Blithewold Mansion in Rhode Island
David asked:
The Blithewold Mansion in Rhode Island is a popular spot for weddings, events and visitors who just want to tour one of the most impressive Rhode Island mansions.
Mining baron Augustus Van Wickle was born in 1856 in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In 1876 he went to work in his father’s coal mining business, “Van Wickle and Stout”. He moved up in the company rapidly. He and Bessie Pardee, daughter of Hazleton’s wealthiest coal baron, were married in 1882. Their daughter Marjorie was born in 1883. Bessie’s older daughter, Marjorie Van Wickle, became an accomplished watercolorist; many of her paintings are displayed in the mansion. But her true love was Blithewold, where she spent the rest of her life developing this beautiful property.
Van Wickles 1st family home was ready for occupancy in the summer of 1896. The original Blithewold was a 45-room Queen Anne style mansion furnished with antiques and reproduction furniture. This 1st Blithewold house was destroyed by a fire in 1906.
In 1907 the 2nd, grander mansion was ready for the family. The 2nd Blithewold was designed by the Boston architectural firm of Kilham and Hopkins, and was a grander affair altogether. The new Blithewold had electricity and coal-fired central heating, taking advantage of modern technology, though it emulated the English Country Manor style, which was embraced as desirable for the wealthy classes of America. The loggia of Blithewold faces Narragansett Bay, and is carved into crests and gargoyles, copying of the loggia at Cranborne Manor in Dorset, England. The house itself is long and narrow, built on a north-south axis, so that all the main rooms face west to the water. It features French doors leading out to terraces, porches, loggias and sleeping-porches. The large windows frame the glorious sunsets that Blithewold is famous for.
The center hall and staircase of Blithewold Mansion are designed in the Colonial Revival style in the Georgian style. Also typical of the Colonial Revival style are the fluted columns, dentil moldings and volutes in the Entrance Hall, as well as the 3 different patterns of balusters on the stairway.
The furniture in each room remains as former owner Bessie McKee arranged it before 1910. The fine yet quasi-eclectic decor emphasizes elegance, comfort and informality. Custom, handmade furniture abounds. The Dining Room furniture is made of oak, made for the Van Wickle family in the 1890s in a Baroque style. Several of the chairs were made of oak cut from the Blithewold gardens and were emblazoned with a Blithewold family crest.
With the exception of 2 bedrooms all the rooms in the mansion are decorated with the original wallpaper. The walls in the Master Bedroom show a hand-painted Dutch village scene. The fascinating Dining Room Collection includes more than 30 sets of fine china, which are displayed in the Butler’s Pantry.
This breathtaking American home is among the most incredible architectural attractions in the state of Rhode Island. Anyone interested in gilded age architecture cannot afford to skip a trip to this New England treasure.

Luxury Travel Accommodation
Ray J. Walberg asked:
One of the most important things one should think about before leaving on a cruise is about the sleeping quarters on the cruise ship. There have been many times when a person does not consider the sleeping quarters of the cruise ship and books a cabin without thinking about it. This has lead to a lot of problems as when the passenger finally arrives on board then they see that they would have preferred a different cabin than the one they had previously booked. So, it is always advisable to closely look into the sleeping options or cabins of the luxury travel ship to avoid any complaints that may arise later on.
Before you randomly book a cabin on the cruise ship, you should closely look at the details of the cabins given in the cruise brochure. This will help you get a lot of information about the accommodations and will also help you to decide on a cabin. When you are booking a cabin, the cost is also an important factor. It has also been seen that people tend to book the cheapest cabin so that they can save some money, however, you should be aware of the fact that the cabins of the ships are not that large in size and the cheap cabins will always be the smallest cabins that are just under or above the water level. This would mean that these cabins often do not have any windows. So, if you are a claustrophobic person, you know that it is best to steer clear from these cabins.
There are a whole large variety of sleeping quarters on a cruise ship. Some cruise liners may even give you a choice of twenty to choose from. The price of a cabin or the stateroom is often determined by the size of the room, the quality and the size of the bed. If you have some space to move around in your cabin or a window to look out into the ocean then this would make a huge difference. Most of the expensive rooms on a cruise often have big windows or verandahs or balconies attached to them. To be able to go and sit on the verandah in front of your home and to enjoy the view world have definitely helped you to move into a holiday spirit, if only they didn’t burn such a huge hole in your pocket.
