Morikami Museum: Hidden Delight in Delray Beach, Florida
by Cheryl Pendry on 03/11/2010

Image from the PassPorter Photo Archive
It's amazing how you sometimes come across things in the places you least expect to find them. Travel down the east coast of Florida to Delray Beach and you'll find the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, a center for Japanese arts and culture. It's hardly what you expect from this part of the state. More ...

Disney's Vero Beach Resort: Escape to the Shore by Cheryl Pendry on 03/04/2010

Think of Disney and everyone thinks of theme parks. Understandably so, but the company's reach extends far beyond the parks. To date, there are two resorts with the distinctive Disney touch that are not connected with a Disney theme park, with a ...

Key West: Living the Laid Back Life by Cheryl Pendry on 02/25/2010

The outposts of the States have always fascinated me, with Hawaii and Alaska of course not even on the contiguous American mainland. And, even though Key West is at least part of a mainland state, Florida, it's only connected to it by a series of ...

Viva Las Vegas! : A Travel Feature by Cheryl Pendry on 5/25/2006
Exquisitely themed hotels, some of the finest dining, and a wide range of attractions -- it may sound just like the description of a Disney resort, but it can equally be applied to the gambling capital of the world, Las Vegas.

PassPorter's Real-Time Review:

"love the layout, grouping everthing in precise categories is great, and the details...unbelievable from rooms to rides to tours, it's great! The 2010 passporter has high gloss pages, its great on the eye, and will hold up longer than my 05, 06 and 07 versions, however, I have a lot of highlighting going on in my previous versions, and although I haven't tried yet, I'm concerned about being able to highlight the 2010 edition and it not smearing. No, keep doing what you're doing, it's great!"

Shoe Box Snacks
"When taking snacks with you in your checked luggage they can easily get crushed. Also some cosmetics are liquid possibly ruining some of your clothes. I found that if you purchase some of those plastic shoe boxes, they are the perfect size to fit into your luggage to keep clothes dry, snacks intact and gives you something to bring home breakables in."
