Kennedy Space Center, Florida
Less than an hour’s easy ride from the bright lights of Disney World, Kennedy Space Center occupies 219 square miles of land on Merritt Island, Florida. For decades a trip to Kennedy Space Center was on my “must do” list. The KSC has many facets. The facility serves as a research and technology center for NASA, a tourist destination and wildlife sanctuary. (by Jacquie Kubin)

Caye Caulker, Belize
Can't decide between a sun drenched, stress-free island vacation or adventure travel to thrill the senses? Then experience Caye Caulker, Belize… the best of both worlds."Go Slow" is the unofficial motto of this mile-long island, a place for travelers who appreciate reading a good novel while stretched out on a hammock or strolling along clear blue waters. You won't find a more superfluous sign than the placards reading, "Slow Down" pasted all over the island. (by Julie Becker and Christian Toto)

Discovery Cove, Orlando, Florida
"This was pretty much a perfect day,” said Rob Braddick of South Ayrshire, Scotland, as he toweled off, face glistening with the last of the days sun. Mr. Braddick, his wife, brother, Jack and sister-in-law Jessie were at the end of a day at Discovery Cove, Orlando , Florida. They had enjoyed a perfect, land-locked island get-a-way on a bright blue-skied day filled with white sand beaches, friendly dolphins and peering into undersea worlds vies-a-vie the snorkeling mask.

Aspen, Colorado
The Rocky Mountains surrounding Aspen, Colorado are indeed stoically placed and, it would seem, very unmoving. But that is an illusion. They are very much alive. They draw one, as Mohammed was drawn, to their grandeur. But the destination is always at the end of the journey, and this journey was filled with fun and adventure. Comfort and luxury. In short, the perfect outing. (by Jacquie Kubin)

Beaches Negril Resort & Spa in Ocho Rios and Negril
Girlfriend travel is often about finding a place to sit, talk and enjoy each other. The goal is often not about hot nightclubs or the need to stress over the perfect dress. Girlfriend travel is about being you, enjoying being you and doing it with your friends. Often at the beach. Beaches Negril Resort & Spa has resorts in Ocho Rios and Negril, but Beaches Negril enjoys the island's prime real estate along the northwestern tip. (by Jacquie Kubin)

Sunrise Springs Spa, New Mexico
Oasis. Sunrise Springs Spa is a seventy (70) acre oasis that radiates calm. The red rock sand and dust is a constant reminder that we are, indeed, in New Mexico’s desert country. We stand upon the rich soil that is the meeting place of the Rio Grande Basin and La Cienega Valley. The Sangre de Cristo Mountains can be seen from the resort grounds that include two spring-fed ponds, walking paths and a very special Japanese Tea Garden amongst its many treasures.
