It is almost a certainty that it is when you are traveling or on vacation that things will go wrong. The annoying thing is that a few bad situations can spoil a whole week or two week vacation. Or worse still, a situation that sees you locking yourself in your hotel room, afraid to go out, or even spending time at the local Police station. Always use common sense if you want to travel safely, whether shopping in a local village or spending time on the beach, do not put yourself in a position where you could either be in danger or taken advantage of.

London is one of the cultural capitals of Europe and has loads of sightseeing and activities for tourists of all ages. There are an innumerable amount of things to see and do in London but here are some “must see” sights that shouldn’t be left out of your travel itinerary.
The British Museum is vast and is so big that seeing everything in one day is near impossible. The Greek and Egyptian exhibits are especially impressive and are considered by some to be the best permanent museum installations of their kind.

My family just came back from a bruising 10-day Elephant Safari. It sounded like the best trip ever, but dreams and reality definitely don’t match!
We had costumes made for us in Bangkok and then all the detail work finished here in Tokyo before we left as usual. Everything was picture perfect and arranged to the last detail as always, except NONE of us where prepared for the ride itself. A nightmare!

People will tell you that to get cheap plane tickets you need to go to this website or that. What many don’t realize, however, is that the web site with the cheapest plane tickets will not always be the same one. One week it will be Hotwire, and the next week it will be Expedia or Travelocity or Priceline.
Also, some web sites will more consistently have the cheap plane tickets of a certain type or destination. One might specialize in finding deals on international flights. Another might have the most last-minute deals. Bottom line? When using the internet, you really have to check a lot of web sites if you want to consistently find the cheapest tickets.

Free drinks. Free shirts. Free buffets. Las Vegas is full of free stuff - you just have to know where to look. It’s estimated that Sin City’s Casinos spend over 3 million dollars a day giving away free stuff.
Maybe you’ve had enough craps or blackjack for the day. And maybe you’ve already spent $175 dollars for a ticket to “O” at the Bellagio. Need some ideas for fun and free things to see or do?
