Caladesi Island - best beach in the US



Amazingly enough the best beach in the USA is in Florida and is easily accessible from Orlando - about 100 miles away. Caladesi Island is north of Clearwater and is a timeless gem in the gulf, but is accessible by private boat or via the Caladesi Connection ferry service. Cost for the ferry is $9 for adults and $5.50 for children. Trips depart hourly beginning at 10 a.m. Ferry passengers are allotted a four-hour stay on the island, so plan accordingly if you plan to participate in a guided walk. Contact the ferry office at 727-734-1501 for more information. For further information about the walks or about Caladesi Island State Park, call the park office at 727-469-5918.

Alternatively you can walk the 3 miles! You catch the ferry from Honeymoon Island which also has a nature walk to the north of the island.

Celebrate voluntearism at Disney Parks


Life gives us so many feel-good reasons to celebrate: birthdays, anniversaries, reunions and beyond. But this year, Disney Parks is celebrating a new reason—and that's the good things we do for each other.

So during 2010, Disney wants to inspire one million people just to volunteer a day of service to a participating organization in your communities. In turn, Disney will celebrate your efforts by giving you a free one-day admission to your choice of a Walt Disney World® Resort or a Disneyland® Resort Theme Park! There's no better time to make a few dreams come true for others...and to let Disney make a few come true for you.

Must pre-register and sign up for eligible volunteer opportunity at disneyparks.com. Ticket quantities for this program are limited. Must be at least age 6 to participate. One ticket per person. Other terms and conditions apply. See disneyparks.com for details.
