by Tess Kirkpatrick

Fairy tale castles, acres of scenic countryside, charming villages and much more await travelers to Germany. From the enchanting sites of Bavaria to the charming wine regions of the Rhine and Mosel, you’ll spend many a happy day exploring during your German vacation.

Bavaria is an absolute must, and Munich is the center of it all. You could easily spend a week exploring the city, but be sure to venture out of town and discover some of the villages and towns that dot the landscape, as well as one of the world’s great castles Neuschwanstein- the inspiration for the Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty castle. The Rhine and Mosel wine regions offer their own selection of castles and unique towns, such as Trier, which was founded in 15 B.C. and beautiful scenic drives.

Forget The Expensive Resorts And Try A Bed And Breakfast Instead!

by Trip Wend

Last spring I went to Miami for a large electronic music festival they have there every year. The first step is usually to look for plane tickets and figure out \”is this doable\” in terms of making it down there from NYC. I never thought that this year I would discover a place better than some high-end resorts!

After you get your flight booked, while youare still putting off paying for your event tickets (which you should get during the presale so you donat end up kicking yourself for having to pay $30 extra), you need to figure out where youare going to stay.

I looked into finding a place fairly close but away from the immediate downtown area. My agent had located a place in Hialeah, and I thought I could walk to it, but when I got there, I found out that I was mistaken. It turned out to be over half an hour from where I needed to be and in a really bad area of town, so I ended up calling for a taxi.

So last year, I started to plan my trip a little earlier (yet somehow, I stilled missed buying my event tickets with the presale discount!). Because I was planning on attending the festival with my girlfriend, whom I didnat want walking through those bad areas of town, I began looking for a hotel while the event was still two months away.
