than the keys need to be checked as to why we couldn't get access to the exercise room.
Location: Lewisburg, WV - great area to visit. Went on Lost World Caverns wild cave tour. Hiked the Greenbrier River Trail & had dinner at the Gen. Lewis Inn.
We spent 3 nights there over Memorial Day weekend. Beds were very comfortable and nice mix of softer and harder pillows. The swimming pool and hot tub were extremely enjoyable and we made use of both several times. For some reason my key did not gain access to the exercise room but I didn't have a great deal of time to try it out anyway, The full breakfast provided each morning was very good and I and my family were quite appreciative of them. Also was thankful to the staff especially the night clerk who provided a great dinner recommendation for us to go to on Sunday night.

Served our purpose for a good nights rest.Posted May 20, 2014
Pros: It lived up to Hampton Inn's standards, very close to off/on interstate and there where several places to eat within walking distance.
Location: We were traveling so we only stayed the night. Food right there in walking distance.
Wonderful beds, super clean room and great breakfast.

This former dairy is a rustic, stylish, comfortable & peaceful place to stay & explore Gloucestershire. The Old Dairy comprises a king size en suite main bedroom. A spacious & light living, dining, kitchen area. A twin room with zip link beds to create a super king bed, light & airy main bathroom & finally a beautiful mezzanine floor with double bed, the perfect hide away.
“The Little Dairy is a total gem of place. Stylish, spotlessly clean, warm and lots of homely touches. We (2 adults a 1 year old and a 4 year old) stayed for 3 nights in December whilst visiting family nearby. We have stayed in a lot of AirBnB’s and we can happily say this was the best equipped for a young family we have ever stayed in. Stair gates, a great comfy cot bed, spacious bathrooms and high chair all provided, as well as a few lovely toys and books for little ones. WiFi and TV reception were all spot on, as was check in process. We met Rosie and she was absolutely charming and very quick to reply to any questions we had. We knew the area very well so didn’t need much guidance there, but I’m sure Rosie would have been able to help if we did need pointing in the right direction. We will definitely be staying here next time we visit the area. Can’t really say anymore than that :-)”
The wooden cabin has been hand built on elevated views looking over the Forest of Dean. A private and secluded dwelling surrounded by country walks, fascinating wildlife, & historic places to visit. With quality pubs nearby this cabin is perfect for a stay away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Full electrics, bathroom with shower and cooking facilities including a wood fired pizza oven. Easy to access with parking & a donkey to keep you company! Pets welcome with plenty of long walks.
“Outstanding little private air bnb, a proper country living vibe but with all the necessary ammenities. Bed super comfy, and the hut is very warm, lovely little touches everywhere. Bathroom area great and easy to use. Pizza oven and log burner, with a great view of the greenery....what more is needed. Oh yeah a friendly dog called Millie who would occassionally visit us, who was that chilled even our grumpy terrier mongrel got on with her. Great location for getting to the Wye valley and symmonds yat (our main focus for the trip). Would highly recommend this place!”
The Stables is a stylishly renovated, detached, one bedroom cottage, nestled on the edge of the Cotswolds on a tranquil 20 acre smallholding with a babbling brook running through the fields...total relaxation...experience a slice of the good life.
“Park Mill Farm is the ultimate Cotswold destination! It's secluded, picturesque, and charming. The farm is within walking distance of the Cotswold Way, which is perfect for hiking or biking. The Stables is a beautiful cottage with really great amenities: our favourite being the luxurious bath that was wonderful after a long day of being outside in the country. The simple fact of it being surrounded by fields and beautiful views, no street lights or traffic noise was perfect for really getting out of the city. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the kitchen is stocked with everything you might need. The wifi was very fast, and it felt great to cozy up on the couch to watch movies in the living area. Although The Stables are enough of a draw to stay, our experience with Rose as a host was the cherry on top of this wonderful getaway. Rose was extremely helpful and friendly, and was extremely quick to respond to messages and offer help in any way she could. We really appreciated her care and recommendations for our daily outings, restaurants, and local shops and attractions. The wildlife and farm animals were a wonderful source of entertainment during our stay, especially the hilarious Guard Geese that kept us on our toes while wandering about the property. If you are in search of a luxurious farm and countryside experience, look no further. Our experience with Park Mill Farm was incredibly unique and relaxing - we will definitely be back!”

