Ten African Safari Tips That You Must Know Before You Go
A little bit of pre-knowledge can go a long way on an African safari trip. Here are ten indispensable tips that will improve your own safari experience greatly.
1. Take the early morning drives on safari even thought that often means getting up while it's still dark.
You'll be very glad you did because your wildlife sightings will improve. The animals are a lot more active in the early morning and late evening because it is cooler and the nocturnal species are either getting up or going to bed so your chances of spotting them are generally much better.
2. A safari is not only about the big game. Take enjoyment from the surroundings and all the wildlife
you see because if you turn it into a "big five" tick list exercise you might....
Unforgettable Cape Cod Vacations: The National Seashore Gift
Take a captivating trip through the Cape Cod National Seashore with miles of white sandy beaches, trails and hikes to take your breath away, and majestic dunes. Just keep reading and you can visit all those places right now.
The Cape Cod National Seashore is a 4,308-acre park set aside by an act of congress in 1961 to preserve and protect a unique geological area and wild life habitat of New England.
Cape Cod is about 60 miles south of Boston, Massachusetts. It was formed when the last glaciers to visit the region melted about 12,000-years ago leaving a large lake. Because of special features and material surrounding the glacial lake, the water drained out exposing the sediment and deposits left by the glaciers from earlier times.
With the rising sea level and the protection from the battering ocean provided by
Georges Bank gone, nature started to reshape the whole of Cape Cod -- especially the
Atlantic facing National Seashore area....
What to Expect - My First Cruise Experience
Some years ago my wife and I decided to take a cruise. We headed for Southampton to join our cruise ship, weighed down with luggage. (Why do women take twice as much as men?) Not knowing what to expect, we arrived at the terminal whereupon our cases were taken from us and firmly assured that they would be sent to our cabin. We checked in with one of the many assistants, boarded the ship and that would be it.
As this was our first cruise, we had been advised to choose an outside cabin which had
natural light coming through the 2 portholes in our cabin. (See inside or outside).
Once we boarded, we were escorted to our cabin by one of the many cabin stewards. Our
luggage had not yet arrived so we decided to wander around the ship to get our
bearings. This is always well worth doing as this also helps to get a feeling for the
ship and its luxurious surroundings. We had also been advised that we would have to
attend a lifeboat drill just after departure that was mandatory....
How To Tell If It's A Swell Motel
Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of traveling in connection with my writing. The past three weekends alone I’ve driven to Sylva, North Carolina, Louisville, Kentucky, and Destin, Florida. Overall, I’m holding up reasonably well, except for the fact that my rear end is starting to closely resemble the upholstery pattern of my car seats. I’ve also learned that you don’t want to drink a twenty-four ounce Diet Mountain Dew in a plastic bottle just before you drive up to Atlanta. Doing that can give the term, “the Foggy Mountain Two Step,” a whole new meaning.
When you travel a lot it gives you the opportunity to stay in motels. Lots of motels.
And I’m learning very quickly which ones are the good ones and which ones are the ones
you need to avoid like a polecat. Believe me, even in this day in time there are as
many fleabag motels as there are fire ants, and if....

Dominican Republic Extremely High Prices
Dominican Republic Extremely High Prices
Don’t let your travel agent give you the false information that the Dominican Republic is cheap. It is NOT TRUE! The prices are triple US prices for the basic necessities. Add insult to injury 85% of their people are poor!
The problem began when the last president drove the dollar to 56 to 1. Prices skyrocketed.
The elections rolled around and the voters sent President Mejia packing his bags. The new American raised president, Leonel Fernandez took on huge loans with the International Monetary Fund and he raised taxes American style to unbearable levels for their impoverished people.
This immediately plummeted the dollar back down to 28 to 1. After about 6 months the
merchants lowered the prices on some items by approximately 10% and raised the prices
on most items to a comparable price....
