I have a white metal bistro (1 table, 2 chairs). I want to paint it black. I have black matte outdoors

paint that says can be painted right over the rust. The table is not rusty. My question? Should I do something to this whole preparation before paint?

Lightly sand it to give it a "tooth" so the paint will stick. I give him a coat or 5 of satin or gloss on top, just to protect the paint and help it last longer. Remember, paint and varnish or below so that the rust is away. Good Luck!

Shoestring Guide To Hong Kong

Bring your camera and get ready, coz if I do not have the money honey, you'd better to tighten their belt like a madman.

If there is one thing I'm good, he is living beyond my means. While not necessarily commendable character, he made me a hardcore bargain hunter to everything – food, dormitory, clothing, transportation. I am not rich, I must admit, but street smart – yes I am! Based on my recent trip on a budget to href = "http://www.travelchacha.com/hongkong-delhi.html"> Hong Kong, I designed a system so frugal it will do all proud Pinoy. It Wanderlust for all who are short of cash.

Transportation

BUS = $ 1.00 and over (Depending on destination )
You'll be amazed how cheap, well-organized and it is safe to ride a bus from Hong Kong. There will always be a bus stop near you so that instead. DO NOT flag a bus in the middle of the road, it will squash you mercilessly! Always go for the seat second bridge for the best view.

DOUBLE DECKER TRAM = U.S. $ 0.50 (fixed rate)
Hong Kong under the mode of transportation! Unfortunately, the tram only covers the route from Hong Kong Island side. But if you're around, you can go Causeway Bay, Shark Fin City to Louis Vuitton in Central Europe with only $ 12! Everyone must ride the tram at least once, to experience HK all the old school.

Star Ferry = $ 2.00
This is the cheapest and most scenic way to go and Kowloon Hong Kong Island.

Mass Transit Railway (MTR) = $ 1.00 – U.S. $ 15.00 (depending on the destination)
Not necessarily cheap, the MTR is the most practical and my favorite way to tour the city. As they say, once you go MTR can never return to our Local MRT.

Taxis are the most expensive way to get around HK, so if you want to be a travel intelligence, to say no and walk to the place where you go.

Sleep

CHUNKING MANSION = U.S. $ 15 per person
Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui Kowloon
Do not be afraid of the facade of the ghetto, the White House is safe and cheap dirt (no pun intended). The place has relatively clean beds and each room has its own bathroom with hot water in this hotel. Recently featured in Time magazine, Chunking Mansion is said to be the melting pot of races in Hong Kong with Indian, Middle Eastern people, Nepalese, Sri Lakan Bangladeshins and Nigerians to call this their turf.

Entertainment

SYMPHONY OF LIGHTS = FREE!
Star Ferry Terminal, Kowloon
Every night at exactly 8:00 p.m., there will be a laser show. You hear a musical accompaniment to laser light, which contains thousands and thousands of lights on different buildings in Hong Kong bouncing off each other. Green and white laser flow from the top of skyscrapers. It is an opulent experience that is amazing, best of all, free!

Victoria Peak = $ 20.00 + + (with food)
Hong Kong Island
The Peak is a destination SOP. His platform on the roof open to offers the best view HK 360 degrees! Go at sunset if you see the Hong Kong skyline at night. The cheapest way to get there is through the open top bus. Restaurants and bars are steep on the price then go for McDonald's good ol 'second floor. Get out your food and dining al fresco on the terrace on the roof.

Ocean Park = U.S. $ 30
This is a happier place than Disneyland, especially if your 13 and over! The latest attraction is the SkyFair there, you ride a helium balloon for a spectacular view of the coastline and the South China Sea.

Lan Kwai Fong = U.S. $ 10
Central District, Hong Kong
Towards L-shaped stone pebble is more likely pubs, bars, restaurants and clubs. This place is a magnet if you're expats in yuppie white boy, you can find your match here. However alcoholic beverages sold at the bar are worth gold. The solution is to load the nearest 711 (at a cost of Tiger beer 6pack on P300), obtaining bubbles with alcohol, then head to Lan Kwai Fong and just people oogling.

