Hi Everyone! I’m back from a wonderful vacation-trip to London and visit with (first) baby grandson! and family and to Loire, France for castles and sunflowers! (scroll down for 10 tips:))
10 Tips for Smooth Travel Vacations and Fun:
Anticipate having a wonderful time
If something goes wrong or not according to plan, try to see the humor in it and move on.
Once you’re settled in and go exploring, allow yourself to “get lost”. ie: don’t have your nose glued to a map.
Know key phrases in the language.
Take some downtime everyday or a siesta to relax and recharge.
Take extra time for family when you’re visiting…
Stay unconnected to the internet, phone, TV, newspaper for as much and as long as possible.
Bring home meaningful mementos-souvenirs-photos.
Compromise as much as possible with your travel mate(s) – After all,
you came to have a good time and probably have tickets home together…
Enjoy!!!
