I have mentioned before that I would like to visit Branson Missouri at least once in my lifetime. I recently came across a vacation site that offers Branson vacation packages. For example, they have a Family Package that offers 4 days/3 nights at the Presidential Condo, plus tickets to three great events. The total price [...]

I have one last item on my vacation list to do – car rental. Renting a car has been such a pain. It has become harder and harder to find good vacation deals for rental cars. I don’t need a really large car, but when you add in all the fees, the price is quite [...]

Has anyone ever had their teen travel alone on an airplane? I am planning on having my teenage daughter fly by herself twice this summer (both one way trips). I plan on getting her some travel supplies, such as a travel wallet that will hold her boarding pass, etc. I don’t think that she will [...]

I purchased my airline tickets for my trip out west this summer. We ended up finding the best deal at AirFareWatchdog.com. All you do is sign up at their website and enter in your email address and the airport you want to fly out of. They will also send you deals from any surrounding airports. [...]

That’s right, winter is wearing us down. I long for the warm summer, the beach and vacation. My daughter asked me if we could move to a place that was warmer, and I wish we could! We had friends, who after researching Wilmington NC real estate, decided to up and move. North Carolina is a [...]

We are trying to plan our vacation for Seattle this summer and airfares are outrageous!! I tried to convince my sister that we should look to stay in a Vegas hotel, since flights to Las Vegas are much cheaper, but she won’t have it! I did find two airline sights that have been useful: Sidestep.com. [...]

Every once in a while it is nice to get away from home and have a short vacation. Of course, we don’t always get to go to the Excalibur Las Vegas, but Boston and Washington DC are both within driving distance and make for great short trips. If you want to spend a short time [...]

One of the reasons that we bought our timeshare was that we could travel to various vacation destinations for little money. We knew that we would want to vacation in Florida and now it is like having a vacation home Orlando whenever we want it. Of course, the timeshare availability in Orlando is always good. [...]
