Nairobi Things To Do
Nairobi: Get kissed - by a Giraffe!  Giraffe Manor Get kissed - by a Giraffe! Giraffe Manor by Homanded
Again, one of the places that had been touted as a "Must do" while in Kenya. We were glad to have come to it but would not consider it a "Must DO" if you're on a limited time schedule. Long drive from Nairobi (about 30=45 mins) through some seedy then beautiful areas of Nairobi. Everything seems to co-exist in sharp contrast in Kenya...then, driving past Karen Blixen's house museum and unto the spacious gardens which are Giraffe Manor. It was... [read more]
Armenia Hotels and Accommodations
Armenia: Natasha and Lentrush's Guesthouse, Vandazor Natasha and Lentrush's Guesthouse, Vandazor by MalenaN
Coming to Vandazor I had not jet made up my mind about where to stay. Should I stay at Heghine and Ashot's Guesthouse, said to be well-established with a big breakfast, or should I stay at Natasha and Lentrush's Guesthouse where English was spoken. Both guesthouses are on the same street and as I arrived the children outside Natasha and Lentush's Guesthouse ran in and called their mother. As they already ha announced my arrival I went in to that... [read more]

AND THEY'RE OFF!!

The VT Team of Adventurers, ant1606, frankcanfly, JohnSakura, Laurel914, have been on their route of discovery and challenges for 6 full days now. If you have any spottings, be sure to give us a shout out in the Miscellaneous Forum The Caucasian Challenge. And if you get a picture of the team as it passes by, we’ll send you a special VT gift.

If you haven't read up on this wild adventure across the Caucasus Mountains, go to CaucasianChallenge. It’s an exciting and whacky race starting in Budapest, Hungary on August 30 and concluding September 15 in Yerevan, Armenia. The team representing VirtualTourist will be handing out special picture cards as they meet members, and potential members, along the way. So, if you’re anywhere in the vicinity, please cheer on our group as it crosses eleven countries on its way to the finish line. We hope the new team carries on the tradition set by the victors of the Autorickshaw Challenge of 2008 led by our own General Manager, Giampiero Ambrosi.

The Caucasian Challenge and Autorickshaw Challenge is sponsored by the same charitable organization.

Kissimmee, Florida – What do you think?

This month, we’ve got a new ad partner - the Kissimmee, Florida Convention and Visitors Bureau who is showing off some of their area travel activities on our Kissimmee Top 10 page. My brother lives in Florida, and I’ve visited a bunch of times, but I’ve never been to Kissimmee, so I’m wondering from VT’ers who know the place, what I should expect to see and do if I visit. I started a Forum post to see what you guys thought. If you’ve got some comments, I’d love to hear them. – Thanks, Giampiero

We LOVE hearing from VirtualTourist members and visitors alike. We frequently get notes just letting us know that you're out there and you're enjoying VT. Very often we'll forward the mail around to the rest of the team, to share the love. Drop us a note, we'd love to hear from you.

You can see more community news items from previous days in the community news archives Drop us a note at feedback@virtualtourist.com if you'd like your item to be considered.
