AND THE AWARD GOES TO...

I was in the book store today and look what I found that's out on the magazine stand- Travel & Leisure magazine's World's Best Awards! This is such a great tool to help you plan your next JetSetSmart destination and travel plan details.

It ranks Top Cities Overall, Top Islands Overall, Top Tour Operators & Safari Outfitters, Top International & Domestic Airlines, and Top 100 Hotels! (I'm drooling!)

I won't list them all for you, but here are the Numero Uno's that are Smart to know about:
Top City- Udaipur, India
Top Island- Bali
Top Hotel- Bushmans Kloof (Cedar Mountains, South Africa)

Bali & South Africa are definitely on my list of destinations to jet to in the next year or so. If any of you all have been to either of those places, please share your details.

I can say that I have been to the top city, and it actually was my favorite city that we visited when we were in India for our honeymoon. Udaipur is often called The White City or The City of Lakes because most of the buildings are white or light in color, and it's next to Lake Pichola which is filled with many BEAUTIFUL palaces. I've included some pics of Udaipur & Udaivilas- The Oberoi Hotel where we stayed while we were there. I hope you enjoy! And don't forget to jet to your local bookstore for a copy of the magazine. It's well worth the $4.50...I promise!
