What are some good haunted house places in Orlando for Halloween?|147925

Our anniversary is Halloween and usually we either eat out in town or go to Bush Gardens for their halloween thing. This year we want to make it a 4 day event where we would go to the one at Bush Gardens first night and then head over to Orlando for the 2nd night to go to Universal Studios_ halloween thing (maybe catch some horror flicks before hand). But the last time I looked, I remember there was some haunted houses there that were regular attractions (not some one put together by JCs or a school or something) that you could go to. If anybody knows of any or can recommend some good ones or unique ones (like a cornfield one that was in a place I lived once) that would be great.

In downtown Kissimmee they offer ghost tours nightly at BH Extreme Ghost Hunting Tours. Must make reservation at least 5 days in advance. Check in time for tours is 8:15 pm and tour lasts until 10:30 pm. From their website: Tours include: transportation in an air-conditioned H1 Limo, Certified Ghost Hunter , use of an EMF meter, photo opportunities and a terrific guide! Armed with meters that measure electromagnetic fluctuations, Ghost Hunters (that_s YOU) discover the existence of ghosts at historic and haunted sites. At the end, you_ll have learned enough to photograph spirit images, recognize manifestations, hear mysterious stories and delve into the world of spirits. Not to mention learning some great history! And join us for a grave yard hunt, as we explore the unknown, reveal the art and traditions of ghost hunting, and stories of those still lurking amongst the shadows. A superb evening of history, ghost hunting, tradition and mystery.
If you check out the website and click on Haunted Kissimmee, it will list the stops on the tour. Highly recommended you bring a camera.


There_s also the Haunted Grimm House of Old Town located on Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy. (hwy 192) down by I-4 which is a year round haunted house attraction.

I went on this tour and it was very rushed, the guide was rude, and when my mother was hurt, he could care less and would not help us at all. This tour is a joke to any real _Ghost_ fan.

I would not reccomend this tour to anyone! look for another!

Hi I am Steve the owner I have looked back to see if we have your name on file we do not this means you are with the other tour comp. trying to make us look bad .Nice try. Who was your guide E-Mail me

Hey you named the top two already, as far as outside ones like cornfields, I wouldnt advise due to death from snakes and all the other crap here, Take a look into St. Augustine. They have ghost tours that go through the city and tell all the scary stories, My g/f and I have been on it and It was cool plus the city is wonderful.

Where can i take high school kids on a trip to new york city?|136576

We are from Boston and i don_t know the city that well. Taking between 10 and 15 kids and it has to be an educaional trip or something like that within walking distance of ground zero also? Please help?

Wall Street, The Brooklyn Bridge, The Graves of Alexander Hamilton and Robert Fulton, St Paul_s Chapel (where President Washington went to church), to name just a few spots within walking distance.
Don_t miss walking along the Hudson River and the Winter Garden at the World Financial Center.

you can get a tour of the NY stock exchange thats pretty interesting depending on the age of the kids and NBC a local news station does tours for high school groups too! Have a great time

Take them to Ground Zero and show them World Trade Center 7(it_s open) then cross the Brklyn bridge. Battery Park and show them the Statue and ellis Is. show them the cilton Cir. I thnk they let people in the woolworth building. Should be safe now because there are like police on every corner in Dwntown

I recommend Ellis Island/Statue of Liberty. I_m sure many of your students had relatives that came through Ellis Island.

There are a number of great museums in lower Manhattan. For a list, go to the New York City Convention Center_s web site:

If you click on the link for _Planning Your Trip_ and then click on _Family Travel,_ you_ll be able to get ideas for visiting with kids or teens.

Let me add that few people mention that the United Nations is in Manhattan. I remember visiting it with my school as well as with my parents and I was do impressed that I can remember it to this day.

don_t forget the South Street Seaport, it_s a little bit of a walk from Ground Zero but the pay off is the Brooklyn Bride in its massive full glory. The S.S.Seapot also has a museum and such. Try to look up some info from them and see if you can arrange something theire. Historical and authentic.

depends on the class i guess. for science id obviously go to the natural history museum, art id go to the met or moma, for history id go way downtown for a walking tour,

see the staute of washington where he took his oath of office on broad and wall st across from the exchange ,trinity church, battery park at the tip of manhattan ,francines tavern where washington bid farewell to his officers, south st seaport and veiw the river aand its sights you can walk over to city hall up to chinatown and little italy ,then into grenwich village

What is the difference between a northern Ohio and a California accent?|150057

Please give some examples (some words both pronounce differently, or some terminology) to illustrate the difference. As I understand it, Drew Carey has the perfect Ohio accent; and a lot of northern Californians have the perfect Californian accent. But to my ear (of a native of NJ), I do not notice ANYTHING different between the accents. They both sound like the standard American accent.

Soda vs pop. Other than that, not too much. Or maybe I_m not aware of it coming from NJ as well.

What are some price ranges on apartments in hawaii?|146795

I am permanently moving to Honolulu for school, and I was thinking of a one bedroom apartment, but is there cheapers alternatives, and what is the pricing on one bedrooms?

You can get an efficiency for about $800. A contel/condtel (hotel room that has a kitchenette) for around $700, but your best bet is roommates. My neighbors are college students they live in a 3 bed room, 2 bath condo for $3200 monthly(guessing on their rent), which is a _luxury_ high-rise.

Good Luck with the apartment and school hunt!

delusional people like john/leroy can be the token guy from the mainland working through our armed forces, living in hawaii.... you can point at/blame obama for someone like him.
its gonna be expensive and the schools are NOT at all exceptional. for instance, look at the primary and middle schools, some of the worst education inthe country.

Things are pretty chaotic right now and you can bargain with your landlord. A friend of my just had his rent reduced by $200 per month (he_d told the landlord he was moving because he couldn_t afford the apartment any longer)

cheap apartments are like 900 or 800 a month..you_ll be luck if you find one that cost 700 a month, and that_s for 1 bedroom apartments. do yourself a favor, and just stay where you are right now,, because if you are worrying about money, you have no business being here in hawaii..only rich people like me can live here comfortably

Where would be a good place for engagement photos in San Francisco?|138292

We_d like to have the Golden Gate Bridge in the background, but would take suggestions for other places as well. We were thinking Baker_s Beach, but i had heard that it was clothing optional, and we will have our young daughter with us. Any input is appreciated. Thank you.

I_m going to go along with the Palace of the Legion of Honor. It_s usually not crowded at all, it_s a fabulous view of the bridge and Bay, and you have some other options of places for photos (statues, gardens).

Baker (as I mentioned in your other question) can get windy and sandy.

You also might consider going across the bridge to the Marin Headlands, where you can get shots like this:

The grounds of the Palace of Legion of Honor overlook the GG Bridge so that could work well. When I did my engagement photos that is one of the options we tried. We got some great pictures but decided to go with a different option.

Some other suggestions for GG Bridge backdrop
Ft. Point
Ft. Mason
Ft. Baker in marin

or some other great spots to try for an only in SF feel.
Portals of the Past, Conservatory of Flowers, Japanese Tea Garden, or the windmill in Golden Gate Park
Sutro Heights park has some beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean
Coit Tower or the Fillbert Street Steps
Embarcadaro with the Bay Bridge or the TransAmerica building in the background.
Treasure Island with the city spread out behind you

Congratulations on your engagement!

The above poster is right on the mark with Ft. Mason. Beautiful up there!

Also, think about Treasure Island, right on the banks, where you can get a phenomenal picture of the SF skyline and Bay Bridge in the background!

Fort Point is also a good place. Another is Crissy Field.
