The other day I overheard a conversation between two women discussing their summer holiday plans and revealing that even in Britain in 2008, there are people who are still dependent on travel agents for booking their vacations and have no knowledge of how to do it online for themselves.

Sal is an island in the Republic Of Cape Verde, which is a group of sub-tropical islands lying about 500 km off the west coast of Africa.
The three eastern islands, of which Sal is the northern one, are known as the sandy islands, indeed the centre one Boa Vista is advertised as ‘The Island of Dunes’.
Sal boasts 350 days of sun annually and the temperature throughout the year varies by only a few degrees either side of a pleasant 26oC. These days rain is a rarity; indeed the first thing you notice on leaving the airport is how arid the island is. The tour guide said they had not had any decent rain for 25 years. Much to everyone’s surprise we did have an hour or two of rain on a couple of days.

It’s impossible to visit France and not to attend one of the main attractions of the French capital - the Louvre. The biggest and the most famous world museum was opened to public on August 10, 1793. Before that it used to be a private museum available only to the elite of the court. The palace, where the museum is situated, is more than 800 years old, being initially a fortress of Philip Augustus. Today there is a special exhibition devoted to this page of the museum history. Works of all historical epochs and art currents (up to the XIX century) are represented in the Louvre. The Italian collection, which is considered to be the best outside the limits of Italy, has always attracted connoisseurs, tourists and artists from all over the world.

We all have our own little idiosyncrasies for driving; for example, older people tend to move more slowly and cautiously than younger people who race pell-mell down the highway; and people tend to drive according to the customs of the geographical region they come from regardless where they currently are. Nonetheless, I have assembled a “Top 10″ list of the basic driving habits that really irritates me and, if corrected, would make driving a lot more bearable for all of us. There is nothing earth-shattering here, just some observations on common driving deficiencies:
