Adventures in Good Company: January 2010

Friday, January 29, 2010. Airline baggage fees - should I check or carry on? Southwest airlines has been running a very productive add lately on TV about how they are not charging baggage fees to check luggage. However, since Southwest does not fly everywhere we want to travel, at some point will be faced with either paying the baggage checking fee or carrying on our luggage. Is buying trial-sized portions of everything or repacking what you have at home a big deal or expense? Links to this post. Airline...

Adventures in Good Company: July 2010

Tuesday, July 6, 2010. Wool gloves and mittens. Synthetic gloves, however, are a different issue. They may be able to handle dampness that comes from your hand sweating. But if your gloves get wet because you are hiking in the rain or whitewater rafting and temperatures are cool or cold (and why else would you be wearing gloves? They are worse than useless. Really, bare hands are better. Marian Marbury and Deb Malmon. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Marian Marbury and Deb Malmon.

Adventures in Good Company: travelling with cell phones
http://adventuresingoodcompany.blogspot.com/2010/05/travelling-with-cell-phones.html
Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Travelling with cell phones. Many people opt to leave their cell phones at home when they go on a trip, particularly an international one. I say: don't! I definitely still prefer trips where I am away from electronics and truly "out of touch". But I also bring my cell along. You can always turn it off and stick it in your suitcase! It is good to have, just in case. - Deb. Marian Marbury and Deb Malmon. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Marian Marbury and Deb Malmon.

Adventures in Good Company: April 2010
http://adventuresingoodcompany.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 26, 2010. Plug it in - transformers and adapters. Many of our trips go to international destinations. And we often get asked: will there be a place I can plug in my rechargeable camera battery or recharge a cell phone or plug in a hairdryer? Even if there is an outlet to plug these electronics and appliances into, you will probably need a plug adaptor and a power converter to use them. What does all this mean? Look for the voltage rating on your appliance, if the rating states something sim...

Monday, February 22, 2010. Wool vs. synthetics a "scientific" study. Backpacking Light posted a great article about wool vs. synthetic base-layers (click on title of post to go to the article). It is a bit long, but there is some excellent information in it, including some of the science and real-life technology behind each fabric. The following are their personal conclusions from this series of tests and field testing. Wool feels warmer and less clammy on the skin when damp. Many synthetic garments are ...

Adventures in Good Company: Sea kayaking in Greece, May 2011
http://adventuresingoodcompany.blogspot.com/2010/06/sea-kayaking-in-greece-may-2011.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Sea kayaking in Greece, May 2011. The first time we offered a Greece trip, in 2007, we offered a sea kayaking trip. Not only was it a unique way to travel in Greece, it was a way to combine physical activity, the ease and tranquility of kayaking, exploring the geological features up close, camp on remote beaches, all while visiting small villages and eating in local tavernas in a part of Greece fewer tourists visit. But why is this trip for you? You love kayaking. You want t...
