...well as cruising Indonesian waters, Silolona sails to Malaysia and Burma and accepts private charter. Aside from superb diving, itineraries can include trekking, lavish beach barbecues and strolls through nutmeg plantations. Once you've seen Indonesia this way, climbing aboard a dilapidated interisland ferry can barely be contemplated...

If it isn't bad enough paying the markups for single rooms, or dealing with the sight of couples simpering at each other in restaurants or on the beach, you can also become the target of unwanted sympathy.

...Somebody has to drop the 7,000 pounds of varicolored tissue and motley Mylar. It's done by a crew of about 110 volunteers perched on roofs and setbacks of seven buildings from 43rd to 48th Streets. They work under the guidance of confetti master Treb Heining, the Newport Beach, Calif., balloonatic whose company, Treb, Inc., is the go-to outfit for balloon effusions at the Republican National Conventions. Since 1991 Treb has coordinated the confetti fete for the Times Square Alliance, the business association in charge of the big show...
