Laughing It Up And Laser Shows

When we say you are going to have a ball in Atlanta GA, we meant you are going to feel like you have a hose attached to your nose with laughing gas pumping through it and into your system. We had the pleasure of being a part of the Laughing Skull Comedy Festival held in Atlanta GA in various locations this year and it was a fun time galore! Throughout different days early May 2010, the board of the Laughing Skull Festival organized a thoroughly enjoyable ball of a time here. We are bringing home some really great memories and emails of some friends that we have met there.

Vines Grille And Wine Bar (Orlando Florida)

Being a jazz music lover, it's hard to say 'no' when someone says to you, 'There's really good food and really good jazz music and lots of wine.' All of us had clamored into our rented bus we got from a reliable Orlando charter bus rental company here to have some fun...and fun is what we were going to have.

We were warned about how the price could climb in this restaurant but unperturbed, we thought wealthy thoughts all the way to Vines Grille and Wine Bar.

Stranahan House (Fort Lauderdale)

So you have a whole afternoon of free time and you are nursing a hangover from the night before because you guys rented a bus from a Fort Lauderdale charter bus rental company for a night of pub crawling? Can't blame you – Fort Lauderdale IS one of the most amazing cities to visit when you are happily on the look-out for a throbbing night scene.

Vietnam Veterans Memorial (Washington DC)

Initially thinking that this was some sort of a museum and thinking that we have had enough museums for the day during your trip to Washington DC last year, we weren't too keen to visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. And looking at the name of the memorial, it sounded really somber and sad, so, naturally, none of us were really interested in heading there. However, we got our hands on a really good deal as far as Washington DC charter bus rental packages go and the bus driver said that it was 'on the way, anyway', we stopped by. And boy, it was a lucky thing that we did too because the trip was really memorable.

The Warehouse (Hartford CT)

Someone once said that there was nothing to see and do in Hartford CT but after a group trip there with a bunch of friends who were ready to take a break from their everyday work grind, I beg to differ. Sure, it is not as bright and funky as Los Angeles and definitely not as up-to-speed as New York but laid-back it is.

Fairytale Town (Sacramento CA)

Fret not, little ones, if Disneyland is not on the cards during your holiday vacation, because mommy's taking you to Mother Goose land!

It was exciting news, indeed, for the kids during our charter bus rental vacation to Sacramento CA last year because we took the squealing kids down to Fairytale Town. This Sacramento attraction is meant not only for the kids, even the grown-ups (blush, blush) can have a little fun, fantasy-making time here. Oh, come on! Wouldn't Captain Hook's pirate ship interest you in the least? We bet it would.

This Is The Life In Manhattan

When we say Manhattan is full of life, we truly mean it. There is probably no better to see and feel and experience the 'LIFE' that is so typically Manhattan than to come do it, feel it, eat it, party it, drink it, live it and be it.

Minnehaha Park And Falls (Minneapolis)

The name itself might bring about a few 'haha's but the place is quite another story. It's so beautiful that once you've been there, you would want to go there again – regardless of whether you have a readily-available Minneapolis charter bus rental package. Being me, of course, I have this part of the trip down pat.

Leland City Club (Detroit MI)

Touted to be one of the Detroit MI's most happening place, Leland City
Club truly is one of the most exciting places to be. It is surprising,
being this aged, the club continues to be visited by youngsters. Oh,
there was quite a fair number of middle-aged people and working adults
but since it features an incredibly good sound system that is capable
of pumping out sound of wide-ranging music, it remains to be Motor
City's most exciting night spot.

Pagliuca's Restaurant Incorporated (Boston MA)

Yearning for the crunchiness of real hand-rolled pasta without the extranomous pricing? Love to hang out in a warm and a REAL Italian restaurant atmosphere? Well, I have just the place for this – Pagliuca's Restaurant Incorporated tucked into a neat little corner in North End. I've heard about this place for the longest time but never found the time to visit it. This Boston MA restaurant's name remains in my head for all the time that I think of great food with fantastic pricing.

Willis Tower Skydeck (Chicago IL)

Once upon a time Sears Tower used to be the world's tallest building and it attracted tens of thousands of tourists from all over the world every year. Now, it stands tall against the test of time, its significance dwindled down to merely a historical site and ripped of its title as the tallest building in the world. However, is it any less beautiful? No! We got to see it again (the last time being when we were merely kids) when we got hold of a Chicago IL charter bus rental package and visited Chicago again last summer. One-hundred-and-ten stories high, it offers a glorious view of the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan.

