TRAVEL TIPS


1. If you haven’t gotten a passport yet, it’s time. Although the government postponed implementing the new passport requirements for Canada and the Caribbean because of the backlog in processing passport applications, if you need one, apply now. Eventually they will get their act together, and if you are planning to leave the country, you’re going to need it. Don’t wait until the last minute. Our local post office is telling people it takes 12 weeks to get a passport!

2. Save some money if you’re in Florida. Want to snorkel? Get your own snorkeling gear at the mall, or if you will rarely use it, at Walmart. It will work just fine, and you’re not obligated to carry it home. Same goes for beach chairs. Many of the hotels charge for chairs. Pick them up at a beach shop or, again, Walmart.
