2009-04-06T15:18:00.000-07:00

1) The most spacious seats to sleep on a plane are emergency exits, but due to its increasing popularity is usually necessary to check more than two hours before flight to ensure the site. Second on the scale of comfort usually found the first row of economy class behind business, where the site for the legs is relatively larger, although there are great opportunities to place a baby in the adjacent seat. (And sadly crying is incompatible with sleep).

2) Imagine that in a case of overbooking the flight, you will be assigned a seat in business class to replace your seat sad class. Is it a dream? Well, no, and occurs more frequently to members of the program points of SkyTeam, OneWorld or Star Alliance partner airlines in the program.

3) While it is common in aircraft delivery to passengers on a mask to protect their fragile dream of light, usually do not give away earplugs, which are quite useful for having a light sleep.

4) "Do you want aisle or window?" - You ask, and answer, except in cases of knee problems or back-stop should be no doubt. Two reasons support this decision, firstly because it will be possible to support the pillow against the side of the aircraft if a seat headrests were not acceptable, and secondly because the contiguous passengers wishing to get up to go to the bathroom of the airplane will not to wake up to let them leave their dream.

6) If the day after the flight got a busy day, always a possibility at your fingertips are sedative medications.

El Calafate is one of the most important tourist destinations which has Argentina, attracts travelers from around the world, eager to see the Perito Moreno Glacier.

When the plane turned, appeared before our eyes the huge turquoise lake. On the floating, something like white candles.

From the privileged view of Lake Argentino, which offers Hotel Design Suite, the structure is in perfect integration with the environment, since we discovered that there were no boats, but chunks of glacial ice, which floats on the cold waters of the lake. Curiosity will be the only way to liberate the hypnotic power that creates the lake, walk around this new landscape and discover the lifestyle of its 15,000 inhabitants in this place where the winter nights are endless and the end of the summer in short.

If we Paseo Costero, we can get a complete overview of the city before us surrounded by mountains with their snowy peaks. Their wooden houses with their roofs to two waters and painted bright red, green, yellow and orange make a postcard Naif. " A clear sky and intense heat (atypical of the area) will give us the only clue to the arrival of spring. The landscape is extremely arid.

The road begins a sharp descent into the lake, creating the illusion that we end up jumping to the empty land on Lone Island, similar to an old fort a few meters from shore. A group of flamingos and black-necked swans rest on the waters of Bahía Redonda. In winter, the surface becomes the largest ice rink in South America.

With the lake behind us, we are going to people heading for the Avenida Libertador, with a single firm, take tea at Alvarez & Borges, this place is hard to classify, is a bar, restaurant and bookstore, all within a more than pleasant atmosphere.

Road to Los Glaciares National Park, located 50 kms. of the people and then taking the provincial route No. 11, the harsh beauty of Patagonia is manifested throughout your journey. Front of us, the hills and left the mountains.

The force of nature is overwhelming when we entered the Andean Patagonian forest. Enter this forest, is entering the protected area, where the road starts a meandering among lenga Guindos, ñires and Calafat. Returns to the scene Brazo Rico of Lago Argentino is now accompanied with a turquoise color. We find large numbers of icebergs floating on its surface.

Our first encounter with the Perito Moreno will be in Punta Banderas. Already in the circuit, a plaque will show us the text to declare World Heritage site, this recognition was granted in 1981, UNESCO.

Coming to the balcony below, we had the ability to see and hear the release of a large block of ice falling on the water and then felt a tingling tour our backs. Hundreds of flashes were fired and screams of excitement exclamation t be left to hear in the silence of the Patagonian steppe. Inevitably, then, pose no eyes in the huge wall of ice waiting for the repetition of such a spectacle. The crisp sound of the glacier will be heard during the time spent waiting for an encore. I was lucky enough to witness with little difference in minutes, three other breaks. But this is not always possible.

Then, departing the Bay of Shadows to navigate the lake, heading andalusia Moreno. The lake, covering an area of 14 square kilometers is the third in the world.

Since returning from the coast can enjoy the icebergs that float on the lake. Here we discover that Lake Argentino is the head of a huge octopus, its tentacles, its various arms and the end of each Upsala glaciers are located, Speghazzini, Onelli and Viedma.

The mystery surrounding India

2009-01-30T20:27:00.000-08:00

The customs of India and the ancient ritual of adoration to God Elephant, are traditions that will allow us to feel a medium with supernatural powers that enable us to connect with the beyond.

India is a country full of mysteries and it is unthinkable not to try to find a medium for us to communicate with loved ones who are no longer in this world.
Always remain many unanswered questions when a loved one goes. Be for example:

Chennai, which changed its name and on these days is called Chennai and that most people continue calling it by its former name is an unforgettable experience.
Couples, still walking every morning by the Navy, the kilometer beach on the Indian Ocean that borders the city. In the evenings, usually through the glorious gardens of the Theosophical Society in Adyar venerable, where he grew up Krishnamurti.

While retaining the habit of taking chai while revising fabrics, the legendary Pondy Bazaar market, and play cricket in Gymkhanas Club at the time of the British Empire was exclusive of the British. As soon as we arrive, we must reach out to the beach, where they performed the rites of immersion of Ganesha, the elephant God, who is the facilitator of the beginning, where effigies were thrown into the sea, some of overwhelming size.

Getting an audience with a medium that enjoys good reputation, it may be difficult, our guide was after many attempts that we meet a very famous in your home that cost us quite found to be in a very remote area and very humble. In the beginning, but after a certain resentments go discovering the incredible tranquility that can breathe. Instead of going to hide, like most of us imagined we were accompanied by rl guide without any problems.

The swami took the photograph that led him and concentrate. As for us illuminate dramatism add a single candle. For a while there were nothing wrong. The séance lasting nearly two hours. When we fall asleep in the midst of so much darkness, we hear cries. The swami has entered into a trance and communicate. What we say is private. While not believe in such things, is perfectly credible. And since we're in India, we will believe.
