HOLY Burning Sands!
10 Worst Travel Destinations of 2007! Subjective perhaps but hey what the hey! These certainly sit at the top of the shelf. Only the brave, lonely and very lost souls would have enjoyed their visits here. Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Lebanon, Pakistan, Sudan, Myanmar, DR Congo, Chad, Sri Lanka are as polled by crazies on another planet.
Well. As long as your having fun. Wink. Wink. TRAVELSAPIEN say's. Hey! We are not arguing.

CRAZY RICH DESSERTS $14,500 A PLATE?
YES! YES! YES!
CRAZY RICH TASTE!
Expensive Desserts For The Very Loaded Traveler.
Cash - That is......
The dish called Fortress Aquamarine worth of $14,500 can be tasted in Sri-Lanka restaurant Wine3. Here travellers are served a tiny tartlet with fresh berries, decorated with an 80-carat aquamarine brilliant. The gourmands with a thick purse will also be pleased with Brownie Extraordinaire - a chocolate cookie soaked in Crystal champagne. It is served with a sprinkler filled with vintage port wine which is used to spray the mouth after each eaten slice of food. You can taste this delicacy worth of $1000 in Tropicana Casino and Resort (New Jersey).
The Serendipity restaurant (New York) will offer its guest the ice-cream worth of $1000, prepared from several kinds of vanilla, truffles, bitter chocolate and sweetened caviar. The crystal vase which was used to serve the dessert might be taken away. The Istanbul Ciragan Palace Kempinski offers the unique “sultan pie” which costs $1000. The pie is staffed with fresh fruit and figs pickled in Jamaica rum, and then covered with plates of gold. In Bangkok restaurant Mezzaluna you can taste the ice-cream made of truffles, decorated with hand-worked chocolate and soaked with a forty-years aged cognac - just for $200.
(Thanks to Forbes Traveler and Trendhunter for their heads up!) Actually Travelsapien already knew about this however these people write better and have more money. Wink Wink)

COLOMBIA SOUTH AMERICA HEATING UP!
Colombia South America is heating up!
HOT Tourism destination? You bet. How does a nation ravaged by years of bad publicity turn itself around? One road at a time. When President Alvaro Uribe took over office in 2002 the rate of normality to Colombia has grown significantly. Shedding the leadership role in world cartels and (B) rate movies portraying the country in a bad light Colombia is emerging as a physically stunning and culturally vibrant country. Having spent a number of months touring the interior of the country TRAVELSAPIEN can say to those looking for a new destination for either coastal beaches, interior adventure packages including agro-tourism, cultural exchange, festivals and CHIVA Colombia is a super choice. Inexpensive, raw, untainted by mom and pop dressed simpletons who only want processed burgers for dinner Colombia offers antiquity to rival anyone. 3 UNESCO designated sights in Heritage, Biosphere, and Antiquity. Pre-Colombian art, and much much much more. Medellin is now gaining a reputation as a cultural center, with its own international fashion week with a thriving art scene. Other major cities are discovering their identity. The interior areas such as HUILA especially GARZON as the centre point has Coffee Plantation Guesthouses, Farm Stays including sugarcane processing, pinapples, coca of course with chocolate to challenge the world's best. Activities from water rafting, extreme packages, and friendly people everywhere. More on Colombia coming soon. TRAVEL + LEISURE in their March 2007 issue feature Colombia and it is worth the read. Get aquainted. Be first. Many will follow soon.
In the mean time check out POLLO LOCO Radio Garzon for a mix of Cumbia, Urban, Rock and plain great background music while you surf your favorite sites. Nice!
