Gadlinks for Tuesday, 10.27.09

Hey there, fans o' Gadling! You've just stumbled across our daily look at some of the most interesting travel tidbits from around the internets. Enjoy!

  • From the learn-something-new-every-day department: "Bolivia: The Saudi Arabia of Lithium." Finally some good news for South America's poorest country.
  • In his article "Against Apple Picking," Slate columnist Daniel Gross decries pick-your-own apple orchards as a "wasteful scam." (What's next, Slate? "Against Grandma"? "Against Apple Pie"?)
  • The Onion's fake weekly newsmag explores a question I've often wondered about Disney World.
  • Where to go for cheap dining in Manhattan. (Check out the comments for some delicious sub-$10 meals.)
  • Ever thought about trying to run marathons on all seven continents? Turner Wright is here to tell you you're not insane (and I'm here to tell you, wait, yes you are.)

Still more Gadlinks here.
