Gadling Take FIVE- Week of Feb. 28--March 5

Yes, yes, yes. It's 70 degrees where I'm sitting. People have seemed to be feeling chipper in Columbus everywhere I've gone today. I'm ready to head outside again, but before I do, here are some Gadling gems that you might have missed.

Brenda's post Eddie Aikau and the Hokule'a voyage gives the back story to the term "Eddie Would Go" and news of the upcoming 'round the world voyage of the sailing vessel Hokule'a to commemorate Eddie Aikau, one of Hawaii's beloved heroes.
Kraig's post Touring the Taj gives a recommendation on seeing this national treasure of India. Go twice. I've been to the Taj Mahal once and it wasn't enough.
In his post Into Zapatista territory: Exploring the Mexican state of Chiapas, Aaron presents a lush region of the country that offers adventure and natural wonder big time.
For those of us who didn't make it to Mardi Gras, or those who did, check out Jeremy's post Life Imitates Art at Mardi Gras. The photos are wonderful.
Tom, who really is a nice guy--really--wrote a humorous piece 7 Steps for Surviving a Destination Wedding. One thing he says that I definitely agree with is to take time out from the wedding crowd to do what you want. Any town can have an interesting aspect that might surprise you.

Hope that wherever you are, even if at a destination wedding, the weekend brings you all good things.
