Where to surf ?

Where is the best spot in the world to ride the waves? We all love the big waves, I started getting interested in Surfing, when once I saw “Baywatch” and in one of the episodes, a beauty girl rode the waves and she was amazing!
In the next rows i want to share with you some of the best places where you can go to surf and to have a great time with your friends to ride the waves.

1.Tamarindo, Costa Rica

:   
After the popular surfing film The Endless Summer 2 showcased Tamarindo’s goods, tourists were tripping over themselves trying to get to this Central American hotspot. Now developed into a full-fledged resort, Tamarindo has not lost its edge as an exclusive surfing spot. Spots like Little Hawaii and Witch’s Rock are among the most legendary, thanks to aggressive swells and almost perfect weather.

2.Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa

: 
A notorious surfing destination thanks to its six superb breakpoints and consistently great weather all year, Jeffrey’s Bay sees some picture-perfect waves roll onto its beaches, including “Kitchen Windows,” “Magna Tubes” and “Albatross.” It is no wonder the popular Billabong Surfing Festival attracts the world’s best surfers here every July — the conditions are ideal.

3.Pipeline, Hawaii

: 
Here it is — the daddy of all waves. It’s the site most surfers will never be good enough to surf, but dream of riding its perfect crest. Aptly, it’s located at the island that created surfing, and is one of the heaviest waves in the world, scaling over six meters over a shallow base of razor blade table reef. If you’ve got the balls, charge this flawless water tube and experience one of nature’s finest creations.

Any surfer will tell you: once you’ve hopped on a board once, you just can’t stop. So even the inexperienced wave lovers who want to catch some big breaks and add “dude,” “tubular” and “awesome” to their everyday lingo should seriously check out these 10 destinations. Each one offers great surfing conditions in an idyllic setting where you can hit the water hard during the day and then experience a resort at night. So, are you ready to ride?

Smile ! (:

Party never ends

We all love to go to parties or festivals, to have fun with friends, dancing with strangers, drinking alkohol and we can do that all night long or maybe a few days. Now I want to invite you at some parties, where I’am sure you can have a great time.

Songkran

:

A celebration of the Thai New Year, Songkran may as well be the world’s biggest wet-tshirt contest. The festival takes place during Thailand’s hottest time of year, mid April, and partiers cool off by throwing containers of water, blasting Super Soakers and spraying garden hoses at one other. Although the original Songkran festival was a rather somber and reverent affair—a time to pay respect to elder, where the water hurling symbolized a spiritual cleansing—young people have helped push the festival in the direction of wet and wild revelry.

Phi Ta Khon

:

As the most well-known event of Loei province in the Northeastern Thailand, Phi Ta Khon is the ultimate yearly celebration. The Thailand Ghost Festival is well regarded as an annual event where revelers put on rather hilarious, yet ghostly, masks made of bamboo and wicker and join in the Ghost parade. Regarded as a rain-making ceremony, this spooky festivity is held annually in the beginning of rainy season. This year the event will be held on 22-24 June at Dan Sai District of Loei province. Unlike Halloween, the ghosts and poltergeists in Phi Ta Khon seek their fun under full daylight.

Full Moon Party

:

The island of Ko Pha Ngan in Thailand hosts an all-night beach party before or after every full moon. The tradition began in the ’80s as a simple gathering to give thanks to a group of tourists, and over time has evolved into a 20,000-strong celebration that is sure to be on every party-loving tourist’s itinerary. In addition to the endless, pounding music and attractive crowd, the event boasts features like fire skipping ropes, infamous “buckets” of alcoholic beverages and a pretty colorful drug culture. In other words, there aren’t a lot of people going home alone after this one.

Enjoy the moment …

Feel the coolness at the beach

When I’am at the beach and the sand is hot, some of the best thing i can wait for is the breeze. But after a few minutes of waiting, I see one bar and do you know what I’am thinking about … Yes “I need a drink”, but not just a drink. I want some special drinks to feel the coolness in this hot day on the beach.
Let me show you some cocktails that I like …

Malibu Sunrise : 
Recipe:
2 oz Malibu® coconut rum
fill with orange juice
1 oz grenadine syrup
Pour malibu rum in a highball glass, and top with orange juice. Stir. Add grenadine by tilting glass and pouring grenadine down side. (by flipping the bottle vertically very quickly). The grenadine should go straight to the bottom and then rise up slowly through the drink. Enjoy!

Do you like frozen cocktail ?
Frozen Strawberry Banana Colada : 
Recipe:
1 1/4 oz dark rum
2 oz coconut cream
2 oz strawberries
1 medium banana
8 oz crushed ice
Combine ingredients in a blender until smooth. Pour into a glass, garnish with a fresh strawberry or Banana, and serve.

What a lovely cocktail is this one…
Bahama Mama :
Recipe:
1/4 oz coffee liqueur
1/2 oz dark rum
1/2 oz coconut liqueur
1/4 oz 151 proof rum
juice of 1/2 lemons
4 oz pineapple juice
Combine all ingredients and pour over cracked ice in a collins glass. Decorate with a strawberry or cherry and serve.

Before the next cocktail i want to warn you, this is not for everyone.I don’t think its good for your health 😉
Bone Crusher : 
Recipe:
1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz vodka
1/2 oz triple sec
1/2 oz rum
1/4 oz grenadine syrup
1/4 oz Rose’s® lime juice
2 oz sweet and sour mix
1 oz Champagne
Combine all ingredients (except Champagne) in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. Pour into a tall glass, preferably a pint glass or large brandy snifter with ice, and float the champagne on top with a squeeze of lemon. Serve.

