Making sure your vacation goes according to plan is not difficult to do, but it does need to be planed carefully.

First you need to decide where to go, this year I have decided to go to Holland for my vacation. Once you have decided where you want to go on vacation you can start to plan the things you want to see and do. In Holland I am interested in the Van Gogh museum, the Rembrandt museum and the Casino.

I have always enjoyed casinos, so this is going to be my first chance to go to a casino in Europe, so how can I pass up the chance to play some European Roulette, and I have been practicing at an online casino, OK, I have to admit I have also been “practicing” poker and blackjack, please don’t tell my wife.

After you have figure out where you want to go and what you want to do when you are there you can get a feel for where you want your hotel to be.

There are many different websites that offer the best prices on hotels, so make sure to check several of them before making a final decision. Most of these sites will offer pictures of the hotel facilities and the different rooms.

After looking at the hotels pick the top 3 and do a search on the internet for them. Try to find reviews from people that have stayed there before. The hotels site is always going to tell you how great the hotel is, but if someone were annoyed enough to trash a place or tell you how great it was, then you can be pretty sure they are telling you the truth.

The first hotel I was looking at for my Amsterdam trip said it was close to the center of the city, in a nice area, but reading reviews from former patrons told me the area was filled with drug addicts and homeless, and this is not really what I want to see on my vacation, so I found a much nicer location. It is a little farther from the city center but it is near the museums we want to go to, so by being closer to them we can get up early walk to the museums and spend the rest of the time walking around looking at the shops and attractions inside the city’s center.

Now all that is left is packing the right clothes. Unless you are going to someplace where the weather is always a constant, make sure to pack clothes for both good and bad weather. My trip is in a week and the weather is expected to me mostly sunny and in the 50′s but there is a chance of rain so I will be packing a coat for the rain, ad extra socks just in case.

If you are gong to be in Europe and plan to visit a casino you should know that in Europe casinos are more upscale then in the USA. They will not let you in wearing your shorts a T shirt and sandals, most casinos require men to wear a tie and jacket or a turtleneck.

It is also always helpful to buy a travel guide for where ever you are going. Besides having helpful recommendations for things to see and places to eat, many of them offer discounts for attractions.

Well the only thing left is to go and have a good time, I know I will.

I’m getting a bachelor’s of science in Recreation Parks and Tourism Managment. I want to know how much with the cruise lines start me out in and how fast can I advance? If any cruise line employees can tell me their experience and education attainment, that would be wonderful!

I want to be able to travel every weekend and I don’t have a car. Traveling back and forth using public transportation is about 20 bucks so is there any other way?

My husband’s sister is pregnant, they live in a small city, we moved far from our home. We have big financial problems, I lost my job, my husband works day and night. Suddenly the sister announced she is going to get married because of parents push them it is a shame she is pregnant without marriage. My husband’s parents asked money to help supporting this whole party and everything, moreover we have to travel back home + i can imagine some extra costs for local habits on the wedding. The wedding will be 2 weeks before christmas, we planned to go home for christmas only, and we have to travel 2x now, to be able to see my family too, we have to come back after the wedding for work. They simply did not allow time for us to prepare for anything. I am very angry, that we are now in deep trouble going into debts again and stress, which has been anyway a major problem between us recently. He says it is not a question we have to support them and go to the wedding. I feel completely that we somewhere follow the parents’ orders too by these arrangements. I cannot talk to my husband, and we are in big trouble. How should I make him understand, this is our life and no one should decide over this, not even this stupid wedding. I can understand him somehow he is under pressure but this forced wedding is going on my nerves.
