Tip #1 Get A Super High in Vegas
Oh
man, talk about flying high, thanks to the folks at Zero-G you can fly
weightless in space above the glittering lights of Las Vegas. Put this one on your Bucket List!
Every kid since the 50's has dreamed of bouncing around weightless
doing somersaults, flips and chasing bubbles of water. Hooked by films
of astronauts in space, the fantasy lives on.
Climb aboard G-Force One at McCarran International Airport and get
ready for the ride of your life. After reaching altitude, the plane
performs a series of parabolic flight maneuvers which produces windows
of weightlessness long enough to practice your flips, dips, spins and
Olympic sized leaps. It's a multitude of fantasies rolled into one; a
sky diving free fall (without the wind and no worries about chute
malfunction), a space walk, experience Lunar 1/16 gravity or walk like
a Martian at 1/3 gravity. If you're not brave enough to jump out of an
airplane, this is definitely the next best thing. Have a look at some
of their video's, they're hysterical - GoZeroG! (MORE)

Tip #2 Now THIS is What I Call Romantic!
Imagine
this, you and your beloved wing your way to Tahiti to stay in one of
only five Polynesian bungalows stretched along the powdery white sand
beach at the Pearl Guest House on the island of Manihi. I call your
partner 'your beloved' because anyone who would spring for the cost of
a vacation to Tahiti these days is truly a person of magnanimous
gestures and unprecedented generosity. Although to be honest, the Pearl Guest Houses Havaiki
are tops among the few affordable lodgings in Tahiti. The island of
Manihi is world famous for the Tahitian black pearl farms which dot its
pristine waters.
So here's the part that gives me the goose bumps of anticipation!
Guests are invited to play "pearl lottery" for about $25. 'Your
beloved' is invited to snorkel out to the black lipped oyster beds and
choose a promising mollusk. Upon returning, co-owner Joachim assists
you both in opening the shell and whatever treasure awaits inside is
yours to keep. The possible shapes of a Tahitian black pearl range from
baroque, to teardrop or perhaps perfectly round. You also get to keep
the shell, which is often as beautiful and captivating as the pearl
itself. (MORE)

Tip # 4 Take An RV Tour In Europe
Bring
your love of RVing to Europe this summer! I've always thought RV
adventuring was an American thing, 'get your motor running, head out on
the highway' across the United States, but I'm clearly very wrong!
Europe, Australia and New Zealand (to name a few) all have thriving RV
and campground industries. In fact, joining an RV tour through Europe
may be the best way to travel off the beaten path and see multiple
countries in one outing.
We've found two tour companies that offer wonderful itineraries to
wind your way through Europe for a month or more in the company of
other RV enthusiasts: European Motorhome Tours and European RV Tours. Traveling
with either of these companies is a terrific way to enjoy the company
of folks from different counties and experience many cultures all in
one small friendly group. (MORE)
