On Vacation
I was recently on holiday in Southeast Asia and discovered firsthand an interesting,
if not exactly novel, phenomenon: Everyone hates Americans. Well, all right, probably
not everyone. But almost everyone I met
As a Canadian, I look and sound a lot like an American, particularly to people who don't live in America. So, throughout most of my trip, I got mistaken for an American.
"You're an American," people would tell me.
"Actually," I would correct whomever I was talking to (usually a deeply tanned European, often in a frighteningly small bathing suit), "I'm Canadian."
Without fail, whatever Belgian, German, Frenchman, or Brit I was speaking with would
then, upon discovering my true nationality, launch into a vitriolic anti-Bush rant.
That surprised me...
Layaway Vacation
It's January, and this year you're going to get out and "carpe annum" - it's time to take that trip you've been dreaming about. Yet your resolution was to manage your money wisely. How can you take the big vacation and not overload your credit cards?
Adventurous Wench has an answer - put it on layaway! Founder Deanna Keahey says "we loved this customer suggestion so much we created this new payment plan. Now you can take the vacation you want, with smaller payments and no credit card interest. We can work out an individual plan for each guest - monthly installments, biweekly, whatever best fits her unique situation."
For instance, if you want to go sailing through the Greek Islands in September,
normally you'd put down a $500 deposit, then have the balance of $2795 due in June...
A mostly-inclusive vacation
Is an all-inclusive vacation really all inclusive?
It’s a question that comes up often when travelers consider whether to book a resort or a cruise. So often, in fact, that it makes me wonder if there really is such a thing as an all-inclusive vacation anymore.
And if so, which one is more inclusive: the cruise or the resort?...

Fiji Hotel Chain Provides an Alternative to Packaged Tourism
According to Cathay Hotels (Fiji) general manager Elain Barrett-Power, "Tubakula Beach Bungalows has long had a policy of minimal interference with the natural marine and coastal environment and does not offer tourist-oriented watersports in the lagoon; this means that the corals will be able to re-generate undisturbed."
At the Saweni Beach Apartment Hotel, north of Nadi Airport, the 12 one-bedroom
apartments have been fully renovated with new beds and modern kitchens. This quiet
property will appeal to mature travelers or couples and families in search of a
peaceful retreat. As at Tubakula, starting prices are in the US$50 range, and there's
a 10 percent discount on stays of a week or more...
