Top 10 Honeymoon Destinations

We all want our honeymoon to be special, unique, and unforgettable. What is the perfect recipe for exceptional newly-weds' romance away from home? The tropics, wild desert, or maybe a vibrant city? See the selection of most popular destinations for the just-married to get inspired, or to check what you might like while planning your future honeymoon, wedding, or a romantic trip the two of you will enjoy.

 

1. The Maldives


Maldives.

Incredibly azure waters, perfect beaches covered with white warm sand, slender palm trees, remote and calm resorts...can you imagine a better place for a long-awaited honeymoon? Maldives is definitely a place where you and your brand new spouse will ascend to a paradise on earth.


Maldives.

The Maldives is an island country in the Indian Ocean that comprises twenty-six atolls and 1.195 islets. Charming honeymoon resorts are located on separate islands and many of them offer private bungalows so the just-married can enjoy privacy and intimacy of their personal exotic setting.

The resorts' offers are perfectly composed to satisfy the most demanding newlyweds. Romantic candlelit dinners, rooms decorated with flowers, breakfasts on the beach, or even your own private sandy spot...this could be a beginning of a beautiful marriage.

2. Chile


Torres del Paine.Chile.

If tropics seem a bit trite for you, then Chile might be a perfect option for a romantic, but also adventure-filled honeymoon. Chile is one of the most striking and beautiful countries in South America. It is also one of the few countries on the continent relatively free of crime, and with gradually increasing economy.


Valle del Equi.

The Chilean landscape is savage and diverse. A dry hot desert (the Atacama) is stretching in the north, a mountainous patch covers Southern Patagonia, and Torres del Paine National Park amazes with its untamed wilderness and beauty. Climbing volcanoes, strolling along vineyards, exploring glaciers, geysers and lakes are just a few examples of myriad opportunities waiting for the wild hearted newlyweds in Chile.

3. Greece


Oia. Greece.

Take ancient history, add monumental sites and exotic islands. Mix it with trendy hotels or isolated rustic accommodations and combine the mixture with sunny weather. Season all with excellent Mediterranean cuisine and rub it with the laid-back atmosphere. Let it stand for at least two weeks and you will have a perfect recipe for the ideal honeymoon.


Restaurant 1901, Skiathos Town.

This is Greece, an ancient country situated at the end of the Balkan Peninsula and surrounded by the crystal waters of the Mediterranean basin. Whether it is be Mykonos, a vibrant island packed with stylish bars and restaurants, a bit quiet Delos, or Crete, dotted with beautiful beaches, caves and historic ruins, Greece will help make your honeymoon special.

Sunset in Greece.

4. Tuscany, Italy


San Gimignano. Tuscany.

Home of fine art, excellent cuisine, magical landscapes, wine, wine, and more wine...Tuscany, a region in Italy, known for its beautiful countryside and rich artistic output. It is an ideal destination for newly married couples wanting to celebrate their honeymoon in Renaissance romantic surroundings, close to historic sites of elegant Florence and Pisa.

Tuscany in May.

Tuscany is a perfect blend of vibrant cities and romantic countryside of rolling hills, splendid Apuane Alps, charming vineyards, olive groves and miles of sandy beaches. The most romantic time to go is spring when the fields are covered with flowers and the weather is pleasantly warm, but not too hot.

Vineyards in Tuscany.

5. The Caribbean

Dominican Republic.

It can be Barbados, Jamaica, Turks & Caicos, Cayman Islands or some other Caribbean destination...the whole region featuring 7,000 islands, islets, reefs, and cays is a perfect getaway for newlyweds. The beaches are exotic, the water is crystal clear, the resorts are chic and the dining is excellent.


Turks and Caicos.

Caribbean islands are perfect destinations to relax on golden sands, enjoy beautiful sunsets, dive, golf, swim with dolphins or take long romantic cruises. The best time to go is from December to April; in May and November you may look for bargains; from June to October it rains and the hurricanes may occur.


Barbados

6. Arizona, the USA


Glen Vanyon. Arizona.

Again, if tropics are commonplace and the two of you are searching for something more dramatic and spiritual, then why not spend your honeymoon in Arizona. If you are looking for a bit of inspiration and adventure, this could be some true experience.


