New-requirements-for-travelers-entering-the-united-states
By Nomad Rick
Travelers to and from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Panama, Mexico and Canada will be required to have a passport to enter or re-enter the United States. This is a change from prior requirements and will affect all United States citizens entering the United States from countries within the Western Hemisphere.
This new requirement will also affect certain foreign nationals who currently are not required to present a passport to to the United States. Most Canadian citizens, citizens of the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda, and to a lesser degree, Mexican citizens will be affected by the implementation of this requirement. Essentially, you must have a passport if you wish to enter the United States, even if you are a U.S. citizen.
When It Goes Into Effect
The initiative requirements will be rolled out in phases. The proposed implementation timeline is as follows:
1. December 31, 2005 – Passport required for all to or from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Central and South America.
2. December 31, 2006 – Passport required for all air and sea to or from Mexico and Canada.
3. December 31, 2007 – Passport required for all air,
sea and land border crossings.
How Do I get a passport?
U.S. citizens may visit the Passport section of the State Department web site [state.gov] for information on how to apply for a U.S. passport. You should allow yourself a sufficient amount of time to apply and receive your passport in advance of travel. Current processing time estimates are 6 to 8 weeks.
In Closing
As the world becomes a more dangerous place, borders are being tightened. How depressing. Article Source: http://www.upublish.info About the Author:

Doryman's in Newport Beach offers vintage comforts
After a day of sun, surf and sand, it's good to sink into an old- fashioned bed steps from Newport's pier.
<br/><br/>
"It's nice to know there are still some quaint and out-of-the-way places even in the O.C. The location offers good access to lots of iconic SoCal sites," says reader Caitlin Tusher of Placentia, in her nomination letter.

Travel readers on hits, misses around world
Readers weigh in on places that let them down but also share some pleasant surprises.
<br/><br/>
You know those destinations you feel obligated to visit but don't really want to? Travel section readers do. We asked them to tell us about some of the places they were certain weren't right for them, and here's what they said. Sometimes, the destination was a wonderful surprise; other times, not so much.

Camping across Europe in a van
A family happens upon adventures small and large in Germany, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Belgium.
<br/><br/>
We're packing the mobi for a madcap trip across Europe to see as much as we can in 18 days. If this trip goes badly, it's our daughter's fault. This is her idea, pitched from her apartment in downtown Antwerp during a call months earlier.

Moscow on the cheap
Tag along with a Metro-riding native who visits parks, restaurants, galleries and other favorites, all for less than $20 a day.
<br/><br/>
Boasting posh restaurants, luxury boutiques and a flock of millionaires who indulge in them, Moscow is considered one of the most expensive cities on the planet. Just take a walk through the rows of tinted Range Rovers and Bentleys parked behind the Bolshoi Theatre and you'll understand why this is the city that hosts the conspicuously named Millionaire Fair.

Hop aboard for Albania coast
A casual trip from Corfu, Greece, to Sarande, Albania, is more delightful and history-filled than you might expect.
<br/><br/>
Somewhere on Earth there must be a cheaper, easier, more exotic cruise, packed with even more beautiful sights and filled with more history, providing even tastier food, but for now, I'm happy to settle on this one: Ionian Cruises' daily excursion from Corfu, Greece, to Sarande, Albania.

A $2.55 elephant encounter in Thailand
A Thai center plucks dozens of the animals from brutal labor camps and shelters them in a tranquil setting while offering interaction with visitors. You might get close enough to hear them purr.
<br/><br/>
It was, unquestionably, the best $2.55 I've ever spent on vacation.

Lessons of a family vacation in Spain
Visiting Barcelona, Málaga and Granada, a mom learns to just let the fun happen for her kids, husband and herself.
<br/><br/>
My husband, Tony; my daughter, Callie, 15; and son Zeke, 12, and I spent 10 days traveling in Spain in July. Callie had been living with a family there for three weeks before we met her in Málaga, on the country's sunny southern coast. From there, we traveled to Ronda and Granada before settling in Barcelona for five days. It was a lot to fit into a 10-day trip, but I had it all mapped out. Day by day. Hour by hour.

A tourist and a participant in Brazil's Carnival
She dreamed of being a bejeweled samba dancer at the annual party. So how did she end up in a frumpy white suit and tricorn hat?
<br/><br/>
It was near midnight and the rain-drenched streets had already stained my white satin slippers. A Napoleon-style hat, adorned with golden beads and white plumage, was perched precariously atop my head. Stepping delicately in my soggy shoes, I gripped my ruffled lace pant legs to keep them from dragging on the wet cobblestones.
