Be sure to bring plenty of bottled water when traveling out of the country. Unfortunately drinking water in most countries will cause you to get sick because it is not purified. Do not forget to use bottled water for teeth brushing as well. You can get sick from the tap water this way, as well.

Before starting a car trip with your canine friends, remember to brush them thoroughly. This will get the extra hair off and cut down on the hair that gets left behind in your car. You will also need to remember to back your dog's water and food bowls and other necessary items.

When you are trying to maximize your travel enjoyment, do not underestimate the power of weather. Be sure to always check forecasts for any inclement weather that is headed your way. If the weather is not what you expect, it can completely ruin your carefully planned vacation.

Long travel times can lead to frustration and discomfort, so you should make an effort to stretch and move about once an hour, if not more frequently. If you sit for too long, your muscles will cramp up, and in serious cases, could put you at risk for blood clots.

If you are leaving for your trip from a port city, stay at a hotel with free parking and get there the night before you are to leave. Ask the staff about deals for parking even if you haven't been able to locate any.

Keep all of your luggage identified with your name, home address and phone number on a visible, durable label inside each piece of your luggage when you travel. Even if the luggage is lost and the tags are detached, you still may be able to find it. The more times you see your luggage, the more chances you have in preventing losing your belongings.

When traveling abroad, make sure to have a small amount of local currency on hand when you arrive. Many countries make it hard to exchange currency after hours, which can be a problem. Most large banks are able to sell you foreign currency, so just stop by the bank before heading to the airport and your fun can start when the plane lands.

Pack minimally, and plan your itinerary when you are going on a trip. Traveling light can save a lot of frustration on the road and in the airport.
