| Margarita
Island in a nutshell |
| by:
Janelle Myers |
| Well,
you can call me a chicken if you want, but I grew up in Alaska. Sure, we had a
whole lot of shakin' goin' on up there but we didn't have tornados, hurricanes
or electrical storms around Anchorage where I grew up. We also didn't have snakes,
three cheers!!! I never wanted to go to a Caribbean island. I had no desire to
go on a cruise. So what did I do? I got married, left Alaska, and eventually,
we went on a cruise with my brother and visited Venezuela amidst all the Caribbean
island stops. |

| How
to See Margarita |
| by:
Jan Walker |
| What
do you want to see? You can get a customized tour of the island with a couple
of the nicest young people you ever hope to meet. They have a well-kept SUV, with
air conditioning, and they are excellent drivers. If you want to make a big hit
with the drivers, bring them some Dr. Pepper. Can’t buy it on Margarita. |

| Flying
to Margarita |
| by:
Nell Walling |
| One
of the local airlines is Aeropostal. However, lots of other airlines fly to Caracas.
Right now, there is renovation being done at the airport on Margarita. When it
is finished, I am told that there will be direct flights to Margarita from the
US. |

| Let’s
ride the bus |
| by:
Brandee Rochelle |
| There
are bus lines for different areas. For example, if you want to go to Punta de
Piedras (where the ferry that runs between Puerta la Cruz and Margarita docks),
you can get a bus in Porlamar. The Mercedes line is located at the corner of San
Nicolas and Mariño. Walk down Mariño a few more blocks and you can take the Union
Tubores line. |

| Vacational
Rental Property Guide |
| By
Mansi Aggarwal |
| Once
you make up your mind to on a vacation, the place to go, accommodation, your budget
for these and other outlays are the significant questions that race up and down
your mind. Just like there are numerous options to spend your holidays, there
are several means to accommodation. To stay in a hotel and spend large amount
of money is perhaps not everyone’s choice and capability. Many people prefer rental
property to hotel and camp lodging. |

| Cheap
International Plane Tickets |
| by:
Steve Gillman |
| The
best place to buy cheap international plane tickets is online. We've tried travel
agencies and they can't compete with the discount ticket websites. You can search
google ("cheap airfare South America", for example), or go straight to one of
the well-known sites, like Expedia, Travelocity, Cheap Tickets, Hotwire or Priceline. |

| Travelers
with Disabilities: The Untapped Market |
| by:
Craig Kennedy |
|
When most people think about accommodating people with disabilities in their business
they get a scared feeling in their gut and their mind scrambles to search for
that all-important date when the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) went into
effect. It doesn’t have to be that way! When business owners open their eyes and
start to realize that there are literally billions of dollars to be made in the
accessible travel market, I believe we will start to remove the fear associated
with the ADA. |

| Six
Good Reasons To Take A Family Vacation |
| by:
Jolana Klobouk |
| When
I was young, family vacations with my parents consisted of driving for a week
from place to place in a hot stifling car. My parents had the knack of picking
the hottest week of the summer to do so. In spite of that, we still had fun, managed
to find interesting sites to explore and those are the memories that I still have.

| If

outrageous hotel expenses, or to even purchase a timeshare yourself, there are
ways to take advantage of the great deals offered by timeshare owners without
actually becoming one yourself. |
