Adventures With Aviator – Key West Trip with The Aviators — “Family Friday” :D

Read This… After last week’s Christmas special video (battle of the sexes!) was so well received, I decided that perhaps it’d be best to keep coming out with Family videos a bit more often… So here’s the first “Family Friday”! Last month we journeyed down to Key West for a wedding… This video is a quick compilation of clips from our travel time… Including August’s first time seeing/ touching the Ocean! The music is something I’ve used before… But love SO much… It’s called “No Place Like Home” and is brought to you by my good South African friend Roland Albertson. If you would, I’d love for you to take a moment and leave him a note on his Facebook fanpage encouraging him to release more songs! He’s EPIC: www.facebook.com Thanks so much for watching guys! I’ll talk to you all soon -Eric -Eric twitter.com facebook.com youtube.com Aviator.Spreadshirt.comAnswers to commonly asked questions…. 1) I film with a Canon 5D MkII and a 35mm F1.4L lens… Usually mounted to an inverse steady cam rig that I’ve custom built for my uses. 2) The music in the intro is Kaspy’s “Irai” — Find more of his music at kaspy.ca 3) Yes, I do reply to messages and comments… It sometimes takes a while, as there are so darn many of you awesome dudes Thanks so much for watching guys… I think you’re friggin’ awesome!

January 2010 – A Hotel of the Waldorf=Astoria Collection!

The Waldorf Astoria Collection is a collection of what the Hilton Worldwide considers to be its premiere, most luxurious and most identifiable hotels and resorts.

In January 2006, Hilton Hotels, Inc, announced it would launch a luxury brand called the The Waldorf Astoria Collection, branded after the famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City, called the most powerful hotel name in the world.[1] Hilton Hotels declared that the new brand will create luxurious business hotels and resorts worldwide, exceeding the chain’s existing luxury brand, Conrad Hotels.[2]

As of April 2007, there were 4 properties — the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix, La Quinta Resort & Spa in La Quinta, California, the Waldorf=Astoria in New York and the Grand Wailea Resort & Spa in Maui, Hawaii. Later in 2007, the Qasr Al Sharq in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia was added to the portfolio. The next property to join the portfolio was the Rome Cavelieri, a rebranding and upgrading of the Cavalieri Hilton in Rome, Italy in early summer 2008. During the fall of 2008, three Florida hotels, located in Boca Raton, Key West and Naples, were also added. In July of 2009, the Dakota Mountain Lodge opened in Park City, Utah. It is the first ski resort to join the portfolio.[3]
