| Kansas | Alternate type lodging (for us) Posted: Wed August 26, 2009 06:33 PM UTC
We will be crossing Kansas from Denver to Kansas City along Rt 70 during the last week in September 2009. We are not campers and will have been in motels for the previous 4 weeks. Does anyone know of a B&B or Boarding House type of lodging along this route? We've never stayed at either. Any info, suggestions, or leads will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Irv

| Kansas City | March Madness 2009 Posted: Sat April 5, 2008 09:57 PM UTC
Hi all!
A group of mid to late twenties canadians (8 to be exact) try and hit the first round of march madness every year. This is a classic boys only weekend so we are interested in great food, great drinks and plenty to see and do during both the day and night. I am pulling for Kansas City to be our 2009 location. I have done a bit of research on the city and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a few questions. 1) Where would the best area (or even hotel) for us to stay? It would be nice to be in a spot with planty of restaurants (BBQ!), brewpubs and nightlife all relatiely close to the sprint center. 2) Will we need to rent a car for our stay or is getting around town easy enough? 3) I plan on checking out the art museum, jazz museum and possibly the world of fun in addition to the NCAA games. Are there any other attractions or lessor known spots that I simply shouldn't miss? 4) Any suggestions for restaurants, pubs, jazz clubs etc would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot and hopefully see you in 2009! |

| Kansas | Any tips for I 70 between Topeka and Denver? Posted: Wed February 20, 2008 08:29 PM UTC
Although planning is half the fun of travel, I'm very flexible and have already started tweaking our itinerary before we started. I would appreciate any diversions off this pretty long stretch of our 8,000 mile cross country trip. I'll be posting questions in several forums as I savor each segment. Thanks for all your responses so far, and for those I haven't solicited yet.

| Wichita | Gluten free good Posted: Sat July 1, 2006 06:53 AM UTC
I belong to the celiac support group and missed their last dinner since I live in Hutch and can't travel much. I rember before I got celiac sprue how great your food was. I heard from the support group you put a list together. could you plese email it to me? I'm planning on coming there tomorrow to eat, shop and go to the Warren. thanks in advance for your help, it's so hard to find somewhere to eat and feel like a normal person and part of a group.
We admire the time it took to help the group and future undiagnosed celiacs. There also have 3 kinds of gluten free beer available that you could order and probably sell quite a bit of, if you would like their names let me know. thanks, Nacy Crawford. |

| Lawrence | Ole Tapas: Great new Spanish restaurant in Lawrence Posted: Thu March 23, 2006 03:22 PM UTC
I swear that I have no affiliation with this place; I just ate there last night for the first time and the food was so fantastic that I want to spread the word. Ole Tapas is located at 1008 Massachusetts (I think there used to be an Ethiopian place there). For those of you who haven't had tapas before, it's basically small portions like appetizers, so you can order several different things for a meal. My wife and I had six different items, and all of them were absolutely fantastic. It was one of the best meals we've ever had anywhere. Here's their web site: http://www.ole-tapas.com/

| Kansas | From Iowa to Arizona - road trip Posted: Tue February 14, 2006 05:50 AM UTC
Hello-
I am new to this website :-) so it is making me a little nervous. I hope to be at the right place to ask the following question... I could use some help / suggestions with planning of a road trip (about 7 days) from Iowa to Arizona. My parents from Europe will arrive in Iowa sometime in March and plan on renting a car there. They would like to spend one week driving from Des Moines, IA to Phoenix, AZ. During their journey they would like to visit and see as many interesting places as possible - museums, parks, art, history, nature, .... anything interesting and unique to each state. Also, any advice as to where to stay (something more economical), during the 7 days on the road, would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Sarka |

| Kansas | Happy Kansas Day! Posted: Mon January 31, 2005 02:11 PM UTC
Happy (belated) Kansas Day to all you Jayhawks out there!
This particular January 29th was a special one for me in particular because it was the day we picked up the keys for our new apartment. So long, rent and hello, mortgage! Anyway, I have now renewed my subscription to Kansas Magazine and saw that a quarter of its subscribers are like me and live outside of Kansas. That suprised me because I am always noticing letters printed in the magazine from people who were born in Kansas but have moved on (with fond memories of home). That got me wondering...do all the other states have magazines dedicated to them? For instance, is it possible to subscribe to something like Delaware Today or North Dakota Now? Oh, and what do people think of the new Kansas tourism slogan: It's As Big As You Think? I do think it's better than Connecticut: Full of Surprises! |

| Kansas | Kansas Residents Posted: Sat January 22, 2005 04:51 PM UTC
I currently reside in Pennsylvania but unfortunately don't really like the people here all that much,mostly because I have a different personality than northern people now. I'm originally from New Jersey but started exploring other areas as a youth. I suppose a long time ago I could have passed as a Pennsylvania farm boy but it seems the people here are a little harder edged than the people I had encountered in the south. I've also met a few people from Kansas and my take was that they seemed to be quiet and reserved,such as my personality most times.
So,what about Kansas people? |

| Argentine | Traveling in Argentina Posted: Wed July 7, 2004 01:04 PM UTC
Hi, my name is Siv and next year I going to travel to Argentina on my own for the first time. I'v been to Bolivia but with an organisation that arranged everything for me. So I am appealing to anyone who has travelled on their own or with a friend in South America really. I just would like to know whether or not its easier to get out there and book up tour and treks, and how much it's like to cost me for 1 and a half months of travel.
Much appreciated, Silv |

We need to travel here for a chess event. What I can gather is these are really small towns; we're from San Francisco, used to the big city. Are the communities here diverse, friendly?

| Kansas City | Good young family neighborhoods near South KC burbs? Posted: Thu April 22, 2004 11:11 PM UTC
My wife, toddlers, and I are thinking about moving back to Kansas City. I grew up in Overland Park, but haven't lived there for almost 20 years now. Ideally, I'm looking for a good middle class income community with new development, young families, and good schools. My parents live in Leawood, but that's too expensive and seems a better fit for older families or retirees (like them).
Can anybody suggest good growth locations that would be within 30 minutes of Leawood? How is Olathe doing now? I hear that Lee's Summit has had a growth boom, too. We're visiting later this summer to look around so any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks! |