Arizona sunset. Sonoran Desert.

Whether you stay in bed and breakfast with dazzling mountain views, a trendy villa with spa or an all inclusive luxurious hotel, you will have a chance to come closer to nature, stay active biking, rafting, climbing or just strolling around hand in hand (how romantic!). Arizona is also great to do more down-to-earth and less romantic things such as shopping at trendy malls of Scottsdale and Phoenix, or dining out in great restaurants offering world-class cuisines, from Mexican spicy tastes to Japanese specialties.

7. Mexico

Cancun. Mexico.

No place can be as diverse and romantic as Mexico. The azure waters of the Pacific coast, stunning reefs perfect for diving and snorkeling in Yucatan, the magical and mysterious Teotihuacan site, excellent food and Mexico City's vibrant nightlife - this is Mexico, another ideal destination for spending an unforgettable honeymoon.


One of Mexico's romantic restaurants.

Mexico has so much to offer, from thousands of outdoor activities to historical sites and rich history, that it would be worth staying in the country at least several weeks. Unfortunately, the honeymoon is often very limited (in terms of duration, of course), but you can always treat it as a good introduction to your trips and vacations in Mexico in the future.


Cozumel, Mexico.

8. Fiji


Fiji's island.

Another idyllic place for a honeymoon is Fiji. The island country located in South Pacific Ocean is 365-days-a-year destination with excellent warm weather and super-friendly locals. There are around 300 islands and around 500 islets that make up Fiji, of which many are permanently inhabited.


Navala village. Fiji.

Fiji is also one of those places that you can easily call a paradise on earth: sandy beaches, turquoise waters, great reefs ideal for snorkeling and diving, mixed with the breathtaking interior brimming with volcano carters, waterfalls, mountain views and historical sites. Many resorts offer private honeymoon accommodations where you can feel like in your own personal heaven.


Coral Coast. Fiji.

9. Sydney, Australia


Sydney's harbour.

The tropics are great, the remote Chilean desert can be fascinating, the Greek islands are romantic, but if you still haven't found what you are looking for...Sydney might be an option for a fantastic, crazy honeymoon.


Bondi Beach. Sydney.

It does have great beaches, it does offer romantic getaways, it is sunny, relaxed and charming. The honeymoon in the vibrant city of trendy bars, smart restaurants, great sights of the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, funky New Town and hip Bondi Beach is great for the just-married searching for 100% of great city life plus some striking beauty of nature.


Darling Harbour by night.

10. Hawaii, the USA


Kauai.

You and your spouse will love it, simply because Hawaii is difficult not to love. It might be packed with people in busy resorts, but once you get off the tourist tracks, you may find yourself alone (with your spouse... I mean) on empty beaches or in a lush rain forest.

Hawaii Sunset.

Hawaii's islands, located in the central Pacific Ocean, are the year-round destinations. There are eight main islands in the archipelago, so the choice is broad, but if you don't have much time to do island-hopping, stay on one of them to fully explore it. Among highlights are Big Island with Hawaii's tallest mountain, Mauna Kea, and a beautiful volcano, Kilauea, Kauai , the surfers' spot and home to Mount Waialeale Crater, and finally Maui , perfect for humpback whales watching.


Oahu.

Halloween, or Hallowe’en, is a holiday and it is celebrated on the night of October 31. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting “haunted houses”, carving Jack-o’-lanterns, reading scary stories and watching horror movies.

Halloween 2010 is on Sunday, the 31st of October 2010.

When witches go riding,
and black cats are seen,
the moon laughs and whispers,
tis near Halloween.

Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen,
Voices whisper in the trees, “Tonight is Halloween!”

Backward, turn backward,
O Time, in your flight
make me a child again
just for to-night!

Hobgoblins know the proper way to dance:
Arms akimbo, loopy legs askew,
Leaping into darkness with delight,
Lusting for the ecstasy of fright,
Open to the charm of horrors new….

On Hallowe’en the thing you must do
Is pretend that nothing can frighten you
And if somethin’ scares you and you want to run
Just let on like it’s Hallowe’en fun.

