Hotel and food in Rome

I use the Venere site for hotels here in Italy. You can sort by location in the city using the map and then by price, ratings by past guests or other criteria. There are around 600 hotels in the database for Rome alone. Prices vary a lot on a given hotel depending on exactly when you'll be here; you'll need to check your specific dates. Generally, there are more cheaper places around the train station or further out. The area around the train station is reasonable - there's good access to public transportation, or it's not too far to walk to some of the attractions - the Colosseum is about 20 minutes on foot. One place that you might want to look at for your specific dates is the Hotel Romano which is right across the street from the Forum and just up the street from the Colosseum: http://www.venere.com/hotels/rome/hotel-... . You could also consider a convent stay - sometimes that's cheaper.If you arrive at Fiumicino airport, just take the Leonardo Express train to Roma Termini station. It's a direct connection that takes about 31 minutes with no other stops - cost: 11 euro. From there you can get a cab, bus, metro, or walk to your hotel depending on where it is. If you arrive at Ciampino airport, you can take a bus to Roma Termini or catch the bus to the Ciampino train station and take the train to Roma Termini.Food prices vary a lot depending on where and what you eat. Generally, the food is better and cheaper if you're a little away from the immediate vicinity of the tourist attractions. Menus are posted outside the restaurants and you can check for something that interests you and is within your budget.

Entry into the main sites in Luxor

I have included a list of all major archaeological sites and monuments in Egypt .
The prices are fixed and for admittance only.
If you require a guide it is best to make arrangements with a local tour agency for day excursions which will include lunch,transport and a guide and cost you around 100 LE.
The admittance to The Valley of the Kings allows you to enter 3 tombs and does not include that of Tutankhamun which is a separate ticket and costs 80LE.
I really don't recommend tourists paying extra to enter the tomb as it is very small and not particularly interesting in comparison to others you can see much more of an impression of Tutankamun's life including his chariots, gilded shrines and gold funerary masks in the special room at the Cairo Museum

There are so many shisha cafes in Luxor and Aswan you will have no problems finding one.Just ask any calaboosh or taxi driver and they will take you to one they recommend.
A trip from your hotel to a shisha cafe should cost you no more than 5LE.
Many of the hotels also have shisha pipes available for guests so you can smoke it in the foyer or in your room if you wish.
My Egyptian husband has just informed me that it costs around 20-30 LE for shisha at a good hotel.
In Aswan a trip to Elephantine island is recomended and you can get some great bargains at the Nubian bazaar.
If you have time take a trip out to see the granite quarries this is where the granite found in the Kings chamber of the Great Pyramid came from,you also can see the enormous unfinished obelisk and watch the locals give a demonstration of just how granite was cut in the Old Kingdom.
Ahlan wa ahlan, Mahahbra to Luxor.

Jurassic Park drop in Islands of Adventure

It is a very fast drop. So fast that you hardly have time to get nervous or scream. You get very little, if any, air time during the drop. There is a fairly huge lap bar that will hold you in. Personally I find the drop in Dudley Do Right's Ripsaw Falls much more exciting. Don't get yourself all worked up over something that takes essentially three seconds. It looks and sounds worse than it is. On a side note, I have ridden it many times and have never gotten very wet

The more dangerous areas/neighborhoods in Buenos Aires

Most people will tell you La Boca or Retiro or Once, but it really matters more as to how you hold yourself. If you are smart, watch your back and be careful (but not overtly worried or jumpy) you should be fine in most areas. At the same time, if you are dumb and loud and flash around your money or camera out in the open, you can get robbed no matter where you are. I know people who lived in the "bad" areas but were fine, and I know others who lived in the "nicer" areas (Palermo and Recoleta) and still got robbed because they didn't use common sense. So, as long as you are careful, you shouldn't have many problems in BA. Hey, at least it is safer than Rio!

Something cool and unique about Argentina

where you go to in this region, you are bound to find something unique. ... little slower paced, why not visit Cordoba, the second largest city in Argentina

Argentina is an enormous country, eighth largest in the world, and second only to Brazil in terms of size and population in South America. The country is surrounded by Chile to the west, and Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, Bolivia, and the South Atlantic to the north and to the east. Argentina also shares the offshore island territory of Tierra del Fuego with Chile, and continues to dispute the ownership of the Islas Malvinas (known as the Falkland Islands to the British). In the early 1980's this dispute led to the short-lived Falklands War.

For those people interested in skiing, Argentina offers some of the best skiing in the world. Some resorts worth a visit are Bariloche and Las Leñas. Due to the elevation of these and other resorts in the Andes, the snow is light and powdery, truly a skiers dream! Remember, the seasons in Argentina are reversed from those in the northern hemisphere, so plan accordingly.
