Boing 747 Flight Guides

By Ager Sovson


Americans often like to go abroad on Holiday so that they can experience a variety of different cultures and traditions. Most Americans fly to other countries rather than flying internally. International travel is quickly becoming more and more popular for everyone in America.

Many people are booking holidays and honeymoons abroad rather than staying in their home country. Business travel is also becoming increasingly popular, as is the availability of low price family holidays. If you are considering becoming one of these people that goes on holiday to other countries then there are some very important things that you need to bear in mind. You will for example have to be aware of all of the rules and laws of the country you are visiting so that you don't risk upsetting anyone.

Different countries have very different laws, however few people actually realise that the air travel regulations are also different in some countries. Many people believe that the rules in the united states are the same all the world over, but that just isn't the case.

Most countries enforce the same world, however there are sometimes some differences. This is why you will want to make sure you are familiar with all of these rules and regulations before travelling. It's pretty easy to find out about these regulations by contacting your Embassy or talking directly to the airport that you are travelling to.

Not everyone spends time researching the various different rules and regulations in the different countries, some people just fly there and then find out about the rules and regulations the hard way. It is a good idea to be sensible even if you don't want to research the rules, you should use your common sense when deciding what to put in your bags and not letting anyone else touch them. If you are at all in doubt about what is happening then you should follow the rules of the United States. If you are questioned or find that you have done something wrong, then whatever you do don't argue. Just state that you didn't know the rules and didn't know that you were making any mistake.

If any of the security staff in the airport tell you anything then it is very important that you follow their instructions. You might receive a warning in America, however in other countries you may experience a number of other consequences. This could result in you being arrested, or even the use of physical violence. It's really not worth it, and it's important that you follow all of the instructions so that you are safe and sound!

If you bear the information above in mind then you shouldn't experience any problems. If you manage to think before you act then you should be safe, you will only get into trouble if you do things without thinking!

Visit Lafreniere Park In Metairie Louisiana

By David Mims


Lafreniere Park is to New Orleans as Central Park is to New York City. Pronounced lah-fren-YERE, the 155-acre green space is located at 3000 Downs Boulevard in Metairie, Louisiana. The property was originally part of a 5,000 acre land grant to Nicolas Chauvin de la Freniere from Jean-Baptiste le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville. Through generations of that family, the property at one time was the location of Jefferson Downs Racetrack. After being destroyed by Hurricane Betsy in 1965, the track was moved to another location. This left a vacant area on which the community members eventually rallied to build their park project.

Paid for with a 5-million dollar bond issue, and a matching federal grant, the project was well designed and planned. It created a beautiful, green area at which its citizens could relax and play. Construction began in 1977, and it was dedicated about five years later. Some parts of the original plan were never built, but the finished project affords an opportunity for its visitors to enjoy active and passive recreation.

A hilly, tree-dotted expanse, the meadow area is one place where many people gather to celebrate special events such as the Fourth of July. Picnics are held at many shelters on the property. Most have available electricity and water, and can be reserved through the office.

Water designs, built into the landscape, enhance the appearance and utility of the park. There is a lovely waterfall, and a 20-acre lagoon. Although the entire park is designated as a sanctuary for birds, Marsh Island is a place to view and feed animals, such as geese, ducks, and swans. Observing native plants and animals is an activity that many people enjoy from the gazebo on an elevated walkway.

The memorial garden honors children whose lives were shortened for any reason. The symmetrical plan resembles a formal, French garden. Two other parts of the property specifically for children are the Tot Playgrounds. The equipment is ADA compliant and located near the park office and the park carousel.

Some other amenities for recreation are soccer and softball fields, a 2-mile jogging track, and the Frisbee golf course. The Pavilion, an 80-foot wide structure, the Foundation Center, and the Carousel, are all places for holding special events. The carousel, a favorite among many visitors, holds a tiger, a zebra, 30 movable horses, and 2 chariots.

A convenient hotel choice when visiting Lafreniere Park is the Holiday Inn in Metairie. Near the New Orleans Airport, it offers easy access to attractions in Jefferson Parish. A smoke-free hotel, it provides all amenities needed for business travel, weekend trips, or extended stays. Some services offered are outdoor pool, guest laundry, fitness center, room service, free kid meals at the on-site grill, in-room coffee maker, refrigerator, and 32-inch TV, gift shop, and complimentary airport shuttle and Wi-Fi.

Local Hotel Is Ideal For Hank Williams Museum In Montgomery, AL

By Chris Matthews


Hank Williams, who died at the age of 29 in 1953, is regarded as one the greatest stars of American country music. He had 11 number ones in the years leading up to his death, which was most likely caused by a mixture of alcohol and pain killers. Many of his songs have been covered by other major country stars, and other have been covered by blues and rock legends. Hank was born in Alabama, and the Hank Williams Museum is in Montgomery.

Hank Williams was born in a log cabin, in Mount Olive, Alabama. He was christened Hiram King Williams. It is said that he was named after King Hiram I of Tyre, a contemporary of King Solomon, and a man who according to legend, was one of the three men who founded the Masons.

Hiram suffered from birth with spina bifida, which caused considerable pain. This was a cause of his later alcohol and drug abuse. In 1937 he renamed himself Hank, and managed to get noticed by WSFA radio in Montgomery. After some appearances on radio he was awarded a salary of $15 per week, for which he did two shows every week.

The salary from WSFA helped Hank start his own band, the Drifting Cowboys. Hank dropped out of school in 1939 so the band could play full time, but when America joined the war in 1941 most of the original band were drafted into the military. Many of the replacements refused to play with Hank because of his alcohol problems. He was only 18 at the time. In 1942 he was fired by WSFA for drunkenness.

Hank was able to continue his career during the war, and had his first hits for Sterling Records in 1946-7. Signing for MGM, he then had a major country hit, followed by his first number one hit, Lovesick Blues. He had a total of eleven number one hits in his career.

Hank Williams died in early 1953 in the back of a Cadillac. He seemed to have injected himself with morphine/vitamin B-12 pain killers, and to have consumed several cans of beer. A gas station in Oak Hill, WV is often regarded as his place of death, but he may have already been dead when his car arrived there.

The Hank Williams Museum, which is located in downtown Montgomery, has a large collection of memorabilia from his life, including the baby blue Cadillac which he died in. Visitors requiring accommodation in Montgomery might like to consider the Staybridge Suites Montgomery Eastchase Hotel, which is just a short drive away from the museum. Guests at this all-suite hotel have the use of excellent facilities, including a sports court, a heated pool, and a 24 hour fitness center.
