<p>Listen in as we go backstage at Hawaii&#8217;s hottest new show called Cirque Polynesia.  This attraction has a little bit of local Hawaiian music and dance meshed with world class acrobats and illusionists.  It&#8217;s at the Hyatt on Maui and will have you at the edge of your seat as the performers amaze you from start to finish.  They have the top balancer in the world and the famous Wallenda Family with their death-defying high-wire act 40 feet above your head.</p>
<p>We loved the top notch stunts and showmanship of the cast.  No surprise as the producer has been around shows since he was a little boy.  We catch up with Tuffy Nicholas who shares some great stories about his dad who was a ringmaster with Ringling Brothers and his mom who was a bear trainer!</p>
<p>So if you are looking for things to do in Maui, Hawaii, then stop by the Hyatt Regency and see <a href="http://cirquepolynesia.com/">Cirque Polynesia</a>.

<p>On Saturday, for the first time ever, the Sunset Strip was closed down for the <strong>Sunset Strip Music Festival</strong>. The line-up featured <strong>The Donnas, Ozzy Osbourne, Korn, Pepper, and Shiny Toy Guns</strong> (seen in photo).</p>
<p>In addition to the two stages at opposite ends of the Strip, the clubs along the blocks, including the <strong>Key Club, the Roxy, the Cat Club, the Whisky A-Go-Go and the Viper Room</strong>, hosted bands throughout the day. People jumped from club to stage and back all day.</p>
<p>One of the many after parties of the evening was at the host hotel, the <strong>Andaz</strong>. Formerly the, “Riot Hyatt”, the new Andaz played host to many of the rockers, groupies, and fans.

(Be on the look out for journeyPod’s exclusive interview with RH’s Chef Sebastien Archambault.)</p>
<p>journeyPod chatted with <strong>Torry Castellano</strong> the drummer from the popular girl band, The Donnas &#8211;who kicked off the SSMF. Torry gave us some inside scoop on what clubs artists prefer to play on the Sunset Strip and why! We listened to a rare acoustic set from <strong>Shiny Toy Guns</strong> at the Viper Room and then we got some inside scoop from Michel Morauw on what makes the new <strong>Andaz</strong> hotel so unique.

It's waterfront luxury at its best! journeyPod sat down and spoke with Jeannene Glenn, General Manager at The Portofino Hotel &#x38; Yacht Club, and got some inside scoop on this amazing property.

Get away to Redondo Beach, and enjoy the relaxing sounds of Sasha Evans--an up and coming artist from nearby Laguna Beach. You are sure to hear this young talent lady making waves soon! And you heard her first here on journeyPod.com.</itunes:summary>

<p>We hang with <a href="http://shaunwhite.com/">Shaun White</a> at Skate Cayman in the Cayman Islands. Shaun is an Olympic Gold Medalist and has won more X Games than you can count.  Shaun was in town to tear up one of the biggest and baddest skate parks in the world- <a href="http://www.blackpearl.ky/index.php">The Black Pearl</a>.  He also had a chance to teach the kids some tricks as you can see.  Shaun is a jetSetter himself and he shares some of his favorite spots on the island and abroad.</p>
<p>journeyPod are big fans of the Cayman Islands, so it was a nice bonus to checkout the park which offers 52,000 square feet of challenging concrete curves to satify any skater.  If you prefer waves over pavement, then hit their 11 foot wave machine which of course is the highest in the world!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="postImage" src="http://libsyn.com/images/journeypod/thailand_krabi_rayavadee_ligging.jpg" alt="" width="292" height="202" /></p>
<p>journeypod continues to jet-set all over Southern Thailand to explore the more laid-back area of <strong>Krabi</strong>.  A trip to the touristy town of <strong>Ao Nang</strong> brings back memories of Nha Trang, Vietnam. (Visit our archives from June 2008 to listen to our podcast shows from Vietnam)</p>
<p>This small beach-side town is loaded with shopping, restaurants, bars, and clubs.   The best “local” dessert is mango sticky rice, or <strong>kao neaw ma mung.</strong> It’s delicious and fattening! And try the Pad Thai at <strong>Ao Nang Cuisine</strong>.</p>
<p>For a more authentic and local feel, drive about 30 minutes outside of Ao Nang to <strong>Krabi Town</strong>.

