thing 33

ya know what? traveling is expensive!! i think that is the most important thing that travel 2.0 has taught me.
but seriously, the sites i like the best were the blogging sites - it's fun to hear travel stories and get ideas about what i might like to do and where i might like to do it. however, if i were serious about going somewhere i would probably check all of the different travel site categories before i made a final decision. reading a travel blog is informative in terms of inspiring you to actually go somewhere but other review sites are necessary to book rooms/flights and find out how much the trip might actually cost you. the last type of site, the mashups, are helpful too. i liked fastfoodmaps.com - i'm a bit of a wimp and i like being able to anticipate steady meals of food i can stomach.

also, i looked at hotels in winnipeg and did not find a room for under $86 per night - is that normal???
