Happy Hanukkah from C&O Travel Group!

24/12/2024

There is one government agency that works especially hard on Christmas Eve, NORAD. Do you know what year NORAD started tracking Santa on Christmas Eve for children and adults worldwide?

NORAD has been tracking Santa since 1955 when a young child accidently dialed the unlisted phone number of the Continental Air Defense Command (CONAD) Operations Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, believing she was calling Santa Claus after seeing a promotion in a local newspaper. The entire story is heartwarming, we encourage you to look it up and read it.

Christmas is coming, and millions of children all over the world are busy writing letters addressed to Santa’s Workshop at 1 North Pole Way. The hidden location of Santa’s workshop is, however, just one of the North Pole’s many mysteries. Its icy, inhospitable landscape at the top of the world has captured the imaginations of explorers, artists, scholars and adventurers for centuries, and scientists are still hunting for new discoveries that have lain hidden beneath the ice for eons. While we would never dream of revealing the secret location of Santa’s workshop,We will see if you have the answer to this fun fact about the North Pole.
Just like Christmas, there is one thing that only happens once a year at the North Pole. Do you know what that is?
Picture the Earth spinning on its axis like a top. Sunrise occurs in the morning, when the part of Earth that you live on spins towards the sun. Sunset happens in the evening, as your section of the Earth spins away from the sun. Since the North Pole is located at the very top of the planet, its position relative to the sun doesn’t change as the planet spins. That means the North Pole sees only one sunrise a year!

At the North Pole, the sun rises during the spring equinox in March, followed by six months of perpetual daylight. The sun then sets during the autumnal equinox in September, followed by six months of perpetual darkness. Over the course of a single day, the sun appears to circle the North Pole without ever dipping below the horizon. This strange phenomenon occurs because the Earth orbits the sun on a slanted axis. From March to September, the north pole tilts to face the sun, then from September to March it tilts the other way.

It’s time for Tuesday Travel Trivia! There are never a shortage of fun and exciting things to do during the holiday season. The sights and sounds of festivals and light displays are a feast for the senses. But can you nameone of the most popular events to attend during the holiday season that span into various countries in the EU?
The answer is… the HOLIDAY MARKETS! We owe the tradition of Christmas markets in Europe to the tradition of Christmas markets in German-speaking regions of Europe where, during the Middle Ages, fairs, and markets opened for locals to stock up on necessities (primarily, meat) to keep them well-fed through the cold months of impending winter seasons. Travelers to cities like Munich, Frankfurt, Vienna, and Dresden brought the idea home to their own European hometown, thus beginning the tradition of the Wintermärkte, or “winter market.” With more appeal came an increasing amount of creativity amongst the vendors, who joined butchers in town squares to sell fun and festive items such as children’s toys, woodcarvings, sweet seasonal treats, and homemade crafts—all of course, made with love by locals possessed by jolly the Christmas spirit.

Today, Europe’s sought-after Christmas markets continue to embody this traditional and cozy charm—where countless generations have come together to preserve the spirit and warmth of winter seasons. All over Europe, from the United Kingdom to the continent, travelers can celebrate the winter holidays in cities small and large, basking in the glow of snow-capped cathedrals and angelic choirs, from late November to January. C&O Travel can still make your holiday travel plans come true and book you into a marvelous holiday market vacation before year end! Let us know where you want to go, and we will do the rest!

It’s Tuesday Travel Trivia and we thought we would do some warm weather thoughts inspired trivia today!

There we many cities with missions in the state of California but can you name the city that boasts of the ONLY mission that has twin bell towers?

It is the Santa Barbara Mission in Santa Barbara, California. Here are some more fun facts about the Santa Barbara Mission. The Santa Barbara Mission is one of US’s astonishing shrines dating back to the 18th century. It is the only Franciscan mission that’s been ceaselessly operated since its establishing date in 1786. The church was founded on the Feast of Saint Barbara, who was martyred for her faith by her own father. Also known as Queen of the Missions, the church was founded to convert the indigenous Chumash tribe to Catholicism. It is the only mission that has two founding dates, because Father Junipero Serra passed away after he wrote the first founding date. The church was designed by copying from a book of architecture written in 27 B.C. Even today parts of the Mission’s aqueduct are still in use.

