Is Bellevue, WA is nice city to live/work/visit? -

I ve heard it s a rapidly growing city but I heard it s an alternative to the City of Seattle?BQ: Best/Worst parts of the city?BQ: If Bellevue wasn t any good, any other suggestions?

Bellevue is right across the lake from Seattle. It s the home of Microsoft, which spurred its growth; downtown Bellevue has a Hyatt hotel that is something like 30 stories tall, a huge upscale shopping center, some good upscale restaurants... they key recurring word here is upscale. There s not really a worse part of the city. The worse parts would be considered middle class, as opposed to upper-middle class or upper-class. It s safe overall, and though the downtown area is surprisingly tall, it s still not very big, and so because of this, most of the city is pretty suburban.I suppose it s as good as any small city to live and work in. If you work at Microsoft or a bank or some other high-paying job; any other job in the city is typical of Washington state pay, which is fairly low. Visiting is largely pointless, since there s not much to *see* in terms of touristy, unique attractions, unless you reeeeeeeally want to take a tour of the Microsoft campus. I think it d make more sense to stay in Seattle and maybe get over to Bellevue for the day if you re interested in moving there.The main thing I didn t like about Bellevue is that it seems as though it s trying to be Seattle s Beverly Hills - country clubs, large upscale shopping center that feels like the Beverly Center, and is filled with people who look like they want to live in Beverly Hills. All of my LA friends who came to visit and went over there all remarked how fake LA it was.

Bellevue is great. Personally I consider it to be the classiest and fanciest city in Washington. The shopping is fabulous and there are a ton of interesting things to see and do. The only downside is that some people may consider Bellevue residents to be snobs but those are usually just city slickers who think they kow everything.

Yes, it is nice. It is right next to seattle too so you can just drive over really quick if you want to do something in the city. I like Bellevue square, the shopping center. Like everyone else said, it is pretty expensive and the ritzier place to live in WA.

I ts a nice city to live in. i ts kind of like the Beverly hills of washington state, you could say. a lot of very nice homes and expensive too. in fact that whole area west of seattle is pretty nice.

Why should people visit oregon? -

helpp with my essay thanks :)

Oregon has a lot of Geologically unique aspects. The Cascades, a mountain range full of volcanoes that splits the state is very nice. Crater Lake, formerly Mount Mazama, a volcano that erupted several thousands of years ago. Crater Lake is a very deep colored blue due to the depth. Though Mount Shasta and TuleLake are nice, they re in California. One thing that is nice is the distance to the Pacific Ocean. You can go to the snow or Ocean, depending on where you are in no time. Two very nice sceneries. It is also a very Green state. Many trees and a large forestry department. The Oregon Dunes are incredibly unique as well. There are dunes in the middle of the state, something many people don t know. For being at North end of a desert , Oregon is very nice. The amount of lakes and rivers also make the state nice. The Rogue River is a site to be seen as well as again, Crater Lake. The Three Sisters Mountains in the Cascades in something that is incredibly unique. On the Oregon Coast, they have little cavities in rock where water squirts up. The only other place this can be seen is in Washington. It is only in the Pacific Northwest where you can see this. This is because of several years of erosion. It is really a si

Pls, my friend lives in Salem Oregon and I went on Wikipedia and printed lot s of info out.I m British and have never been to USA. But I know lot s about any place in USGood luck!

Henderson NV nude massage? -

I am looking for a good nude massage in henderson NV. preferably close to 2800 north green valley parkway.

Craigs list. Plus there is a place on Industrial Ave. 3131 It is a strip joint. They go as a fitness club. They will do it if anyone will. Like $40-$60 to get inside.

A place called Queen Vixen (565 Marks St.) has good reviews. Nude massages are certainly not illegal. Prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas and Henderson, and is defined as exchanging money or items of value for sexual gratification.

go on Craigslistunder casual encounters or adult services or massageYOU WILL FIND MANY PROVIDERSenjoy HAPPY ENDING

Finding nude massage parlor s in Henderson is like finding drug houses in town. They do exist but are all illegal. Sorry I can t help you there but keep looking and good luck.

There are NO nude massages.

Why do New Yorkers sound nasally? -

That s just what their particular accent sounds like. No explanation behind it.

its just because of the area their from...its like asking why Australian or English people have accents. theres no explanation

theres something in the pizza

they don t. why do you interpret the new york accent that way?

Not all of us are like that, as a mater of fact, most of us aren t. thank you for insulting me.

Cause we all have colds!

Dinosaur @ WDW compared to Test Track @ WDW? -

I m not a big fan of rides but I LOVE Test Track at Disney. I did not get to go to Animal Kingdom while at Disney but will be on my next trip and I wanna ride Dinosaur but I m just wondering how fast do you think it goes? Like test track or like thunder mountain? And how many like little drops are there? I heard that there are some and then heard that there aren t any and I have a sensitive stomach like so sensitive that the little drop in Pirates brings my stomach to my throat lol....Thanks!!

Dinasour does not have any drops, but the ride does jerk you around a lot. You know how when you are on Thunder Mountain it has the jerky motion because it is a wooden rollercoaster? That is kind of how Dinasour, but as far as drops go there are not at all (not even near as bad as Pirates). You should be fineee!I highly reccomend you go on it, it s one of the best!!!Have fun, I wish I was going with ya!!

Dinosaur does have a small drop. The fastest it goes is about 5 mph but its a simulator so it does get bumpy and throws you around a lot. The drop at dinosaur is similar to the small drop you make at test track after the barrier test and it takes your picture and goes into the outdoor portion of the ride.The drop happens when a flying dinosaur is above so the vehicle you are riding drops down. Notice when the ride starts before entering to the different dino era there is a small hill you climb. Check youtube

Dinosaur does not have big drops. It is also not fast like Test Track. The vehicles have phenumatics or hydrolics or something built into the suspension. You blunder along in the dark with the suspension of the vehicle moving you up and down and crooked and every which way in order to simulate a bumpy road.So, it is kind of like a simulator ride in that they bump you around. But, instead of watching a movie while they bump you around, you drive through a real enviornment.I personally get a bit motion sick from this one.

its not a roller coaster and its nothing like test track. there are no drops and it doesn t go super fast or anything. basically you are sort of off roading you feel bumps and at some points you speed up a bit to get out of danger . its fairly dark and dinosaurs are chasing you so its intense but not the same type of intense that you would get from going down hills or accelerating.

Dinosaur does not have any big drops and does not go very fast. But, things pop out at you and it s very jerky.

What is it called when you stay in a hotel with a living space? Looking for cheap hotel in Florida? -

Im trying to plan my senior spring break, and me and my friends want to go to Florida. Since money is tight for all of us, we are trying to keep our trip low budget, and I think staying somewhere with a kitchen and living space would be our best bet so we could cook our own meals, etc. The only problem is that I cant think of what that is called. Is it a condo? We want to stay near the water, and near a downtown wouldnt be bad either. If you could give some suggestions of cheap but nice places to stay that would be great too. Thanks!!

I searched on this site and got the Cheapest Hotel,check it out,it also had discount coupon codes for expedia,orbitz,travelocity,kayak,priceli��http://freetravel4ever.blogspot.com

Efficiency means it has a kitchen. Most hotels near beaches have effeciency rooms.

It s called an extended stay hotel suite

It s about 45 degrees in Milwaukee at the moment.
