Orlando is a great destination for family travel and luxury adult vacation. With nightlife, golf, spa, entertainment and great dining options, Orlando has made it on the map as one of the best luxury destinations. journeyPod had the pleasure to stay at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal, a property that boasts impressive Italian decor and service. Reminiscent of Portofino, Italy, the hotel sends guests on a journey to the Almalfi coast (minus the passport). Send the kids to Campo Portofino and indulge in a spa treatment, room service, bocci ball, fine dining and entertainment. Lay by the villa pool with cucumbers on your eyes, in an Italian garden, and truly feel like you have traveled miles away from home. Enjoy nightly opera performances in the piazza and let Mamma cook for you at Mamma Della's, an authentic Tuscan restaurant in the heart of the piazza. Only a water taxi ride away from Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, City Walk, Loews Pacific and the Loews Hard Rock Hotel - Loews Portofino Bay Resort is the ideal getaway for any type of traveler!

This video entry is to explain some recent goings-on as well as tell about a good friend who gave up growing a green lawn in suburbia. Around the same time he was telling me this, I had also visited the Jersey shore where there were reports of an dangerous explosion in the Jelly Fish population. The causes? Nitrogen from all the fertilizers people use on their lawns that washes into the ocean. Another cause, warm water from the Oyster Bay nuclear power plant nearby. My focus here is more on the fertilizer and energy wasted on lawn care versus the price we pay collectively for the damage done to the environment.  This situation was very well illustrated by a recent edition of On Point from NPR.  Wherever you live, I encourage you to stop watering the lawn, stop fertilizing, take a stand in your everyday life and change this rediculous and dangerous suburban tradition.

This morning the hyaena den produced a new hyaena but no sign of the others. This youngster, about 18months old strolled up to the back of my car and proceeded to chew on it. Not on the rubber tyres but on the metal handle! They sure love eating cars. Wanting to get some better photos of the youngster I got out the car. He ran off but was immediately back to investigate. Instinct told him to run but he just couldn’t resist coming to check me out. He would come up close, scare himself, run off and then come right back again. This went on for about half an hour. Eventually we both got bored of each other and he moved off. He was walking away in the dense mopanie when I suddenly saw he take off like lightening. What could be chasing him, a lion? No, it was a mother warthog with her 2 little piglets. And so the game started. The hyaena would saunter back towards the warthog and the mother would chase him off. This must have gone on at least 20 minutes. I could only just see glimpses through the mopanie and was frustrated as it was pointless me even trying to film anything. When the hyaena finally gave up on the warthogs, I left. Walking up to the wild dog den, crunching every leaf I could find, I got there with no sign of the adults or pups. I was standing close to the den when the adults suddenly barked. They must have smelt me. It was then only that I saw the pups. They were on top of the den and came careering round the front only to find me a few meters away. It didn’t stop them as they bolted underground. But 2 of them battled to squeeze through the hole. It’s actually quite worrying ‘cos the pups are quite big now and getting in and out the den is a problem. And even more of a problem getting out. I just hope they don’t get stuck in there. No doubt they’ll soon move again. At least I got to see the little guys. They seemed well. I wasn’t able to get a head count but there seemed to be enough of them. With both those bases covered, wild dogs and hyaenas, I went drifting around the reserve for a few hours before heading back to camp to work on my vehicle. It’s been taking quite a bashing and I haven’t worked on it for ages. It’s probably going to keep me busy a few days yet. Banyini was pretty active this afternoon with lots of plains game scattered around. And then at sunset I took my chance on the elephants. There was a small family herd drinking at Simbiri dam. This time I caught them just as the sun set. Still not the best time but at least I was able to film something!

Beijing Olympics water demand puts farmers under pressure -- Climate change turns world’s drying wetlands into "carbon bomb“ -- A key region in biodiversity protection: the South American Pantanal -- these stories and more in this edition of Living Planet. Tune in via the live-stream or download the programme as a podcast. Send your comments and questions to features@dw-world.de. Beijing Olympics Water Demand Puts Farmers Under Pressure Beijing says it will host ”green Olympics” next month. But the water needed for the greenery is taken away from farmers in the provinces around Beijing.Thousands of trees have been planted in Beijing, new parks have been built, and in the weeks until the opening ceremony on August 8th, 40 million flowers are being planted alongside roads and at the Olympic venues. All that ”greenery” needs water of course – and that is usually in short supply in Beijing. The authorities have come up with a plan to transfer water from a neighbouring province, Hebei province. Locals there are angry. The plan also highlights much broader problems with China’s water policies. Report: Ruth Kirchner Climate Change Makes World’s Drying Wetlands "Carbon Bomb“ The Pantanal wetland is one of the largest annually flooded savannas of the World. Cuiabá, which lies in Brazil, north of the Pantanal, is host city of the INTECOL International Wetland Conference. Wetlands are important carbon sinks. If they are destroyed further, experts fear a "carbon bomb" could explode.“Pantanal” is Portuguese for “swamp". The Pantanal wetland is situated in the triangle formed by Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay. The town of Cuiabá borders the Brazilian part of the Pantanal. This year Cuiabá was chosen as host city for the INTECOL wetland conference. Every four years scientists working in the field of wetland conservation come together to discuss the latest studies, conservation politics, and mechanisms to sustainably use wetlands. Dr Paulo Teixeira is the co-chair of the INTECOL. He calls wetlands a carbon bomb that could potentially have a dangerous impact on our climate if their destruction is not prevented. Interview: Nina Haase The Pantanal is one of the areas declared by global conservation group WWF to be a key-eco-region for the protection of the earth's biodiversity. It was one of the areas featured in a Deutsche Welle feature series on WWF Eco-regions, in which Living Planet talks to the people involved in conserving the Bolivian side of the Pantanal wetlands.

*HEADPHONES STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* *NEWS* Head over to The DPN and pay a visit to our newest official DPN podcaster. I'd like to welcome Keegan from The Adventures of a Teenage Disney Geek Podcast to The DPN Roster. Tokyo Disneyland Morning Meandering Photos Taken by The Meandering Mouse in Tokyo - found at http://www.flickr.com/photos/meanderingmouse - Check them out! This show will open with an in-park recording of Tokyo's special 25th Anniversary Theme Song. I was captivated by this song during my entire Tokyo Disney experience. They played this song throughout the parks on many occasions especially after parades and shows. Unfortunately, the CD single of this song I purchased in the park came only in Japanese and doesn't sound nearly as enchanting. The clapping you hear is coming from guests as each of the Fab Five passes in front of Lido Isle on floats to conclude DisneySEA's Legend of Mythica. Listen closely to the girl FREAKING OUT when Minnie waved to her. It was an oddly funny moment and insight into how serious the Japanese are over the Disney Characters. And for the main portion of the show....Join myself, Superdry, and Matt from Dallas for a relaxing morning at Tokyo Disneyland. We first take in, arguably, one of Disney's best attractions with Pooh's Hunny Hunt. Then we head over to the Haunted Mansion which is oddly located in Fantasyland along with Pooh. To finish things off, we take in my favorite version of Splash Mountain in Tokyo's Critter Country. Overall, it's a well-rounded offering of Tokyo e-ticket attractions.
