Trondheim Things To Do
Trondheim: Behind the Great Cathedral Behind the Great Cathedral by bpacker
After gawking at the cathedral, proceed towards the back of the cathedraal where you'll find a medieval gatehouse. Once you cross it, you'll find yourself in a vast courtyard that was created by two rambling buildings built in the Middle Ages: Erkebispegarden ( the Archbishop Palace ) , possibly the oldest secular building in Scandinavia; and Rustkammeret (the army museum) . Since Liz and I were horribly hungry by now and dying for a break, we... [read more]
Dubai Sports Travel
Dubai: Desert Adventure Desert Adventure by Rinjani
Going to the desert is a great experience. And while you are visiting Dubai, don’t miss this chance. The perfect time to explore the desert is from December to March, where the temperature is cool and the weather is perfect. Early in the morning is great to see the early live on the desert. Or, you can also go later in the midday and stay in the desert to watch the sunset. You can book a desert safari trip organized by travel agents, or if you... [read more]

AND THEY'RE OFF!!

The VT Team of Adventurers, ant1606, frankcanfly, JohnSakura, Laurel914, have been on their route of discovery and challenges for 6 full days now. If you have any spottings, be sure to give us a shout out in the Miscellaneous Forum The Caucasian Challenge. And if you get a picture of the team as it passes by, we’ll send you a special VT gift.

If you haven't read up on this wild adventure across the Caucasus Mountains, go to CaucasianChallenge. It’s an exciting and whacky race starting in Budapest, Hungary on August 30 and concluding September 15 in Yerevan, Armenia. The team representing VirtualTourist will be handing out special picture cards as they meet members, and potential members, along the way. So, if you’re anywhere in the vicinity, please cheer on our group as it crosses eleven countries on its way to the finish line. We hope the new team carries on the tradition set by the victors of the Autorickshaw Challenge of 2008 led by our own General Manager, Giampiero Ambrosi.

The Caucasian Challenge and Autorickshaw Challenge is sponsored by the same charitable organization.

Kissimmee, Florida – What do you think?

This month, we’ve got a new ad partner - the Kissimmee, Florida Convention and Visitors Bureau who is showing off some of their area travel activities on our Kissimmee Top 10 page. My brother lives in Florida, and I’ve visited a bunch of times, but I’ve never been to Kissimmee, so I’m wondering from VT’ers who know the place, what I should expect to see and do if I visit. I started a Forum post to see what you guys thought. If you’ve got some comments, I’d love to hear them. – Thanks, Giampiero

We LOVE hearing from VirtualTourist members and visitors alike. We frequently get notes just letting us know that you're out there and you're enjoying VT. Very often we'll forward the mail around to the rest of the team, to share the love. Drop us a note, we'd love to hear from you.

You can see more community news items from previous days in the community news archives Drop us a note at feedback@virtualtourist.com if you'd like your item to be considered.
