For real Chinese, make it Queens for a day
For many visitors to New York, a trip to Chinatown means heading to Lower Manhattan. But the city has another Chinatown in Flushing, Queens, not as well-known, but just as vibrant. It's a fun place to spend a day exploring, shopping and, above all, eating.
Celebration will move ship from Lauderdale to Palm Beach
Celebration Cruise Line, whose one ship, the 500-cabin Bahamas Celebration, has sailed between Port Everglades and Nassau for the last 10 months, plans to move to the Port of Palm Beach starting March 1, according to a tentative deal between port and company officials.

And there are few shopping districts more pleasurable for strolling than historic San Juan, Puerto Rico, where Fortaleza Street has specialty shops that carry caretas, papier-mché Carnival masks with demonic horns and wild expressions.
