Can I get a tan in Florida at the end of December? -

I am going to Orlando and Miami, Florida for a week at the end of December. We will be outside literally all day when the sun is out, but no neccisarily at the beach. like we re gonna go to some tourist things, and then maybe the beach for a day or two. I was really hoping to get a tan because its snowing where i live! So is it possible? Thanks! Btw I tan really easy and never burn. I have medium skin

You will definitely be able to get a tan as long as the weather Gods keep the rain away and the sun shinning. I live in Sunny Isles Beach and the sun is still intense everyday with our usual temperature in the 80 s so you should have no problems when coming here. Keep in mind that if you are going to the beach, while the afternoon rays are the best at trying to get a tan, the beaches are on the East Coast so you will have to get the sun rays in the morning. Many parts of Miami are blocked because of the tall sky scrappers and prevent the Western sunlight from penetrating in parts of the city.I work at a condo and many of the residents spend most of their time in New York and other places and when they come to Miami, they soak up the sun and are very tan within the first day of their arrival.But overall you should be fine and I hope you will enjoy your stay in our city and our state.

yeah lol if you re out long enough and if you wear like a tank top. I live here and it s still not cold enough to really wear a jacket!!

if the weather was not right, you could always slip off to a tanning bed and not tell anyone. this way when you return, your friends will be amazed!

oh yeah! even if You don t sunbath welcome to Miami ,I know You will love it.

What is the most convenient car rental at LAX - Los Angeles Airport? -

I need ease and convenience, not necessarily cheapest price.

All car rentals places at LAX have free shuttle service to and from the airport. Hertz, Avis, National, Enterprise, Thrifty, Budget. When you arrive just go outside to the overhead sign that says Car Rental Shuttles.

I think Jolly Wheels can have someone pick you up right at the terminal at LAXTry Jolly Wheels Rent A Car http://www.jollywheels.com

All the major ones are convenient. Just like WoE, I ve never had a problem with Enterprise, and have stuck with them.

I never had a problem with Enterprise

Whats are some good cheap romantic weekend getaways in southern california? -

a place roughly 2-3 hundred dollars would be nice

There s not a lot you can do on that budget, but some places that are romantic and fun for a couple days are the Malibu Beach Inn and then dinner at Beaurivage, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Big Bear, and Catalina Island. If you want to stay local, you might get a room at Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica and spend the entire day in. The rooms are beautiful and cozy with jacuzzi tubs and all that which is nice.

$200-$300 Total, or per night? If that s the total, you re talking the hourly motel down in San Pedro, and a walking tour of the Queen Mary (which is free).I ve seen the Golden Bear Cottages in Big Bear... they keep sending me emails about last-minute deals. This would be a great time to rent a cabin for snuggling up with your significant other.Or you could go south to San Diego... LOTS of hotels there, and you could go to Balboa Park, the zoo, Sea World, etc.Good luck.

I would probably try something in Cambria (a littles ways from San Luis Obispo).It s beautiful there. Very romantic.And since it s not LA or San Fran, you might get a better deal$300 doesn t go far when you at least $125 a night for hotel ($100 +$25 taxes)

Orlando Taxis - Which Companies are Reliable? -

I have heard that Mears have the monopoly on Orlando taxis - does this mean they are the best company to choose? Which other taxi companies are good for people visiting Orlando? Yellow Cabs seem to have some negative reviews too - do you know why?

Ya, I ve heard bad things about the Yellow Cabs out there. I ve always used Mears, especially since they re the company that Disney has their Disney s Magical Express through.http://www.mearstransportation.com/

Mears is the best way to go. They are affiliated with Disney now, so they are kept to the high customer service standards that Disney sets. I have used them multiple times, and would use no other service.

I ve heard good things about Mears and Tiffany Town Car.There is another town car or limo service that I can t think of right now. Seems like it is a common guy s name.

What do accents from connecticut in the usa sound like? -

im from connecticut and i got a uk account by accident but i want to know if i have an accent???

I live in Salt Lake City but grew up in Stamford, CT. I m always told here that I have an Eastern sounding accent, but people don t always guess Connecticut. Stamford is close to NYC, so there is a slight New Yorkish accent, but not as strong. I have met people out here who have a heavy NY accent...mine is only slight.(p.s....you say you have an uk account ...did you mean an English accent?...I lived in Birmingham, AL for awhile and not everyone who spent their lifetime there had a strong Southern accents...so accents can be interesting. If you ve never been to England and have an English accent in CT...that s very interesting.)

Depends which end of CT you are from, If you live in the Northeast part of the state, you will have an accent similar to that of Bostonians, and if you live in the southwest part of the state, your accent will be more like that of New Yorkers. And in the middle, your accent will have elements of the two

See if you can identify any one on the list below and that should give you some idea.Apparently the Carpenters are from New Haven.
