Saab "Move Your Mind Room" opens in Sweden

ICE HOTELICE HOTELLooking for a unique way to chill out this February? Think the Caribbean is so 2007? Book yourself a flight to Jukkasjärvi, Sweden and check out Saab's ice suite in the ICE HOTEL.

The hotel sits a mere 100 miles inside the Arctic Circle where daytime temperatures plummet below 0F on a regular basis. Not a snow bunny? Temperatures inside the hotel rarely fall below 23F...

The ICE HOTEL isn't all about cold though. It's the ICE HOTELICE HOTELplace where the chic and stylish come to see and be seen, a playground for wealthy trendsetters who want to adventure in luxurious style.

The Saab room, which opened yesterday, invites hotel guests to experience the Saab brand, its spirit and core values wholly through ice designs.

"The Saab Move Your Mind Room is designed to be a journey, a flow, a pulse which aims to disrupt and challenge visitor perceptions of what is normal or expected," explains Saab chief designer, Simon Padian. "The installation is designed to create an audiovisual experience that defies the visitor's senses. We hope that the public will find it thought-provoking and feel more engaged with the Saab brand."

Still not convinced it's worth a trip to Lapland? Northern Lights - do you need another reason?

  • On Florida Beaches Guide - Playalinda Beach , kw said "I live in Titusville, 10 miles from Playalinda..and you're taking a big chance going to Playalinda. Been here since '74, and Sheriff's patrol does issue citations randomly. You just never know when. As for Cypress Cove...my wife & I visited for the 1st and last time 5 years ago. It's just a place for men to hit on your wife or girlfriend, and this loser Hadley (who runs the place) supports this type of behavior. Cypress cove sucks!!"

  • On Florida Beaches Guide - Playalinda Beach , Tom Mulhall said "Great article recommending nude beaches for vacations. Nude beaches are illegal in most parts of the US. Why risk going to Playalinda beach when you have the best and only legal nude beach in Florida down in Miami Beach called Haulover Beach. Also why risk going to an illegal nude beach when you have the best nudist resort in Florida called Cypress Cove just minutes outside of Orlando. Finally, everyone knows that Florida averages more rain than any other state in the US in the summer time. Why risk having your vaction rained out when you can go to one of the top 10 best clothing optional resorts in the world according to Trip Advisor called Terra Cotta Inn located in sunny Palm Springs, CA. For more information about nudist resorts and nude beaches located all ove rthe US and Canada go to http://aanr.com"

  • On Florida Beaches Guide - Playalinda Beach , Anonymous said "Imagine, after an exhausting week of the daily facade everyone puts on every morning before we step out our doors, the ability to go to a place where none of that defines the person you are. Where you are not judged by the car you drive, the type of job that you have, or the clothes on your back. Imagine a place where everyone's the same, and you'll imagine what it's like to visit there. Imagine all of this peace and beauty in a naturist surrounding, free of one of the strongest reminders of the world we so dearly need to retreat from: our clothes. Imagine a place like naturistmingle.com where no one is judged by appearance but is accepted only as God himself created him. Imagine an environment where even children can play in complete safety and peace."
