The Northern Lights in Iceland: Natural enchantment

Winter in Iceland involves limited daylight and extended nights. The benefit of that is ample viewing time to see the Northern Lights, which occur between September and April. While you’re there, you can stay away from the city, in a rural hotel, which might have a wakeup call when the lights appear. PLAY’s latest offer makes getting there easy.

Great activities and meals in south Florida
West Palm Beach post card set.

In south Florida, the credit usually goes to the likes of Miami. While we love the art deco architecture and sexy beaches of The Magic City, there's another destination about an hour's north very much worth your attention. Say hello to West Palm Beach, a town teeming with cultural riches and a fraction of the crowds.

If you want glitz, pop over to Palm Beach. West Palm is a different animal—more charming, more inviting, with more personality. And you still get the beaches, dining, and resorts. If you're going to go, as you should, be sure to put the following spots on your radar.
