Dog-friendly policy and check-in program at all of its hotels in North America.

Canopy by Hilton is announcing “Paws in the Neighborhood,” a new dog-friendly policy and check-in program at all of its hotels in North America.

Just as their owners will be treated to a local welcome amenity upon check-in, so will the dogs, who will receive a Paws in the Neighborhood Cinch Pack, a Planet Dog Orbee ball, house-made or locally sourced dog treat, a dispenser with pickup bags, as well as a dog’s guide to the neighborhood highlighting parks, vets, groomers, pet supply stores, and dog-friendly restaurants.

Guests rooms (called Just-Right rooms) will also be prepped before arrival to include a dog bed, and food and water bowls. Fleece-line collars and leashes from Planet Dog's best-selling hemp line will be available on loan. To bring the experience home, every Canopy guest will be given a promo code for 20 percent savings every time they shop with Planet Dog.

“We’ve found that in recent years, more people are choosing to travel with their dogs than ever before and why not?” said Gary Steffen, global head of Canopy by Hilton. “Dogs are part of the family and travelers consider their needs as much as their own when choosing a place to stay.”

This is the second Canopy property to open since Hilton announced the brand in 2014 as a “natural extension” of the hotel’s neighborhood. The first Canopy hotel debuted in Reykjavik last year, and Hilton has announced plans for 16 more to open over the next two years, at locations in Rockville, Maryland; Portland, Oregon; Dallas; Ithaca, New York; London; Minneapolis; Oklahoma City; Atlanta; Toronto; San Antonio; West Palm Beach; Charlotte; Baltimore; Columbus, Ohio; and Hangzhou, China.

The costume of Gorenjska, which is one of the traditional regions of Slovenia

The costume of the region of Gorenjska in Slovenia. In English, this region is sometimes called Upper Carniola. Slovenia is the northernmost part of the former Yugoslavia. The capitol is Ljubljana, and this is their flag. The Slovenian language has around 50 dialects, spoken throughout Slovenia, and in neighboring parts of Italy, Austria, and Hungary. On the southern border, the Slovenian language intergrades with the Kaj dialects of Croatia. In fact, the Kaj dialects are closer to Slovene than they are to the Shto dialect of Beograd. The Slovenes calle their nation Slovensko, which is confusing, because the Slovaks also call their nation Slovensko. Be careful of this, I have seen Slovaks online identified as Slovenian because of this. The ...

Hiiumaa Military Museum

The Hiiumaa Military Museum was established in 2007 in the former border guard station of Tahkuna. The museum takes pride in its collection of coastal defense cannons – featuring 180 mm, 130 mm and 100 mm cannon barrels. The outdoor exhibition includes armoured personnel carriers BTR-70, BRDM-2, ZIL-157, GAZ-66 and other vehicles, a reconstruction of the border strip, civil defence shelter, border guard speedboat, sea mines, anti-tank gun, border guard viewing platform, radar and radio masts. The diesel house features a fully equipped diesel generator, as well as fuel tanks and canisters. In the museum's main building, the preserved marine observation radar, in use until 2005, still stands in its original place. The museum has held exhibitions of cannon projectiles and shell casings, helmets, hats and uniforms, communication devices, educational posters, and civil defence equipment. It also has a furnished barracks corner with an iron bunk bed, a Communist dedicati...

Travel in December

Some of the best holiday markets in Europe are found in picturesque Prague, arguably one of the best places in the world to spend Christmas. Over in Scotland, Edinburgh celebrates the season with Hogmanay, a three-day festival of musical performances, public dance, food, and—yes—fireworks. Quebec City, meanwhile, lays on the romance: you’ll find couples riding horse-drawn carriages and ducking into low-lit cafés for hot cocoa. One of Germany’s largest Christmas markets is found in Frankfurt, surprisingly one of this month’s most affordable places to travel. Those interested in saving should also look to Las Vegas, where hotel prices plummet with the oncoming holidays. Hoping to flee the cold weather? A trip to sunny beach getaways like Hawaii’s Big Island, Mexico, or the Bahamas will surely cure any winter woe. Better yet, avoid the sand altogether at balmy spots like Siem Reap (where dry season spells clear skies) or Florida’s Everglades, a mecca for wildlife enthusiasts with its...