On All Hallow Eve
What lots of fun we can make,
With apples to bob,
And nuts on the hob,
And a ring-and-thimble cake.
~Carolyn Wells

Once in a young lifetime
one should be allowed
to have as much sweetness
as one can possibly want and hold.
~Judith Olney

A gypsy fire is on the hearth,
Sign of the carnival of mirth;
Through the dun fields and from the glade
Flash merry folk in masquerade,
For this is Hallowe’en!

To LEED or not to LEED

With all the recent talk about LEED Silver and LEED Gold (and LEED Red, which is what one Vancouver Sun reader suggested should be awarded to the Olympic Village!), I thought I would post a story I wrote for the August Issue of Municipal World, a national magazine targetted to Municipal Officials and Politicians.

In June 2008, Vancouver City Council approved a policy that could have significant impact on planning and development policies in many municipalities across Canada. Unfortunately, most of the Councillors who voted in favour of the policy did not have any real understanding of what they were doing. Furthermore, this decision could be setting us on the wrong course as we try to improve the environmental performance of buildings and communities. Let me explain.

The Council Policy proposed that:

All rezonings for buildings that meet the minimum requirements to participate in the LEED™ for New Construction (NC) program, be required to establish designs that would achieve a minimum equivalent of LEED™ Silver, with a minimum of 3 optimize energy performance points, 1 water efficiency point and 1 storm water point. Buildings that are not eligible to participate in LEED™ NC due to form of development shall achieve BuiltGreen BC Gold™ with a score of Energuide 80, or an equivalent achievement in green design.

The policy applied to any new applications for rezoning or Heritage Density Bonuses received after May 13, 2008. Staff were instructed to undertake consultation and education with the development industry, and report back to Council with recommendations to increase the requirement to LEED™ Gold and BuiltGreen BC Platinum on January 1st, 2010.

Confused? You are not alone.

To better understand what this is about, the following is a brief description of LEED, (which for some bizarre reason is often called LEEDS by those not in the planning and development business).

LEED was developed by the US Green Building Council that comprised a variety of professionals involved in the design and construction communities. It is an abbreviation for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. Essentially, it is an independent rating system for green buildings that began in 1998. In subsequent years LEED grew from a standard for new construction to a comprehensive system of six standards covering all aspects of the development and construction process, including renovations and entire new communities.

LEED was created to establish a common standard of measurement for green buildings, stimulate competition in their design and construction, and recognize environmental leadership in the building industry. It was also hoped to raise consumer awareness. It does this by awarding buildings a ‘Certified’, Silver, Gold, or Platinum status for buildings and communities.

The rating systems address seven major areas: Location and Planning; Sustainable Sites; Water Efficiency; Energy and Atmosphere; Materials and Resources; Indoor Environmental Quality; and Innovation and Design Process.

While LEED was developed in the United States, in recent years a Canadian version has been created and there is now a Canada Green Building Council overseeing the implementation of the program.

An important aspect of LEED is that buildings are certified by independent parties who have been accredited by the Green Building Councils. However, it is especially important to note that buildings can only be certified after they have been completed, occupied, and ‘commissioned’. It is also worth noting that the certification process can take time, and result in considerable cost as the ‘certifier’ liaises with the design and construction team, and the Canada Green Building Council.

The problem with the Vancouver Council decision is that LEED was never intended to be a zoning tool. In other words, it was never contemplated that City Councils might require LEED certification as a condition of rezoning, especially when additional density was granted. As noted one would not know if the building could be certified until well after it had been completed and occupied.

This begs the question. What happens if the building is not certified? Do the people on the top floors have to move out?

To be fair to the Vancouver officials, they tried to address this practicality by suggesting that buildings would have to be ‘LEED equivalent’. However, a new Council has now been elected and many of the officials who were involved in developing the earlier policy have moved on. The new Mayor wants Vancouver to become the Greenest City in the World and he has instructed staff to further raise the bar. Rather than require LEED equivalency, the Council is now requiring LEED Certification. Furthermore, since Vancouver recently held the Olympics, there is a desire to immediately strive for GOLD, rather than SILVER. I mean after all, who wants to come second? (ED Note: Since writing this story in May, I am told that Vancouver has agreed to change its requirement to LEED equivalency.)

