I always have it everytime I travel. The most important travel gadgets I always bring with me when I travel are cameras and cellphones. Sometimes I even bring three digital cameras. The other one is using aa rechargeable batteries. This is the dvantage because if the batteries are empty, I can use the extra ones that I bring. Rechargeable batteries are also much cheaper compared to regular Lithium Ion batteries.
Cellphones are also very important in times of emergencies. With its roaming service, you can call anytime and anywhere you want. Just only expect that you will be charged for it and sometimes really expensive. My netbook is also included in my bag especially of it is a week or longer trips. Don’t miss these travel gadgets to get the most of your vacation. Photographs and snapshots taken on your trips will worth the memories and you can always travel in time thru it.

My friend told me before that she wants to visit Karlovy Vary when she will make a vacation in Europe. Sad to say, she was not able to go there. After seeing some images of Karlovy Vary, also known as Carlsbad in English, my desire to visit this place grew bigger. Thanks to a dear friend Joy, who had the courage to drive to Czech Republic last October 9, 2011.
Karlovy Vary, meaning “Charles’ Bath” was named after Charles IV, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor, who founded the city in 1370. This place is famous for their hot springs and its colorful and whimsical architecture. Because of these reasons, it became a popular tourist destination.
The town, along with Prague, was the filming location of many scenes identified as being in Montenegro in the 2006 movie Casino Royale.

What made me busy today? I want to wake-up as early as possible so that I an do a lot of things in the house. I need to clean my closet since winter is almost coming, clean-up my computer room, do some cooking, put to order some mess in the guest room and so many more. These are only some of the jobs of a housewife. While cleaning my closet, I saw my black garter belt which I had been looking for a long time. I am happy to finally found it. In the afternoon, I cooked some foods for dinner. I always see to it that I am done cooking before hubby comes home from work. As hubby came home, he told me that he forgot to bring some food for lunch….cool! He ended up eating a lot of food that I prepared..a tomato mozarella salad with mango, soup with pork and vegetables, sweet rice and mushrooms with egg. We had a good time at dinner tonight and at the same time had a conversation too.
I am happy of what I had accomplished today.

It seems that like yesterday when we visited Vienna. Last August 2011, I had the second chance to visit this capital city of Austria. We just had some hours stop-over while on our way to Budapest, Hungary. One of the sights we visited was the St. Stephen’s Cathedral.
Its current Romanesque and Gothic form seen today, situated at the heart of Vienna, Austria in the Stephansplatz, was largely initiated by Rudolf IV and stands on the ruins of two earlier churches, the first being a parish church consecrated in 1147.

This is a beautiful view of our hotel in Kusadasi, Turkey. This was taken during our vacation last month. Kusadasi is a resort town and its primary industry is tourism. Its location is very nice because it is located in the Aegean coast.
Etymology
The name comes from ‘kuş’ (bird) and ‘ada’ (island) as the peninsula has the shape of a bird’s head (as seen from the sea). During Byzantine times, it was known as Ephesus Neopolis; under the Genovese and Venetians, Scala Nova or Scala Nuova. Kuş-Adası was adopted in its place at the beginning of the 20th century. Today, citizens of Kuşadası often shorten the name to Ada.
