Still the best App for Travel Around.. Trip Advisor

I live and breathe TripAdvisor.com ... I write reviews and check out locations before I go ANYWHERE..

Even in the smallest of towns or countries, someone have posted something... 

A long time ago, I wrote about how to have a great locals trip and save $$ at the same time.....

One of the items is stay at a bed and breakfast and enjoy all the benefits your host offers... 

(I will write more on another day about why this is so important)

Second, ALWAYS check out reviews on trip advisor and contact reviewers and ask questions.... 

Remember what might be a problem for one is a perk for another... 

Last but not least.. when safe, take the locals means of transport... this works great almost anywhere except 

where I live in San Diego.. There is some public transport but your choices are limited....


I decided to remind readers of Trip Advisor as there are so many newer apps out trying to duplicate the best....

Life of a local:Carlsbad, Ca. a summer vacation destination and home.. how a local has fun.....

Carlsbad is known around the world as an international vacation spot... we have nice beaches, some fine dining, Legoland and not a long drive to either Disneyland or Hollywood to the north or San Diego and the Gaslamp down south...As a volunteer at the Carlsbad Visitor Center, I get a chuckle out of the travelers that ask what do we do if the sun is not out?... A fair question... and one that I always am drawn back to..
I will be posting the life of a local in the future..
If you are a local and would like to share your favorite regular Carlsbad outings.. let me know...
thanks,
Kendall
