Todays Tour Guide: Bunz
February
is for Valentines
What you say? February? But this is
the January edition of HOT off the Press! Yes Gentle
Reader......Miss Bunz knows what month it is, but being
the romantic that she is, thinks you need time to plan a
nice Valentine getaway with/for your honey.
Paris????
hmmmmmmmm
Most people who come to Paris have a dream, an image of
what the city will be. This image
is derived from films, books, other travelers, even
perfume ads. The unusual thing about Paris is that almost
everyone finds their dream to be true. The City of Light,
the City of Love is everything you imagined and more.
Overcrowded, overpriced, overvisited, yes. But also the
most magical city in France, and, for many people, in the
world.
Paris is one of those cities where taking in the street
life should claim as much of your time as sightseeing in
churches or museums. A gourmet picnic in the Bois de
Boulogne, a sunrise pilgrimage to the Seine, an afternoon
of bartering at the flea market--Paris bewitches you with
these kinds of experiences. For all the Louvre's beauty,
you'll probably remember the Latin Quarter's crooked
alleyways better than the 370th oil painting of your
visit.
San
Francisco "City of Sweethearts"
Cuddle up with your sweetie on Valentine's Day in San
Francisco. San Francisco, perched at the edge of the
continent, is truly one of the world's great cities. It's
the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area, a port city with
saltwater in her veins, gold fever in her past, and the
danger of earthquakes
whispering in her ears. The city is small, with 750,000
residents nestled within a seven-by-seven-mile tip of
land between San Francisco Bay and the
Pacific Ocean. Like any great city, San Francisco is
recognizable by her famous landmarks. Who doesn't
instantly identify San Francisco when they see the Golden
Gate Bridge, the TransAmerica Pyramid, Lombard Street or
Cable Cars! You can leave your heart in San
Francisco.......but don't do it ........bring the romance
back home.
A great website with all the info you could ever need for
a great time in SF is located at: http://www.sfvisitor.org/visitorinfo/index.html
Las
Vegas - Get Married Quick ......and Cheap
The greatest by far webpage for getting married in Las
Vegas is at www.lasvegasweddingchapels.com ......from the
simple to the sublime from Elvis to elves, from formal to
naked........it's all here. I add this location to my
article, because I, myself wanted to tie the knot in an
Elvis style wedding ceremony, but alas, my other half Mr.
Bunz (or Zorro as he used to be called) was not up for
that much excitement. So if you do take my suggestion,
please send photos and let me know how it turned out.
Whatever you decide to do for Valentine's Day, do
something - buy some chocolate or a rose, or even just a
card....make a card yourself....paint yourself
red....shoot yourself with Cupid's arrow if you have no
one special....say I love you to someone....and mean it!