Not only does Santa Barbara get decked out for the holidays, it’s also whale-watching season! Migrating Pacific gray whales pass through the Santa Barbara Channel as they head back to Baja California. Visitors can spot them on one of the town’s many whale-watching tours. Fortunately, you won’t feel too frosty on the boat or at the city’s 38th Annual Parade of Lights on December 8.

Let C&O Travel book you a magical holiday stay in wonderful Santa Barbara this holiday season for a quick trip away!

From everyone at C&O Travel, we would like to wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving!

26/11/2024

In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday this week, instead of our usual Tuesday Travel Trivia, we are going to do some Tuesday Thanksgiving trivia! Are you ready?

Holidays aren’t always consistent throughout history. Thanksgiving is no exception. What month was Thanksgiving first celebrated?
Thanksgiving was originally celebrated in mid-October.

The first Thanksgiving celebration wasn’t in November at all. In fact, some historians suggest it was held in mid-October, similar to the present-day Canadian Thanksgiving. It was President Lincoln who set the November date in order to coincide with the Pilgrims’ landing on Plymouth Rock.

In 1621, settlers in Massachusetts celebrated what has come to be regarded as the first thanksgiving in the New World. On October 3, 1789, George Washington issued a proclamation creating the first Thanksgiving Day designated by the national government of the United States of America, to be celebrated on Thursday, November 26, 1789. John Adams and James Madison similarly declared Thanksgiving a holiday. However, it wasn’t until October 3, 1863, at the height of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln issued a Thanksgiving Day proclamation encouraging Americans “in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea, and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens.” Thanksgiving has been celebrated in the United States ever since. Lincoln’s Proclamation was printed in Harper’s Weekly on October 17, 1863, to help spread the word about the day of observance.

With the weather turning colder, let’s travel someplace warner, the Maldives! You’ve seen photos of the Maldives before: picture-perfect private villas suspended over striking blue waters, alabaster white sand beaches and spectacular sunsets dipping into the horizon. The scenic beauty of the Maldives is something to behold, something you can’t quite understand until you’re there in person. Speaking ofwhite sand beaches, do you know what the beaches are made from that give it that spectacular white color?

The pure white sand of the Maldives not only looks beautiful but it’s actually made from coral. Coraline beaches make up only 5% of the world’s beaches, with most beach sand being made of quartz!

It’s time for Tuesday travel trivia! This week is an interesting one. It’s Autumn and for most in the United States and Europe, that means it’s the third season of the year full of cooler days, crisp air and Autumn leaves changing colors. But there is a place where there are only TWO seasons. Where are we? . . . The Caribbean! There are only really two seasons in this tropical region: dry and rainy (or wet). The Caribbean dry season, or ‘high season’, runs from mid-December through to mid-April, and the wet season (‘low season’) from mid-April through to mid-December. The wet or low season is also stormy, with the official hurricane season being 1 June to 30 November, although they can sometimes occur earlier. . . . C&O Travel has lots of travel and cruise options for a memorable Caribbean vacation! Let us help you find your place in the sun on a Dream Vacation! . . . . #candotravel #travel #worldtraveler #travelagent #traveladvisor #travelexpert #travellifestyle #explore #traveling #vacation #newplaces #fun #dreamvacation

Travel Trivia Tuesday brings us to Provence, France. The French name Provence comes from the Latin name “Province”. Part of this region was one of the oldest Roman provinces outside of the Roman Empire proper. It was originally called “Provincia Nostra” – “Our Province”. But did you know there is a tradition in the region that even pre-dates the Roman Empire? . . . It’s WINE MAKING! Provence boasts one of Europe’s oldest wine growing traditions. First it was the Greeks, who brought and cultivated wine here in as early as 600 BCE, later continued by the Roman Empire. Christian monks carried on with the wine manufacturing after the fall of the Roman Empire. They developed Provencal wine making throughout for 700 more years after the 5th century. . . . #candotravel #travel #worldtraveler #travelagent #traveladvisor #travelexpert #travellifestyle #explore #traveling #vacation #newplaces #fun #VinoDestinations #winetravel #winecruise #amawaterways #rivercruise #rivercruising #riversidecruises #provence #burgandy #france

How to Save Money & Get EXTRA PERKS by Joining a Group Cruise Booking a group cruise is one of the easiest ways to save money while on vacation.

Here’s how it works: Because of our relationships with the world’s top cruise lines, we get access to special savings on cabins when booking them in advance as a group. Savings we pass on to our clients.
