Shark Attacks on Holiday
Dangerous Reef is a famous Western Australia dive destination due to the sharks which can be observed in it. Divers who enjoy intense and risky sports usually choose this Australian area as their diving destination. Due to the real danger that these sharks imply, it is important for visitors and divers who learn the proper safety rules before going into this area's waters. One of Dangerous Reef's most known spots is a group of islands known as the Neptune Islands. The Neptune Islands are located at an isolated area and their main characteristic is that they are inhabited by a great colony of seals that have built their permanent habitat in the islands and have turned them into their home. The kinds of sharks that can be seen at Dangerous Reef are very varied. Divers who visit this area could be able to se great white sharks in such a way that they could hardly see at other places. These sharks are usually attracted to the Neptune Islands due to the seals which live in them, and therefore those visitors who wish to have a close view of these sharks should visit these islands. Divers and visitors in general who come to Dangerous Reef with the main intention of observing the sharks should plan their visit between March and May. Between March and May is when white sharks can be more easily seen due to the fact that during this time is when there are more chances that they would approach the shallow area. Besides the sharks and seals which can be observed when visiting it, Dangerous Reef also offers other interesting attractions. This Reef contains some very beautiful corals which divers could enjoy along with this area's interesting reef walls. Between March and April is the best time for visiting Dangerous Reef. During these months is when the reef corals offer the best picture to observe and therefore it might be the ideal time for visiting the area as well as during those months is when visitors in general can also have the chance to observe sharks near shallow waters.

You can have hundreds of Stories...
With our holiday homes you can have hundreds of interesting travel stories to tell your friends and family.
A Dirty City Called Frankfurt
Frankfurt, Germany
We got to Frankfurt at midnight with five hours to kill until morning when we could hitch a ride to the rainbow gathering in Meiningen. We sat down to have a smoke, wishing we'd meet some locals to take us to coffee, beer, burgers, and milkshakes when a cute boy walked by and smiled. I smiled back. He walked over to us a minute later and in broken English explained to us he was waiting for a five a.m. train to his hometown 150 km away. We decided to look for a bar together. I liked the way he leaped over the hedges to ask two old bums drinking a beer where the nearest bar was. "Danka!" we cried out as we walked away, exercising our ability to pronounce at least one word in German right.A few minutes later we stumbled upon a pizza place. Tiffany had been ranting regularly about pizza cravings during the last week and was thrilled. We sat down to beer and pizza and Sasha told us about the time he had gotten so stoned he cared about recycling. "My cell phone is too big," he said. He told us how raves are cool and gave me a techno cd. We explained our plan to hitchhike to Erfurt the next day. Sasha told us his friend was driving halfway there the next morning and could give us a ride. He would call in the morning and arrange everything. We couldn't believe our good luck.
I went to the bathroom, pausing to consider the idiosyncrasies of bathroom décor before returning to the table to be told we were leaving immediately. Sasha's friend had called and we were meeting him at the train station.
He rushed us out of the parlor and hurried us down the street toward the station. We stopped to give a bum some pizza, holding up deformed hands like proof. Sasha said handing him two cigarettes and laughing nervously. He definitely had a nervous laugh, and I wasn't sure why we were in a hurry. When I paused to consider it, I wasn't sure why his sleeping friend who was miraculously heading our way was suddenly awake and at the train station waiting for us.We were racing around the train station now, looking for an open door and Sasha seemed borderline frantic and really cheerful. As I started to suspect the safety of the situation, Sasha turned to me, "Are you okay?" he asked. "Yes," I replied hesitantly, now even more creeped out.
We had found an unlocked door and were scurrying across the parking lot. Tiffany and I fell back a few steps and I turned to her and tried briefly to explain my suspicions. As we reached the sidewalk, Sasha said, "Wait here," and ran over to one of the taxis parked across the street."HOT." I said, pointing to the couple making out in the middle of the street. Their embrace ended and they started to cross the street, hand in hand. The man turned around and said something to the man behind Tiffany. "English!" she cried out, before realizing they were not talking to us.
Sasha motioned from across the street, "Come on! Come on!" and we crossed the street to the taxi. An average guy in his early twenties got out of the taxi. He was on his cell phone. "Hi." He said, and jogged off down the street. Sasha got in the front seat of the taxi. "Get in!" he said.Tiffany, now also hesitant, wanted to know where we were going. "My house," he said. Tiffany asked him, "Isn't your house 150 km away?" "It's on the way to Erfrt," he said. When we shook our heads, he said, "It's okay! I'll take you to Erfurt! Come on!" "No." I said, and shut the door to the cab. Sasha shrugged his shoulders and the cab drove away, and that's how we almost got kidnapped by a raver in a dirty city called Frankfurt.
