    Ohh, where can I get info on those. Although we have probably left it way too late to book something like that. We will be there mid October.

    I think I misread your post. What did you mean by vacation rental? Not one if those camper bus things?

    Help with Yosemite...

    Sorry, should have been clearer. That is for 2 nights. Originally we thought we might do the tents at Curry Village, but there's no availability for our nights. I don't mind spending the money if I know it will be worth it. Never thought of a camper, might check out the price on those. Are they...

    Help with Yosemite...

    Hi all. For those that have been to Yosemite, is it worth going if we can only spend 1 full day there? We had planned to drive there from Vegas, spend 2 nights, then a early start to drive to San Fran. We are now starting to doubt the plans we've made. Our only options for accommodation are...

    Where to stay in New York?

    Thanks everyone for your input. I can't believe I didn't know this the first time we went. And to think I recommended the apartment to friends that also stayed there, I would have felt terrible if things didn't work out. I can't believe there are thousands out there, and there's no way they can...

    Where to stay in New York?

    Hi All Have any of you booked through Airbnb or Homeaway without any hassles? We stayed in Times Square back in Sept 2010 in an apartment which was recommended through a friend which was on Homeaway.com. It was fantastic. Paid one nights deposit and the balance when we got there. No hassles...

    Anyone been to Cedar Point???

    Yes, we're planning September so it's only open fri, sat & sun. Have to shuffle our dates around and drive from Chicago. We are then planning to go to New York so would we fly out of Cleveland? We thought a couple of nights at Cedar should cover it.

    Who are you all flying with??

    Thanks for that. Would be great if i could do it like that and not have to do Dubaii twice but unfortunately i can't justify an extra $7000 for the four of us just to do so. Maybe we leave Dubai for another time if we do Europe in a few years. I will think some more. :confused3

    Who are you all flying with??

    Thanks everyone for your input! I did like Air NZ and the baggage allowance was 2 bags each. We flew Delta within the states and found them not too bad, very accommodating when we missed our flight from JFK. For something totally different we are thinking of flying Emirates (i know call me...
