From SFO to Union Square

February 23rd, 2010 · No Comments · Hotels Accommodations

Being a self-respecting Englishman, it is easy for me to admit the fact I have lived in the United States. Indeed, I embodied the cliche of the Englishman in not-so sunny California. Rather than cater to too broad of a cliche, I subscribed myself to the fog-prone coasts of Northern California. Granted, this was not as radical a break from convention and expectations as I had thought, but nonetheless, I was spared a horrid sunburn for the five years I lived and worked in and around San Francisco.

My initial arrival was an uneventful affair, though I did manage to somehow have myself conveyed to an area I would come to find out was called South San Francisco — not to be confused with the City by the Bay itself (and I do apologize for acquiescing to the use of pseudonyms).

February 20th, 2010 · No Comments · Cruises

It’s important to make a good choice when selecting your cabin for your next cruise. After staying in several different cabin types, I have been able to learn about the the different cabin types. The different cabin types have their pros and cons. Most of the cruise lines have different basic categories that their cabins are classified into based on their layout and sizes.

The cheapest cabins on the ship are usually inside cabins because these cabins are located on the inside of the ship. They don’t have windows. The first time I booked an inside cabin I was a little apprehensive about whether I would feel claustrophobic. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the inside cabin still had plenty of room and I didn’t feel constrained at all. For cruisers that enjoy sleeping in late in the morning, an inside cabin provides a nice dark place to sleep.… Read the rest
