			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Picked up in a recent publication, Santiago de Cuba famous for its historic uprisings and revolutions has been recommended as one of the best destinations in the world for the year 2010 and a must see place in your <a rel="nofollow" target='_blank' href="http://www.themodelshipblog.com/goto/Cuba_holidays/438/1">Cuba holidays</a>.</p>
<p>Rated within the top 10 destinations in the world by the prestigious Frommers Publications, Santiago de Cuba is the best place to see what is like to live in Cuba in modern days.</p>
<p>&#8220;Santiago is a culturally rich and scenic city that retains the intimate, friendly feel of a provincial capital, with peaceful neighborhoods where men play dominoes outdoors on hilly streets,&#8221; the website said.</p>
<p>It also acknowledged that the subsequent 12 months might be a period of a great deal of changes for tourism in Cuba, a suggestion echoed recently by Rough Guides.</p>
<p>Reuters informed that the travel source is urging travelers to trip to the country now before visitors begin to flock in from the US.</p>
<p>Santiago de Cuba is also the birth place of the world famous Bacardi Rum. First founded by Don Facundo Bacardi in 1862, the drink has since become renowned around the world and is now produced in Puerto Rico.</p>
<p>Santiago has an International Airport however if traveling from Europe holidaymakers will have to use the nearest Airport in Holguin City about 3 hours drive from Santiago. Another alternative is to fly to Havana and after a short stay a 2 hour domestic flight to the eastern city.</p>
<p>There is no better time in the year to visit Santiago than when the Carnivals are taking place. The week comprising the 26 of July for over 100 years have seen the streets of Santiago filled with joyful locals enjoying the best of the Cuban music and of course the best of the Cuban Rums.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you&#8217;re looking around for a hotel in St Ives, you should start by asking yourself what it is that you actually want from the place you&#8217;ll be choosing. Although you might think this is obvious, in my experience it&#8217;s easy to forget this simple rule to keep in your mind.</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s examine the question in more detail, so we can develop a set of criteria to use when sifting through the list of <a rel="nofollow" target='_blank' href="http://www.themodelshipblog.com/goto/hotels_in_St_Ives/382/1">hotels in St Ives</a> we can find on the internet. Once we&#8217;ve done this, we are in a much better position to choose the ideal hotel for our particular purposes.</p>
<p>The first thing to look at, of course, is why it is you want to stay in a hotel at all. Generally, this will be because you&#8217;re going on holiday or for work purposes. There are other reasons, such as perhaps visiting people or attending a function, but the most likely scenario is you&#8217;ll be there for a break or to work.</p>
<p>Next, you need to think of where it actually is in St Ives that you want to be staying. For instance, do you want to be near to the sights, the nightlife or the town centre, or is it essential that you stay near to where you&#8217;ll be working, or perhaps there are other issues that will come into play.</p>
<p>Once you have this in mind, you&#8217;ll want to decide what sort of facilities are important to you within the hotel itself. Certainly most modern hotels will come with en suite bathrooms, but if that isn&#8217;t important to you, you may be able to save some cash. Similarly, you should decide if you want a bar or restaurant in the place you&#8217;ll be staying.</p>
<p>Back in the day, it was unusual for holiday accommodation to include a gym or swimming pool within, but this is much more common now. And if you feel the need to go on the internet while you&#8217;re away, you should check if the hotel has wifi internet access, which is increasingly the norm.</p>
<p>We suggested you might be able to save some cash through looking at reduced facilities, and obviously your overall spend is a key consideration. There&#8217;s not a lot of sense in looking for top of the range luxury if you know you can&#8217;t afford it. Fortunately, St Ives has many hotels in various price ranges so you should find something suitable quite easily.</p>
<p>Now you have all this info to hand &#8211; location, facilities etc. &#8211; you should look into each of the hotels that are available in St Ives that match up with your requirements. You&#8217;ll probably find several that tick all the boxes, so you now simply need to choose a favourite.</p>
<p>Finally, of course, you&#8217;ll need to include the dates of your stay. Many hotels will not be available for all the days you want to be there, so you&#8217;ll want to check against each of them to ensure you can get the hotel you want when it comes to booking online.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone can use a break every now and then, and that is what makes city breaks so popular. In this article we will discuss Dublin city breaks. This will consist of some of the more popular attractions or sights to see in Dublin, Ireland.</p>
<p>You might not be aware of what a city break is. Basically, the best that I can describe it is similar to that of a mini vacation from your day to day life. A city break is typically packing up and heading off to a city that you have never seen or truly experienced to the fullest. Taking a weekend or a couple of available days and seeing what the city has to offer.</p>
<p>You will find that Dublin is a great place to take a city break. There is a lot to see and to do in Dublin. From guided tours to castles, there is something for everyone to learn and enjoy in this Irish capital. I have listed what some consider to be the two most popular tourist attractions apart from a guided tour.</p>
<p>One of these is the Dublin Castle. This impressive structure is a standing representation of the struggle that Ireland endured over a seven hundred year span to eventually gain their independence and freedom from the oppression of Old English rule. This is a great place for those who are not familiar with Irish history to learn a little something on the trip.</p>
<p>If you really want to experience Dublin, you have to check out the Guiness storehouse. This establishment is the place where the famous Guiness Irish Stout was created and where you can take a brief tour through 250 years that got the beer to where it is today. You will also find a free pint of the beer in your hands at the tour\&#8217;s end, if you are interested in getting a true taste of Dublin.</p>
<p>While you can start with Dublin city breaks, the beauty of these breaks is that they can take you and your family anywhere your heart desires. There is no agenda, no plans, just appreciation and relaxation.</p>
<p>Fantastic <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.themodelshipblog.com/goto/dublin_city_breaks/171/1">dublin city breaks</a> are an adventure for all the family, buy now at http://www.travelsoon.com/dublin-city-breaks.html</p>