Shopping

Mongkok STREET MARKET
ongkok Street Kowloon is the "Mecca of tourism shopping. There are rows of shops that sell sporting goods, clothes, computer items, comics, collectible toys, phones cell, etc. The field is the most famous Ladies Market. It is 3 blocks dome tent that sell stuff you can see in Greenhills. However it are elements of Nice purchase as cute tote bags, belts hardcore rocker, bling quality fake watches and keychains pasalubong ubiquitous pens, wallets, t-shirts etc. If you decide to buy something here you have HAGGLE like your life depended on it. Haggling in this area is like a metaphor for the love life of a girl. Never show them (boys / hawkers) you are in them (boys / articles). always negotiate for the best deal that is a reduction of 75 percent. And if they do not give you what they want … WALK AWAY. There will be a 80 percent chance of the boy / hawker will give in to what you want.

Another Tip If you are going to buy the Hong Kong T-shirts printed with the right price is 6 t-shirts for HK $ 100 (or P100 each)

LAI CHI KOK
Kowloon
This is the paradise of wholesale fashion! To get here ride the MTR, get off the Lai Chi Kok Station. Exit C. bags Cheap t-shirts, jeans, belts, accessories, you name it here. Bargaining is a must. The United States 30 million leather bags you see in the U.S. As luxury shops are only worth $ 15 here.

H & M
Causeway Bay?? Hong Kong To me, it Mango the best, Sarah, Dorthy Perkin Top Shop or combined. This Swedish brand goods cheaper hottest yet. Fortunately for me and my friends arrived during the selling season and we bought shirts kick ass for as low as P300 and patent leather bags for
cheap as P600! Accessories are Fine! H & M welcomes all types of taste if you're a wannabe hipster like Lindsay Lohan or a polished-looking ala Ashley Olsen. You can not go wrong with a store has acquired the talents of these bigwigs as Karl Lagerfeld, Viktor & Rolf, and yes … Maddon and Kyle

Minogue!

BOSSINI
Dowdy that the mark may appear this clothing store is convenient and if you look closely, you can find decent clothing recreation office. Check out their tees SIMPSON sold for a flight.

Giordano
Gone are the cheesy Giordano plain tees with logos Frog, remember the 90s? In Hong Kong, Giordano has developed a concept store which has become chic and trendy. Check out their print advertising models that Korean Superstars including the rain! Concept Stores have quality products and designs are minimalist but well structured. As expected, the stuff is more expensive than your regular products. A polo neck can cost $ 20, but it's worth it!
The question now is what happened in the Philippines Giordano?

HMV
Heaven CD, enough said.

FRIENDS DOG Fashion Store
Kowloon
hipster clothing street appreciate that fashonistas. I bought a jacket patch decided at a sale price of $ 20.00 from U.S. $ 100

Eats

STREET FOOD FIELD Mongkok = $ 2.00
The way the Chinese cook their food hawker may be rude, but it's delicious boy. Get Authentic dim sum, appetizers, pork, shrimp dumpling and Chinese

Tea Here!

Popeye's Chicken = U.S. $ 12.00
Order the chicken and bread. Super worth it!

EGG PIE = U.S. $ 0.40
The specialty Dessert Macao, but the HK version is also great. Purchase at any local bakery

CHICAGO 'GRILL Ryans DAN U.S. $ 25

The best of Walt Disney World

So you're headed to Walt Disney World … but where to start? Disney offers such a wealth of fantastic resorts, dining and top-drawer entertainment experiences it can be difficult to choose which fantasy you wish to give pleasure. How best can you plan a visit in which each day comes with the best Disney has to offer? Here are some tips that can make the difference between a mediocre trip and a fantastic

Best time of year for Disney Vacation
If at all possible plan a trip to Disney during the slower seasons of the year where you'll find half-filled parks, little waiting in line, and hotel rates less. If you can bear the guilt and your children are good students, take them to school, whatever, to avoid the busiest times of the year. Otherwise, the summer months or holidays are certainly better than nothing, and with a little planning and a lot of energy, can be most enjoyable. There are less busy times year: Just after the New Year on the first week of February (avoiding the weekend of Martin Luther King holiday in January) and the third week of August to early October, the month of November Thanksgiving exclusion; just after Thanksgiving and again the week before Christmas week, a special time when the parks and resorts are decorated for the feast for vacation.

Best Luxury Resort
Disney's flagship resort, The Grand Floridian, with its red gabled roofs and Victorian elegance, draws Florida Sea large "palace" of 19th century American Gilded Age. Just a short monorail to the Magic United Kingdom, it spreads along the shore of Seven Seas Lagoon, offering spectacular views of Cinderella Castle and Wishes fireworks display.

