Even with all of the turmiol that is going on in our financial lives these past few months. I still think we all have a lot to be thankful for.
Good food, close family and friends, Walt Disney World :).
I hope you and your family have an amazing Thanksgiving, and do not listen to those people when they say "Do not eat to much." I say eat like crazy oday and diet tommorow.
I have to admit that I love my Itouch. I use it all of the time. From keeping appointments, to reminding me to do things. It is great.And it got me thinking, how can you use this amazing device when you travel.
Well here are a few ways you can, if you have any more, please let us all know.
• Watch movies. It is a lot lighter than a portable DVD player and can hold more than one movie at a time. Plus Itunes have an amazing library of movies to buy. And if your tech savy you can burn your own movies onto your Iphone or touch.
• Apps, or applications, these are little mini programs that you can download for either free or a minimal cost from ITunes to help you do everything from finding a nearby restaurant, to a complete city guide like the book we all buy, but in a smaller more compact form.
• GPS. Both the Itouch and the Iphone have the capability uilt right in to show you where you are in the world. And with Google maps app that is installed on every touch and Iphone you should never be lost. I did say Should. Plus check out Google Earth, yes the same amazing application that we have on our destop for browing the world, now in Iphone.Touch form.
• Staying in touch. As always we can use things like AIM or Skype to instant message your friends when you out at sea on a cruise vacation.
• Surfing the web. Nuf Said.
The Iphone and Itouch have limitless possibilities. So go to your local Apple store and play with one. A Touch starts at $229. You will love it, trust me.

OK, this post might be a tease for those of you reading this that do not live near one of the big ports in out country. Sorry.
Weekend cruising is a great way to recharge your batteries, get some rest, and eat some good food. Plus most of the time it is cheaper that what you spend in a weekend anyway.
More and more ports are offering weekend cruises. The big three do it year round, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale and Port Canaveral. But New York, Los Angeles and even San Fransisco, are offering more and more weekend cruises.
Just because a cruise is only three days, two nights does not mean you get less than if you go on 7-day cruise. No way, you still get all of the amazing shows, food and fun that you would on a longer cruise, you just do not have to take off as many days to do it.
And with Christmas coming up you can buy something for that person who has it all, a weekend cruise.
So get your email fingers ready and email me at bonbontravelbellsouth.net, tell me a little about yourself, and together we can dream up a weekend you will not soon forget.
