This is pretty much a no-brainer, for anyone who’s visiting the NJ area this Christmas: check out Morey’s Piers! Provided you’re in for having some good family fun, that is. You might have heard about this place, since it’s one of the great Wildwood attractions and roller coasters in Jersey. And as you can see from the video up there, there are good reasons why it lives up to the reputation.

Morey’s is comprised of over 100 rides, distributed among 5 facilities which are built over three piers – henceforth the name Morey’s Piers. Besides the amusement park rides, there’s a host of boardwalk attractions including two awesome watermarks – which makes this place a top pick for a Jersey Shore beach vacation. Also, this time of the year (from December 1 to January 9) you’ll get access to substantial discounts – up to 40% on a Season Pass.

If you’re planning a New Jersey Vacation these holidays, that website will provide you with a comprehensive resource to find accommodation in Wildwood. So unless you’re going to stay over at friend’s or family’s house, you might want to look over for hotel or a motel in the area, while planning your vacations. If you visit Morey’s Piers, make sure to send us a link with your own videos, I’ll be happy to add them to this post.

You know something I really enjoy about the world we live in? There’s always an interesting story lurking behind each and every thing you can possibly think about. Humanity is really just a huge tapestry of interwoven stories, if only we realize so. For example, I’ll tell you about the story behind the city of Orlando – which is currently one of America’s great touristic sites. According to legend, this city received its name in mid-XIX century, in a rather unexpected an casual fashion.

Apparently, there was a soldier called Orlando Reeves who died in that area in the course of the Florida War (which was fought against the Native Americans of the Seminole tribe). Orlando Reeves was a scout who went to inspect the area prior to the battle; while doing so, he carved his name in a tree near Lake Eola. Before the battle had actually begun – just when he was about to give a warning shot to his fellow soldiers – Orlando was killed by the Native Americans. As fate would have people, people started referring to that area as “Orlando’s Grave”, which was later shortened to Orlando.

How about that? If you ever visit Orlando Fl and you remember this story, you can still find a memorial next to Lake Eola: the designated spot which originated the city’s namesake. In all circumstance, keep in mind that Orlando is now a place of wonder and magic, thriving with touristic attractions and wonderful sights. Finding some good Orlando Hotels should be no trouble at all, since it’s a common touristic destination… I think the biggest trouble when visiting Orlando must be deciding on the places you want to check out, in between so much variety!

hedonism: “in consumer behavior, placing disproportionate weight on pleasure-seeking in making marketplace decisions; ie, the pursuit of products that provide the greatest self-gratification or pleasure without regard to more prudent or realistic choices.”

That was just to get our grammar straight, in case you were wondering. I was just stumbling across some insanely beautiful pictures of paradise landscapes in Jamaica, and sooner than I knew it, I was clicking across this website offering some rather enticing discount vacation packages, and let me tell you something…