Best Home Away From Home Property
Disney's Home Away From Home Resorts are a great choice for those who want a holiday with all amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen, a lounge and a bathroom for each bedroom. For outstanding atmosphere choose the Villas at Wilderness Lodge with its Bay Lake location and nature of the national park or the new Beach Club Villas located near Gateway International Epcot. But compare the new Animal Kingdom Villas, now under construction, to start these two from the list.

Best Resort to access the Parks
Disney's Contemporary, Polynesian, and Grand Floridian Resorts offer monorail access to the Magic Kingdom, Epcot and the Ticket & Transportation Center.

Best Resort For Nature lovers

Wilderness Lodge is a dramatic description of Disney an early 1900s national park station. In his impressive eight-story lobby are walls of ponderosa pine logs, a huge fireplace 82 feet high, and two authentic 55-foot totem poles of the Pacific Northwest. Outside is a breathtaking scene of falls water, rushing creeks, towering pines, and water heater clean Disney. And all just a boat ride away from the Magic Kingdom.

Best Resort Pool
Stormalong Bay, as eye-popping free, complex mini-water park at Disney Yacht and Beach Club, is simply divine. Three acres of liquidation water fun, it offers sandy bottom pools, a giant slide wrecked waterway, a tidal whirlpool, bubbling hot tubs, a children's pool with its own slide next to the beach, and enough to float lazily in inner tubes to your heart's content.

Best Resort Lounge
California Grill Lounge on the 15th floor at Disney's Contemporary Resort offers a breathtaking view of the Magic Kingdom and Seven Seas Lagoon with cocktails, sushi and a view of fireworks Wishes screen. NOTE: If you are only coming for drinks can be difficult to get a seat around fireworks time. You'll need to check first with the gallery's second floor.

Best Disney Attractions For Raiders
For a dose of adrenaline head to Disney-MGM Studios, where thrill junkies
beeline it to the Tower of Terror for a bungee-style 13-story free fall. Next-door is
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster that rockets from 0 to 60 km / h in less than 3 seconds, then loops
and corkscrews in the dark on a night in Hollywood. It's a scream come true!

Best way to spend an evening without children
If you are a registered guest at a Disney Resort, drop children at one of their child care centers, where they receive a dinner along with classic Disney movies, arts and crafts, and video games. If your child is under 4 or not potty trained, call Kid's Nite Out at 407-827-5444 for children in the room. Then the head of one of world-class restaurants from Disney. For fine dining in a unique setting combined with virtually flawless service choose Victoria and Albert's at Disney Grand Floridian Resort. Here you'll dine on white linen covered tables set with Royal Doulton china and crystal wine glasses to the strains of enchanting music Greenland.

Best way to spend an evening away from the Parks
The addition of the West Side and Pleasure Island to Disney Marketplace created what is now known as the wildly successful Downtown Disney, a combination of restaurants staged over 70, stores and nightclubs. During the day is a perfect getaway in the parks, but the night after the parks close, Downtown Disney comes alive. At Disney Marketplace you will find A-plus stores, the largest Disney Store in the world, and the volcano-smoking Rainforest Cafe. Pleasure Island is a mecca with 8 clubs and night one night New Year's Eve celebration. And then there's West Side, loaded with restaurants and entertainment venues including Wolfgang Puck Cafe, House of Blues, Gloria Estefan's Bongos, Cirque du Soleil and Disney Quest.

Best restaurant for kids

Dine amid crashing waterfalls, lush tropical vegetation, and the vines while being bombarded droplets with thunderstorms and noisy audio-animatronic wildlife in the Rainforest Cafe. Or head to the Whispering Canyon Cafe at Disney's Wilderness Lodge for an all-you-care-to-eat blow-out of rib-stickin 'barbecue served piping hot in iron pans accompanied by many hootin and hollerin ". The kids love the show Crazy established by the racing workhorse servers dressed in costumes of the West can not help make a huge production out of serving food, birthday celebrations, and sad to leave for the toilet.

Best Disney Resort Restaurant
The California Grill on the 15th floor of Disney's Contemporary Resort is a highlight for any connoisseur of cutting-edge cuisine. The immense windows present a panoramic view over the Magic Kingdom and Seven Seas Lagoon and on many nights the views of the perfect image of the will of fireworks. Pristinely fresh sushi to the exceptional New American cuisine and sensational desserts exceptional wine in California, this place has it all.