You can also do your research about the accommodations on the cruise liners website. The website would have all the details of the cabins that you are looking for. Often you will see that most of the cabins are described as standard. Standard usually means a cabin that is about 150 square feet with two twin beds or one double bed, and had a T.V, a dresser, a closet and a telephone. A D.V.D player or a V.C.R, an extra chair and a reading lamp is also included in a standard cabin. If you are lucky enough than your cabin may have a porthole as a window. In these cabins space is used efficiently, however, somehow these cabins are just not designed for the regular visitor.
If you have a tight budget and are not too keen on spending more on accommodations then the economy suite is the best option for you. However, if you feel that you would not be comfortable in an economy suite then you know that you have many options to choose from and it is always better if you spend a little more money on your accommodations.

Small Auto Loans and Savings Equal to a Car of Your Own
Kalvin Jason asked:
You have been in job for long…You are earning a handsome figure but you have to meet your social and personal obligations also. So, it is quite normal not saving enough money to buy any automobile, for example car, of you own. It is now becoming tough for you to rely on public transport due to many reasons including wastage of time and efforts compared to moving in a personal car. But problematic days are over. Lenders now offer small auto loan, which is a small amount loan which if you borrow, add in your savings and buy a car.
The small auto loans are loans offered to those who are interested in buying a car or any vehicle. This loan amount is just about 50% of the total price of the car. This is the main reason why it is called a small auto loan because you cant expect the whole amount of the car as a loan. This loan is available at a lower interest rate. You need to make a small down payment against the loan you will be taking. Small auto loans are secured loans where the security you need to pledge would be the new car you are planning to buy. You may also pledge any other asset like your house as a security to get this loan.
Applying for this loan is very easy. All you need is an internet connection. Log on to the website of the lender and fill out the application form for the loan. You will need to submit a few documents before the loan amount is approved. You need to be a salaried employee with a bank account and should pay your credit card bills on time. you need to make sure you have all the details of the lender. You should cross check your lender’s interest rate and repayment policies with other lenders before deciding. This would make things easier for you in the later stage.

Luxury Yacht Charter Mediterranean
Rumble Romagnoli asked:
Choosing a destination for your holiday vacation can be difficult. Introducing the idea of a Mediterranean holiday makes your choice even more difficult. Deciding on an ideal vacation is not easy; picture sandy white beaches, crystal blue waters and exotic locations on board luxurious large private yachts. Luxury Mediterranean yacht vacations bring together locations with natural beauty, glamour, lifestyle and cultural heritage.
The Mediterranean is a mixing ground for the meeting of cultures. From ancient times it was an important route for merchants and travelers with trade and cultural exchanges. The emerging cultures of Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Phoenician met over the Mediterranean to name a few, many reminders of these cultures are still in evidence today.
Ancient Romans believed that the Mediterranean was the centre of the Earth. Today, the Mediterranean is the most popular destination for yacht charter vacations. The Mediterranean is bounded by exotic ports of call and includes the French Riviera, Italian Coasts, France, Spain, Croatia, Southern Turkey and Greece. An unparalleled climate assures a memorable time with long sunny summers and mild winters.
Imagine vacationing aboard a luxury yacht charter and sampling the beauty of the Balaeric Islands and luxury yacht charter Antibes. Famous luxury yacht vacation destinations include Monaco, Cannes, St Tropez, Portofino, Barcelona, Valencia and Corfu to name a few.
Caribbean yacht charters, luxury Mediterranean charter cruises and Antibes yacht charter vacations are a luxurious alternative. Visit exotic locations on board a yacht with all the comforts and pleasures of home with many extras including a professional and attentive charter yacht crew on board to ensure a smooth and enjoyable luxury yacht charter vacation.
Luxury yacht charter French Riviera, is the most popular yacht holiday destination and playground of the world’s rich and famous. The Côte dAzur has 100 miles of the most exclusive waterfront in the world. It has over 30 harbours along the French Mediterranean coastline with luxurious super yachts alongside humble fishing vessels.
The Italian Coast also attracts corporate yacht charter, business yacht charter, luxury motor yacht charters, luxury mega yacht charters and sailing yacht charters, encompassing the Isle of Capri and the islands of Ischia, Elba and Ponza. The old-world fishing village of Portofino and the City of Pompeii are must see ports of call on your Mediterranean charter voyage.
