This can be found at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island…just look it up and you will find a lot!  It looks like paradise!

The suite used to be the hotels underwater restaurant.  They revamped it for their 5th anniversary – oh, and guests who book the suite will get a private champagne dinner and breakfast in bed!  The price?   Well….I couldn’t find it but a room that is NOT this suite was $1725 a night…  A girl can always dream!  Take a peek at the site….if it won’t depress you!

September 1st, 2010

You probably wouldn’t believe this story if you hadn’t have seen the above picture.  From Yahoo Sports:

“Over the weekend, a golfer’s routine swing in the rough at the Shady Canyon Golf Course in Irvine, Calif., struck a rock. Not so different from the way you play, right? Only this time, the impact caused a spark, and the spark set off a blaze that eventually covered 25 acres, according to the Steven Buck, General Manager of Shady Canyon Golf Course, and required the efforts of 150 Orange County firefighters, writes the Associated Press.”