I just think this is plain ol’ fun! Here’s a recipe that Fred Flintstone and Wilma would have toasted with over a moonlit evening – it’s full of alcohol and packs a wallop! It’s also a lovely rose color.

In the next posts I will show you some more cocktails, I hope you enjoy these 🙂

The Biggest Cinema’s in the world

When I have free time, I always go to watch the new movies in cinema. Nothing is better than sitting and enjoying favourite movies in a luxurious air-conditioning cinema room in order to avoid the strong sunlight in a hot humid afternoon, or to escape the terrible insomnia. The cinemas here provide all  genres of movies with high quality digital technique and cheap tickets.
Let me show you some of the biggest Cinema in the world…

1.Golden Village VivoCity (Singapore) :

Golden Village VivoCity is a branch of Golden Village chain – a large multiplex business in Singapore. It is the largest cinema offering a new experience on movie viewing, state-of-art screen, audio visual system, comfort and luxury.

2.Prasads, Hyderabad, India :

You might mistake Prasads as just another entertainment complex in Hyderabad – but take a look at its cinema screen; it’s the largest IMAX 3-D screen in the world. Measuring 72 x 92 feet, and running since 2003, it receives more than 1,500 calls a day to the telephone booking line.

3.The LG IMAX Theatre Sydney :

Sydney is home to the world’s biggest cinema screen so roll up for gargantuan film entertainment in 2012 at IMAX Sydney. The IMAX theatre has been closed since 6 February for installation of the enormous state-of-the-art screen. It was hauled into place on 9 February by a team of 31 riggers, which may seem like overkill but for the fact that it measures a staggering 29.5m X 35.7m and weighs in at a rather hefty 800kg.The 540 seat IMAX Cinema was fitted out with specialised Figueras theatre seating.

I hope you will like some of these Cinemas, if you have a favorite Cinema describe it (:

The easiest way to gain abs at home

I was wondering “What is the easiest way to gain abs, if I don’t want to go to the Gym?”
And then, i saw a website where i found the answer. I’ve tried some of the Exercises and I’am impressed. Because I always have no time to go to the Gym (I’am sure that I’am not the only one) and in this website i found some easy exercises for the beginners like me , but there are a lot of difficult exercises for advanced. In the beginning i started only with the easiest one, and it takes me only for 5 min in 2 days.
But let me show you for what I’am talking about…

My first exercise : Push Through is one of the best “abdominal exercises” for working the upper area of the abdomen. The focus of this exercise is to push the hands inside the legs. As you push through, contract your abdomen voluntarily to obtain the best possible result.

After 2 weeks I started with this one : Legs completely stretched out and one hand behind the head. Raise your trunk while it rotates in the direction of the opposite leg. At the same time, move the leg closer carrying the knee parallel to the pelvis. Return to the starting position.

After a month I’am still trying this one : Take care as this is a very advanced exercise. Make sure that your lumbar musculature is well-trained before executing this exercise. Imagine a vertical line which starts from your pelvis. Contract your abdomen and bring your shoulders and knees towards the imaginary line. It is very important to keep the pelvis still during the exercise. Return to the starting position.

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Spray or grease a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable oil. In a wide-based blender or a food processor fitted with a metal
blade, process the rolled oats until they become a fine flour. Sift the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg into a large mixing bowl.
Stir in the whole-wheat flour and oats. Using a spatula, make a depression or “well” in the center of the dry ingredients and add the applesauce,
diced apple, beaten egg whites, honey, raisins and yogurt. Stir gently but thoroughly, just until all the flour is incorporated into the batter. Pour the
batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about full.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Turn

Healthy Lifestyle (simple tips)

Living a healthy lifestyle is about the choices that “you” make.
“We have millions of people now going through adult life leading unhealthy lifestyles
and a medical system that can treat illnesses and keep you alive longer than ever before,”
said Mathew Reeves, a Michigan State University epidemiologist. “If we don’t turn this around,
the costs to society are going to be crippling.”.  I’am sure, some of you are trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but some of us always don’t have time for that. Yes, excuses are real and they are contagious.“I don’t feel like cooking dinner tonight; let’s just get some fast food.” or “Oh, I’m tired, I don’t have time to exercise?”. We have time to work, time to commute, time for our business associates, but very little time to spend on ourselves, people we love, or even random people who deserve our attention.

So here are some tips, how to start living a healthier lifestyle:

1.Smile
2.Open a window
3.Take a deep breath
3.Say thank you to someone who deserves it
4.Wake up 10 minutes earlier
5.Hug your kids
6.Remember Good Hygiene (a daily shower,toothbrush and toothpaste)
7.Choose Healthy Foods (including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains)
8.Replace your next cup of coffee with a cup of tea
9.Put your car keys in the same place everyday
10.Get Some Exercise (stand up and stretch,take a walk in the park, do 15 sit-ups)
11.While watching TV, do 5 push-ups during the commercial
12.Avoid Unhealthy Habits

How many of these do you or can you do in a day? What other things can you add to the list? Whatever you choose to do, make your day healthier and happier. If you can, do the same for someone else too, because, after all, it’s about a healthy lifestyle!
