Access Destinations Hotel Savings At 50 Percent Off

We have a question for everyone. Would you travel more or stay longer at a destination if your hotel room bill was 50 percent cheaper than the normal rates? Let's say you were heading down to Orlando Florida. Would you be more inclined to make the trip if your daily room bill was say, $60.00 instead of $120.00 per night? Would you stay in Orlando longer if you could get these types of rates? The question does not just apply to Orlando either. It applies to anywhere in the nation you want to travel to.

At the bottom of this site is a place where you can email us. This is an important question that we need your help with. We are working on seriously bringing you deals on Hotels that no one else can get or match. If this proves to be successful, we will also work on restaurant deals, ticket deals and dinner theater deals to boot. Thank you in advance to all who answer this question.

Walt Disney and Orlando Florida Tourism Numbers Down

While we were down in Orlando Florida, we noticed that travel and tourism is way down in the magical kingdom area. Although busy, the overall numbers are not where they used to be. We have not studied the Williamsburg market as of late, but we are pretty sure the numbers are not so great there either. While in Florida, we signed a number of new contracts and we are working on a national level now instead of just the Southern and Eastern part of Virginia. We are also working on bringing new deals to everyone to help make life more interesting.

In case anyone was wondering, tickets to the Disney parks went up about a month ago. Average price into any of the parks is now around $80.00 per person per day. Multiple days per person can bring the price down to about $60.00 per person. That's all pretty pricey. Add to that the $4.00 pretzel and the $4.00 soda per person and that's just a cheap snack, Disney is a very expensive venture these days.

In all fairness, there is no other place like it on earth and production is expensive. If you have never been there, we would recommend going and fairly soon before it gets even more expensive. It's worth the price when you see the show they put on and experience the Disney World difference.

Besides Disney, Orlando has so much to offer that one could not begin to do it all in even one intensive month. Seaworld, Universal Studios, all the dinner theaters, the shopping, the markets, Wet & Wild, Gator parks, glide boating, and so much more, the area is loaded with tons of fun and excitement. We will be bringing you more on this soon as we get through all the pictures we took and we will also be getting back to the local news soon too. With the economy in a slump, there are plenty of great deals to be had out there. Cheers for now.

Our Web Site Was Down Due To Technical Difficulties

Hello Everyone. We would like to take a moment to apologize for this site being down for over a week. We were down in Florida learning some new stuff to bring back and improve this and our other sites. While there, we missed our domain name renewal notice so the site went down. That's our technical difficulties we had.

We spent a lot of time in Orlando and traveled throughout the state of Florida learning about new markets and marketing. We also took over 5,000 pictures and videos to boot. So we have a lot of new stuff to share and a lot of great things we will be bringing to you. We have not put up much over the past month but that is going to change. So look for more new exciting changes in the month ahead. We had a great first year and we are looking to create an even better second year. Thanks for stopping by.

Minor Changes

We have some temporary minor changes. We were out of town for the month of August and missed the .com renewal. We will get the .com back up soon, but in the mean time, we are still here. Our out of town trip means some new and very exciting changes for us. We will be bringing you some very exciting new material as soon as we have everything back the way it was.

Thank you for your patience.

220 Foot White Cloud Ship, Owner Update Information.

There is a rather large community out there that follows the ship, the White Cloud. (Pictured above). Everyone wants to know who the owner is and no one is able to easily trace this information. A name that pops up often is Gary A Wingert. Well Gary A Wingert does own a boat called the White Cloud which happens to be a 31.5ft sailboat, but he is not the owner of the 220ft White Cloud ship. The owner of the White Cloud appreciates their privacy and we should as well. Though it would be nice to know who owns her, everyone should respect the rights of the owner to remain anonymous.

On the other side of that coin is the thrill of the chase and the award of being the first to announce who the owner is and getting all the recognition for making that announcement. So in fairness to both sides, may the chase continue and may the owners remain private.

Gloucester County Fair Is Coming, August 12th to the 16th, 2009

The Gloucester County Fair is coming real soon. August 12th through the 16th. This is the slide show we created from last year's fair. It's also the slide show we kicked this site off with. Having attended this event for the past few years, we can say that each set up is a bit different from the previous year. Buying advanced tickets is a bargain compared to the ticket prices that need to be paid at the door. There is usually a very decent selection of food and drinks available for purchase so you should not have any issues finding something to eat and drink.

Exhibits abound by local artists and crafts folks. County information booths are usually represented around the fair as well to keep you up to date with local happenings. The official site for the fair has a lot of great information on it and we recommend you visit this page, especially if you want to include your works in the fair. Click Here to go to the main site.

Of course we will be there once again taking tons of photos and some video this time to include and let everyone remember the fun times they had, or missed. So pick a day and mark your calendar now for a date between the 12th and the 16th of August.

Gloucester Renaissance Festival, Extensive Slide Show

We shot over 11 gigs of material at the Gloucester Renaissance Festival the past weekend and here is just a small sampling of the photos. We still have a lot more to go through yet. It was a great weekend filled with a lot of wonderful people. We are working on a new site for the event for those of you who missed it and for those of you who were there and want to see more of it again.

The 100 ft ship, The Prestige Lady At Gloucester Marina

The 100ft ship, the Prestige Lady was in Gloucester last week. We had a chance to take some pictures of her and these are some of them. We have more that we will get on here soon. Beautiful boat. She was hit by a Casino Boat back in April of 2009 while docked in Texas as we did a bit of background checking on her. No fun, but she looks good now. The owners were very gracious to allow us to photograph her and post these pictures on line. The story of that along with the pictures are right HERE. (click the word - HERE).

Renaissance Festival At The Courthouse, One Day Left. Sunday, July 19th, 2009

One day left of the Renaissance Festival. Though not a large event, it is very well done and orchestrated. If you are wondering if it's worth your time, the answer is yes. We thought it might be a snoozer, but to our surprise, it's a great time. Lot's of fun for everyone in the family of all ages. The people doing the period interpretations are fantastic and a great deal of fun to talk to. Wonderful music and dance. You have to come out and see it.