Best Restaurants Theme Park
In Epcot France Pavilion is Bistro de Paris, a charming Belle Époque dining room with an air of exclusivity. Filled with gilded mirrors and purple banquettes, its billowy white curtains windows overlooking part of the World Showcase Lagoon. Servers with delicious French accents roll flat sensational prepared with the freshest ingredients. Then a dessert of crepes prepared and flamed at your table by focusing more cordial and coffee in anticipation of the Illuminations show at night.

Best way to see the Epcot Fireworks Presentation
Each cargo evening visitors leave the dock of Disney's Yacht Club and head to Epcot where, from a privileged position under the bridge between the United Kingdom and France, is a Illuminations fireworks spectacular that can not be beaten. Cruises are offered nightly with your choice of a pontoon boat or a nice reproduction of a 1930 Chris Craft. Call 407-WDW-PLAY.

Best way to spend an evening
When your muscles are aching and your body screaming for rest after days in the parks, calm your nerves at Disney's Grand Spa Florida. Immerse yourself in luxury with one or two treatments of well-being guaranteed to rejuvenate and quickly get back on your feet and ready for another long day of walking. For the ultimate in romance consider the Grand Evening romantic, where in the room with a couple candles, each person receives an aromatherapy massage.

Things to do when in Vancouver

Vancouver is an incredibly dynamic and multicultural city experiencing tremendous growth in anticipation of the Games Winter Olympics 2010. Considered one of the most livable cities in the world and beautifully situated, Vancouver offers a wealth of experience interesting for the curious visitor. We present here some old favorites for travelers to enjoy, and one or two places off the beaten track for the adventurer curious.

1) Place du Canada

The first step for those who come to Vancouver would be to walk along the spectacular promenade Canada Place at the Waterfront Station. Built as the Canada Pavilion at Expo 1986 and which now houses the city Convention Center, a walk around the Place du Canada allows visitors to take in the beautiful harbor of Burrard Inlet, with its panorama of snowy mountains, Stanley Park and the towers of glass Modern Coal Harbour nearby.

Canada Place also showcases the dynamism of the economic power of Vancouver and its place in the market world. The entry with bubbling container bound for China to outside parties and beyond. In the cruise ships from summer in the world lines of dock along the wharf, en route to Alaska. Seaplanes take off for natural coves of the Inside Passage and helicopters bound for Vancouver Island increased energy scene.
This is where the Canadian Pacific completed the transcontinental railroad in 1889, giving Vancouver the nickname of "Terminal City". Since Vancouver has changed from being the 'End of line and is now considered the "Gateway to Asia" and the North. It is a perfect introduction to the city of Vancouver and not to be missed by the curious traveler.

2) The Spanish banks

For another perspective on the city overcome the beaches of Spanish Banks, on the north shore of Point Grey. In summer, with the low tide the golden sands of the beautiful beaches seem to stretch forever. The water is shallow and warm with tide during the warmer months, but at any time of year the view is breathtaking, with the top modern condo towers in Vancouver sparkling in the distance like shards of light in the bowl of jade green mountains beyond.

Enjoy a visit to the Jericho Sailing Association and share a huge plate of nachos served on the lovely terrace. From your perch commander, you can watch the boating enthusiasts and windsurfers to play on the water or see the majestic ships of the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club near tearing their sails. Further inland, the courts Ultimate Frisbee players spread over the green fields and tennis to attract some of the best players in the city.

The park area was once a seaplane base and the military camp during the Second World War and now contains a youth hostel, with a local community center and theater. It is a perfect place for a picnic or simply to escape the bustle of the city and worth visiting.

3) Sushi in West End

Vancouver is world famous for its venerable Chinatown and the hundreds of restaurants contained therein. The city was a home for immigrants from Asia since the construction Railway in the 19th century. Those who braved the journey to the "Gold Mountain" was with them the culinary traditions that have animated the palace of generations people in Vancouver. Besides Chinatown, Vietnamese, Korean and Vancouver once had a thriving Japantown along East Hastings, today regrettably declining.

Today, thousands of students in English from Japan and Korea have made the western region along the Robson Street Denman and a miniature Tokyo or Seoul. One of the best ways to enjoy the delights of the city is to visit some of the many restaurants offering affordable and delicious all-you-can-eat buffet of sushi and sashimi.