		<itunes:summary>journeypod continues to jet-set all over Southern Thailand to explore the more laid-back area of Krabi.  A trip to the touristy town of Ao Nang brings back memories of Nha Trang, Vietnam. (Visit our archives from June 2008 to listen to our podcast shows from Vietnam)

This small beach-side town is loaded with shopping, restaurants, bars, and clubs.   The best “local” dessert is mango sticky rice, or kao neaw ma mung. It’s delicious and fattening! And try the Pad Thai at Ao Nang Cuisine.

For a more authentic and local feel, drive about 30 minutes outside of Ao Nang to Krabi Town. At the main intersection of town you will be greeted by a most unusual landmark--cavemen holding up the traffic signals. If you’re hungry, don’t fret...this is, after all, a small Thai town. Day markets, night markets, roadside stalls, noodle shops - it's all here. And it doesn't require much effort to find.

When you’re ready to check-in to sleep off the jet-lag or the one too many Singha beers, journeyPod recommends Rayavadee. Rayavadee, meaning “Island of the Princess” is fit for a princess! It is a luxurious resort at the tip of the Krabi peninsula.

<p>journeyPod is your guide to luxury travel around the world.  Come along as we explore Thailand. Our first stop is <strong>Phuket</strong>, then we head over to <strong>Krabi </strong>for our next show. On today’s show, we hang on the private island of Naka and explore the rich man’s playground that is Phuket.</p>
<p><strong>Phuket</strong> is indeed touristy.  But journeyPod was able to cut through the commercialism and head off the beaten path while still experiencing some of the local sights. We visited <strong>Chalong Temple</strong>, <strong>The Big Buddha, Phromthep Cape, Rawai Beach</strong> and the <strong>sea gypsies</strong>, and the <strong>Sino-Portuguese architecture on Thalang Street.</strong></p>
<p>We stayed on Naka Island &#8212; home to the new <strong>Six Senses Destination Spa</strong>. If you’re thinking super-spa, you couldn’t be more wrong!  Six Senses Destination Spa is the anti-super spa. This is the place to come if you really want to get away and experience an overall change in wellness. Oh, and your butler will take care of everything for you. It’s luxury and wellness combined! In fact, the <strong>Prince of Dubai </strong>recently stayed there!</p>
<p>Let’s take a listen as Bryan Hoare from Six Senses Destination Spa talks to journeyPod.com and then relax with the soothing sounds of Leerone and her song &#8220;All is Well&#8221;.

<p>Coronado is home to about 26,000 people. It is connected to San Diego by the San Diego-Coronado Bay Bridge, with its distinctive curved span. Coronado is surrounded by water &#8212; the Pacific Ocean, Glorietta and San Diego Bay. Located about 20 minutes from San Diego International Airport, Coronado Bay is a must-see location!  And&#8230;.contrary to popular myth, Coronado Bay is NOT part of San Diego. It is it’s own city.</p>
<p>Swim, surf, sail, fish, bike, skate, golf, or play tennis - Coronado is definitely the place to be if you love the outdoors. The city&#8217;s Central, North and Silver Strand beaches are ideal for whatever water-related activity you can think of &#8212; there&#8217;s even Dog Beach, where your pet can frolic with you.</p>
<p>And if you’re looking for a pet-friendly place to stay while visiting beautiful Coronado Bay, <strong>Loews Coronado Bay Resort &amp; Spa</strong> is just the place! As part of its commitment to the environment, Loews Hotels encourages even its furriest guests to do their part in promoting responsible, sustainable consumption (literally).</p>
<p>journeyPod recently visited Coronado Bay (without our pets) and had the opportunity to experience the the wonderful cuisine <strong>(check out our <a title="Chef Patrick" href="http://journeypod.wordpress.com/category/chef-corner/">Chef’s Corner with Chef Patrick</a>) </strong>and the relaxing Sea Spa.  After our pampering at the spa&#8211;it was like tapas at the spa&#8211;a taste of everything&#8211; we sat and chatted with Spa Director, Krystal Mason, for some inside scoop!</p>

If you have not been following the e-duel between Ashton Kutcher and Ted Turner, you have been missing out on a serious social media marketing frenzy! Ashton Kutcher initiated the battle of Twitter by challenging Mr. Turner and his small network, also known as CNN, to 1 million twitter followers.

journeyPod joined the cause to help the underdog win the challenge by promoting live from the CNN Center (great excuse to get out of the office). We got the chance to chat with some CNN employees to see what these trendy tweetsters think about the Kutcher vs. Turner Twitter-thon!
