SandwichesShouldNeverTasteLikeCowCrap.jpegSandwiches Should NEVER Taste Like Cow Crap by Dave Lowe (published by Manta Press in 2008) is a tasty stew of stories from life on the Lowe Road.

Starting with strip searches at foreign customs, run-ins with tatami dragon ladies, rides aboard horny camels, shots fired by AK-47's, wheels breaking off taxis and more than a flightmare or two - Dave's travelogue poses a question: Are his size 13 shoes spreading mayhem and chaos with each step?

Only the Travel Gods know for sure.....

Dave Lowe's blog, The Lowe Road covers what's happening in travel, from zero to seven to star, hovels to hotels, donkeycarts to airlines and anything else useful that may come in handy for that future luxury resort vacation in North Korea.

Dubai's Underwater Hotel 

DateThursday, May 31, 2012 at 10:37PM

Despite the tanking of its economy in late 2008, Dubai's tourism industry is still booming, and the latest addition to the emirates array of luxury properties is rumored to be the Water Discus Hotel - a disc shaped property with the bottom half completely submerged beneath the Arabian Gulf. 

With just 21 rooms, guests will have views of coral reefs that can be explored through the property's onsite dive center. 

The UAE's track record isn't good when it comes to building: the current world's tallest tower - The Burj - will soon lose its crown, and The World island chain built offshore to host luxury properties - is slowly sinking. 

Conceived by Deep Ocean Technology, a manufacturer of ocean going undersea vessels, the Discus hotel comes after two previous properties that were designed but never built.
