Bruges, known as the "Venice of the North," is a captivating city that feels like a step into a fairy tale. Few places in the world compare to its unique charm. With its cobblestone streets, picturesque bridges, intricate lacework, delicious chocolates and waffles, ancient churches, stunning canals, and graceful swans, Bruges offers an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful city; photos simply don't do it justice.

Where to Experience Overwater Bungalows-
People often ask me about overwater bungalows, so I wanted to give an overview of some popular destinations to help travelers make a decision when considering the experience. The very first of these iconic accommodations were introduced in the Tahitian Islands in 1967, on Raiatea, by three Americans who had moved there, opened hotels, and wanted to give guests direct access to the lagoon. More were soon built in Moorea and Bora Bora, and they became so popular that similar structures began emerging worldwide. Click here to read more: https://travel45.com/article/over-water-bungalows/

“Time is non-refundable. Spend it wisely”

03/17/2023

Bermuda is one of the British Overseas Territories in the Atlantic Ocean. The entire island is only 21 square miles. The country is divided into 9 parishes, but most visitors will likely refer to three different regions. Those include:

St. George’s (East End): Located near the eastern end of the island by the airport is the town of St. George’s, the original settlement of Bermuda. Full of historic buildings and churches, it’s a worthy cultural destination. Also on this end of the island are some amazing cave formations as well as the famous To***co Bay Beach.

City of Hamilton & Central Bermuda: The center of the island is where Bermuda’s one “big” city is located. Hamilton is home to the government and major commerce centers (Bermuda has a thriving reinsurance industry that contributes to the wealth there).

Royal Naval Dockyard (West End): At the far western tip is the cruise terminal, located at the Royal Naval Dockyard. Between Central Bermuda and the west end are a ton of gorgeous beaches and the village of Somerset.

You can visit sites such as the Crystal Caves, Horseshoe beach or take a twilight tour to the triangle.

A beautiful place to stay is Cambridge Beaches Resort and Spa.

West Virginia Spooky Road trip

West Virginia is a hidden gem in the United States
There are gorgeous mountains, beautiful winding roads, parks to explore, lakes, white water rafting, ziplining, antique shopping, winery, waterfalls, hikes, little historic towns. Something for everyone, including those that enjoy spooky folklore that has prompted many investigations called Project Blue Book.

Here are some places worth visiting-

1. Visit Flatwoods and the monster museum. The Flatwoods monster, in West Virginia folklore, is an entity reported to have been sighted in the town of Flatwoods in Braxton County, West Virginia, United States, on September 12, 1952, after a bright object crossed the night sky.

2. Sutton, West.Virgina. -- Many have heard of him, few have seen him; but now you can at least see what he left behind. All in one place! BIGFOOT Museum and what he left behind

3. Pointe Pleasant, West Virginia- The World's Only Mothman Museum is dedicated to the story and legend of Point Pleasant's Mothman, a mysterious creature first sighted in 1966 by many eye witnesses just a year before the Silver bridge collapse, the US worst bridge disaster in history.

4. The West Virginia Penitentiary is a gothic-style prison located in Moundsville, West Virginia. Built in 1866 and decommissioned in 1995, this former state penitentiary now offers day tours, paranormal investigations, escape rooms, a haunted house and more

5. Lake Shawnee abandoned amusement park- A Native American burial ground. Violent deaths. Freak accidents. Who knew a simple amusement park could have such a dark past? Explore this creepy (maybe cursed?) land — ”one of the world’s most haunted places.” Arrange a private tour, join paranormal investigators to ghost hunt or brave the “Dark Carnival” in October.

6. Harpers Ferry National State Park- Learn the stories of a woman clad in 18th century fashion, peering from the window of Harper House. At St. Peter’s Catholic Church, which served as a hospital during the Civil War, visitors have spotted the ghost of a wounded soldier and an old priest.

Time Share pressure at the Resorts is at an all-time high and you might have already experienced the pressure or will be approached the next time you travel. I receive calls and emails from clients asking how to get out of them, or they want me to sell the timeshares for them. I do not and will not have anything to do with time shares.

The developers who sell timeshares have found multiple ways to lure people in, like offering prizes or gifts (such as free flights or activities) to bring potential buyers to a "timeshare presentation." After you arrive at the resort and get checked in, they might leave a note under your door that it is important that you come to this desk about your reservation. Or they might approach you as you sit by the pool after you have had a few drinks. They will ask how you booked your vacation and discredit your travel agent by telling you that you get much lower rate, by saving 25% by buying into their program. In fact, it will cost you much more. If you agree to listening, they then subject potential buyers to a lengthy sales pitch, made by timeshare sales agents who are expert at being pushy and hard to refuse. The sales agents are trained to rebuke any objections, and commonly offer special deals that require a purchase before leaving the premises.

Do not accept the salespeople’s gifts and offers if you are not genuinely interested in purchasing a timeshare. If you are considering buying into a time share, do not sign anything under pressure, making impulsive decisions will only lead to regret, take the time to review the contract with an attorney, walk away if the salesperson claims the contract must be signed on the spot. Nothing in this world is for free, and if it sounds too good to be true, it is. A timeshare should not be considered an investment or stock in the resort chain, you are buying the right to use the property. It will not go up in value. There are more people trying to get out of timeshares than there are buying into them, and you can easily find them for $1 online.

A timeshare by any other name it is still a timeshare, examples:
• Vacation Ownership
• Fractional Ownership
• Vacation Club
• Fixed Week Ownership
• Points Program
• Vacation Program

You bought into a time share and are looking for ways to get out:

Contact an experienced real estate attorney. Although you might be tempted to look for help from the agent who sold you the property, this is not the best approach. These agents are highly skilled at convincing you of all the reasons not to cancel, and it's possible the agent might employ delay tactics until it's too late. In Mexico, there is a five-business day grace period to cancel a timeshare contract. These provisions are often buried in the contract, however, and might take close examination to discover. If you don't find a cancellation provision in the sales contract, an attorney can help determine whether your purchase is subject to a right of rescission and help determine the best course of action.

FYI International destinations update -
If you are traveling from the United States, you are no longer required to war mask at your stateside airport or on the plane. However, once the plane lands in Cancun, Punta Cana, or any other international airport, you will still need a mask to walk inside and go through customs, and security. Specifically in Cancun, the airport personnel would not let people through immigration without a mask.
Don't forget to bring your masks.