In addition to the problems of deciding what to do if the certification is not achieved, and the processing costs related to certification, there are also design and construction costs associated with achieving the desired level of certification. And there is another problem; what if some of the innovative design and construction features required to obtain the rezoning do not perform as expected?

Architects and engineers in some cities are becoming increasingly familiar with green building design and construction practices. However, this is not always the case in many communities. Furthermore, there are additional costs that are not yet truly known. A case in point is Vancouver’s Olympic Village housing which went significantly over budget, in large part, because the city wanted this to be an environmental showcase. Many features were built into these housing units that had never been tried before.

Not every project is going to be an international showcase. However every project is going to incur additional costs which need to be paid for. In the case of most commercial buildings, the person incurring the additional costs will likely realize savings in the annual operating costs to offset the capital outlay.

However, in the case of housing, especially housing for sale, the developer must recover the additional costs in the sales price. While some believe the additional cost is nominal, this is not necessarily true. From my own experience with a LEED project at Simon Fraser University, I discovered that there are often unforeseen costs that must be accounted for. For example, our engineers specified something called a heat recovery ventilation system. The idea was to capture the heat from the back of refrigerators and use it to heat the fresh air that was brought into the building. This seemed like a very innovative and clever idea, especially for a building on university owned lands.

The problem was that all the piping had to go in the corridor ceiling, thus reducing the floor to ceiling height to an unacceptable standard. Another option was to place the piping on the roof, but I worried about potential leaking from all the holes that would have to be made. In the end, the decision was made to raise the ceiling height for the top floor. Of course, when we tallied up the costs of trying to achieve LEED certification, everyone agreed that the extra piping was a cost, but not the raising of the ceiling. This illustrates the problem of properly determining the additional costs of achieving LEED certification.

I hesitate to set out what it costs to achieve the various LEED ratings. Sometimes it may only be a 2% or 5% increase, but in other cases, it can be much more. More importantly, there is no guarantee that an appropriately designed building will be certified. If the contractor has not used the specified glues, the required indoor air quality standard may not be achieved, through no fault of the owner or design team. Similarly, as we all know, heating and ventilation systems do not always work as designed.

While some of these problems can be fixed, others cannot. This becomes a major problem when a density bonus resulting in a much larger building has been granted in return for achieving LEED certification.

For this reason, I would caution any municipality that is thinking of following Vancouver’s policy of requiring LEED certification in return for a density bonus. Instead, consider imposing lower LEED requirements for all buildings, but only with a full understanding of the costs and challenges that can arise.

There is no doubt that achieving greener buildings and communities is a desirable goal. Furthermore, LEED is becoming the independent certification system in Canada for certain classes of buildings. However, in order to be more widely applied, there is a need to overhaul the certification process; it is simply too cumbersome and expensive in many cases, and achieving Gold and Platinum standards can in many instances add significantly to the cost of housing. Also, we should not ignore the concerns of some professionals that we may be moving too quickly, without a full appreciation of the unforeseen consequences of certain design and construction requirements.

To better understand this concern, just Google “leaky condos”!

10 of the Greatest Unresolved Mysteries

The world, like it is, have been seeing things that still haven’t been fully explained and have baffled people since times of yore. Many mysteries came and passed by as they got solved out by humans but many still exist which perplex the human brain. Searches are underway to resolve them since long but in vain. Here is a list of few of the greatest mysteries that either defy rational explanation or just remain an unsolvable puzzle.

1. Wow! signal

Source

The Wow! signal was a strong narrowband radio signal detected by Dr. Jerry R. Ehman on August 15, 1977, while working on a Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project at The Big Ear radio telescope of Ohio State University. The signal bore expected hallmarks of potential non-terrestrial and non-solar system origin. It lasted for a total of 72 seconds, the full duration Big Ear observed it, but has not been detected again. Much attention has been focused on it in the media when talking about SETI results.

Both the length of the Wow! signal, 72 seconds, and its shape corresponds to an extraterrestrial origin but its source remains unexplained. The region of the sky in which the signal was heard, lies in the constellation Sagittarius, roughly 2.5 degrees south of the fifth-magnitude star Chi-1 Sagittarii.

