Punta Cana

The Dominican Republic, in particular, Punta Cana is known for its 32 km stretch of breath-taking beaches, golf courses’, exclusive resorts and Indigenous Eyes Ecological Park and it is undoubtedly the best family getaway.

The Flight from Sydney to Punta Cana can cost from $1000-$2000 with a flying time if 28 hours. Virgin Airlines staff are very welcoming and the kids love them. The toys provided kept the occupied and allowed me to relax! My accommodation at the La Dolce Vita Residence is the ultimate place for parents to relax by the pool and let the kids slash around it the gated swimming pool with lifeguards keeping an eye on the young ones. Connecting rooms, fitting 5, cost $150 per night with views of the Caribbean Sea and within walking distance to the Clínica Abreu Hospital, Visa offices, and the Diamante Casino. The hotel has a free kids club that runs from 8 am to 9 pm every day of the week. During the kids club, the actives include supervised swimming, arts and craft and sports activities. My kids loved the staff and begged to go back each day. The rooms in the kid’s club were very well cleaned and the staff was very hygienic meaning I could relax by the pool and not have to worry about them getting sick.

    Puerto Rico has been a U.S. territory for 115 years, yet Puerto Ricans remain second-class citizens. If it becomes a state, Puerto Ricans will no longer be exempt from Federal income tax and even more people will be forced on to the public’s benefits paid by the government. There are some positive truths to look at also, as journalist Catherine Lozada points out: “Puerto Rico costs the U.S. over $22 billion a year. However, as a state it will contribute nearly $2 billion to the U.S. treasury each year.” There will always be that one question which longs to be answered, and that is: What’s keeping Puerto Rico in Political limbo?…

    Passion is known as the strong emotion that motivates us to move beyond our comfort zones to achieve the potential that resides within us. Passion is a powerful driving force. Reason is the capacity of conciencely making sense of things also known as logic. Reason or logic, is the foundation of rationality. The real question is, does passion and emotion overcome the logic behind people's concience? Precisely. Daniel Golman, the author of Emotional Intelligence, once stated," Imagine placing a plank of wood on the ground and walking it's length a few times. It is easy enough. But suppose you placed it a hundred feet in the air between two buildings. You know you can walk the plank. You did it over and over again. Yet now the emotion kicks in. The what-ifs and unconcience mind supercede the concrete knowedge of your ability to walk the plank. At the end, you don't walk." Emotion has the ability to overcome reasoning, because it brings fear, memories, close-ties to the situation, and the famous what-ifs a.k.a, doubt. Bringing those forces, can cause anyone to collapse, and follow the leader, the one who could conquer what was suppose to make sense, leaving people in perplexity and doubtful of their own reactions and thoughts. Plus, it emotion takes less effort. So yes, emotion does overcome logic and reason. The overcoming of emotion is intense and very common, leaving prints all over history, in literature, but the best way to actually understand is to experience it on your own, and that's exactly what I did.…

    Atlantic Canada

    - located on the eastern edge of Canada, the first entry into the continent was by Europeans. - Its natural resources have been exploited for centuries, making it an 'old' resource hinterland. - Its small and highly dispersed population offers only small markets and few manufacturing opportunities. Distance from the markets of Central Canada has curtailed its trade within Canada and thus dampened its economic development. For that reason, its natural resources are exported to world markets, especially to New England, rather than to the more distant markets in Central Canada. Originally, the people of Atlantic Canada exploited the rich cod fishery, but this resource has collapsed. Highly valued species, such as crab, lobster, and shrimp, and offshore oil and gas have brought new hope for economic development. ATLANTIC CANADA Maritimes and Newfoundland/Labrador are bound together by a rich "sense of place" The ocean dominates the culture and history of Atlantic Canada Economy is heavily dependent on primary activities (resource extraction: fisheries, forestry, agriculture, energy exploration) Core/Periphery Model: Atlantic Canada is a downward transitional region (see UNIT 4) DOWNWARD TRANSITIONAL According to Table 1.4, page 21…. It means: Economy is declining… GDP going down Unemployment is rising Out-migration is occurring (esp. young people) Often, this is an "old" region that is dependent on resource development for its economic growth Now that these resources have passed their prime or have been exhausted, the economy tends to stall Canada's oldest hinterland Lowest GDP, highest unemployment rate (see Table 1.1, next slide) Unemployment rate is at 11.5% (above national average) Out-migration is very high --> mostly to Ontario, Alberta and BC Reasons for weak economic performance: geographic division into sub-regions (transportation costs are high) limited resource base small internal markets…

    Baja California, Mexico

    • 2 Pages

    Baja California is one of the 31 states in Mexico. It is both the northernmost and westernmost state of Mexico. But before becoming a state in 1953, the area was known as the North Territory of Baja California. It has an area of 70,113 km2 (27,071 sq mi), or 3.57% of the land mass of Mexico and comprises the northern half of the Baja California peninsula. The state is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by Sonora, the U.S. State of Arizona, and the Gulf of California, and on the south by Baja California Sur. Its northern limit is the U.S. state of California. The state has a population of about 2,844,469, and an estimated 3,165,776 more than the sparsely populated Baja California Sur to the south, and similar to San Diego County, California on its north. Over 75% of the population lives in the capital city, Mexicali, or in Ensenada and Tijuana. Other important cities include San Felipe, Rosarito and Tecate. The population of the state is composed of Mestizos, mostly immigrants from other parts of Mexico, and, as with most northern Mexican states, a large population of Mexicans of European ancestry, and also a large minority group of East Asian, Middle Eastern and indigenous descent. Additionally, there is a large immigrant population from the United States due to its proximity to San Diego and the cheaper cost of living compared to San Diego. There is also a significant population from Central America. Many immigrants moved to Baja California for a better quality of life and the number of higher paying jobs in comparison to the rest of Mexico and Latin America. Baja California is the twelfth largest state by area in Mexico. Its geography ranges from beaches to forests and deserts. The backbone of the state is the Sierra de Baja California, where the Picacho del Diablo, the highest point of the peninsula, is located. This mountain range effectively divides the weather patterns in the state.…

Ever since the Spanish American war, Puerto Rico lays in a state between a territory and a state. This state, otherwise know as a commonwealth. A commonwealth gives residences U.S. Citizenship to the people who live there but with no representation in congress. Many people came forth in a recent election in 2012 to decide the fate of the island. For the first time, more people voted to become a state.

    Puerto Rico, an island situated between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, lies just east of the Dominican Republic. With an area of 9,104 square kilometers (3,515 square miles), Puerto Rico is almost 3 times the size of the state of Rhode Island. As an island commonwealth with a coastline of 501 kilometers (311 miles), Puerto Rico shares no borders with other nations. San Juan, the capital, is located on the northeastern shore of the main island; there are also 3 small islands included in the Commonwealth: Vieques and Culebra to the east and Mona to the west. San Juan's location makes it one of the Caribbean Sea's most valuable ports. The Mona Passage, off Puerto Rico's west shore, is also a crucial shipping route to the Panama Canal. Major cities include Guánica, Playa de Ponce, and Guayanilla, all 3 along the southern coast, in east-to-west order.
