Vacations

Hi all!
School is out in almost every state now....let the summer adventures begin!
If you need to book a cheap hotel with the kids while on vacation you might want to check out Best Western. If give them the promotion code "SUMMER"
then you can earn a $50 Nickolodean travel card for staying 5 nights between now and September! The card can be used at over 4,100 hotels in over 80
countries and works like cash. Check out www.bestwestern.com/summer or
call 1-800-WESTERN.
A friend of mine travels to Hawaii from California twice a month and I asked him how he can afford all those airfare prices? He said he gets a travel agency IN Hawaii to book his round trip tickets and he saves a ton of money, plus no state tax. Just do a www.google.com search to find a travel agency in Hawaii. I think he said he uses Hawaiin Travel (such a clever name, eh?)
Speaking of travel, one web site I like a lot is www.tripadvisor.com because it's just a bunch of regular folks giving their opinions on hotels, restaurants, and travel locations that you might be considering. They share their experiences so you can get a feel for what a company or place is
REALLY like. I also like www.orbitz.com because you can get an
easy-to-read spreadsheet on prices for hotels, car rentals and airfare.
This is a very reputable company so you can feel pretty safe making reservations there and they're almost always the cheapest.
In San Diego News:
If you have a Lego Land annual pass you can get into "The Wave" waterpark in Vista for FREE from June 11-25!!!
Deana Rosell is looking for someone who would love to take a really nice woman's suit off of her hands. The set is charcoal gray, has never been worn, and includes a jacket, pants and skirt. I think it's a size 14, but I'm not absolutely sure - sorry. If you or someone you know is interested, please call Deana at 918-6929.
Be sure to hit the beach before Red Tide is over. Go at night and you'll see the water glow florescent green! Very cool. Jiggle your hands in the sand and you'll see sparks of green in the sand too!
By the way, did any of you feel that 5.6 earthquake this morning (Sunday)???? Use that as a gentle reminder to get your family's emergency preparedness supplies in order.....
Until next time, have a wonderful day!
