It may seem to you that going on a vacation at this time of the year is not a good idea, but remember that it’s almost spring, and this is the ideal time of the year for traveling — you can travel much cheaper and enjoy the off-peak prices, not to mention that if you decide to stay in Branson hotels, you will get an unbelievable value for your money. This gold resort is as cosy as an hotel can get, and moreover, it’s ranked 16th among all overnight leisure vacation destinations in the country and one of the most popular drive-to-destinations for many travelers nationwide.  So what are you waiting for? grab your family and relax!

Are you ready for it? Have you prepared the special valentines day flowers for your girlfriend and have you chose a place for a romantic dinner yet? I love this time of the year when lovers are getting together and shops are oversaturated with red hearts and special gifts, after all it’s love that makes the world go around! Don’t forget to surprise your lover with a little red rose, no matter how far their are!

Sounds exciting? Indeed it is, even though there are still 3 months to go, we are all excited and thrilled to see Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez’s rematch. In case you are not aware, the “Pacquiao vs Marquez II” match is going to take place on March 15th next year, at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada. In fact, they could not find a better and more spectacular place for the match in the entire world! Manny (known as “PacMan”) Pacquiao will fight once again against the unbeatable Juan Manuel Marquez, and that is 4 years after their legendary fight during which Pacquiao knocked Marquez down three times in the first round only to have Juan Manuel Marquez come back and end up with a split draw.

Since then, all the fans of both boxers could not agree on who is, in act, a better sportsman, and now in a few months from now we can witness the event anew, and hope that this time it won’t end with a draw. We all hope to see a winner at last… So, if you don’t want to miss the truly historic fight of the giants, get your Manny Paquiao tickets asap because even though the fight was scheduled to March, fans from all over the world rush to reserve a seat and you don’t want to be left out, do you?

Normally I like winter for traveling because you can get to see snow, especially if it never snows in your area and moreover, traveling at winter is much cheaper. However, now over the holidays seasons, traveling its more expensive than ever and finding Cheap Hotels could be a problem. Let’s say, you want to travel to Stockholm, the northern realm of snow and high prices… Landing there and starting to search for a decent place to stay, without knowing the language nor knowing where exactly to go would be a big problem, which is why it’s much better to take care of your accommodation in advance and book on of the hotels online using the hotelsbycity.net agency.

Why them? Because when you travel to Stockholm, price is a crucial factor. If you want to see snow at its best and celebrate the New Year somewhere whee Santa probably really exist, it would cost you a great deal of money, but only if you don’t know the right places online.

It’s been a while since I wanted to visit Sweden and see all the beauty of this country for myself, and now that I have checked hotelsbycity.net’s price, I see it’s not a mission impossible, it can in fact be rather cheap!

Okay, on the 16th I was back from Prague, took a few days to get used to (again) to my little pigsty, to ordinary eastern food and my ever barking dog again. Here are some photos I took, you wont believe but these were taken with a mobile phone, 1,3 megapixel cam. Sure, I photoshoped them and resized them a bit to gain quality and sharpness, but admit, for a 2 years old mobile phone cam, the photos are not bad at all. This collection was also posted on my other blog — Designers Tutorials, however I thought instead of linking over there I will just share them here as well. Enjoy!

My favorite game, I grew up playing pacman (so yes, it’s ancient!) and now I am really happen to discover its available as a nice looking glossy widget that even you can play and save your high score (only please don’t ask me how to access it, I have no clue, probably you are only able to view it once you plaid, failed and got to see the standings). Enjoy, and please repost if anything will get broken, it can happen because we are only testing the widgets in beta here, if it won’t work we will remove it, however, if it will get a nice kick — we will be adding new games every week!

Today, while surfing the net for new adventures, I found the online golf handicap software for amateur golfers. Did you ever want to obtain an official USGA golf handicap, but thought it was out of your reach? Now you can, and it’s even not as hard as you thought. Nethandicap.com is definitely the best golf handicap software ever where golf clubs and USGA tournaments is available. You can get your own USGA handicap card for use in official golf events. The site offers a free demo, which you can try for yourself and see how fascinating and addictive it is. You can join the club communit, read performance reports and analysis — all this, directly online. If you are into Golf, I am sure it would be a priceless find for you, so prepare for the PGA!

It’s been a while since I blogged about games, although we have games category here, so this week I decided to feature our sponsor — this independent mac games developer of downloadable games for both Windows and Macintosh. The great thing about Phelios.com, is that apart from mac games, they also offer rpg games. It’s good to see someone takes into consideration the mac users and works towards making some high quality games for them too.
