by Steve Woodward

Yes, you can still spend time on the beach enjoying the sand, sea and sun, but today there is so much more for you to do. If you want, you could actually learn to surf or windsurf as it offers some of the best winds and waves around the shoreline of Britain today.

But as well as the water sports there are plenty of interest places to visit and see and great food to try as well. Today some of the countries most well known chefs (Rick Stein being one) has a restaurant now in Cornwall. This provides you with the chance to try some great tasting food from a renowned chef.

Nub’s Nob is widely considered to have the best snow in the Midwest, and the resort has earned the distinction of being a family-friendly mountain. Generations of parents have taken their children to Nub’s Nob for their very first ski run.

Nub’s Nob has a fairly simple mountain layout, with a 1,338 foot elevation and a 427 foot vertical drop. There are 43 trails and eight chair lifts. It’s a resort that appeals to all skill levels, with one of the best skiing and snowboarding schools in the country offering private and group lessons.
