Here is a fun little story for you. Back when I was a bit of a travel newbie I made a horrible travel mistake. I took a little trip to New York City. Now, most people when planning a trip to New York City probably spend a lot of time looking up things to do like New York tours. Not me. I was going to catch my fave actress at the time doing a tv taping. Or so I thought. See, I did not do any research. Instead, I drove 16 hours just to find out that the show had taped the day before. That was not a fun time. Now we know what things like online travel guides are for. It is called research, and I highly suggest it for any trips you might be taking. For instance, if you are heading to Florida and start looking things up you will learn a little bit about Cypress Gardens Florida. And you might not have known about it if you had just up and decided to go to Florida. So, yeah.
