10 weirdest Aussie sporting events of 2012 Posted: 01 Jan 2012 03:55 PM PST Show map at bottom of page Australia prides itself on its sporting prowess. It's a nation that likes to compete and likes to win. When it comes to weird competitions, Aussies become even more determined to triumph. In concept, if not always execution. These 10 wacky events are worth journeying to in 2012. 1. TunaramaAustralia Day, January 26, Port Lincoln, South Australia Fisherman in Port Lincoln brag not only about how big their fish are, but how far they can throw them. At Tunarama, tunas weighing between eight and 10 kilograms are hurled in a fashion after Olympic hammers. No wonder the current record of 37.23 meters belongs to former Olympian Sean Carlin. |
Bangkok gun shops: What's inside and why tourists can't buy Posted: 01 Jan 2012 02:10 PM PST Show map at bottom of page If you have an itchy trigger finger while visiting Thailand it may be difficult to purchase a gun, but wealthy foreigners and Thais who live here can now enjoy their weapon of choice thanks to the recent lifting of a ban imposed in Bangkok last year. Tourists can, however, buy custom-made leather holsters and other accessories at the estimated 80 weapons stores along Burapha Road, just east of the Sala Chalerm Krung Royal Theatre, where the vast majority of Bangkok's gun shops are located. Most of the shops have been in business for more than 40 years and welcome walk-in customers, but may discourage photographs of their deadly arsenals. |
10 gyms with the most amazing views Posted: 01 Jan 2012 02:05 PM PST Show map at bottom of page Basement fitness centers be damned. There are some places around the world that make your intentions to lace up the runners and don the spandex a whole lot more inviting.
1. MV Stella Australis, Chile
Brand-new ship (well, in cruise ship terms any ship just past her first birthday is still brand-new) Stella Australis plies the glacier-lined route between Punta Arenas (Chile) and Ushuaia (Argentina). |
Posted: 01 Jan 2012 02:00 PM PST Show map at bottom of page 旅遊業總是推陳出新,引誘我們離開舒適的「太空座椅」,讓我們的異地體驗更容易、更順利、更豐富。 或至少沒有那麼折騰。 有些點子真的聰明絕頂:飛機、行李轆、8百萬像素袖珍相機。 有些則荒謬滑稽,如:可充氣汗衫 -- 沒有跟你開玩笑,它還曾試賣 -- 充氣後可作褥墊用。 想說的是,絕妙旅遊革新將會源源不絕地推出。 據我們所知,以下大家引頸以待的革新還沒登場。 然而也差不多是時候有點突破了吧? 1. 袖珍大腸桿菌檢測器(另可增設甲型肝炎檢測功能):
根據美國疾控及預防中心的統計,多達五成國際旅客旅途中得腹瀉,其中約八成個案由大腸桿菌等傳染力高的細菌引起。 比像節食般只在酒店餐廳進食更好的解決方法是:用這個方便的小型檢測器,掃描一下你的泰式米粉或印度咖喱花菜薯仔,謝絕一星期的腸胃災禍。 對,我們還想要售價少於US$50、附加在這掃病裝置的小裝飾。 2. 提升飛機窗口景觀 |
Posted: 01 Jan 2012 02:00 PM PST Show map at bottom of page 旅行能够彰显出每个人的特质。 看看这篇文章,找到符合你特质的那一款产品。 想要在2012年用科技武装到牙齿的人看过来,我们精选了一些最赞的新产品,非常适合那些典型非典型旅行者。 1. 科技决定论者:iPhone镜头轮盘
如果谈到照片,科技决定论者坚信iPhone能够把永恒的数码生活变成所有的现实生活体验。 他永远都盯着自己的相机,头也不抬,而且只用iPhone来记录假期的点滴,然后再用iPhone来PS照片,并把它们上传到微博、开心网和人人网。 要是收到一个iPhone镜头组当礼物,这位极客兄一定会很开心的,因为单镜头数码相机几年之内就会被淘汰。 这个托盘上面可以安装三个镜头:0.7x广角镜头用来抓拍全景画面,0.33x鱼眼镜头用来拍摄超大空间,还有一个1.5x的长焦镜头。 |
Posted: 01 Jan 2012 02:00 PM PST Show map at bottom of page 把假期限額、機票和酒店費用,以及無可避免必須參加的各婚禮洗禮通通算進去,便會發現2012年的旅遊時間遠遠不夠。 因此以下向你推薦該列在2012年旅遊清單榜首的七個地方。 1. 南韓麗水
博覽會的浮游生物吉祥物,以及如「海洋與海岸的保護及可持續發展」、「新資源科技」等副主題,驟眼看酷像研究院課題一樣 -- 可是仔細看,這保證是最時尚又不落俗套的世博。 是次展覽預計吸引100個國家參與,8百萬人次參觀,場內的浮動展館、耀目的離岸多媒體表演、展出世界五大洋生物的大型海洋體驗公園,及各式宏偉建築(包括2050年高科技海岸城市的模型)等,全都圍繞著人類繁榮與健康的地球息息相關這個想法。 同樣在 CNNGo: 首爾: 24小時, 24種冒險 2. 南極 |
