no age limit, but i think that offer ends this year

This offer is good for anyone over age 3. http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/disneyp��

Spring Break in Miami, Florida?!? -

I m headed to miami for spring break..is that a good place to go or where should i go?

Miami is a blast for Spring Break. Check out hotels around Miami Beach for the best place to stay. Rather than give you a specific property name and location, I would suggest that you do some research on the available hotels, the prices and the locations. I have used justvr.com in the past and it was quite helpful for narrowing down my choices and booking a few nights stay.

******** Does anyone know of good hotels in Milwaukee, WI? -

2-3 day tours of Yosemite National Park? -

My elderly father wishes to do a tour with his partner and all the bus tours only have an overnight stopover any suggestions?

Following is a list of several companies offering multi-day tours to Yosemite National Park. All of these tours originate in San Francisco which makes sense because SF is a major entry point into California for US and International travelers alike. If your father isn t in San Francisco he ll have to get there to join one of these tours.Extranomical Adventures (from San Francisco)http://www.extranomical.com/HTML_PAGES/Y��Yosemite-Tours (from San Francisco)http://www.yosemite-tours.com/index.htmYosemite Parlor Car Tours (from San Francisco)http://www.calpartours.com/Yosemite%20To��Green Tortoise Adventure Travel (from San Francisco)http://www.greentortoise.com/adventures/��As an alternative, your father can drive to Yosemite Valley or a town along the YARTS route and use YARTS to enter the park. Once in the park he can take tours of the park with the park concessionaire offering this service. Below is some information on YARTS and the tours offered in the park.Yosemite Area Regional Transportation System (YARTS):http://www.yarts.com/Yosemite Tours Guided Adventureshttp://www.yosemitepark.com/Activities_G��If your father can t or doesn t want to drive, can someone like yourself take him and his friend to Yosemite? A few years back I took my elderly parents and in-laws on a 17-day tour of California and Oregon. We all flew into Los Angeles where I rented a 15 passenger van (there were 9 of us plus baggage) and we drove all the way to Washington State before returning to LA. Along the way I took them to Sequoia National Park, Yosemite National Park, Columbia State Historic Park, Lassen Volcanic National Park, McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park, Lava Beds National Monument, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon Coast Aquarium, Columbia River Gorge, Mount Saint Helens National Monument, Oregon Caves National Monument, Hearst San Simeon State Historic Park and of course, Disneyland. They all had a fantastic time and it was one of their most enjoyable trips. Mind you they are world travelers but there is no substitute for traveling in a small family group.I do hope your farther and his friend find what they re looking for and are able to tour Yosemite. Give them my regards.

How to find directions from Spain to Jamestown,VA? -

I am trying to find out the directions from Spain to Jamestown,VA for a school project. Does anyone know where I can find out that? thanks!!

I m not sure what your asking for. You would go west. Maybe this link will help.http://www.thepirateking.com/historical/��

If you re asking about how one would do this in the Age of Sail then you would have sailed essentially the same clock-wise circle route that Columbus didHead south to the Canary Islands Get the trade winds behind you and cross the Atlantic at it s narrowest point and then head north to Jamestown riding the Gulfstream and still have the wind at your backTo return to Spain you head north and then turn south and once againyou are riding the Gulfstream with the prevailing wind at your backThe above routing was also known as the triangular slave route .

Ummm.... Go to the airport, get on a plane, and fly to VA. It s not like you can drive across the Atlantic Ocean.

Why is your city/state so great or not great?me las vegas ,nv? -

its very hot 120 in the summer 24hour town

I love my city ............ Las Vegas a town with 24/7 fun 365 days a year while living away from the tourist areas in an average city. I love the summer sun and warmer (not heat to we lizzzzards) and the winters without snow. I can drive to California or Utah for anything Vegas does not have (vacation time)

Illinois is NOT the land of lincoln but..the land of corruption!It s flat,sports teams normally suck year to year.They taxed it so bad that companies left to go to any other state they could.The chicago convention (McCormic Place)center is BAAADDD,horribly corrupt with unions that 2 BIG-BIG name conventions are going elsewhere due to the..UNIONS,they have 3 guys do do the job of one yet 3 get paid for it plus the... added fee s after the convention is over that seem to crop up.It was all on tv a week ago.Most will go to Vegas now!Chicago will lose about 1 million in convention monies that those 2 are not coming there which is good.Folks in chicago should move out,yah..okay is is a nice looking town but after that...POOP.Taxed to death,why would anyone in their right frame of mind stay in that dumpwad city.Corruption,greed,hire your kid or a friend for a HUGE salary,kickbacks galore and so on.It s the #1 highest taxed state that s still...broke.And that also was on tv.Vegas is GREAT,weather to fit anyone s needs.MORE and BETTER things to do in the entire state and surrounding area s.The people seem wonderful.Vegas area is..relaxing,okay there is the strip traffic but that s nothing bad to me.Nevada,Arizona etc make ya feel better jut by the scenery alone!I d love to move there IF i could afford it but alas...illinois sucked me dry with no job,taxes and steals any true hope of real living.It ll such the life right out of you...stay away!Besides....you ll get the dreaded... loser written on your forehead from the state of sports losers!Vegas seems to give life,a gooood feeling,calming like.For $2500.00 in cash i m out of this sewer of a state so i can get to and live in Nevada or Arizona!Prefer..Nevada.YES folks,there are jobs out there BUT if you still want to make your old 75k salary and NOT willing to make less then i can t help ya on that.Ya have to be willing to take less for...a job that is if ya really want a job at all.Jobs are there just depends on what ya want to do for a living,casinos not really a good long term choice for a job,alot of turnover i m sure.Thank you for letting me vent some!I m sure some Illinois loving fool will chime in....lol.