Shabusen restaurant at the corner of Burrard and Robson is an excellent place to start with its vast and beautiful selection Korean barbecue special on weekends, when you can cook chicken marinated spicy beef and pork to your own fire. A ruling is Tanpopo great restaurant near the corner of Denman and Davie, with its wealth of fresh wild salmon, tasty gyoza dumplings, savory spinach salad Ohitashi and a wonderful outdoor patio where you can watch life pass close to English Bay.

Be prepared to leave the two restaurants perfectly satisfied that you continue your exploration of the multicultural celebration that is Vancouver.

4) Exit at Gastown

For a night on the town Vancouver has much to offer the more adventurous. The Granville street gang is where party goers head to dance and drink all night under the neon lights Heritage and Orpheum theaters Vogue to these clubs that hosted the Republic, Tonic, Ginger 68, to name a few.

Gastown along the street is where the first European colony was established at the time former logging camp and parameters Regional saw one of the first saloon opened by the legendary Vancouver Deighton "Gassy" Jack in the late 1800s. In the streets paved, we can find some water that continues the excellent tradition established by the pioneers of Vancouver.

Close the original site "Gassy" Jack Deighton own Hotel is the charming Irish Heather Bistro, home of the best pints of Guinness in town. At the rear, built within the walls of the old prison shook the city, is a lovely glazed patio that hosts live music most nights of Irish and Scottish. The 'Heather' Progressive offers a menu that combines standard old pub with modern style.

For a more raucous scene try the Blarney Stone pub in the street. A typical dance hall Irish packed with university students on the weekend, the Blarney Stone is known throughout the city as a wild and rowdy place to make new friends and have a good time. There are tables foosball free upstairs and get ready to boo and shout with the violins and drums all night.

These are some of the many attractions of Vancouver force. Recommendations for sites to music, concerts and movies can be found in the entertainment section without cultural weekly paper "The Georgia Straight," found throughout the city. Pick one and you will not fail to find something for every taste.

5) Sports in the City

Vancouver has several professional sports franchises and a tradition of excellence. In 1915, the Vancouver Millionaires hoisted the famous Stanley Cup on the ice at the old Denman Arena, the first indoor ice rink of artificial ice hockey in North America.

Since then, the city teams are the Vancouver Canucks locally-loved by the National Hockey League and defunct Vancouver Grizzlies of the NBA. The 1994 and 2000 Grey Cup champion BC Lions of the Canadian Football League play at BC Place Stadium, site of the opening and closing of the Olympics Winter 2010.

Throughout the year there is always a game somewhere for fans of all sports and all budgets.

Some of best fun can be had with the minor league teams in Vancouver. The subsidiary of Oakland Vancouver Canadians Single "Game A" Northwest League Baseball in a case of an order of magnitude to Nat Bailey Stadium Park near Queen Elizabeth. It's a pleasant afternoon in baseball a lovely pastoral setting for young and old who often find themselves with music and fireworks, or a visit by the mayor.

If the tickets are Canucks too expensive or difficult to find an alternative to winter's Vancouver Giants Hockey League West. This young team played at the historic Pacific Coliseum on the grounds of the PNE fairgound a championship and leave the 2006 season.

Vancouver also saw a renewed interest in football, especially Risen with Vancouver Whitecaps. The team was champion of the League of soccer in North America in 1979 during the height of "soccernania ' Canada and the United States, winning the Cup of soccer in New York this year. They currently play at the Stade Swangard near a Skytrain station in Burnaby and we talk about a new downtown stadium in anticipation of Vancouver hosting the 2007 U-20 World Cup.

Stanley Park is named after Governor General of Canada who donated the Stanley Cup hockey and the city is waiting for his next championship and the eyes of the world in 2010 for the Olympics. With so things to do and see, a visit to Vancouver is more interesting than ever. It's a chance to share the excitement and enjoy the hospitality This "city of tomorrow".

What can you get in the fight against dessert in the bistro? If someone CAN CAN ANSWER most of the questions I will mark you as the BEST answer (and you get 10 points)

Yes you get a souvenir if you eat at the cafe: The http://www.americangirl.com/stores/experience_cafe.php stores in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago have cafes, bistros not. Only stores in Atlanta, Dallas, Minneapolis and Boston pubs. I think that coffee seems more enjoyable than a bistro. I was past Store in NY many times (I used to work a block away) and it's huge. I think they have a ton of goods there. Honestly, if you can afford a hotel here that I'd just recommend going to one of NY. There are so many other things to do in New York that your daughter will be an explosion.
