Butte Things To Do
Butte: The Copper King Mansion The Copper King Mansion by EllenH
The architecture In Butte is amazing, better then I have seen in any other town in Montana. This belonged to one of the original 3 copper kings of Butte, William Clark, the other 2 were Finlan whose son financed the hotel we just stayed at, and Daly, who founded the town I now live in. More money then anything they had. This place is actually now a B&B so you could stay there, they have 4 rooms available for B&B that range in price from $65 to... [read more]
Hamilton Things To Do
Hamilton: Tongariro Crossing Tongariro Crossing by manstone
This is definetely one of the "must do"s when visiting the North Island. However, as it is not exactly off the beaten path, you'll risk up walking in line for most of the trip.

There’s a new baby boy in our midst. And thanks to Sue_Stone for filling us in because we hadn’t heard anything about this exciting event. Sue reports that, “lovely Italian VT'er Fra.da. recently had a baby boy called Lorenzo.”

Thanks Sue; and congratulations Francesca and Lorenzo.



The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings

The great thing about travel may be seeing the world through a different lens, but that doesn't mean the view is always pretty. With this in mind, the travel experts at VirtualTourist.com have come up with a list of "The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings and Monuments." General manager, Giampiero Ambrosi talks about the selections: "Some of these picks have all the charm of a bag of nails while others are just jaw-dropping in their complexity. Love them or hate them, the list is certainly entertaining."



We LOVE hearing from VirtualTourist members and visitors alike. We frequently get notes just letting us know that you're out there and you're enjoying VT. Very often we'll forward the mail around to the rest of the team, to share the love. Drop us a note, we'd love to hear from you.

You can see more community news items from previous days in the Community News Archives Drop us a note at feedback@virtualtourist.com if you'd like your item to be considered.
