<title>Five Absolutely Free Summer Activities in Chicago</title>
<link>http://www.trifter.com/USA-&amp;-Canada/Illinois/Five-Absolutely-Free-Summer-Activities-in-Chicago.181139</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<ol>
<li>
<h3>Navy Pier Fireworks<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/trifter/2008/07/24/232665_4.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3>
</li>
<p>Now I'm not into touristy areas or big throngs of people, but Chicago's Navy Pier tourist trap does offer FREE fireworks every Wednesday at 9:30 and Saturday at 10:15.</p>
<p>The best part is that you don't have to go onto Navy Pier to see them, you can watch them from one of the many Chicago beaches or rooftops in the area. I personally recommend Oak St. Beach.</p>
<p>Local Chicago Radio Stations will also synchronize their music to the fireworks. I don't know any</p>
<p>better way to end an evening than hearing Bruce Springsteen's 80's driving music to giant explosions over Lake Michigan.</p>
<li>
<h3>Movies in The Park<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/trifter/2008/07/24/232665_5.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
<ul>
<li>July 15: &amp;ldquo;All About Eve&amp;rdquo; (1950)</li>
<li>July 22: &amp;ldquo;The Odd Couple&amp;rdquo; (1968)</li>
<li>July 29: &amp;ldquo;The Blues Brothers&amp;rdquo; (1980)</li>
<li>Aug. 5: &amp;ldquo;The Day the Earth Stood Still&amp;rdquo; (1951)</li>
<li>Aug. 12: &amp;ldquo;Touch of Evil&amp;rdquo; (1958)</li>
<li>Aug. 19: &amp;ldquo;An Affair to Remember&amp;rdquo; (1957)</li>
<li>Aug. 26: &amp;ldquo;Grease&amp;rdquo; (1978)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<p>Every tuesday in Grant Park the Chicago Park district projects some great movies... FOR FREE! Were not talking about lackluster B films that your friends enjoyed five years ago.</p>
<p>Heres a rundown of the lineup for this summer. All films start when the sun goes down, don't forget a blanket and a cooler of beer!</p>
<p>The 2008 Movies in the Park lineup:</p>
<li>
<h3>Museum Of Contemporary Art<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/trifter/2008/07/24/232665_6.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
</li>
<p>The museum of Contemporary Art isn't chock full of hoity-toity tourist thinking they're cultured (well maybe some.) The MCA is full of abstract displays, interactive art, video projections, audio rooms and a plethora of stimulation. This summer don't miss the Jeff Koons Exhibit, which runs until the 21st of September.</p>
<p>Best thing about the MCA and the reason it made this list, is that it is ABSOLUTELY FREE every Tuesday, all day, all summer long.</p>
<p>So weather you're into a string of christmas lights laying on the ground where the name placard seems to have more thought, or a giant room covered floor to ceiling with Vinyl records, the MCA is for you.</p>
<p>Just Walk east on Chicago Avenue until you see the car that appears to be wrecked into  the building.</p>
<li>
<h3>Visit the Beach</h3>
</li>
<p>The Good Chicago Beach</p>
<p>The beaches around Chicago are great. The best part about them is that they are also free!</p>
<p>Many beaches are extremely overcrowded, such as North Avenue Beach. To find some better spots, and a place to actually lay out, try the north side of Montrose Beach or Foster Beach. These beaches are bigger than North Avenue and generally have about a quarter of the number of people.</p>
<p>Bring a cooler and make some sandwiches, or find some local vendors for a tasty regional treat.</p>
<p>Be careful of the water as well, Lake Michigan is known to have had incidents of high levels of mercury. So look out for three eyed fish and mermaids, but if your the adventurous type paddle on out and enjoy a dip. The lake is warmest in Late July and August.</p>
<li>
<h3>Visit the Baha'i Temple<br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/trifter/2008/07/24/232665_7.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
</li>
<p>The Baha'i Temple is in Cook County, but north of Chicago in the neighboring suburb of Wilmette. Hop on a bike and enjoy a day trip north along Lake Michigan's biking trail then spend some time at the temple.</p>
<p>The Temple and grounds are gorgeous, standing 140 ft tall and made of white concrete and exquisitely adorned. Spend some</p>
<p>time walking around and don't forget a camera.</p>
<p>You can visit the Baha'i Temple any day of the year, until around 7pm.</p>
</ol>
<p>So get out there and enjoy summer, because activities are best when they're free. And as Chicagoans know, nothing beats a Chicago Summer, but you sure pay for it in February with the cold.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trifter.com%2FUSA-%26amp%3B-Canada%2FIllinois%2FFive-Absolutely-Free-Summer-Activities-in-Chicago.181139"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trifter.com%2FUSA-%26amp%3B-Canada%2FIllinois%2FFive-Absolutely-Free-Summer-Activities-in-Chicago.181139" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Tourist Attraction: Mount Cameroon</title>
<link>http://www.trifter.com/Africa/Tourist-Attraction-Mount-Cameroon.59599</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Cameroon also known as "Africa in Miniature" and described by its government as the "melting pot of Africa" is found in the West African sub-region.</p>
 
