By Beatrice Thomas

Have you ever planned a trip weeks or maybe months in advance, however when the instance comes to have fun, you fall sick during the journey and have to spend your time solely in the hotel room? Naturally, this is something that no one wants to go through. In this article, I will share with you a few points for keeping yourself healthy at all times during your journeys to keep this awkward scenario from happening!

First, by doing some cycling, aerobics or long walks, one is able to develop the muscles for those long tours. By obtaining information on the weather condition or climate so as to pack the right apparel for the travel and the condition of the drinking water are just some examples one can also work on. By purchasing water refining tablets before going to a place with suspect water origins, one is able to avoid acquiring any unwellness from the water.

If one is taking medicinal drug, it is best to carry enough stock for the trip & must also ascertain if the medicine one is carrying is permitted in the place where one is going to avert any problems with customs.

It is best to have a right meal before going on a long travel. Check-ins in airports is long and it will take some time before the airline gives the meals to its passengers.

On a long journey that could take hours by any mode of transportation, it is advisable from time to time to stretch or walk around to circulate the blood in the body. If you suffer from motion sickness while jaunting, it is also better to take the proper medication at least an hour before the trip for the medicinal drug to take effect.

Water is essential and if you are dubious of the tap water available, it is best to order mineral water from the establishment.

By taking these essential precautions, you will be way ahead of most people in keeping yourself sound (and safe!) throughout your journey! - 31363

Ideas For A Romantic Honeymoon

By David Dunn

Honeymoons are more often than not seen as secondary to wedding planning, when, in terms of memories, they are of equal, if not greater, importance. Your honeymoon is a time which you'll never forget as long as you live, so think carefully about honeymoon locations and honeymoon ideas.

First determine what your goals are for the trip and what you can and can't live without. Where do you want to go? Do you want to relax or be active? What is most important to you? Cost, adventure, sightseeing, weather, etc.

Trips to exclusive resorts or islands remain the most popular choice, and for good reason. Such trips mean that you can enjoy quality time with each other whilst relaxing from the hectic timetable of the previous six months and taking in stunning surroundings.

Another option is to take a cruise; they offer an equally quiet, relaxing time whilst also making it possible to visit a host of different locations. Should you prefer a more active honeymoon, give consideration to a mountain resort or an adventure travel trip (such as backpacking or a safari).

Regarding honeymoon locations, consider the following: Argentina, Bali, Bermuda, Caribbean, Fiji, France, French Polynesia, Madagascar, Mauritius, New Zealand, Spain, Thailand.

Whichever kind of location and honeymoon you choose, look to book it at least 6 months in advance so that you'll get the best choice of rooms, and can start planning for your time away. Ask your hotel if they offer a 'romance' or 'honeymoon' package available; romantic extras such as the honeymoon suite, iced champagne and bouquets of flowers will make your time away more memorable still.

Research and book restaurant seats, tickets, tours, and various other activities that require advance reservations, especially should you be traveling in the summer months (bear in mind that different locations will have different peak seasons).

Your overall objective should be to make your honeymoon stand out from any other vacation. In addition to normal vacation items, try taking some fun extras with you, such as romantic music, candles, bubble bath, massage lotion and lingerie. Finally, be sure to take a video camera and pocket camera with you, so you can look back on your special time together forever. - 31363

Tips for a Perfect Family Road Trip

By Gertie Magwood

Getting the family together for a road trip can be quite an exercise. And between heavy traffic, bored or uneasy children and driver fatigue, the process of "getting there" can try anyone's diligence.

But some unhurried planning - for everything from fuel costs to rest stops - will make the experience pleasant rather than frustrating.

AAA offers the following advice for families planning their next road travel.

Before You Go

* Take some time to plan your journey from starting to end. Plan your travel online using www.aaamaps.com for point to point driving directions. If you do not have access to the Internet, contact your nearest local AAA travel office for a custom-made triptik.

* Calculate your gas costs. If you are looking to pinch a penny on fuel, visit www.fuelcostcalculator.com. This website helps motorists calculate the price of fuel for their journey depending on the specific vehicle's make, model and year.

* Give your car a checkup. Have your vehicle checked by a registered auto technician. To find a AAA Approved Auto Fixing facility in your area, visit www.aaa.com.

* Do not forget, timing is everything. As you plan your travel, make time margins for traffic jams, road building and other factors that may cut down your required speed.

On the Road

* Begin fresh. Rather than leaving early after staying up late backpacking clothes and loading your vehicle, get plenty of rest the night before your trip. Driving drowsy is highly dangerous and leads to many collapses and deaths each year.

* Be safe. Make certain that all passengers are secured properly with safety belts and child safety seats as necessary. Choose the proper child safety seats for your children and make sure the seats are properly set up. Up to 90 percent of child safety seats are incorrectly installed.

* Keep your family connected. If you are traveling with children, they'll need something to keep them busy. Be sure to get games and books to help them pass the time. Many vehicles now feature on-board DVD players that can help keep children entertained for hours.

* Stop periodically to stretch your legs. Take a break every two hours or every 100 miles, particularly if you are traveling with children and pets. To deflect driver fatigue, make arrangements to alternate with other drivers. - NU - 31363

Packing Tips Good for Any Groom

By Milton Kenny

Gentlemen, listen well. If you somehow think you can show up to your own honeymoon dressed like a slob, then you're in for a big shock. Somewhere along the way guys mistakenly began to believe that they could just show up to their honeymoon wearing whatever they feel like. Sadly, this is not the case. For many women, the honeymoon is an extension of the wedding itself. What this means for you is that the honeymoon is not your standard issue "run of the mill" trip. Any notion you had of packing a handful of items and darting out the door should be dismissed immediately for your own good. There is advice aplenty for what women should pack for their honeymoon, but men rarely receive any advice on what they should be packing.

