It may sound silly, but when you ready to catch some Z’s, blow up the ball and rest it on your tray table. That way, you won’t have to worry about your heading bobbing around or a sore neck as you rest on the beach ball. It can also make a great foot rest after the flight! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-beach-ball/347/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-currency-souveneir-magnet/327/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-currency-souveneir-magnet/327/#comments Wed, 11 Aug 2010 16:38:40 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=327 Have some left over foreign change and don’t plan on using it? Grab some magnetic tape and apply it to the back of the coins and now you have yourself a nice keepsake from your trip or it could be a gift for someone else! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-currency-souveneir-magnet/327/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-belongings-at-security/305/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-belongings-at-security/305/#comments Wed, 30 Jun 2010 16:41:24 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=305 Afraid you’ll leave something behind at airport security? I suggest placing all your valuable items into your shoes! Anything from your cell phone, watch, wallet, or change will never end up left behind again after leaving the x-ray machine. You’ll thank yourself for doing this! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-belongings-at-security/305/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-make-a-pillow/299/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-make-a-pillow/299/#comments Wed, 16 Jun 2010 17:48:09 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=299 Do you often bring a pillow on flights? Does it fall in between the seats all the time? I recommend packing a camping sack with soft and cushy items like hooded sweatshirt and the airline’s blanket they pass out. This will create a big enough make shift pillow that will stay in place and you will no longer wake up with a stiff neck! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-make-a-pillow/299/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-quick-charge/294/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-quick-charge/294/#comments Wed, 02 Jun 2010 17:49:46 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=294 If your phone or camera battery dies while you are exploring a city, stop into a camera or phone shop and ask if you can charge your device for a short while! Some places will ask for a small fee, while some will do it for free. While you are waiting, you can grab a quick bite to eat near the shop and it will be done charging when you come back! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-quick-charge/294/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-start-a-blog/284/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-start-a-blog/284/#comments Wed, 19 May 2010 17:49:01 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=284 Start a blog for your travels! Each time you go on a trip, create a blog (some free examples are tumblr.com or blogger.com) so that your family and friends back home can experience your trip with you and stay up to date, even if they are thousands of miles away! Find an internet café on your trip to start sharring entries and photos! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-start-a-blog/284/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-activity-book/271/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-activity-book/271/#comments Wed, 05 May 2010 17:41:50 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=271 Traveling with kids? Before departing, youcould create a booklet on your computer with pages that your kids can fill out. For example, one page could say “tasty new foods I tried”. Another could be “fun new candy” or “foreign words”. Your kids will have a ball trying to fill out their personal travel survey! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tips-activity-book/271/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-baby-wipes/259/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-baby-wipes/259/#comments Wed, 21 Apr 2010 18:29:42 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=259 Stick a travel-size pack of baby wipes into your purse or carry-on. You can use the wipes to kill germs in public restrooms and phone booths. They even make great on-the-go stain removers! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-baby-wipes/259/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-postcard-journal/248/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-postcard-journal/248/#comments Wed, 07 Apr 2010 16:36:09 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=248 As much as you want to remember all of the details of your vacation, it can be hard to find the time to journal every day. Try picking up postcards from all of your destinations and adding a couple notes about the location and your visit on the back. Not only is it quick and easy, but at the end of the trip you will have a colorful scrapbook of your adventure! ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-postcard-journal/248/feed/ 0 http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-wrinkled-clothes/234/ http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-wrinkled-clothes/234/#comments Wed, 24 Mar 2010 17:21:00 +0000 admin http://www.imagetours.com/news/?p=234 Running late and wrinkled clothes are never a good combination. Instead of waiting for the iron to heat up, you can use a flat iron on a low setting to touch up the seams and cuffs of your clothing. ]]> http://www.imagetours.com/news/europe-travel-tip-wrinkled-clothes/234/feed/ 0
