Six great beach reads for travelers {Gadling}
Jul 20th 2009 1:42PM A Fraction of the Whole (Steve Toltz) was a hilarious beach read. Although if you're reading it around other people they might find you mildly distracting...
Enter Gadling's "Perfect Road Trip" Contest! {Gadling}
Jul 15th 2009 5:42PM My perfect [2 day] autumn road trip would be to drive through coastal New England -- from Boston to Portland, Maine. I've traveled around the world, but still haven't seen the Northeast! (And #43 on my 101 Things in 1,001 Days list http://www.poweredbytofu.com/ is to see New England in the fall).
Day 1: Boston to York, Maine. Things to do: drive 70 miles, look at American history as old as it gets, and eat tons of salt water taffy...
Day 2: York to Portland, Maine. Things to do: drive 50 miles, look at Bush's summer house, eat chowder, drink Maine microbrews, go kayaking near the islands, ride the ferry, see if LL Bean is all it's cracked up to be, see how Portland, Maine measures up to Portland, Oregon (I might be a little biased on this one)...
BTW, my perfect looong road trip would be to drive the entire Pacific Coast Highway (Hwy 101) down the west coast -- from Aberdeen, WA to Los Angeles, California!