A recent addition to Europes favourite luxury yacht charter playgrounds is the Balaeric Islands of Spain. Historical remnants of gothic castles and ancient cobbled streets mesh with tapas bars, nightclubs and portside cafes, both old and new.
Being one of the largest luxury yacht charter vacations destinations in the world, the Mediterranean has a large choice of charter boats available. Take your pick, either a luxury motor yacht charter or luxury sailing yacht charters. Choose either a bareboat charter or skippered, crewed yachts. Other options include catamaran, power boat, mega sailing yachts, luxury mort yachts, luxury private yachts and the increasingly popular luxury super yachts. The sublime climate is attractive with the peak yacht vacations season running from April to the end of October. One option to increase your choice of berths and anchorages is to select either of the shoulder seasons, April-May and September-October. Advantages to selecting a shoulder season is the reduced numbers of on-shore tourists.
All of these Mediterranean destinations have a blending of traditional and modern. A mix of culture and passionate display of life imbibes any Mediterranean yacht charter vacation with a sense of adventure.

Enjoy Luxury Travel to Dubai
Michael Donner asked:
It is easy to enjoy luxury travel to Dubai, but first you have to find it. Many tour companies are offering trips to Dubai, but in order to cut costs you will have very little leg room on the plane, and are packed into planes, buses and hotels with dozens of other travelers. It’s not so much fun as an ordeal sometimes. However, there are some good operators around, with professional planners that can give you everything you want, so more on these later.
First Dubai. Part of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), there is more money invested in its development than any other construction site in the world. One of its largest projects currently underway is the Three Palms, three artificial islands constructed in the shape of palm trees, with the top of the tree forming a breakwater to protect each island. Although each palm will be multifunctional, the Jumeirah will focus on international hotels, the Jebel Ali on entertainment and leisure and the Deira on residential use. They have been described as the 8th Wonder of the World.
Dubai also boasts the tallest building in the world, the Burj Dubai, but that is not why you would be there – you can see tall buildings and islands anywhere in the world. No, Dubai offers a lot more, including the famous souks, or markets, the gold souk and the spice souk being two of the most popular with tourists. The gold souk is particularly well attended, where the glittering treasures on offer are largely sold by the gold weight rather than the work put into creating the piece. There are fantastic bargains to be had here. The spice souk offers frankincense and cinnamon, and everything else in between, and epitomizes the mystery of the Middle East.
Don’t forget that luxury travel to Dubai must include a visit to the desert, and there is more to do there than you would think. There are many ways to explore the desert, from the modern 4×4, or 4WD, to the more traditional camel, and you can also sand ski and sand board, although falling into the sand at speed is not as pleasant an experience as you might think. Best to stick to archery, falconry or one of the other popular local sports, but try to visit an oasis if you can.
Dubai consists of the old and the new, and no trip there would be complete without a visit to one or more of the museums. The Dubai museum itself presents the various treasures, including skeletons, found during digs in the area, and the historic Dubai creek is also worth a visit. On the Bur Dubai side of the Creek, the Grand Mosque Dubai is one of the largest mosques in the United Arab emirates, and can accommodate 1200 worshippers. It contains 45 domes, and looks spectacular when lit up at night.
When visiting Dubai keep in mind that it can get very hot, so make sure that you wear loose fitting clothes. It is also a Muslim city, so dress conservatively, particularly if you are visiting rural areas where you could get into serious trouble if you wear anything too revealing, particularly the women. Enjoying luxury travel there is the same as traveling to any other foreign country: respect their way of life and their customs and laws, or you might be made to feel unwelcome.
The weather in Dubai is best between November and April, so arrange your tour for then, while it is pleasantly warm. Temperatures can exceed 40C in the summer months. Unless you are aware of, and able to observe, all the codes of conduct needed during the month of Ramadan which is very strictly observed in Dubai, you are best to avoid this period, even though hotel prices are slashed to about 50% of normal.
The basis of any luxury trip is the service and the comfort of travel. You should make sure of business class flights at the very least, and if you can find a travel planner that can offer personal service such as your own limo driver, and also the very best hotels and food, then that is where the luxury will come from.
When you enjoy luxury travel to Dubai, you are enjoying the very best in one of the richest cities in the world, if not THE richest, and you will certainly be rubbing shoulders with some of the richest people in the world. So enjoy it.
