It’s fun to host the Carnival of Cities because I get to discover bloggers I might not find on my own. Last week’s was at Perceptive Travel<\/a> – so if you can’t get enough virtual touring, head there next!<\/p>\n

Here’s a place I know a thing or two about: Maui. This post offers good advice about what do in Lahaina. Here’s Maui After Dark <\/a>from Travel-Eat-Sleep. Taking a brief moment to remember our time in beautiful Maui and moving on…<\/p>\n

It’s not his fault. James can’t have known how much I hate the [placeholder]+cation (staycation, nakation, etc…) when he submitted his “mancation” post to the carnival. But I can look past it because the post has good advice for guys visiting North East Ohio<\/a>. Father and son getaways? I’m good with that even though I’m neither.<\/p>\n

Admittedly, I’m predisposed to love anything that come from Intelligent Travel, it’s one of my favorite blogs.\u00c2\u00a0 So I’m happy to Goodwill through Good Food<\/a> – about a volunteer corp traveling to New Orleans focused\u00c2\u00a0 “on the rebuilding and culinary renaissance of New Orleans.”<\/p>\n

Yoo hoo, history nerds! How about a visit to the Virginia Governor’s Palace? Jefferson didn’t care for it, apparently, but it’s still worth a visit. Leslie Carbone<\/a> takes us there.<\/p>\n

Wow, check out these super cute bungalows 10 minutes from Lisbon. Thanks, Culture Shock<\/a> for some adorable alternative accommodation.<\/p>\n

And check out this list of 10 Things to Do in Berlin<\/a> on Travel Etc.<\/p>\n

Providentia<\/a> takes a look at the backstory behind “a pub and alleyway named for him on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile” named for William Brodie, the Scottish cabinetmaker who inspired the story of Jekyll and Hyde.<\/p>\n

For more morbid obsessions, there’s Executed Today. This post<\/a> talks about Bohemia’s Day of Blood – “the Habsburg crown took 27 nobles\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 heads in Prague\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Old Town Square for attempting to lead Bohemia to independence.”<\/p>\n
