I love Venice! I’m sure you’ll have a great time, Darren, and you do well to leave the laptop at home – everyone needs a break!

I booked my holidays to Portugal and Malaysia/Bali on the internet (plane tickets & hotels). The recession did not have any impact on my decision-making but it did make the trips cheaper!

I’ll be joining all those other recession-hit Brits holidaying closer to home this year. After searching the net for family friendly hotels, I’ve found quite a good deal in Torquay. It’s not exactly cheap, but at least we won’t be hit by the euro or flight costs. Now I just have to pray for sun, otherwise the entertainment budget could cancel out the savings we’ve made…

Hey Darren,

Have a great time! If you’re so inclined, take our walking tour of Venice:

All we do here in the US is work. I’m just hoping to get enough time off to see some California state parks before Schwarzenegger closes them. What a ridiculous situation for an obscenely wealthy to find itself in.
