Real Florida: A Travel Guide for the Passionate Yet Practical (The Budget Romance Traveler series) Review

My wife and I agree with the philosophy of this book...we think it's definitely on the right track. We have grown weary of the gigantic Orlando resorts and their artificial commercialism. We prefer Lake Wales and Bok Tower, for example, places that are both old-fashioned and a sensory pleasure. The same is true of other destinations recommended in Real Florida, such as St. Petersburg and Sanibel Island, although the latter can be a stretch of the budget. The best part is, the people in these unique places are usually sincere and unaffected, and the pace is much more appealing than that of theme park mania. Congratulations to the author for his "budget-romance" concept

The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World with Kids Review

The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World with Kids
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have purchased the Unofficial Guide to Wald Disney world once before when we were planning a trip- we didn't get to go, so I purchased the updated one just last month. Along with my order, I decided to add the Unofficial Guide "with kids" because we have 3 small children. I was very disapointed. This could have been a great accompaniment to the regular Unofficial Guide. For starters, in both my situations, the Unoffical Guide was A+ on info, I loved it. The "with kids" seemed to copy and paste bits from that book. But, the confusing part, is that they didn't copy and paste parts that I found to be most useful in the Unoffical Guide. I am confused about why you would need this book- and it lacks some of his personal insight. My guess is that he did not actually do Disney with children and it seems to show. The upside is that "with kids" does give web sites for outside the world hotels that is missing from the Unofficial Guide. I also did find a couple other tidbits like the section on packing and creating uniforms for your family. There is a lot of info on parenting style that is not found in the regular Unofficial guide- but I am still not sure why it is in this one either. I was so excited to see his insight and sad to say he didn't have any. Bottom line IMO is to skip this book, but don't skip the regular Unofficial guide. It is a 6 star book!!

I used to use Exits The Interstate 95 (ISBN0-96328030-1-7) published back in '97 but unfortunately this publication was not updated. so I grabbed this book. (Used from I-95 New York to Myrtle Beach, SC, for 2008 August Vacation time)My navigator used two books for Gas & food along the I-95. She tends to use my old book more than this book for easier navigation.

Hidden Bahamas Review

Hidden Bahamas
Average Reviews:

Real information on what to do, geared more for the adventurer.Maps nothing special.Brief history coverage. No real prices, only "budget, moderate." Not a complete travel guide, but gives good ideas of what to do on the islands. Use this for some non-touristy sites and to do's, but buy more complete guide for hotels and car rentals, etc. Covers all islands, though not real detailed.
