Inn at Aberdeen Is Another Haunted B&B!

Inn at Aberdeen When you think about it, what is the best place in the world to be when it is Halloween?  Well – a haunted house, if you can’t be in a haunted house specifically, what about a haunted B&B?  That is my thought and in the last post, we explored on of the top B&B’s that is haunted and now, we are going to tale a look at another one nestled in Valparaiso, IN!

The Inn at Aberdeen is actually the Inn that is featured in the book Haunted Hoosier trails.  There are so many different ghosts tucked away in this one – this one inn, it truly is amazing.  Guests have reported seeing a little girl ghost that has been known to mess with the guest’s stuff.  This little girl ghost also has been known to turn on the fireplace in their rooms.

The Indiana ghost trackers investigated this particular inn and reported that the original owners died with her two children.  Imagine – a haunted inn on Halloween, what could be better?

ProvincetownTo be perfectly honest, if you are a gay individual and you want to travel with your partner, it can be difficult for you to find a place that is going to be friendly for you.  When you are on vacation with your partner, you should be able to feel free and be free – go out and kiss, hold hands and just enjoy being together.  That is not something that you can do everywhere; however we are going to outline some of the top destinations for gay travel.

Fiji Turtle IslandI have to say that one of the best travel places in the world is going to be Fiji – most of all Turtle Island.  While most of the time, whenever people think about Fiji, they think about honeymoons, that is not necessarily all that you need to go there for.  You can actually do a lot of stuff on a family vacation or even if you do just want to go as a couple.
