Your Ultralight Backpacking First Aid Kit

Posted on: 22 January, 2011 - Category: Vacation Tips by:

When you tell a friend or family member you’re going on an overnight hike, one of the first pieces of friendly advice you might hear is, “Be sure to take lots of first aid equipment.” Of course, you need to be ready for emergencies, but an ultralight hiker can do that with just a few ounces of gear. Remind your friends, and yourself, that you’re more likely to be injured driving to the trailhead.

One of the lightest first aid kits available is the little yellow one called a “Pack 1″ that weighs only 1.1 ounces and includes 23 items. This is a good start. It includes a first aid guide with a surprising amount of information, a needle, 10 small bandages, 3 larger bandages, a knuckle bandage, 2 adhesive strips (4″), a gauze pad, an alcohol pad, an antiseptic pad, a small piece of moleskin, and a moist travel towel.

Monetary Conversions of No Concern to Spanish Tourism

Posted on: 10 January, 2010 - Category: Destination, Travel, Vacation Tips by:

Spanish tourism officials anticipate a rise in British tourists in spite of the pound doing poorly against the euro.

Parts of Spain, including the Balearic Islands have been popular tourist destinations for decades. This isn’t expected to falter any time soon.

The ‘Majorca Daily Bulletin’ recently interviewed Ignacia Vasallo of the Turespana Spanish Tourist Board.

Mr. Vasallo is confident in Spain’s allure and believes it will remain a popular tourist destination throughout 2008.

He told reporters ‘Spain is still one of the cheapest eurozone destinations, so the slight increase in a bottle of beer, for example, is not going to turn people away.’ In fact, he predicts a 2 percent rise in tourism for the 2008 season.
