How To Avoid An African Safari Nightmare!
An African Safari vacation can be a dangerous experience if you don’t take the proper precautions before leaving for on of the most mysterious and vast continents on the planet.
Obviously, running into an African lion in his own backyard is dangerous but I’m talking about taking the proper preparation measures and knowing what to wear, where to go and having the necessary documents with you all the time!
What You Need To Take On African Safari
It’s amazing how often the simple things are overlooked. For example safari wear is vital. On this trip though you don’t want to be too overburdened with luggage in fact, traveling light is always best.
What to wear on safari? It’s light clothing in summer and light and heavy during winter. Days can be hot in many parts of Africa however, the nights can be extremely cool. There are some pretty friendly insects in mighty Africa so insect repellent is a must while sunscreen is also a good idea along with a hat or hats!
Be on your guard all the time, particularly in urban areas and I.D. should be with you all the time; even when you go to bed at night, make sure it’s in a place you can remember.
Popular Safari Destinations
African lion safaris are always popular. With the African lion coming under scrutiny in recent years with dwindling numbers many people are taking advantage of seeing this magnificent beast in the wild.
Some of the more popular lion safari destinations include the Masai Mara National reserve in Kenya, particularly during the months of the wildbeast migration. South Africa’s vast Kruger National Park, Botswana’s magnificent Central Kalahari, Chobe and Linyati parks and Tanzania’s famous reserves, from the Serengeti to Lake Victoria.
The African lion is not the only famous “jungle icon” you’ll witness in this amazing landscape. One of Africa’s great attraction is it’s landscape extremes. From thick jungle to open plains and waterways, if you are a student of photography then you’ll be in your element.
Mobile And Walking Safaris
Mobile safaris are the preferred way of seeing Africa. This is because of it’s vastness, it makes sense being mobile. It also gives people the opportunity to get closer to some of the wildlife. On many occasions, guides may decide it’s safe enough to do a little walking which is a great experience.
On the other hand, walking safaris are the best way to enjoy the surroundings. Obviously, with experienced and legitimate guides, you won’t be led into dangerous situations. There are many walking safari options available including backpack expeditions or following well worn trails. Tanzania, Kenya and Botswana offer some excellent walking options.

Andorra Ski Holidays Family Friendly For 2007/8 Season
Ski holiday country Andorra has transformed her holiday image over the last 20 years from a ‘poor man’s Switzerland’ to a fully functional ski country able to compete with other European countries during the December to April European ski season.
So successful has the transformation been that nearly ten million tourists visit the country each year, with a blip this year after later than normal snow fall.
And for next year’s ski season Andorra has opened a new family friendly ski park in Arinsal, moving away further still from her old image of a cheap and cheerful ski holiday for 18-30 year olds to one that caters well for all.
The snow park includes a conveyor belt and a game zone, designed to give children confidence before they ski and use the chair lifts.
Well known ski villages in Andorra include Soldeu and Ordino as well as Arinsal.
Other new developments in Andorra for the 2007 ski season include a 540 space underground car park in La Massana close to the cable car, and an extension of the beginners area in Arinsal.
Commenting on the new facilities, an Andorra travel guide claims that the investment in Andorra’s infrastructure is ongoing, and will allow Andorra to compete with other ski areas in Europe for years to come.
As well as being a top ski destination, Andorra is also a tax haven, with many people moving to the country to benefit from her income tax free status.
Buying a property in Andorra is often seen as a route to residency, which entitles people to live in Andorra and benefit from her tax haven status.
To obtain residency in Andorra, applications need to be submitted in Catalan. A notarised copy of the applicants passport, birth certificate and a certificate of good conduct from the home country are submitted at the same time. Residency normally takes between three and six months to be approved.
Once residency is granted, residents are supposed to spend six months a year in Andorra, but this isn’t policed.
One of the drawbacks for those looking to become a resident in a tax haven when considering Andorra has been that the country has no airport of its own, and is unlikely to have in the future given that it is located in the Pyrenees. The nearest airports are Barcelona and Toulouse.
Recent improvements in the road from Barcelona to Andorra though have cut the travelling time by some thirty minutes to two hours fifteen minutes.

Finding Holiday Accommodations in Barcelona
Barcelona, Spain is a beautiful city located on the Mediterranean coast between the mouths of two rivers. It is the second largest city in Spain and the capital of Catalonia. Barcelona is a major tourist destination because of its rich cultural heritage and large airport.
The history of Barcelona seems to depend on who you ask. One legend says Hercules founded the city 400 years before Rome was built. Later, the city was rebuilt by the father of Hannibal, whose name was Hamilcar Barca. He named the city Barcino after his family, and the name was later changed to Barcelona.
Whatever the true story of Barcelona may be, there are indeed remnants of the ancient Roman culture in modern-day Barcelona. For example, if you visit the Placa del Rei, a museum, you’ll see remains of old structures there. In addition, pieces of old Roman walls are built into the La Seu cathedral.
Barcelona’s weather makes it a great place to vacation. It boasts a typical Mediterranean climate with mild, dry winters and warm, humid summers. In its coldest months, Barcelona’s average temperatures are still as high as 50 degrees Fahrenheit. And, in its warmest months, the average temperature is around 77 degrees Fahrenheit — perfect for visiting one of its seven beaches or 68 parks.
Vacationers in Barcelona have a number of great options for accommodations, including hostels, hotels, and holiday apartments. These accommodations vary in price and luxury, so tourists can spend as much or as little as they like per night.
Barcelona Hostels