In Houston Texas, how are the homes built by Plantation Homes? -

Does anyone have any info as to how the homes in Houston Texas that are built by Plantation Homes are?Thank you.

http://www.plantationhomes.com/map.aspx/��Haven t heard anything negative. Would contact the Better Business Bureau to check their standing. Look in neighborhoods where you can see partially constructed homes to get a better view. In Houston, it seems every 1 out of 3 homes eventually has foundation problems. Get a solid backed warranty before you sign the dotted line. Happy home hunting.Welcome to Yahoo Answers

they are nice and kind of pricey

How long will it take to drive from LA airport to Staples Arena at 6pm on weeknight? Whats the fastest route? -

That is heavy traffic time. Time wise I would guess a little more then an hour.There are two easy routes for you to take. If you have three or more people in your car, use the CAR POOL(express lane) in the first route. If not either route will do.#1 Leave LAX to405 SOUTH to105 EAST to110 NORTHOnce you arrive in the downtown area you can follow the signs to either the Staples Center or Convention Center#2 Leave LAX to405 NORTH to10 EASTOnce you arrive in the downtown area you can follow the signs to either the Staples Center or Convention CenterYou should plan this trip to take 2 hours. It should not take that long, but all it takes is an accident and your stuck for a while.Edit..Just so you know there are many routes to get to your location and everyone has their favorite routes. But what many people don t know is that these routes are easy because they use them often. For a person to navigate directions in an effective manner they must be simple. Even with a GPS you still will take a lot of time in your route because you are not familiar with your surroundings. If you are not familiar with the LA streets, then I would not try any routes that navigate through the streets. You can easily end up in places you have no business being in, and you can wreck when trying to follow a GPS while driving..I could of given you many directions that cut through streets. But then I would be assuming you know how to navigate these streets and that is not a wise thing to do. Because you asked for directions in the first place, I assumed you do not know the area which is why basic and simple directions are given to you by me..

There are about 20 other ways besides the freeways that will take you less than an hour, and are actually VERY easy. If you own a G P S, look these up and see how they work:Leaving the airport, go north on Sepulveda Blvd. about a mile to La Tijera. Turn right on La Tijera (pronounced la-tee-hair-a ) and follow it for a quick mile or two across to La Cienega Blvd. Turn left (just follow traffic, as this is a VERY big intersection with three left turn lanes onto La Cienega.) Follow La Cienega down the big hill about 4 or 5 miles to Washington Blvd (past Target, past the new construction for the light rail). Turn right on Washington, and follow it across to downtown and Figueroa Street, which is only about 6 or 7 miles from La Cienega. Turn left on Figueroa and follow the traffic to Staples, which will be on your left about 2 or 3 blocks from Washington.I m a driver who follows this exact route frequently, and I ve done it in rush hour in 45 minutes. La Cienega Blvd is like it s own little freeway, and Washington Blvd flies. Taking this route, you ll pass over the 405 while you re on La Tijera, and you ll see what you re bypassing. Also, right at Washington and La Cienega, you ll pass under the 10 and have another quick look at what you re missing (read: horrific bumper to bumper non-moving traffic).This route involves four streets: Sepulveda Blvd, La Tijera, La Cienega and Washington. Well ... ok, 5 if you count Figueroa, but it really is quite easy.My one big concern is that La Cienega might have some heavy traffic on it towards the bottom of the hill because of the construction of the new rail. If that s the case (and you ll know way ahead of time), you may wish to turn right on Rodeo Road at the bottom of the big hill, and follow Rodeo all the way across to Figueroa St., instead of sitting in the traffic looking for Washington. (Rodeo Road changes names once, to Exposition Blvd, but don t let that confuse you. Just keep heading East, and you will hit Figueroa no matter what large, 4 lane street you take. That part of town, it s all one big grid with all larger streets intersecting with all others).Anyway, feel free to look this up and see if it works for you.Best of luck !!

On leaving the airport take the Sepulveda Avenue just east of the United Airlines terminal to the onramp for I-105 East (Norwalk). Follow that to the I-110 North (Los Angeles). Both of these freeways have carpool lanes if you have more 2 people or more. Since this is roughly during rush hour and considering the congestion around Staples I d estimate about an hour or less.Once you are downtown I think the best option is to take the offramp to I-10 (West) but get off at the Pico Avenue exit, but instead of turning onto Pico go straight ahead and that will take you to Parking Structure B (on your left) where you can park and it s about a one plus block walk to the Staples Center (partly under the LA Convention Center assuming you are headed for a game or an event at Staples). There is also Convention Center Parking directly under the Convention Center and closer to Staples but it is a bit more expensive. If you aren t going there for an event there is plenty of parking across the street in front of Staples some offering short term parking. And if you park on the street be careful because of the metered parking and rush hour parking restrictions.Don t even consider the I-405 it s like a parking lot of cars that time of day.
