May Carnival of Travelers: Local Events
Welcome to the May 7th, 2008 edition of the Carnival of Travelers. Yes, I know it’s a few days late, but real life has a way of catching up with lately.
Our theme for May was Local Events, and it was one that bloggers seemed to have a lot of trouble with. Many submissions were off topic, and despite being well written and creative, they are not listed here. I thank everyone for participating, along with a gentle reminder that this is a themed carnival.
I am happy to present the following travel blogs post on the theme Local Events:
- Christine presents Open Air Market in Barcelona posted at Me, My Kid and Life: An American Single Mom Living in France. Markets are an event seen round the world.
- Mary Jo presents UFO Sighting & Festival in Oregon posted at Flyaway Cafe, saying “enthusiasts of extraterrestrials, UFO sightings, aliens, and all sorts of other mysteries will want to know about this festival.”
- Jack Norell presents Europride in Stockholm summer 2008 posted at Eyeflare - Travel Articles and Tips, saying, “Europride is taking place in Stockholm, Sweden, this year between 25 July and 3 August. It’ll be the biggest event on the European Gay and Lesbian calendar and great fun for everyone with an open mind.”
- Gray presents Sweet Outing posted at SoloFriendly.com. about the Maple Syrup Festival.
- Jon Rochetti presents Sail on a Colonial Tall Ship posted at The DC Traveler – Washington DC travel & tourism information, saying, “Get your sea legs ready for a cruise on the revolutionary-era British tall ship, the Sultana, and get a taste of life as a British sailor.”
- Heatheronhertravels presents The Fallas museum - in Valencia posted at Heather on her travels, saying, “Heatheronhertravels describes the Fallas festival which happens every March in the city of Valcencia when pyrotechnical mania grips the city. If you can’t visit then or prefer a more peaceful experience, you can see the sculptures at the Fallas museum which is open all year round.”
- Mary Jo presents An Angel Whispered to Me: “See Corteo” posted at The Seattle Traveler saying, “Cirque du Soleil performs in their annual Pacific Northwest event.”
That concludes this edition of the Carnival of Travelers. Thanks to all the travel bloggers who submitted such great posts about local events.
You can submit your blog article to the next edition of the Carnival of Travelers using our carnival submission form.
The June theme is Photos. All submissions must be a great photo (or photos) of a travel destination, event, attractions, etc., that you have personally taken. This is a photo submission, and text should be short and explanatory in nature only. So dust off your camera, and take a great travel shot. (NOTE: Please confirm in your post, or in the submission notes, that the photo is one that you have taken.)
