Animal hospital - Turtle Beach Style

Advantages: Guaranteed to see a logger head, the staff are totally devoted to the cause
Disadvantages: It is soul destroying and very upsetting seeing the turtles in this state

...for the endangered loggerhead turtles the sanctuary will also look after the more common green sea turtles, although I didn?t notice any during my visit, which I found strange. Surely the sea turtles get hit by the propellers, or are they more intelligent than the loggerheads and move out of the way of the boats? Or is it that the seat turtles are not considered as highly as the loggerheads therefore the injured ones are not reported when they are found? Whatever the reason there were no sea turtles at the sanctuary. Located on Turtle Beach, the turtle sanctuary is ideally located for the purpose it was set up for. The premises, if you can call them that, consist of no more than a metal frame with a roof on the top. There are no in-fill panels or walls and it is totally open. Under the roof are numerous large holding tanks used to house the turtles...

Turtle Beach wedding

Advantages: clean, close to the beach
Disadvantages: value for money, service

...Myself, my husband and two children went to the Turtle Beach Resort in Barbados in October 2007 to get married. On arrival we were greeted by a rather rude receptionist called Kacedy, She had no idea of any answers to our questions regarding our wedding and told us to ask somebody else. We were then brought up a Rum cocktail which was vile. Within the first 10 minutes of arriving i just wanted to go home. After about an hour we were escorted to our room and our bags were taken down by a member of staff on a trolley. Our room was very nice,it was decorated in bright exotic colours which i thought was really nice. We had a terrace instead of a balcony which our travel agent advised because of the children, although a balcony would have been much safer with the children as our room opened right onto the swimming pool and my youngest...

Turtle Beach Hotel Barbados WOW

Advantages: Every whim is catered to
Disadvantages: Sea a little rough for small children

...Went to Turtle Beach Hotel to get married. Have to say it was fabulous. It is a large hotel on the South Coast of Barbados, 20 minutes from the airport. It has around 164 rooms, each one is bright, airy and clean, with air con, ceiling fan, television and fridge. This is an all inclusive resort and there are 3 restaurants to choose from, all serving lovely food, some times it was buffet and sometimes it was a la carte. You can find great deals, but I think this hotel is a little pricey, I have seen varying prices, for June you could go for a week for a price of 204 GB pounds per night for the room, which includes all inclusive food and drinks. Flights, you can get a flight with XL Airways for approx 450 GB pounds depending on when you go. There is plenty to do, lovely swimming pools, first class pure white sandy beach, but...

Turtle Stops Dirty Dogs

Advantages: A washable doormat which prevents most dirt being walked into the house.
Disadvantages: My dogs like eating them!

...Wiping feet is one of the few things that husbands are more easily trained to do than dogs. I've managed to train dogs to wait at the door for feet to be wiped but that's as far as I've got. One day a friend passed me a leaflet for Turtle? Mats Classic Range. A large dog with muddy paws was walking across a Turtle Mat and the implication was that it would emerge at the other end with clean paws. I was sceptical. Well, when you've got a couple of Rhodesian Ridgebacks who are international standard at getting dirty you've every right to be sceptical. We used to have lawns, but in wet weather we regularly had more of it in the house than outside, to the extent that the word "lawn" became an indication of location rather than a description of content. Turtle Mats have 100% cotton pile on either a latex (for use on smooth...

Bondi Beach

Advantages: read opp
Disadvantages: read opp

...BONDI Bondi beach is perhaps the most famous beach in Australia if not the World. The glowing white sand, the cool breeze from the sea and the glorious whether make it one of the greatest tourist?s attractions in Australia. Everyone will tell you if you are in Sydney you have to go to Bondi Beach, and they are right, Bondi is one of the best experiences a tourist can have. History: Bondi Beach is located in the Area of Bondi, which is in Vaucluse, Sydney with an area population of about 10,000. Bondi which is originally an Aboriginal word means ?water breaking over rocks or noise of water breaking over rocks?. Between 1855 and 1877 the area was under private ownership and it was used to allow people to come and use the area as a leisure ground and picnic spot. Eventually the area of Bondi and the beach was taken over by...

Turtle power

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...The Turtles were a mid-to late 1960's Californian band headed by singers Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman. Originally starting out as a surf band, by the middle of the decade they had shaped a sound of harmonious power pop and were one of the few home-grown acts to compete with the British invasion of the US charts at the time. Their biggest hit was in 1967 when they took Happy Together to the top of the US charts, but with the new decade looming and heavier acts like Hendrix breaking through, it was all over for them by 1969. However, they left a legacy of good solid pop songs, of which this compilation is all about. Though you might not have heard of them, I think you'll recognise some of the hits. First recorded by The Byrds, You Showed Me is a measured love song, taken at a slower speed than the original. It was this...

On The Beach

Advantages: Sensual guitar solos's ; Good lyrical craftsmanship ; A good folk rock offering
Disadvantages: Some may find certain songs depressing ; Not as good as Young's pervious three iconic albums ; Not much in the way of linear notes

...one of the best live albums ever created. Then my curiosity took me into the weird and wonderful 'On the beach' lp. Neil Percival Young was born on November 12th, 1945 in Toronto, Canada. His father was a great talent himself a sportswriter and novelist. He spent the majority of his youth in a small town called Omemee, which he later wrote his hit song 'helpless' on. Tragically when he was six years old he caught a bad case of polio which weakened the left side of his body badly, he still walks with a limp as a result. His parents divorced when he was 12 and he moved back to Winnipeg with his mother and attended the local high school. He played in a variety of local rock outfits before befriending fellow folk stars Joni Mitchell and Steven Stills. He had fair success with a band called 'The buffalo Springfield' which projected...

A Real Peach of a Beach!!

Advantages: A beautiful clean beach with something for everyone!
Disadvantages: It's so far away!!

...We usually like to try a new place every year for our summer holidays but this year we decided to return to the resort of Puerto Rico on the island of Gran Canaria after staying there last year. One of the main reasons for the return was the fact that we loved the apartments we had stayed in last year and the other main reason was for the wonderful Amadores Beach. Not being a family of beach lovers after visiting this beach once, we were totally hooked and just couldn?t get enough of it! Set with the unusual backdrop of newly built, extraordinary and very classy looking hotels built into the high volcanic rock the Amadores beach should not be missed. The beach itself is actually manmade and almost forms a complete circle with the sand being crescent shaped with huge boulders then arching out into the water leaving only a fairly...

Avonmouth Beach

Advantages: Easy parking, right on the beach, enough to keep you occupied all day.
Disadvantages: Seaweed

...I am going to admit that I must be mad. I am about to tell many readers about this little known beach in Mudeford, Christchurch, near Bournemouth and hence risk this quite little haven being bombarded with Ciao members. I have been a regular visitor to Mudeford for many years and never tire of this easy to reach beach . So it's about time I shared this secret area with you all, though I might regret this decision. ****** HOW TO GET THERE ******* Avonmouth Beach is in Christchurch, Dorset. Christchurch town centre with its very quaint shops is not over crowded even in peak season. With very easy parking facilities, this makes for an ideal holiday destination in the U.K. Leave the M3 and join the M27 at the M3 J13-J14 junction direction Bournemouth, M27, So'ton Docks. M27 Eastbound J4 -J 7. M3 - Southampton East...
