sounds (birdcalls in particular) of the American West. If you've ever been to Zion National Park or Bryce Canyon, then this musical travelogue will certainly stimulate your memory. Messiaen's musical language in all of these works is unique. You won't find conventional melody or harmony, but it is colorful and consistent, and he's just as likely to use lovely, consonant harmonies as nasty dissonant ones. Once you understand that the purpose of his music is almost purely descriptive, your own imagination takes over and it becomes fascinating and enjoyable--which is a good description of these fine performances. --David Hurwitz

Mokai Gravity Canyon is a centre for performing a trio of adrenaline sports - bungee jumping, canyon swinging and their world famous flying fox. It is located near Taihape, New Zealand, a couple of hours drive North of Wellington.
The Canyon itself
The canyon itself featured in some river scenes of Lord of the Rings, so you may recognise it. The walls of the canyon are sheer and mostly bare with a few lone plants clinging on in a few places. The narrow road leading from the main road to the centre winds back and forth and crosses the canyon by bridge several times. As we crossed each bridge, I noticed that the river was getting steadily further and further below the road, causing the knot in my stomach to grow a little more each time with trepidation at what lay ahead. By the time we got there, I felt like I had had a dozen cups ...

Advantages: Clean, courteous, good food, great location, easy access Disadvantages: all the one night coach stop over people
We recently had the pleasure of staying 5 nights at Rubys during a road trip that my husband and I starting from Las Vegas. Our trip started at LV, took in tthe Grand Canyon, then onto Lake Powell, then to Bryce Canyon and finally back to Las Vegas. We chose to spend 5 nights at Rubys because of the scenery, the things to do and just to explore somewhere that little bit different.
Location - Well its absolutely stunning! Rubys inn is at the gateway of Bryce Canyon which in my opinion is breathtaking and a must for those of you visiting this area. We travelled a few hours from Lake Powell (probably 4 hours) but the time goes so fast because theres so much to look at and the driving is so easy, theres nothing on the roads!! We started to see the red rock formations which opened onto this vast plain and there nestling ...
Advantages: Different plot Disadvantages: Not for all
