Hello there, 24th and 25th July, we (my family, fiancé and my would-be Father in law) had planned for a weekend off in Bhandardara. Due to some reasons, my Father in law could not join. So, my fiancé and family comprising of 7 members, myself included set off for an excited weekend off. By 5:00am we left our home. It was a 4-5 hours drive. Bhandardara is a hill station, 180 kms away from Mumbai. 45kms from Igatpuri. My fiancé...more
Once you've booked your trip to get to Sydney and where to stay, the next logical step is to determine whether or not to rent a car. Sydney and most cities offer some means of public transport and for some people this is enough for them to get around the city, especially if they are only staying a few days.If you are thinking of car rental in Sydney, then you should not have trouble booking a car from a car rental company on the airport property....more
For those of us who love to travel, all of the planning as well as the trip is pure joy! The worst part of any travel venture is packing, and then hauling around a bunch of luggage. After just a few trips of any length, the savvy traveler gets smart. You learn to pack smart and travel light! Would you believe that a large travel shoulder bag can carry everything you'll need for a month long trip abroad? It's true, though you may find it hard to believe. Let's examine the many virtues of the travel shoulder bag and then get into how to pack efficiently and economically, leaving the unnecessaries behind, but in possession of ample clothing.With today's travel constraints, including the size and weight of your luggage, additional fees for checked baggage, the full inspection of every bottle of shampoo, lotion, toothpaste and whatever other toiletries you may consider essential certainly tends to put a damper on your travel enthusiasm. An extra ounce over the permitted amount of whatever and it's confiscated on the spot. If you check luggage, you've then added the extra hassle of visiting the luggage carousel upon arrival at your destination and hoping you find it. The travel shoulder...more

Masks were originally worn on Halloween to copy the images of evil spirits, or placate them. As old as the festival is, dating back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, the costume aspect did not really become popular until the 1930s, when the first mass-produced costumes went on sale in American shops. Nowadays people spend masses on their fancy dress outfits, with $4.96 billion being spent on outfits in the United States alone in 2006. For many years these costumes were all based around the traditional theme of evil spirits, with people generally dressing up as witches, skeletons, ghosts and vampires.Of course, these traditional costumes are starting to become less and less popular - something rather strange after so many years of enduring popularity. It shows a natural progression and a slight change in the values of Halloween. Far from being the preserve of little children looking to dress up as beasts and their favourite cartoon characters, it has now become equally popular among adults, with many women (and indeed men) using the opportunity to flash the flesh and dress up in revealing outfits. Naturally, it is very difficult to make a witch or a ghost...more
