Mexico’s Killing Fields
What’s the cheapest way to travel from London to Nottingham return?
I want to travel to Nottingham for a few days to see my sister in April and I don’t know the cheapest way to get there. I have a 16-25 railcard but have found that the cheapest train fare costs too much even with that. I’ve also looked at travelling by coach but that’s not much cheaper either. I don’t want to spend anymore than £30. Does anyone know the cheapest way to get there?
A return fare with National Express coaches in April, costs £23.70, for an "amendable but not refundable ticket".
However, if possible, why not try to visit your sister before the end of February, when a return "funfare" will cost you just £10.00p return.

Carnival Cruise Deals For Those Who Dare!
As soon as I originally got word about men and women becoming hooked to cruises, I suspected they must simply be weirdos. Such as the sorts of human beings which would most likely struggle on their partner’s gear as soon as they may be by themselves, or possess pet rock collections inside their home that they introduce their friends to. I under no circumstances much considered that these kinds of men and women could even be mainstream and decided they have to have become gravely corrupted in some manner, most likely just after birth. However then I travelled on my very first cruise. It was certainly not a encouraged notion at very first, my darling became taken over with the great idea soon after meeting up with numerous former classmates and friends from highschool one night, and constantly since then had bugged me with regards to heading on a Carnival cruise like they had. Then I gave in. I fell apart during stress. Probably this is how they get a lot of individuals to go on these enormous unsound looking boats out there in center of nowhere, I figured.. The fact is, after I got on board the Carnival cruise line, and we had been headed for the horizon, I in no way looked back. This had been a surreal adventure and a specific thing I have been wanting to enjoy yet again since then! Now anytime friends check with me whether I recommend cruising, I tell them to test a Carnival cruise, and also to investigate this valuable Carnival cruise deals information to be definite they are getting the very best deal in the market.

How many miles do you travel every mintue if you are going 55 mph?
If you’re traveling at a constant speed of 55 mph, how long does it take you to travel a mile?
A little less than one mile per minute - after all, if you were traveling at 60 mph, you would travel 60 miles in 1 hour, or 60 miles in 60 minutes, or 1 mile per minute.
traveling at 55 would be just a bit slower than that.
To be exact - 55 miles in 60 minutes = 27.5 miles in 30 minutes, or 2.75 miles in 3 minutes, or 0.91666 miles in 1 minute.
That’s miles per minute - the previous answerer calculated minutes per mile, which is different.

Languages of Panama
Language is one of the most certain way in identifying a person’s nationality. Almost all of the countries in the whole world have at least one language while there are some countries that more than language.
Panama is one of the countries that belong to the latter category. There are many Panama languages. Although the official language of Panama is Spanish, English and other indigenous languages are spoken in this country.
But before Spanish became the official language of Panama, various kinds of indigenous languages were spoken throughout the country. Before the Spanish explorers came and discovered Panama, great number of indigenous people inhabited the isthmus (an isthmus is a narrow strip of land that is bordered on both sides by a body of water and this strip of land connects two large masses of land, another example of an isthmus is the Suez, the Suez connects North Africa and Southwest Asia). The population of these indigenous people, at that time, was estimated to be around five hundred thousand individuals from over sixty different tribes. Not all of these sixty tribes spoke the same language. One example of this is the tribe of Bokata and Guaymi. The Bokata tribe settled on the eastern Bocas del Toro by the side of the Rio Calovebora, while the Guaymi tribe inhabited the remote regions northwest of the country. Although the Bokata and Guaymi speech are similar yet these two languages are unintelligible mutually.
Before heading off to Panama, you might want to take some time and teach yourself Spanish.

I Miss Boracay
Last year me and my friends went to Boracay a famous beach located in the province of Kalibo in the Philippines. We stayed there for almost 3 days. The place was really beautiful, white sand beach, clear blue waters, what else would you want for a summer get away.
During or stay there we went to explore the island, we rent some APV and then toured around. We even went on to this place where you can ride the Zorb(a huge ball where you will be harness in the middle of it). Of course don’t forget the food, that place is full of tasty delicacies you will surely enjoy. Hope we can go again this year.

What are travel restrictions for a 18 year old?
I am 18 years old and this summer i want to travel to California. Are there are restrictions for flights, hotels, etc for an 18 year old?
Most of the time you need a credit card in order to book a hotel room. Double check with the specific place you are headed to if you don’t have a credit card to see if they can make some accomodation for you.

What size travel crate should I buy to bring home my 8 week old bernese puppy?
I would like for it to fit him for two months. I don’t want it to be too big though because then he will just go to the bathroom in one side of it. I wanted a travel crate so I could move it around the house easily.
If you are using it for training, you want to keep it around for more than 2 months. Consistency is key and it’s best to keep the same crate for at least the first year and a half.
Bernese will reach 100+lbs at full size so you should definitely invest in a 48" long crate which also has a divider panel to support growth of your puppy. Here is a Midwest Life Stages: http://www.animatedpet.com/store/product.php?productid=49&cat=21&page=1
Wire crates are easier to clean in the event of an accident and are excellent for housebreaking.

What is the cheapest way to travel & stay in Amsterdam?
Me & a friend are planning a 4 day holiday from the UK to Amsterdam soon. We want to travel and stay for as little as possible. We are probably going to travel there by coach then stay at a hostel. Is this the cheapest way and does anyone have any experience/tips for travelling & sleeping rough?
Check out Couchsurfing.com It may be cheaper than a hostel and much nicer. Plus you will meet some locals, which is always a big help.
Hostels are cheap, but some come with restrictions and lock outs or fill up so make reservations if you can. Eating cheap in Amsterdam is easy and you’ll have tons of choices. Check out the Albert Heine (AH) markets for already made meals, sandwiches at much less than in a eatery. Beer and cokes are about a quarter the price in AH than any of the little shops or snack bars.
Have fun!
