Ranch Vacations for Families
Dude ranches started in the late 1800’s when family & friends of the original ranchers wanted to come out west to visit. Lodging was certainly limited, and ranchers opened their homes to vacationers. These “city slickers” would help out around the ranch and experience what life was really like for the cowboys. The tradition continues today, and dude ranchers offer more “guest-friendly” activities. You'll find dude ranches...

High-country holiday: a snowy mountain retreat in Colorado and a festive feast you can make at home
The snow had stopped by the time we arrived at Vista Verde Ranch. Stars sparkled in a sky so cold that the snow squeaked as we stepped out of the car. Faint sounds of laughter came from the ranch house, whose glowing yellow windows reminded me of an electric gingerbread house my family used to light up at Christmas. Beyond the lodge, jagged, snow-cloaked mountains framed a quiet pasture where horses huddled against a fence, their breath leaving plumes of vaporized air. My fiance, Jeremy, and I had wanted to do something different over the holidays, somewhere far from the city. But we didn't really...

The British Seaside: Holidays and Resorts in the Twentieth Century
Resorts in the twentieth century were big business, and resort life, both for residents and visitors, was and is a highly significant part of lived experience for much of the British population, making an important contribution to ]British culture. Even in the 1990s, "at least half of all British holidays were still taken in seaside resorts" (p.3).Yet their sustained analysis on a broader canvas by social and cultural historians has been sadly lacking, leaving the field to the more discursive discussions of leisure sociologists, economists, or those inhabiting the more present-minded disciplines of Tourism...

The Cost of Tourism in the Caribbean
If Last Resorts were to be considered for adoption as a text for a "geography of tourism" class, one might wish for some recognition of benefits accruing from the growth of the tourism industry in Caribbean island societies. But providing such an objective perspective is not Polly Pattullo's purpose. She details the costs, unearths the hidden agendas, exposes the social consequences, and comprehensively identifies the industry's problems. Her hard-hitting style lends purpose to this critical account, and the succinctness of coverage, especially the literature review, makes this a valuable instructional resource, if not a supporting class text...

Christmas skiing holiday in Finland
Finland - and Lapland - beckoned. What's it like to live in the dark for part of the year; how can such great skiers emerge, and what's Christmas like in the dark? The best connection from Salt Lake City was Delta and I could check ski gear right through to Helsinki. Baggage not needed in the city could be checked at the International terminal. I stayed at Hotel Helka; it had quaint, tiny rooms but a very central location. It was an easy walk to shops and that great, deliciously pungent Kynsilaukka restaurant and just around the corner from a McDonald's...

All in the family - Franklyn D. Resort, Runaway Bay, Jamaica
Have you ever been away on vacation and run out of money? I have. It happened when my husband and I were on a week's vacation with our three daughters at a beautiful Caribbean resort. The place was great, the beach was great, the people were great. The only problem was that although continental breakfast was included in our travel package, dinner was not, so each evening we had to fend for ourselves. When we spent close to $100 the first night to feed five and pay for cabs to and from the restaurant, we knew we were in trouble. The little cash we had brought held strong only about three or four days. We got through the week by spending most of one day trying to find an American Express office we could cash a check and by lucking upon a local festival that served $5...
