A Romantic Valentine's Day Interlude
One day each year the world focuses its attention and energies on the greatest human emotion of all: love. And on this day of hearts everyone is acutely aware of love's many facets. We show our love to our sister, brother, child, father, mother, wife, husband, lover, boyfriend, girlfriend, friend, and even persons of acquaintance. But when one dissects the occasion, the one pair of people that most benefit from such shower of affection are those who are truly madly deeply in love. So what's the best gift you can give to your one and only
amore for Valentine's Day?
One of the oft-given advice is to treat him or her to a romantic dinner for two complete with the accessories of love: soft music, candlelight, flowers and chocolates. But why not include a
limousine service tour around town? As everyone knows, limousines are equipped with all the amenities of a five-star hotel. There are the complimentary bottle of champagne, glass flutes, flowers, chocolates, mints, music, videos, soft leather seats, a red carpet welcome, and a uniform-clad chauffeur to drive you wherever you wanted to go. Plus you don't have to worry about keeping your eyes on the road. You and your date can focus on each other for the rest of the evening. Don't think too much about the chauffeur's presence. The staff and drivers of limo companies are trained to be discreet and efficient, much like a well-run English household managed by a family butler.
Another benefit of
booking a limousine is taking advantage of promos and discounted packages for special groups and occasions. Usually these packages include services from first-class spas, salons, restaurants, hotels, and resorts. If you're going to spend a lot of money on a Valentine's date, why not take full satisfaction from the offered extras? Valentine's Day comes once in a year, and a you have a lifetime ahead of you with the one you truly love.

Long Island is, literally, a long island stretching eastward from New York City. The largely suburban area is approximately 115 miles long from Brooklyn and Queens at the western end, to Montauk at the easternmost point. At its widest the island is approximately 20 miles from north to south. While Long Island geographically includes Brooklyn and Queens, politically Long Island in general includes Nassau County and Suffolk County of New York State only.
The primary tourist attractions are the large number of excellent beaches along Long Island Sound to the north and especially along the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The North Fork is also home to many wineries. Other attractions include harbor towns such as Port Jefferson, where a variety of eateries and small businesses thrive in a bohemian atmosphere.
Long Island is essentially a suburban area throughout (except for the Twin Forks region, which is rural) and has few major cities.
There are many ways to get into Long Island: by plane, by train, by boat and by car. National and international airlines land and take-off at four major airports in Long Island. They are MacArthur Airport in Islip (which is a convenient regional airport centrally located on Long Island), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), which is located to the west of the Island (and New York City) in the state of New Jersey.
Long Island Railroad (LIRR) provides service to and from the New York City area to most major towns on the Island. Be aware, however, that the farther from New York City one travels, the more sporadic service becomes.
If you prefer going in by boat, there are ferries available at the north shore of Long Island Sound.
When considering using a car or limousine service, one can take into account the many controlled-access highways that run through New York City from Connecticut and New Jersey. It is advisable, however, to travel on routes that do not cross Manhattan Island (where traffic is perpetually horrendous). From New Jersey, I-278 runs across Staten Island to Brooklyn where major roads (including Route 27 and the LIE) can be reached. From Connecticut, take I-95 South to I-678 and the Throgs Neck Bridge. Once into Queens, nearly every major thoroughfare is encountered while still heading south on 278.
A convenient way to bypass most traffic is to take a car ferry from either Bridgeport, CT to Port Jefferson (on the North Shore in the center of Suffolk County) or New London, CT to Orient Point (on the North Fork).
