Building An Authoritative Travel Blog

Authoritative blogs seem all the rage at the moment but what exactly is an " Authoritative Travel Blog ?" Well my understanding of the matter is it is a blog that is not only very informative to the readers but that the information comes from authoritative type people in connection with what they are writing about.

Hopefully my articles below will give an insight on travel and travel related experiences from all over the world from many authoritative writers as they have been there and done that.

Articles will be and are published often and this means current travel experiences and up to date places to visit. If you have also visited these places or wish to comment then please do so remembering this blog is intended to family orientated visitors so please be respectful.

I have seen many fears raised through my article site and feel that any traveller today that, for one reason or another, decides against travel insurance then they are possibly being a little short sighted. We do not want our boats to sink but are happy to carry life rafts. travel insurance is a similar idea. We do not wish to ever claim on it but if things go wrong as they sometimes do it is a benifit to have the insurance.

Have a Great Vacation

By Kermil J. Fogarth

After a year of hard work you deserve a break and vacation to temper the stress and make some memories to share with friends.

If you have a family then they must be involved in the choice of a vacation location. A surprise location can be fun but if there are children involved you must choose a location that has things for them to do so the surprise doesn't become a tragedy. Taking children away from friends, even if only for a week seems to be something that requires an effort so you must offer them new and exciting things to do that makes them want to go. Select things that combine education and pleasure if possible.

Having chosen a location the next thing to consider is the weather. It probably is different there than at home. For example, the mountains tend to be a little cool even in the summer so you should bring along clothing that is appropriate for that kind of weather. On the other hand, if you are going to a tropical or hot location, don't forget to bring an umbrella. In the tropics though it is summer most of the year, it usually rains every day and you don't want heavy rains to ruin your vacation.

Visiting various places around the world can be exciting. If you don't have budget constraints, a trip around the world to see the "seven wonders" is always worth it. A good place to visit is the Pyramids which are filled with mystery from ancient Egyptians, produced by a technology and architecture barely matched today. Walking through these wonders of the world brings out the mystery and contrast between them and the people and splendor of the area.

Vacations don't have to mean travel. You can spend time at home relaxing and catching up on lost sleep if you are already too exhausted to travel. Just having friends over, cooking out, relaxing by the pool with the children can make the hard year just over seem like it never happened.

Going on a vacation to exotic places or staying at home require some planning. This can be as exciting as going on the vacation even in the event you merely wind down at home. Taking a vacation should not be as stressful as what it is supposed to relieve.