Fogo de Chao (Atlanta GA)

It says there in all the reviews that I read online that Fogo de Chao is awesome and the chef(s) is/are simply magic with his/their utensils, etc and you know what? I just had to go see it for myself. OK, if you are not big on dining out, here is a little bit of background on the restaurant. It is a Brazilian steakhouse which dated as far back as 1979 in Brazil. They are famed for their gaucho way of preparing the meat so that the meat remains juicy and full of flavor on the inside and the outside is a little dryer and crunchier (for some dishes). The meats are not roasted or grilled in the conventional way but they are more like burned over an open fire. The recipe and method was passed down from one generation after another and now, three centuries later, Fogo de Chao continues to fill tummies and tickle palates.

Gatorland (Orlando FL)

Who knew gators could jump, raise your hands. I sure did not. Not until I rented a bus from an Orlando FL charter bus company with a group of friends, that is. You see, we made a quick pit stop (which turned out to be a long stop in the end because we were simply having such an amazing time) at Orlando FL's Gatorland. Let me start off by saying that I only touch reptiles like snakes and stuff under intense duress. Other than that, dogs are for me. Anyway, was it fun in Gatorland? It was fantastic!

Mahar's a Beer Haven in Albany, New York

There's a good reason why a pub's crowded, it's either the beer is good, the music's good, the service is good or the food is good. Now, for Mahar's located in Albany , New York , they score 3 out of 4. The beer's simply fabulous while the service staff are friendly and on top of the game. The place is crowded like a can of sardines every Friday and Saturday because the bands they have there is usually amazing and the DJs spin a mean mix of music. The only thing we have to complain about is the lack of a proper menu. But then again, who's there to eat? But actually, their food is all that bad, it's just that after hearing so much about this place in Albany, New York, we were kind of expecting Hard Rock stuff.

Discover New Jersey The Natural Way

The serenity of being outdoors lulls your senses while the luxury of being in a comfortable resort is just the thing for wired nerves and unspent energy. If that's what you have in mind, then perhaps it's time to organize a New Jersey charter bus rental holiday trip with the entire family; one of the top spots in the country would be Holly Shores Camping Resort. Located right smack near Victorian Cape May and Wildwood boardwalks, it's been voted by New Jersey charter bus rental holiday-goers as the best family-orientated campground by Frommers Guide in 2002. It's been some time since then but it's still an incredibly serene place to be in. On top of being one with nature, you're also less than an hour away from Atlantic City and very near the historic cold spring village.

Enjoying The Sights Of Connecticut With Boat Rides

Connecticut is a wildly fun and exotic state to explore. Outdoorsy travelers who are looking for a Connecticut charter bus rental package to enjoy the wonderful state can expect to have lots of fun, especially if you're an extreme sports enthusiast. For one, there are boat rides to enjoy in the River Valley. Bring the rented charter bus for the open canoe trips which will take you on an exciting weekend escapade. Another option would be at Greater New Haven where the sea kayaking trip will take you around to Thimble Islands and Connecticut River. These boating rides are inspiring and romantic at the same time.

In The City But Out In The Wild

There's nature and a shadow of the wild within the Denver city's perimeters. For one, there's Denver's Botanic Garden. If you're heading over in a group, we strongly recommend that you check out some Denver charter bus rental companies for a bus, it'll save you lots of time and comfort when you're done. There are lovely, romantic and fragrant gardens sitting in the middle of fountains; not counting the exquisite indoor tropical greenhouse which is a sure-fire winner. The best time to visit it is from May through till October. A picnic lunch date with friends and kids is an ideal activity here too.

Hot Ballooning In Phoenix Arizona

Up the air where you can get a bird's eye view of Phoenix is where you want to be. While you are checking out our Phoenix AZ charter bus rental packages for your trip, do consider booking yourself up for a hot balloon air ride up in the bright, brilliant skies of Phoenix. The hot weather will definitely get you in the mood for flying.

LIVE in Fort Lauderdale

The sound of waves lapping against sun-kissed beaches can be a drug to those of you who like to listen to enjoy a few drinks after a hot day of baking under the sun. Shooters is not new to beach goers and it's more than a little unique because it provides for not only fabulous live bands, there's a view to match the mood too. If you're hungry, hang around and have your dinner before drowning the night away. The mood is very relaxed and calming. Culture Room is a bigger option because throbbing lights sets the stage for big names in the live performance and recording industry. The atmosphere is charged, not the kind of calm serenity you would find in Shooters.

Museum Of Discovery And Science (Fort Lauderdale)

If you think this is the kind of tourist attractions designed for kids under three feet tall, you couldn't be more wrong. I am all of five foot seven and it was a thrilling experience for me. When you Google the place up, you will see that it is filled with nothing but world-class hands-on, interactive stuff that the kids will no doubt love! It is a lot like unleashing a bunch of school kids into Disneyland or ToysRUs – I am talking about us, of course when we organized our group trip to Fort Lauderdale with a local charter bus rental company.
