Travel

An ideal place to enjoy and get pampered

amper — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 15:47:03 GMT

Rich biodiversity and cultural differences are part of the wonderland called Kerala. The Kerala tourism model always has something for everyone. If you are a cultural enthusiast, an adventure seeker, a nature enthusiast or having any type of hobby, your will certainly find options to enjoy that to the fullest.

To walk through the rich marine and natural vegetative biodiversity, a ride through the numerous lagoons, lakes and the backwaters will give you a first impression of the immense range of different varieties of plant and animal life. A stay in the houseboat will offer a different experience. Even when riding in the houseboat your strained nerves will be set right by the wide varieties of different massage options. Sunbathers and stargazers will never be disappointed because the houseboats allow rooftop travel as well.

In Kerala holidays can be fruitfully spent by visiting the historical places, unwinding at the health resorts and all tour packages come packed with so much at such a short span of time. The evenings are mostly set apart for cultural events. A unique art form that originated from Kerala is ‘Kathakali’. In this unique art form a story is played out through a mix of song, action and dance. Certain other cultural forms allow the participation of both men and women.

Another interesting experience not available anywhere else is the ‘elephant ride’. You can ride in all majesty atop the largest living animal on earth. Even though the African elephant is larger in size than an Indian elephant, it is not easily domesticated. On the other hand the Indian elephant is a docile animal willing to obey any diktat from its master. A major part of the forests in Kerala have survived because by using these huge animals logging could be done without damaging the immediate environment by the use of heavy logging machinery. Logging is a destructive affair in many other parts of the world.

Unique awe inspiring sights await a budding visitor, and the camera lenses will have to work overtime in this ‘God’s Own Country’. A tourism brochure can only give a minor view whereas the real truth can be experienced only through a personal visit.

DANNY COUCH " the voice of These Islands "

SHERATON PRINCESS KAIULANI HOTEL

Honolulu, HAWAII

My husband John and I went

To see Danny Couch at the Sheraton 4/25/07,

At about 655 PM we came back upstairs luckily were second in line to enter the show room .

I had been chatting with a lady who was with her group of Navy wives, when John tapped me on the shoulder and said

"Honey, you might want to see this,",I turned around. and said, "On my God, Honey, who is that?? ( I knew very well who it was, just couldn’t believe it !!! ) John said, I think it is Danny, dear. Danny Couch was right there !!!!!

Greeting the lady in front of us! I did not expect him to be there right at the door to the show room, How many entertainers are greeting you at the door!!!I was almost speechless ( For me, that is something new, LOL } and felt like a school girl

trembling with excitement going to her first concert. Just that morning at the Aloha Stadium Flea Market, I had been talking to Patty ,( a nice lady who has a Chinese Seed and Fruit booth about Danny Couch and his music .

Well. My turn came, WOW !!!, I hazily remember telling him how much , ( I was in a daze, almost like a out of body experience }

I Love his music Danny Couch is such a

Warm, humble and wonderful person. and Girls!! Let me tell you! OOO La La, Sigh!! Danny is also very handsome and charismatic. He has none of the pretenses or aritificialites that

Many entertainers have today.

Danny came out on stage and just lit up the

Room with his wonderful charismatic presence by singing " Hawaii, My Paradise" , If you love his music and have not seen him perform, please do so, You will fall even more in love with this warm, wonderful man's music If you have not heard his music, go to his show, you will be come an instant fan.

Danny sang old and new favorites and took the time to interact with

The audience on a warm one on one basis, just like we were at his

home,in his back yard, When Danny sang his romantic ballads like Kuuipo ( My SweetHeart,) You feel like the song is being sung in your ear, just for you. Danny Couch sings the words and the emotions of any song he performs. They so truly come from his heart. Danny becomes the song he is singing and is united as one with his song and his audience and his music becomes one with you, a part of you forever.

When Danny sang These Islands

I just could not help but cry

Danny's show lasted 90 minutes, and seemed to go much to fast. Afterward, Danny took time to talk to all of his guests., we all now felt like his friends. I left feeling elated but a little sad like I had to leave a dear friend that I had traveled a long way to visit

I could write pages and pages about Danny's Wonderful Show, but mere words cannot begin to describe how I felt that night, Seeing Danny Couch perform his wonderful music.

Here is all the information you will need to know to attend Danny Couch’s Show, what I know will be one of the most romantic, compelling evenings you will ever experience in your life time
