Cruise or a resort this holiday season? Hmmm, well in case you're trying to make a decision, then read on.

Language Mistakes

CNN posted online an article with findings from a new survey from 300 British travelers revealing common and funny mistakes travelers make abroad. The survey was conducted by Owners Direct, a company that advertises vacation properties. The article talked about a traveler in Greece calling an elderly woman a squid mixing up ‘good morning which is ‘kalimera’ with ‘calamari’. Or someone else who asked for her ‘head baked al forno’. ‘Al forno’ means food from the oven. All she wanted was a hair dryer. Many travelers interviewed admitted to having said they wished’ good morning’ instead of ‘good night.’ This survey found that 95% of respondents try to talk to locals in their native language. CNN says the most commonly used vocabulary was ‘hello’, ‘please’, ‘thank you’, ‘goodnight’, ‘where are the toilets?’ and ‘ a bottle of house red, please.’

Turks and Caicos? Canadian Ties?

According to an article on NationalPost.com, Sir Robert Borden, the prime minister, was the first to broach the idea of a link between Canada and the sunny Turks and Caicos, the 40-island archipelago southeast of the Bahamas. Ralph Higgs, director of the TCI tourism board, was a member of a delegation that travelled to Ottawa in 1987 to discuss the possibility of Turks and Caicos becoming the 11th province of Canada. The Mulroney government nixed the idea. Providenciales, or Provo, wasn’t really populated 20 years ago, only three resorts on Grace Bay Beach. Today, Grace Bay gets rave reviews and it’s also home to the famous Seven Stars Resort. Tourism statistics, according to the article, show that between 2008 and 2009, there was an increase of 20% in Canadians visits. With Americans, the increase was 4.4%. Grace Bay Beach attracts lots of celebrities too, including Shaquille Oneal.

I Miss The Seven Stars Resort

Turks and Caicos is such a dreamy destination, the sun, the sand, the sea, the palm trees, and the weather doesn’t get better than that. All you want to do is lay out in the sun, get comfortable on your beach towel and doze off while the sun rays caress your skin. My vacation at the Seven Stars Grace Bay Resort was awesome. I spend entire afternoons relaxing by the salt-water pool too, listening to music on my ipod and applying and reapplying my sunscreen. Just writing about Grace Bay makes me want to be there all over again. It was so peaceful and quiet and the service at the Seven Stars Hotel was great too. The entire staff helped whenever they can, all I needed or wanted I just asked for and got, it really couldn’t have been a better vacation. I had packed so many clothes thinking I would change outfits a lot, but I ended up just relaxing and being so casual the whole time. The two things I did wear a lot was my bathing suit and flip-flops. Now that I’m back in the snow, I would do anything to be back at Grace Bay beach in the Provo.

I Can’t Wait To Go Back To Seven Stars Resort

Wow, what a great, relaxing vacation I just had with my husband. Some much needed time off from the stresses of work and the holidays. Turks and Caicos is magnificent and the Seven Stars Resort even better. Our oceanfront, junior sure was superb, it was spacious with gorgeous views of Grace Bay Beach and the bed was so, so comfortable, I could sleep in it forever. But of course, I got up from time to time to enjoy the salt-water pool on the premises. I spent days just lounging around and soaking up the sun. I wish I can be there. A friend of ours had told us about Seven Stars Hotel in Turks and Caicos, they said they had a great time vacationing here and even showed us pictures.
