Let's Go There Soon

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Some new research shows that even the simple act of planning a vacation can boost your happiness and even increase your energy levels.
 
I was reading a recent survey, from researcher Michelle Gielan, showed that 97 percent of respondents reported having a trip planned makes them happier. Seventy-one percent of respondents felt greater levels of energy when they had a trip planned in the next six months.  
 
I feel this research could not be more true. Having a trip on the books builds up your anticipation for that trip, it can give you the opportunity to tune out daily life's stresses for a moment when you think about your upcoming trip. It just gives you something to look forward too. 
 
We have so much to do, explore, and experience in our own backyard and this has just the inspiration to help us plan your next trip. Let’s go there, soon

We decided to fly into Denver, where we would stop at the Rocky Mountain National Park first. Then head to Yellowstone National Park, then to the Grand Tetons National Park and finish the trip back in Denver with a short trip to St. Mary's Glacier trail. It w

Travel Agent Myths: Why Using One is a Good Idea

   Travel Agent Myths: Why Using One is a Good Idea   Most travelers these days have preconceived notions of travel agents and think they can book travel better themselves, or worse – that we’re no longer needed at all. Here are some myths about travel agents, and why you need us more than ever.    Myth #1: Travel Agents charge more to book trips. This is one of the biggest misconceptions. Most travelers don't understand how travel agents get paid, so they tend to avoid using their services. If a travel agent books a cruise for you, the agent is paid a commission; it is a percentage of the price of the cruise you are already paying but by the cruise line. You pay exactly the same for the cruise (and maybe more) if you book on your own. It works the same way with hotel rooms. You are using a travel agent for their expertise in your travel planning. Agents have the knowledge of where to stay, when to go, and how to get there. The only time an agent may charge their clients a fee
