Make sure you have plenty of money, food, drinks, and necessities to get you through these delays. They can range from a couple of hours to a few days. If you will be traveling a long distance, you should consider bringing along activities to pass the time, especially if you are traveling with children. Visit Funjet Vacations to build a vacation, including travel, accommodation, and activities. Scott ID2284 - Write your name, postal details, and phone number on a piece of paper. Take a photo of it and make sure that it is always the first photo on your memory stick. You might even want to give a friend's address so that nobody knows you are away from home. If your camera is lost (or taken by an 'honest' thief) you might get your photos back, even if the camera is not returned. A clever camera manufacturer would create a field at the beginning of the stick where the purchaser could add this information, and it would be locked in - making the stick secure. On purchase, a disc would be supplied, which would allow you to program your details using a password to access. This way, only you would be able to update it. I am writing this in the middle of the night, as I have just heard from my daughter, who has been on a month's holiday on her trip of a lifetime, that she lost her camera. All the photos of her holiday are now gone forever. Paul Hooper ID2281 - Eating yogurt before you travel is a great way to help cope with bacterial infestations. However, if you are lactose-intolerant, yogurt is not an option. Try 'probiotics' capsules instead. They are available in most stores that sell vitamins, as well as your health food store. Look for 'acidophilus' on the label. Good preparations will contain various *active* strains of lactobacillus and bifidobacterium longum. These probiotics help your system to fortify its own natural defence against the bacteria found in the water supplies, fresh fruits, uncooked vegetables, etc. of foreign countries. 111 Travel Directory: Bed and Breakfasts and more ... 111 Travel Directory: Bed and Breakfasts and more ... ID1767 - Always carry wet naps in your bags, and tissue paper. A long cord is useful for a clothesline if you need to wash something and hang it overnight to dry. Pam Collyer, Penticton, British Columbia, Canada ID653 - Before you travel, take a photocopy of your passport and leave it with someone you trust. In the event of you losing your passport abroad, you can then get the person to scan and email you a copy. This will make it easier to get travel documents or a replacement passport at the local consulate. Get information and travel tips about Turkey at TurkishTravelBlog.com.