2. Noah’s Ark – Found in Turkey?

Source

From at least the time of Eusebius (c. 275 – 339 AD) to the present day, the search for the physical remains of Noah’s Ark has held a fascination for Muslims, Christians and Jews. Noah’s Ark is the huge vessel described in the Hebrew Bible and the Qur’an, through which God saved Noah, together with the other seven members of his family, plus representatives of all the species of animals, from a cataclysmic flood with which he wished to exterminate all other life on Earth.

The Ararat anomaly is an object appearing on photographs of the snowfields near the summit of Mount Ararat, Turkey, and called by believers in Biblical literalism as the remains of Noah’s Ark. It was first filmed during a U.S. Air Force aerial reconnaissance mission in 1949 — the Ararat massif sits on the former Turkish/Soviet border, and was thus an area of military interest. IKONOS satellite, France’s SPOT satellite and NASA’s Space shuttle in 1994 have all pictured it and could not rule out it as a man-made structure such as the Noah’s ark. However, a team of scientists, archeologists and forensic experts are under operation to evacuate the object and explain its origins.

3. Apollo Moon Landing

Source

Different Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that Moon landings were falsifications staged by NASA. Since the conclusion of the Apollo program, a number of related accounts espousing a belief that the landings were faked in some fashion have been advanced by various groups and individuals. Some of the more notable of these various claims include allegations that the Apollo astronauts did not set foot on the Moon.

The Flat Earth Society was one of the first organizations to accuse NASA of faking the landings, arguing that they were staged by Hollywood. Some claim that the technology to send men to the Moon was insufficient or that the Van Allen radiation belts, solar flares, solar wind, coronal mass ejections and cosmic rays made such a trip impossible. Bart Sibrel has claimed that the crew of Apollo 11 and subsequent astronauts had faked their orbit around the Moon and their walk on its surface by trick photography and that they never got more than halfway to the Moon. Cold War prestige, monetary gain and providing a distraction are some of the more notable motives which are given.

4. The Bermuda Triangle and the Vile Forces

Source

The 20th century saw dozens of ships and aircrafts fade into oblivion in Devil’s Triangle a.k.a. the Bermuda Triangle, a.k.a. the Hoodoo Sea. Most disappeared without a trace, without even a distress call or any sign of debris left over. Vincent Gaddis put the triangle on the map in his 1964 Argosy feature. Sizes of the areas described ranged from 500,000 to 1.5 million square miles. They say size does not matter after all: some inexplicable force within it causes ships and planes to vanish. The Vile Vortices (map) refers to a claim that there are twelve roughly evenly distributed geographic areas that are alleged to have the same mysterious qualities[ popularly associated with the Bermuda Triangle.

Man’s knowledge of magnetism is not as profound as it could be, making a conclusive analysis difficult. Others attribute this to extraterrestrial activity. Many blame it on human error. The absence of bodies might be explained by the fact that the waters are infested with sharks. Historically, man has explained odd incidents thanks to mythology, demons, monsters, or extraterrestrial invaders. When mankind is willing to set aside its preconceived notions, look at facts and draw up a conclusion, then answers will rise to the (water’s) surface. But, before you think conspiracy, the area is notorious for unpredictable weather, so extreme, in fact, that it could annihilate any mass in the area.

5. Mary Celeste

Source

The Mary Celeste was a brigantine merchant ship notably discovered in December 1872 in the Atlantic Ocean unmanned and apparently abandoned, despite the fact that the weather was fine and her crew had been experienced and able seamen. She was in seaworthy condition and still under sail heading towards the Strait of Gibraltar. She had been at sea for a month and had over six months’ worth of food and water on board. Her cargo was virtually untouched and the personal belongings of passengers and crew were still in place, including valuables. The crew was never seen or heard from again. Their disappearance is often cited as the greatest maritime mystery of all time.

The fate of her crew has been the subject of much speculation. Theories range from alcoholic fumes, to underwater earthquakes, to waterspouts, to involving extraterrestrial life, sea monsters, and Bermuda Triangle. The Mary Celeste is often described as the archetypal ghost ship, since she was discovered derelict without any apparent explanation.