Andorra Aims For New 2007 Tourists
Andorra businessmen and women are normally counting their takings at the end of the country’s ski season, but after the worst year for tourism for twenty years some are instead counting their blessings that they are in business still at all.
While some might consider this year - when the first meaningful snow fell in mid March instead of mid November - a rare event, others are considering a future where diversification could be the key to their survival and continued profitability.
The Andorra government has worries too that recent investment in the infrastructure might not pay off. Millions of Euros have been spent on upgrading the roads and other facilities, while private money has seen the building of new quality hotels close to the ski slopes.
That investment was made on the basis of twenty years of continued growth for Andorra, to the extent that in recent years over ten million tourists have visited Andorra a year, a remarkable figure given a resident population of just seventy thousand.
But the investment was made for the ski season of early December to late April, when the vast majority of the tourists arrived, and little had been planned for the rest of the year. The season was so bad for 2006/7 that the ski slopes were closed three weeks earlier than normal.
Andorra is now looking to market her best assets, the Pyrenees mountains, to spring, summer and autumn tourists to try and make up the winter shortfall. And if this season was a one-off rather than a regular event it will come as a boost to the tourist trade rather than an alternative one.
The activities that would be naturally attractive to tourists and easily catered for are hill and mountain walking, hiking and pony trekking.
Andorra The Tax Haven
Andorra is fortunate compared to many regions where ski holidays are an important part of the economy, as it is also a tax haven, second only to Monaco in Europe for popularity, and equal in tax benefits.
As well as attracting new residents with high net wealth who contribute to Andorra’s economy while in residence with their spending power, Andorra has a good banking system that provides good employment prospects.
To obtain residency in Andorra, applications need to be submitted in Catalan. A notarised copy of the applicants passport, birth certificate and a certificate of good conduct from the home country are submitted at the same time. Residency normally takes between three and six months to be approved.
Once residency is granted, residents are supposed to spend six months a year in Andorra, but this isn’t policed.
One of the drawbacks for those looking to become a resident in a tax haven when considering Andorra has been that the country has no airport of its own, and is unlikely to have ine future given that it is located in the Pyrenees. The nearest airports are Barcelona and Toulouse.

Ski Resorts Fight Poor 2007 Season With New Facilities
With a completely unexpected slump in tourist numbers earlier this year, the ski resorts of Andorra are investing heavily for future seasons to return the country to a dominant ski tourist destination for next season.
After several years of attracting some ten million tourists to her ski slopes between early December and late April, visitor numbers slumped this year due to the lack of snow, a problem shared by many other European ski resorts.
While the snow would often start in early November before this season, disastrously no sustained snow periods arrived until March.
No official figures have been released yet as to how many tourists visited this year, but some officials are reported to be guessing at a year on year fall of ten per cent. Private businesses suggest the figure could be closer to forty per cent. Given that private businesses see financial figures on a daily basis most people in the Andorra tourist industry are veering towards the higher forty per cent figure rather than what could be an optimistic official estimate.
Despite good snow in mid March and full occupancy at Easter, it was decided not to prolong the agony of Andorra’s worst tourist season for a generation, and the slopes were closed at the end of the Easter holidays, some three weeks earlier than some previous ski seasons.
Andorra has come a long way since the mid eighties when most ski tourists were under the age of twenty five and looking for a cheap ski holiday. With investment in hotels and in the ski slopes Andorra now competes on level terms with other European ski resorts.
A recent investment has been in a family orientated ski park in the popular ski village of Arinsal. The park teaches children and toddlers the fundamentals of skiing before they reach the slopes, building their confidence, and helping Andorra appeal to the family ski tourists.
New investment in infrastructure includes a lake to be built close to the village of Pal.
New Ski Investment
The lake will hold enough water to produce artificial snow throughout the winter months, ensuring skiiers are not totally disappointed, as happened this year, should there be a repeat of the amount of snow for the 2006/7 season.
The ski slopes of popular ski village Arinsal are being extended to allow access direct from the village itself in time for the 2008 season, and a beginners area is being extended nearby to encourage first time skiiers to consider Andorra for their winter holiday. In addition a new ski and snowboard area has already been built.
As well as being a top European ski destination, Andorra is a tax haven with no income tax.
Buying a property in Andorra is often seen as a route to residency, which entitles people to live in Andorra and benefit from her tax haven status.
To obtain residency in Andorra, applications need to be submitted in Catalan. A notarised copy of the applicants passport, birth certificate and a certificate of good conduct from the home country are submitted at the same time. According to local travel guide residency normally takes between three and six months to be approved.
Once residency is granted, residents are supposed to spend six months a year in Andorra, but this isn’t policed.
One of the drawbacks for those looking to become a resident in a tax haven when considering Andorra has been that the country has no airport of its own, and is unlikely to have ine future given that it is located in the Pyrenees. The nearest airports are Barcelona and Toulouse.
