My dream vacation is going to Trinidad and Tobago to experience sea turtles nesting. This has been something that I have wanted to do since the day I came face to face with a green turtle while I was snorkeling in the Caribbean. I have loved seas turtles for some time now and I know that this is something that I would love to do. There are some tour operators and hotels that actually will wake you up if a turtle is nesting or if a nest is hatching. I think that is way too cool to miss. I would share this experience with my husband, children and grandchildren. One of my dreams is to volunteer at the Sea Turtle Conservancy in Florida.

My dream vacation is a trip to Ireland, I have always wanted to tour the country. On the trip I would tour castles and the beautiful country side. The island of Ireland is beautiful, a friend of mine took a trip a couple years ago and the pictures are amazing. Irish tour companies offer many tours including castle, manors and a train trip that goes across the country. I would take the trip with my cousin, we have always wanted to go and research out family heritage.

My dream vacation would be a trip to Hawaii. I think it would be a wonderful trip to take with my husband. There is so much to see and do there. They have so much beauty and cultures on the different islands. I would love to just sit in the beach for a day and enjoy the beautiful ocean. Then after doing that I would love to go on a few tours, the first one would be The Pearl Harbor tour on the island of Oahu and then I would also love to do the Hilo Volcano tour.That is just the first 4 days and then the last 4 days would be sightseeing and one last day at the beach.

One of the best websites to research your destination is the US State Departments website. This site gives valuable information on travel warnings and watches for areas of the world. It also details policies that a country may have when it comes to travel. When it comes to researching the vacation destination,it is always a good practice to call the destination to find out any information you can. Using the internet is good but the information that is given may not always be reliable in itself. The difference between usingthe internet and contacting the destination for information is just that. A website can be manipulated to make the destination look and sound like a four star resort. Going to the source itself is a great way to weed out potential disasters waiting to ruin yourvacation.
