Good morning travelers! Around here we call it Aloha Friday! Before I ask you if you’re going to take a “staycation” this weekend, let me find out if you hate the word “staycation.” Because if you don’t like the marketing-induced buzz word staycation then you’re not alone. I was cracking up when I read Upgrade: Travel Better’s blog post Forbidden words 2008: “Staycation.” I know, it’s been a short news week in the travel world.
Local | Are theme parks becoming trendy? Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon throw a wedding reception at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California.
This weekend | Catch the last few days of the Los Angeles Comedy Festival; hey foodies, there’s a Guacamole Festival in Lincoln Heights on Saturday and Sunday; 15 of the city’s top bakeries compete against one another in the L.A. Cupcake Challenge in Hollywood.
Global | Are you worried about the world disappearing before you can see it? Read: “20 Cities, Islands & Countries Threatened By Global Warming” [ProTraveller]
Have a great weekend everybody.

Mariah and Nick, you look so nice together. It is nice to see the celebs finally getting married. It is a wonderful thing. I grew up listening to Nick Cannon and watching his shows. I also love Mariah Carey’s cds especially E=MC2. I can’t stop listening to that cd. Keep up the good work.

i love my sister mariah but why did she marry nick cannon….
May 22nd, 2008 at 2:36 pm
I totally agree with statuesqe, I mean she was my favorite until now. She is too old for him, come one people, it’s like taking a young guy’s freedom, see she is now trying to control his life. No good. “Bye Bye” lol.
May 27th, 2008 at 7:39 pm

man nick cannon ndz 2 fnd hm slf another wmen pls he ndz 2 stp actng lke a big perve
June 24th, 2008 at 12:01 pm
I think age doesn’t matter. Nick Cannon is not a bad man to have as a husband and he has HIS OWN MONEY!!! He is successful with a multimillion dollar clothing line. I do not believe everything printed in the news. Nick and Mariah had this relationship going on…way before anyone knew about it. We just finding out now about it.
December 9th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
i love your music and i wish you were ma sister
October 29th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
you two are so stupid to be together but really its no bodys choice its yours and your mans choice so follow your heart :-)