6. Sailing stones

Source

The sailing stones, also known as sliding rocks, are a geological phenomenon where rocks move in long tracks along a smooth valley floor without human or animal intervention. They have been recorded and studied in a number of places around Racetrack Playa, Death Valley, where the number and length of travel grooves are notable. The force behind their movement is not understood and is the subject of research.

Sliding rock trails fluctuate in direction and length. Some rocks which start next to each other start out traveling parallel, but one may abruptly change direction to the left, right, or even back the direction it came from. Length also varies because two similarly sized and shaped rocks could travel uniformly, then one could burst ahead or stop dead in its track. Speed is also an unknown variable.

7. Turin Shroud

Source

Turin Shroud is a linen cloth bearing the image of a man who appears to have suffered physical trauma in a manner consistent with crucifixion. It is kept in the royal chapel of the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, northern Italy. The origins of the shroud and its image are the subject of intense debate among scientists, theologians, historians and researchers. Some contend that the shroud is the cloth placed on the body of Jesus Christ at the time of his burial, and that the face image is the Holy Face of Jesus. Others contend that the artifact was created in the Middle Ages.

In 1988 a radiocarbon dating test was performed on small samples of the shroud, concluding that the sample they tested dated from the Middle Ages, between AD1260 and AD1390. Popular books have presented diverse arguments for both authenticity and possible methods of forgery. The shroud remains one of the most studied artifacts in human history, and one of the most controversial.

8. The Lost City of Atlantis

Source

Plato was great at stirring up trouble and two of his dialogues – Timaeus and Critias — have served as the basis for the theory behind the Lost City of Atlantis. While many critics attribute this story to the creation of a philosopher’s imagination to illustrate an argument, there are proponents who claim that it was the other way around; that his dialogues were inspired by catastrophic events, leading to the destruction of the Minoan civilization on Crete and Thera.

So, did Plato have too much wine? Is Atlantis an exaggeration based on the ancient cities of Thera in the Mediterranean? Or could it be real? Is it possible for an advanced and rich civilization to have existed in the Atlantic Ocean circa 9,000 B.C.? By most accounts, the only written records of Atlantis are found in Timaeus and Critias. Another possible location for the Lost City of Atlantis is around the Azores Islands, a group of islands belonging to Portugal that are 900 miles west of the Portuguese coast. Some actually argue that these islands are the mountaintops of the sunken continent of Atlantis. Wherever the Lost City of Atlantis is located, it remains one of man’s ultimate unsolved mysteries.

9. Marfa Lights

Source

The Marfa lights or the Marfa ghost lights are unexplained lights (known as “ghost lights”) usually seen near U.S. Route 67 on Mitchell Flat east of Marfa, Texas, in the United States. Sightings are reported occasionally and unpredictably, perhaps ten to twenty times a year.

The first published account of the lights was written in 1957, and this article is the sole source for anecdotal claims that the lights date back to the 1800s. Reports often describe brightly glowing basketball sized spheres floating above the ground, or sometimes high in the air. Colors are usually described as white, yellow, orange or red, but green and blue are sometimes reported. The balls are said to hover at about shoulder height, or to move laterally at low speeds, or sometimes to shoot around rapidly in any direction. They often appear in pairs or groups, according to reports, to divide into pairs or merge together, to disappear and reappear, and sometimes to move in seemingly regular patterns. Their sizes are typically said to resemble soccer balls or basketballs.

10. Tsunami – a Natural Disaster or Nuclear Experiments

Source

The earthquake that devastated the Indian Ocean on December 26, triggering mammoth waves called tsunami, “was possibly” caused by an Indian nuclear experiment. India, in its heated nuclear race with Pakistan, had lately received sophisticated nuclear know-how from Israel, which showed readiness to cooperate with India in experiments to exterminate humankind

During his press conference at the Jakarta summit, United Nations Emergency Relief Coordinator Jan Egeland took time to address that the recent Asian Tsunami had been triggered by an Indian nuclear experiment.The paper claims, according to these reports, that India has been experimenting with this technology – and other nuclear devices – in the region of the Indian Ocean known as ‘the Fire Belt,’ which housed the epicenter of the earthquake. however, geologists labeled that region “The Fire Belt” for being “a dangerous terrain that can move at anytime, without human intervention”.