American Airlines' wastewater treatment plant recycles water used at the base to wash aircraft, process rinse water tanks, and irrigate landscape. That alone has saved almost $1 million since 2002. In addition to that, American Airlines has also won the award for the reduction of hazardous waste that saved them $229,000 after a $2,000 investment. A bar code system is used to track hazardous waste. It has led to reduction of waste by 50 percent since 2000.
In December 2017, the City of Toronto under John Tory, adopted similar restrictions, banning homeowners from leasing their basements with separate entries and their other non-residential units for short term rentals, also arguing it was to protect the long term rental market. Government issued licensing and fees would also be required to hosts to continue to short term renting. The move was also criticized by some hosts who rely on Airbnb as a source of income; with one of them arguing the government's control over their property was like living in Stalin's era of the Soviet Union. Airbnb responded in an open letter to the mayor and members of the City Council, welcoming fair competition but also made several arguments, including that Toronto's economy as a growing global hub also benefited from its listings. Many local residents depend on Airbnb for extra income and living expenses. The new economy evolved business and challenged the older business models and methods. Toronto, according to them, would benefit its reputation by adopting these newer business styles and ideas. It encouraged the city to continue to allow hosts to rent out their owned spaces, whether rooms in their house or in external spaces. All of this, according to Airbnb, brought about two hundred and ninety two million dollars into the city's economy.

""Stopped by the Hedley Club Lounge Saturday after the Sharks Game. What a fabulous surprise! a great combo playing old school smooth jazz. A relaxing venue by the fireplace with pleasant surroundings and comfortable accommodations. A real winner in downtown San Jose. Best cocktail lounge in the area. Beats the noise and crowds at the nearby venues.""
: In our case, we want people to be able to change the symbol sizes (eg. you need to fit in more content in to a header). If you need to resize or accidentally resize something, Sketch (<3.5) would automatically resize every instance of that symbol. That would kill your sketch for few moments and probably mess up your file permanently (sometimes undo didn’t work). We ended up putting the components in Layer Groups, and letting people copy and paste them.
In December 2010, listings for AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines and American Eagle Airlines, were deleted from Expedia's site. The decision resulted from a dispute over the degree of access to the site's customers. AMR reversed its decision in April 2011, allowing tickets to once again be sold through the aggregate site.
American Airlines allows all passengers to bring one carry-on bag and one personal item on all flights. The maximum dimensions for personal items are 18x14x8 inches and must fit in the seat in front of you. Certain infant necessities and medical equipment are also allowed as needed. Carry-on bags may not exceed 22x14x9 inches and must fit in the sizer at the airport. Bags that do not fit in the overhead bin or under the seat will need to be checked.

While creating these components, we collected them in a master file called the library, which we referred to throughout the design process. After a week or two we began to see huge leaps in productivity by using the library when iterating on designs. One day, while putting together a last-minute prototype, our team was able to create nearly 50 screens within just a few hours by using the framework our library provided.
In November 2017, the Government of Vancouver, Canada adopted regulations and restrictions against Airbnb hosting, claiming to protect the long term rental market which it stated was just above zero availability. The new regulations include allowing hosts to be allowed only to rent their principal residence. Hosts would also require a paid license with acquisition and maintenance fees, with a number to be displayed when listing any space for rent. A voluntary transaction fee of three percent was also to be implemented per reservation, but Airbnb claimed it was unable to collect such fees, instead requesting an amendment for the hotel tax.

Airbnb was able to complete its entire database migration to Amazon RDS with only 15 minutes of downtime. This quick transition was very important to the fast-growing Airbnb because it did not want its community of users to be shut out of its marketplace for an extended period of time. Tobi Knaup, an engineer at Airbnb says, “Because of AWS, there has always been an easy answer (in terms of time required and cost) to scale our site.”

Dallas’ nearest airport is Dallas/Fort Worth International, an immense transportation hub that serves direct flights from destinations across the globe - like London, Amsterdam, Sydney, and Seoul - as well as dozens of direct domestic flights. For public transport from the airport, take the DART Rail Orange Line train from Terminal A direct to Downtown Dallas. Alternatively, hire a car from an onsite rental service and drive the 22 miles to Dallas along the Highway 114 East - but beware of rush hour traffic. Once there, driving around the city is easiest, due to its sprawling size, but the DART light rail network also hits many of the main tourist areas.