This list should serve as a good beginning point to help grooms think through what it is that they will need to bring with them for their honeymoon. As you begin to organize your trip, you will likely think of all sorts of small items that you may need to bring. That is a good thing.

Do Yourself A Favor-Don't Rush: Whatever you do, don't wait until the last second to begin packing. Waiting until the last moment to do your packing will likely cause you to stress out. This could lead to a fight with your bride. Now that is a horrible way of beginning a honeymoon! Think carefully about what will need on your trip a good month in advance, and then pack your bags at least a week in advance.

Dress the Part of a Gentlemen: Nothing makes the ladies swoon like a sharp dressed fellow. Keep this in mind when packing. A few slick outfits for your fine dining experiences is a very good idea. Your bride will also appreciate the effort you have shown as well.

Say No To Creases: The crease is your enemy. The last thing you want is to arrive at your honeymoon destination only to find that all of your clothing is completely creased. After all who feels like ironing after a ten-hour or even a twenty hour travel day? To keep this from happening, pack clothes that don't wrinkle easily. Consider dry-cleaning an outfit. Dry cleaned clothes are more resistant to wrinkles and creases.

Sexy, Sexy: Oh yes, your bride will appreciate a sexy surprise from you. A couple of pair of sexy men's underwear can go a long way.

Pack To Avoid The Pharmacy: Contemplate your pharmacy needs well in advance, and make sure you have condoms and lubricants handy. Running from place to place in an unfamiliar city looking for such sensitive items could prove stressful.

The Carry On Bag-Your Backup Plan: A smart travel knows the value of packing a couple of days of clothing in their carry on bag. This way if your luggage is lost you still have a change of clothing.

Use Your Hotel: Don't feel that you have to lug every toiletry that you might need. Usually hotels have an assortment of the most commonly used items, such as shampoo and soap. - 31363

A Guide for the Perfect Groom's Wedding Toast

By Milton Kenny

Weddings are much, much more than just walking down the aisle and saying "I do." The groom's responsibilities at the wedding are not over after the vows. There is one more wedding tradition that all grooms must endure, the wedding toast. Wedding toast can be tough for grooms that finding public speaking difficult, but there are tips toward creating a great wedding toast. It always helps to display some originality and humor as well as a sense of romance. These three speech elements are, in fact, critical to the overall success of a groom's wedding toast.

One of the first facts you should know about the groom's wedding toast is that the father of the bride's speech usually precedes it. Don't let this intimidate you. Hopefully your father-in-law had a couple of good things to say about you, but if not, carry on soldier.

Above all else, remember to thank people for being at your wedding. If you do this, you truly have won much of the battle. Your groom's speech needs to focus on thanking all of those people who helped make your wedding possible. It's a good idea to write down who those people are as it will help you write your speech. Once you have written down who helped make your wedding possible look and see if there are any funny or heart-warming short stories about those individuals and their contribution to your wedding. Find those stories and you have a big chunk of your speech. Now, just keep in mind that a good groom's speech should probably not exceed five minutes. Why only five minutes? Because there will be many other speeches at your wedding as well.

Of course, try not to leave anyone out of your speech. Wedding mistakes of this nature can often wound ego, but no pressure.

The Guests. Some of your guests likely traveled just to see you get married. Keep this in mind when you are thanking people for their time. Also many of your guests have given you some pretty nice gifts, so why not thank them?

Thank Those Who Lent An Extra Hand. A special thanks to individuals such as your best man or bridesmaids is always a good idea. More than likely were instrumental in making certain that your wedding was a success.

The Bride. Of course, you should thank your bride and tell her how much you love her. Everyone expects it and people will feel horrible if you forget.

The Bride. Only a mad man would not thank their bride. Don't forget to tell her how much you love her.

-Whatever you do, don't try and be someone else. No one wants to see your Steve Martin impression.

-Don't act like someone you are not.

-Keep a cheat sheet on hand and don't be afraid to look at it.

-Make a cheat sheet and keep in on hand.

Nipping Relationship Problems in the Bud

By Diana Has

Great relationships don't just happen. Both partners should work to make it happen. And "work" is the right term, since it's not always easy and smooth sailing. Even when you deeply love each other, there are times when you will be at loggerheads. This is normal. But you can strive to keep a clean slate, so that the disagreements don't pile up and cause deeper problems in your relationship.

The first step is to sit down and talk about common points of disagreements. The usual sources of quarrels would be money, house chores, sex and a lack of communication. When both of the partners have discussed these matters, it would be easy to refer back to what you both have agreed upon when things get heated up. It's really difficult to think in a logical manner when you are angry.

To deal with relationship problems at its very roots, here are a few simple steps:

Communication is key. Talk is definitely not cheap when it comes to strengthening relationships. When partners talk about their thoughts and share what they feel with their partner, it opens up avenues by which you can forge deeper ties. Sometimes, because of the everyday business of life, partners fail to communicate. Schedule appointments by which you can talk with each other. And when you are communicating, set some rules for you to follow. Don't generalize - avoid using the words "you always" or "you never".

Make time for some lovin'. The sexual aspect of your relationship should never be taken for granted, no matter how busy you are. Again, set a date for this - you will find your excitement and anticipation building up as your "date" draws near. Of course, you should also be open to spur-of-the-moment things. The main thing is that you enjoy each other.

Establish money matters. How you spend your money as a couple is an important thing for you to establish in your relationship. This includes how bills are paid, what portion of the money is allocated to savings, what goals you have (big and small purchases).

Organize chore responsibilities. Discuss the different jobs around the house and who is responsible for it. This is to avoid resentment felt by a spouse because he or she feels that he or she is doing more of the housework. Try to be fair about the work distributions. - 31363
