Dublin is a great 3 day getaway from Atlanta! For cheap transportation from the airport to the city center, take the Aircoach bus for approx. 7 EUR. Look for the signs at the airport. Dublin is a wonderful “walking” city. Be sure to visit some of the great Irish Pubs in the Temple Bar area.
If you get a chance, visit MalahideCastle. Take the northbound DART to Malahide Station. The castle is within walking distance from the train station.
My niece had a destination wedding at the Iberostar Paraiso del Mar hotel in Riviera Maya. It is an all inclusive hotel, and the food was great. They did have several restaurants that you could make reservations at for your evening meal. It was a large resort, but they provided golf carts for transportation, or you could get your exercise by walking. The beach was also great, and there were plenty of chairs available for the sun bathers. They had beach volleyball and poolside activities if you wanted to participate. They had a gym, tennis courts, theater, disco, shopping center and a chapel. Parasailing and jet ski rentals were available for an additional fee. The staff was very friendly, and they made our stay very enjoyable. The best part was our family could all be in one location and enjoy the beautiful location and her special day together!
It's been a while since anyone submitted any travel stories, so I'll take this opportunity to share some of a family member's big adventure "Down Under". My nephew, Chris Kittredge is currently touring with the popular alternative hip-hop band, "Arrested Development" in Australia and took some time out to share these awesome photos from Sydney and various other stops along the way. Chris began drumming with his church band in his teen years and loved it so much he decided to study music in college to pursue a career in music full time. In recent weeks, a guitarist for the band saw some of Chris's video clips online and called him up for an audition to accompany the band on their upcoming tour. And as they say, "the rest is history!"
Chris and the band left Atlanta on Christmas Day to begin their tour in Queensland, Australia - arriving just as the flood waters were beginning to surround the area. Thankfully, the band made it safely to their first gig and performed to a lively crowd in spite of the rains and continued on to their next stop under clearer skies. Some recent stops have included Coolangatta, Melbourne, Vic, Perth, and here are some photos from Sydney. After seeing images of this beautiful place, I will definitely be making plans to visit Australia myself in the near future! Wish I were there now cheering on Chris... I guess music is just in my blood... Actually, it runs pretty deep in this family.
There are also a couple links below the slide show to music video clips of the band performing their hit, "People Everyday" and "Mr. Wendal" to view in your spare time. :-)
Hello, my name is Evelyn Brown Wilder, and I am an employee of Delta Global Staffing. Since joining DGS, I have been enjoying my flight privileges to the utmost!! My husband and I spent 2 weeks in Kona, Hawaii in June, and some co-workers and I spent 5 days this month (Oct) in Maui, Hawaii. This was my third trip to Maui so you see that I LOVE Maui, right? :-) I think I need a dual residency between Georgia and Hawaii :-)
These are just a few of many pictures that I have taken since being hired at DGS, and I thank God everyday for this opportunity. This job is God sent, and please believe I take it as just that. I love what I'm doing at DGS working in the Sky Club....
Ok, will post some more pictures later after my trip to Dubai for my birthday leaving Nov. 28th to celebrate my birthday Dec 1st....
Thank you,
A very thankful employee

Evelyn Brown Wilder - 2010
My daughter and grandkids had never been to South Florida, so off we went to visit “Uncle Brian” over Labor Day week-end. The kids had not flown since they were babies, and my daughter had not been on a plane for many years. Once we worked through what could and could not be taken on the plane (LOL) we were off for a full week-end of fun.
First stop Saturday morning was the Miami Zoo. We did not let 90+ temps and high humidity stop us as we spent hours and hours walking and riding around this beautiful zoo. It is amazing what they have done to restore the zoo after being destroyed by Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
To cool off after the zoo we headed to the beach for a quick swim. Love the quiet natural beaches in the area, no South Beach for us.
Sunday morning we are off to Key Biscayne for a day on the water. Snorkeling the reef was amazing, watching the kids spot fish and even a shark, priceless. What a relaxing way to enjoy the beauty of the Keys.
Monday morning was filled with site seeing. The rest of the time we ate. What an international city with many choices! Cuban was the most requested and devoured cuisine. Many family memories were made.
