Security, excitement build ahead of HK Apple store opening Posted: 21 Sep 2011 04:57 AM PDT Security personnel are already in place at Hong Kong's IFC mall more than 48 hours ahead of the official opening of the city's first Apple store this Saturday. |
Fry me kangaroo brown, sport! Aussies tucking into more native animals Posted: 21 Sep 2011 04:01 AM PDT Wild boar, rabbit, goat and venison may rank as alternative foods for carnivores around the world, but a slowly growing industry in Australia is taking to lesser-known native animals. Australian farmers are reporting an increased demand for local game supplies as they make their way onto restaurant menus -- particularly in Melbourne. Pubs are beginning to order game meat for their bistros. Philosophically, consumers are taking to game due to its environmentally-friendly, methane-free qualities. |
Posted: 21 Sep 2011 02:12 AM PDT AirAsia (www.airasia.com) understands the old adage that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Its 10th birthday "Free Seats" promotion -- running from September 21-25 -- to destinations such as Langkawi (Malaysia), Singapore, Banda Aceh (Indonesia) and Hat Yai (Thailand), valid for travel between May 3 and Oct 27, 2012, while generous, isn't fully gratis. Extras such as fuel surcharges, seat choice, luggage and taxes still have to be borne by the passenger. More on CNNGo: AirAsia and Expedia offer steep travel discounts |
Golf tourism in Thailand set to rise Posted: 20 Sep 2011 10:24 PM PDT If the Tourism Authority of Thailand's (TAT) projections are accurate, the country's golf courses can expect to welcome up to 600,000 foreign golf tourists in 2012. Travel website eTurbonews.com reports the value of foreign golf tourism to Thailand may reach 60 billion baht next year for the first time, with the bulk coming from Australia and Europe. That number accounts for three percent of the total 19 million inbound visitors forecast next year. |

Book Diwali flights now, you're already late Posted: 20 Sep 2011 07:00 PM PDT A month before the festival season, domestic airfares in India have shot up by 25 percent around the Diwali (October 25-26) holidays. "One can easily plan a return trip to Jaipur or Delhi for Rs 5,000 on other occasions,'' said a Fort-based travel agent. "However, due to festival rush and heavy bookings, the fares will only go up now. We are expecting fares from Mumbai to climb up by at least 50 percent in the next two weeks." |
Posted: 20 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT 出门环游世界时能不能也打扮得漂漂亮亮?这个问题长久以来一直困扰着身为"时尚控"的游客们。 因为所有曾经穿着牛仔裤和粗高跟鞋走在柬埔寨古都吴哥街头的白痴都以大汗淋漓步履蹒跚收场。旅游探险的奇思妙想是绝对容不下一身华尔街行头的。 出门旅游需要实用的着装,而这往往跟"时尚"搭不上边。 不过,如果说不够舒适是潮人们的时髦装扮不适合旅游的最大原因,那么下面这些不靠谱时装多年来已经成了公认的旅行装备,就有些让人摸不着头脑了。 1. 泰国渔夫裤装备描述:轻柔棉质中性款式长裤,腰部宽松,所以人人都能穿。 从单纯的黑色、亮橙色到扎染图案,这种裤子有许多不同的颜色和图案。 但泰国渔民并不穿这种裤子。 选择人群:主要是以色列人和墙头草的英国年轻背包客的保留装备,在泰国南部的部分岛屿上最为常见。 要想"欣赏"渔夫裤的盛况,最好在夜幕降临后去某个海滩酒吧,保证你能看到年轻女孩和留着鼠须的家伙在忽悠那些揣着欧元的傻小子们。 所谓优点?如果你哪个朋友不幸穿了泰国渔夫裤,那今后几年这都会是个绝好的笑话素材。 |
