Make all necessary reservations for your trip ahead of time. HEALTH and SAFETY.

We devoted one web page to health tips for travelers. There you will find advice on health risks and prevention measures for various diseases, so you can have a safer trip if you plan it properly.

Do not forget to purchase a travel insurance for your trip, it will provide you with a safety blanket if something goes wrong. For travel safety advice, basic foreign country information, current safety issues and warnings visit the official web site of the US government. Europeans can check out safety recommendations issued by the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office Travel. Another great source of advice on travel safety is the Australian Government's Travel Advisory web site.

Plan a visit to your family doctor before your trip to ask his advice and to get an extra supply of regularly taken prescribed medications.

Prepare extra copies of your travel documents and the trip's itinerary, leave them with your relatives or friends so they would know where to look for you if necessary.

Notify by phone or register in person with your homeland embassy or consulate upon arrival.

SECURITY.

Ask your neighbor or relative to pick up your mail and look after your house while you are away. Consult your property insurance agency about their policy on leaving your house abandoned. Some agencies have strict regulations that would not allow to cover possible damages to property if it stays uninhabited for a certain period of time.

If you are asked to deliver a package for a stranger, refuse. Exchange currency only at established and licensed locations, at banks and hotels.

FAMILY TRAVEL.

Traveling children also need to have a valid passport. If it is required, you also have to provide an entry visa to each of your children. Visit EmbassyWorld.com web site for details.

For bottle-feeding babies, bring prepared formula and bottled water. Bring along water or juiceboxes. A plastic food container will suit for storing a half-eaten or an untouched meal, for later. Do not forget wipes for cleaning up dribbles down shirt-fronts and spills. Take plenty of amusements: some toys, books and treats.

To avoid ear pressure problems, have little babies nurse or suck their bottles during airplane takeoffs and landings. Toddlers and kids can suck on a candy or chew gum.

TravelWithYourKids web site offers advice and tips for traveling families: the places to stay, to eat and the things to do.

We wish you a successful and safe trip!

My Rented Vacation - The RV Saga
My wife and I have a tradition of vacationing the month of January at a quaint little area in Florida. It is not on the beach where the high priced restaurants are located and where the crowds gather. We enjoy this quiet little RV park that is on the banks of a fishing lake located in central Florida. Several couples caravan south in our RVs to escape the harsh winter weather which seams to get worse the older we get. It is a time that we can relax after the busy holiday season and we can renew our close relationships with our friends.
