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.

Falkland Islands Are a Unique And Beautiful Place To Take Your Vacation

By Susan Candyce Jaquelyn PhD

Summer is in and the sun is shining with all its glory. Everyone is getting in the vacation mood and so am I. I am planning to take my family out on a vacation that they would remember for a long time. But I am the kind of a person who looks into the various details of a holiday plan before I choose the destination. Questions like how to reach the place and how long I plan to stay must be answered before I proceed any further. Being a frequent traveler, I have explored several locations round the world though South Africa still remains a virgin territory as far as I am concerned. People have admired this country and today it is undoubtedly one of the favorites for holiday makers. This time I plan to visit this verdant land for the first time.

Needless to mention, my trip to South Africa would obviously include a visit to the Falkland Islands about which I have heard so much. Divided into two separate islands " the East Falkland Island and the West Falkland Island, there is a cluster of other smaller islands which add more value to this Island as a holiday destination. The Island seems especially attractive to me, because of its meager population " only 3000! This would give me ample opportunity to spend my leisure days in peace and quietude away from the usual city noise that I am used to back home.

I am a meticulous travel planner and I must have all details pertaining to weather conditions, travel requirements, etc before I move out of the house. I now know that Stanley is a port city is the capital of Falkland Islands, which is again part of UK overseas territory and associated with the EU.

The weather condition of this magnificent island is cool and windy. Chances of snowing loom large but not so during January and February. Being an avid lover of nature, the multitude of bird species that I expect to see in these Islands is going to make my holiday memorable. In fact the startling varieties of marine life and birds have enthralled millions of tourists and continue to draw more to these Islands.

The question still remains how to reach the Falklands Islands safely and in the most convenient way? My research skills have revealed that there are plenty of airlines as well as luxury cruises taking people there. After weighing the various options of getting there, I have selected a flight with Falkland Islands Travel. Of course I do not have to worry about finding a travel agent who can organize the trip for me, as there are plenty of them around. The items needed to visit the Falkland Islands include a visa to enter the Islands, passport and other travel related documents. Now that I have made all the necessary preparations, I am humming that John Denver song: I am leaving on a jet plane, dont know if Ill be back again! Falkland Islands " here we come!
