In Dresden, Germany a festival was held to celebrate Stollen, it was called Stollenfest, it was Germany's historic tradition, but unfortunately, due to the fall of the monarchy in 1918, it was
seven years ago in Mesquite, Nevada. I began to reminisce about the family trip that brought us closer together, even if only for the four days we were there. We excitedly gathered our bags and followed Mom and Dad into the hotel. As we walked into the magnificent Casa Blanca hotel, our mouths dropped and our eyes widened as we gazed at a huge ice cream parlor next to the front desk. As Mom and Dad checked us in, we dropped our luggage and ran over to it and press our noses on the clean glass doors
decided to spend our two-week vacation in the all night city of Paris. We were looking forward to the 35oC weather, the theme parks built inside the over developed hotels and one of the greatest wonders of the world, the Eiffel tower.

Lise in the Driver's Seat - Steering off Course On a first reading, The Driver's Seat may seem to be a novel about an obsessional fear, of everything except death, held by the central character, Lise. Yet on a closer second reading of the text it becomes apparent that the novel is actually about Lise's strict conformity to the Christian faith and her constant will to die. To a person knowledgeable in the field of basic psychiatric function, it is obvious that Lise is suffering from some form
We arrived at our hotel which seemed like a nice little cosy place. The beach was right in front of us - white sand, crystal clear water, the perfect, paradise beach. Out of the blue, a speed boat come flying round the cliffs, which surrounded the beach, with a speeding banana boat attached, and about six screaming maniacs holding on to try and stay as dry as possible. So much for the quiet and perfect beach. Anyway, I got my belongings and wandered off into my hotel, searching for the reception
offering hotel rooms, another commodity in which hotels would rather book a room at a minimal price than have it empty. As priceline spread out to encompass more areas such as home mortgages and groceries, it faced a diluted image to shoppers.
