The Radar: Americans Least Adventurous, Floating Hotel, Amtrak's New Fleet

• According to new study results released by Intrepid Travel, Americans are the least adventurous when they travel compared to travelers from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Kiwis topped the list as the biggest thrill seekers. In the States, Californians are most adventurous, while New Englanders were found to be twice as likely than the national average to try deep-fried tarantulas. In other findings, residents of the nation's capital are the least likely to want to sleep under the stars in a desert camp at only 26.5 percent compared to astronomy-loving San Diegans (68.4 percent).

• An Italian architect revealed his futuristic designs for a structure that's part hotel, part cruise ship. Called MORPHotel, like its name, the hotel "morphs" to fit into specific ports of call or to adjust to weather patterns. A flexible spine and interlocking wings allow the hotel to change shape. Check out more photos on the architect's website. [USA Today]

• Seventy new locomotives will hit the rails in February 2013 along Amtrak's Northeast Regional route from Boston to Washington and its Keystone route in Pennsylvania. The cars set to retire are between 20 and 30 years old and have logged an average of 3.5 million miles each. The new fleet, built with renewable energy, will provide cleaner, more efficient travel. Amtrak travel reached a new ridership record of 28.7 million in September, up 5.7 percent over the previous year. [Huffington Post Travel]
