Gadlinks for Tuesday 8.4.09
Welcome to this Tuesday's installment of Gadlinks. What weird, wondrous and wacky tales did we dig up from the travel world today? Read on to find out:
- Like Rollercoasters? Maybe it's time you booked a ticket to Shanghai, where China's largest amusement park is set to open its gates next week. That looks like quite a wooden coaster! [Via Jaunted]
- Looking to be inspired? This plan by two dozen homeless men in Poland to build and sail a ship around the world is an absolutely amazing story. [Via The NYT]
- We shouldn't forget that some of our country's best beaches aren't on the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans - they're on the Great Lakes. How about this list of Seven Michigan Lake Towns to get you started? They forgot my favorite, South Haven. [Via Intelligent Traveler]
- Sometimes, despite our best efforts to get "off the beaten trail" we end up in what is otherwise known as the dreaded tourist trap. Don't fret, Esquire has a Five-Minute Guide to American Tourist Traps like the Grand Canyon, Disneyland and Yellowstone. The hordes of tourists are still there, but you'll have the upper hand.