 <p>It is a country that has been blessed with many tourist attractions, its ministry of tourism was created in the 1970's to encourage investment in this sector. Tourist attractions include amongst others; wildlife parks, highlands, lakes, Mankon Fondom (kingdom) and museums.</p>
 
 <p>Despite government's efforts over the past decade to boost the sector, its growth has been hampered by poor infrastructure and mis-administration. However, this has not deterred foreigners from visiting the country's attractions.	</p>
 
 
<h3>Tourists Climbing Mount Cameroon	  </h3>

 <p>One of the main sites that attracts many foreigners and nationals alike is "Mount Cameroon" also known as "Mount Fako". It is situated in Buea, in the Fako division of the South West province of the country. </p>
 
 <p>It measures 4100 kilometres, the highest point in Central Africa and the second highest point in Africa after Mount Kilamanjaro in Kenya. The mountain rises from the coast through tropical rainforest to a bare summit which is cold, windy and occasionally brushed with snow.</p>
 
 <p>The Mount Cameroon forests are under threat from uncontrolled forest exploitation and encroachment for agricultural production. A population of approximately 350,000 people live within its immediate vicinity, around half of this population live in the urban settlements of Limbe and Buea.</p>
 
 <p>The Bakweri, Bomboko and Balundu people traditionally live on and around the mountain, together with the coastal Bimbia clans; the livelihoods of these people are directly or indirectly supplemented through the harvesting of the forests resources such as timber and non-timber products such as removing bark for medicines, gathering wild vegetables, collecting rattans for making furniture and hunting.</p>
 
 <p>The mountain has erupted six times in the previous century, the latest recorded eruption was in March/ April 1999. During the eruption, the lava flow destroyed farmlands in localities found on the slope of the mountain such as Bakingili, Batoke and Upper farms.</p>
 
 <p>In local folklore the God of the mountain is known as Efasah Moto, it's believed to be composed of two halves, i.e. man and stone; it is also believed that it takes care of people by providing them with water, shelter and food during their journey up and down the mountain. Visitors are allowed to harvest what they can consume while on the mountain but are not allowed to take away anything provided by Efasah Moto. Belief in the God provides an interesting cultural link to ecotourism and sustainable use of resources.</p>
 
 <p>Apart from individuals or groups who go for excursions on the mountain, there is an annual international race that is organised by the Government known as the "Mount Cameroon Race of Hope". The initiative was started in 1995 by the company that brews Guinness.</p>
 
 <p>The race usually brings together hundreds of athletes with scores of them coming from abroad. The starting point of the race is the Molyko Omnisport stadium and participants pass through upper farms, huts 1,2 &amp; 3 before reaching the summit and returning back to the starting point. Participants are divided into male and female categories, they are then further sub-divided into professionals, youths, and amateurs. </p>
 
 <p>The first winner of the male category usually takes just over four hours to complete the race while that for the female category usually takes around 4 hours and 30 minutes. Prize money is in the region of two thousand pounds.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trifter.com%2FAfrica%2FTourist-Attraction-Mount-Cameroon.59599"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trifter.com%2FAfrica%2FTourist-Attraction-Mount-Cameroon.59599" border="0"/></a>]]></description>