We had an impromptu trip invite to Abu Dhabi last week to attend the press conference of the “Kids Rule on Yas Island” at Ferrari World. My husband had been out of town so me driving all the way to Abu Dhabi was out of the question. (I never drive past Maktoum bridge – shameful, I know!).
Thankfully, another blogger friend Sheila of AbandMe blog was going so we squeezed into their car for a fun ride to Abu Dhabi!
It’s about 2 hours from where we live and then after Ferrari World, Sheila and I thought, why don’t we just spend the night at Yas Island, the next day is a weekend anyway? I said, why not! But at this short notice, would there be any hotels to accommodate us?
We chose to stay at Yas Island Rotana, right in the neighborhood of Ferrari World because it’s near from the information on their website and according to Google Map. (And it’s true).
Yas Island Rotana Abu Dhabi is just a 10-minute drive from the Abu Dhabi International Airport, and a 20-minute drive from Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Center.
The check in was fast and smooth, staff were friendly who assisted us with a smile on their face though it was already late. I think it was already 11 pm when we checked in.
I was travelling to Abu Dhabi with two kids in tow and got the other one an extra bed. We got the classic room which was enough for the three of us. If you want more space, you may want to book for other room types.
The rooms were clean, bed was big and comfortable. We had a pleasant night sleeping here.
We had some sweet welcome inside our room.
The big pool at the hotel was under maintenance the time we were there. Thankfully, the shaded children’s pool was open.
GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT OUR SHORT STAY
Since the hotel is very near to the airport, noise coming in and taking off can be heard from our room. I slept really late and was only bothered for about a few minutes till I dozed off. We had breakfast next morning at Choices all day dining restaurant at the ground floor and the food quality was good and great variety of dishes available. We are particularly happy there’s miso soup!
* The other dining outlets are closed during daytime.
In-room WiFi was complimentary, which was highly appreciated!
The main pool at the hotel was under maintenance, however, the pool at the hotel’s sister property (Centro Yas) was open and accessible for Yas Island Rotana guests as well.
We also had massage at BodyLines Spa and Wellness and one of the best deep tissue massage I had so far. The spa therapists were lovely and very attentive to my requests. If there’s one thing I was not too happy about, it was the lack of relaxing music inside the spa…maybe it’s just me but it’s weird without those healing, soft music in that kind of environment. The staff told me that it was because it’s Ramadan and they are not allowed to play music…
Generally good, standard business hotel in a prime location with good facilities and excellent breakfast. I would recommend this hotel for location, value for money and food – think about it the next time you visit Yas Island and feel too tired to drive back to Dubai.
To learn more about Yas Island Rotana hotel and their special offers, check out their main website as well as connect with them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
We were guests at Yas Island Rotana Abu Dhabi but all opinions are my own.
I’m writing from the Khalidia Palace Rayhaan by Rotana to invite you for our Pre- Iftar Dinner. I would be grateful if you could give me your e- mail address as I am reorganizing our contact details and want to ensure to have yours.
Best regards and hope to see you there!

The Different Sizes of Cruise Ships
The size of a cruise ship is an important factor to consider when booking a cruise. The different sizes of cruise ships offer different amenities and accommodate different numbers of passengers.
Small Cruise Ships

The World’s Biggest Cruise Ship
A cruise ship is a large vessel used for ocean travel. Many people wonder how big the titanic vs cruise ship is.
The Titanic was the world’s largest cruise ship when it set sail in 1912. At 882 feet long and over 100 feet tall, the Titanic was truly a marvel of engineering. But today, it is one of the smaller cruise ships in the world, which is only about two-thirds the size of the average cruise ship.
The Royal Caribbean International’s Symphony of the Seas is the world’s biggest cruise ship. It can accommodate 5,479 passengers and 2,759 crew members. It is 362 meters (1,188 feet) long and has a load of 228,081.

Larger cruise ships offer more entertainment and dining options, as well as a more active nightlife scene.
The Pros and Cons of Cruise Ship Size
Cruise ship sizes are becoming large, with some holding over 5,000 passengers. With so many people on board, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and escape routes in case of an emergency.

The castle, which dates back to the fourteenth century, has been largely destroyed to accommodate the modern town, though parts can still be seen forming archways over streets or walls of houses.

Breakfast at the hotel in Portalegre. Departure to Monforte. Monforte was a Neolithic hill town that was taken over by the Romans so both Neolithic and Roman remains abound in the area. Nearby are the ruins of a Roman town and of a fourth century Roman/Christian basilica. Here we will visit the “Herdade da Torre do Curvo” – Torre do Frade means ‘The Friar’s Tower’ and indeed this large estate had a very long monastic history. As far back as 1384, the land was given to the Hermits of the Order of Saint Augustin. The friars founded a convent here, which flourished until 1834, when religious orders were expelled from Portugal.
The descendants of the family that bought the estate in 1839 still farm here – three branches of the family working together. As well as wine, they produce the famous black pigs and Alentejano cattle, sunflowers, various cereals, cork and honey. The first wines were made in 2004 in a 17th century Italianate building. After the visit we will have lunch including some of the local wines.
We will proceed our trip to Marvão – Marvão sits 1000 metres above the plain, on a mountain top with sheer precipice all around. It is totally walled and its 13th century castle is at the tip of the pinnacle. The far reaching views in every direction are simply spectacular.

Villa Diodati, when it is not being rented, is often lived-in by the current owner, so it has preserved the pleasant feeling that it is still inhabited, both from the furnishings, with its elegant and precious antique furniture and also from the details: family pictures and objects. The villa lies on three floors, the ground floor that comprises all the rooms used during the day, with several salons that look onto the garden, while the upper floors are dedicated to the sleeping areas. All around the villa is a private area of about three hectares, with a marvellous Italian garden next to the villa, a separate area that holds the private swimming-pool ( 7x14m), the tennis court, a spacious outbuilding where ceremonies and meetings can be organised, a little wood with ancient trees and a small vineyard.
