Quebec City Today

July 12, 2008 By: Squidster Category: Lens Updates, Squidoo No Comments →

Quebec City or Québec (French: Ville de Québec, or simply Québec) is the capital of the Canadian province of Quebec. It is the second largest city in the province, after Montreal. Quebec’s Old Town (Vieux-Québec), the only North American fortified city north of Mexico whose walls still exist, was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1985 as the "Historic District of Old Quebec". It is also one of the oldest cities in North America. The city has a population of 528,595, and the metropolitan area has a population of 717,600 (2005). Quebec City is known for its Winter Carnival and the Château Frontenac, a historic hotel which dominates the city skyline. The National Assembly of Quebec (provincial parliament), the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec (National Museum of Fine Arts) and the Museum of Civilization are found within or near Vieux-Québec. Among the tourist attractions in the city are Montmorency Falls and the Basilica of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré in the town of Beaupré. Wikipedia

Oktoberfest in Munich | Bavaria | Germany | Beer | Food | Costume | 2008

July 12, 2008 By: Squidster Category: Lens Updates, Squidoo No Comments →

Oktoberfest 2008 season is heading our way! Having lived many years in Munich myself, I found that the Oktoberfest is an inescapable reality you can either love or hate. It celebrates Bavarian tradition like no other single event.

On the other hand it is the perfectly acceptable excuse for party animals from all over the world to convene in Bavaria’s capital and drink as much beer as they can (afford) before they pass out. But there’s more to the Oktoberfest than excessive alcoholism. Everybody who has joined the madness at least once in their life and survived will have their own personal memories to pass on to the next generation. Oans, Zwoa, Drei, G’suffa! (The battle cry of Bavarian beer drinkers)   P.S.: With the unveiling of this year’s colorful motif, preparations for Oktoberfest 2008 in Munich, the 175th Oktoberfest anniversary, have officially begun. Time to finalize your travel plans! For tips and ideas I hope you will find inspiration in this lens!

July 12, 2008 By: Squidster Category: Lens Updates, Squidoo No Comments →

What is the difference between auto loans and auto leasing? Having worked in car sales for a dozen years, I frequently encountered confusion and misconception when it comes to financing a new or used car. With a variety of auto financing options available to car buyers, I’d like to take a closer look at the more common forms of auto finance and hopefully help bewildered buyers to make better informed decisions.

Olympic Games | Origin, Present and Future of The Games Of The Olympiad

July 12, 2008 By: Squidster Category: Lens Updates, Squidoo No Comments →

The Olympic Games (often referred to simply as The Olympics or The Games) is an international multi-sport event subdivided into summer and winter sporting events. The summer and winter games are each held every four years (an Olympiad). Until 1992, they were both held in the same year. Since then, they have been separated two years apart.

The original Olympic Games began in 776 BC in Olympia, Greece, and were celebrated until AD 393.

The upcoming games in Beijing are planned to comprise 302 events in 28 sports.

Squidgets & Squidlets | Squidster’s Squidoo Mascots

July 12, 2008 By: Squidster Category: Lens Updates, Squidoo No Comments →

I love Squidoo, and think it’s only fitting to give my lenses a little mascot to show how much I care.

Squidoo gives us non-techies all these great tools to build our lenses and I just like to put a cherry on top with my squidgets and the smaller, lesser-known Squidlets.

This lens helps me keep track of all my babies.
