Q: i want to travel somewhere with my mom sometime soon. where should we go? i have no clue where to start. we need some place thats not going to cost alot, but is alot of fun!
A: Find the nearest train station that's interstate.Start looking around on the internet for interesting places to see, or stop at.

Q: is there any specific baggage that they allow and not allow and what should i expect wheni get to the airport?plz help!!
A: Are you referring to the size and weight of your luggage or what you can pack?If you are referring to size and weight, each airline sets its own policy and it may be different for an international flight than it is for a domestic flight. You will have to check the website of the airline that you're flying to determine this. Many airlines now charge for a second checked bag and a few charge for all checked bags. You will also find that information on the airline website.Prohibited items in checked baggage can also be found at the airline website. Prohibited items in carry-on luggage can be found at the TSA website by following this link:http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/index.shtm
Q: In a question, someone answered that if we were able to travel the speed of light, then we could somehow achieve time travel. How would this happen? Also, how could we make time travel possible? Is there some formula to it? I think time travel is a really awesome concept, and I want to learn more about it.
A: Here goes, listen close, as a person starts reaching the speed of light, time starts slowing down for you, then after you are going faster than the speed of time, the clock starts going backward to you.In this world we live in, with the Federal Government we have, no one will ever be able to travel any faster than a chemical rocket can go.With our Federal Government we take ten steps forward, then fifty steps backward.Let me explain, we built rockets to go to the moon, several people went there but today we can not go back to the moon.We built a space station, and now after the next two shuttle flights, we will no longer have a way to send out astronauts to the space station any more, so to get our people up to the space station, we will b paying the Russians to take them there.
Q: I am travelling to Syndey this weeked for a holiday from Brisbane. Should I get travel insurance? I have private health insurance. I don't think it is necessary. I have had travel insurance before but this was for overseas travel.
A: One major thing that your health insurance won't cover though is problems with the airline/flight. For example, one trip from Melbourne - Gold Coast couldn't take off because of flooding on the Gold Coast. All that the airline could offer was a flight 2 days later or a credit. My travel insurance picked up the difference (about $350 extra) to change to a different airline and fly into Brisbane later that day.Other things to consider, if you get sick while you're away or even before you are due to go and you can't fly on the day you have booked, if you don't give 24 hours notice you won't be able to change your date on discounted tickets and you then have to forfeit your ticket and buy a new one for when you are well enough. Travel insurance would cover this.Mind you, there are many people out there who don't take insurance for domestic trips, I guess it comes down to whether you have to money to cover it if something goes wrong....
Q: I am planning a Eurotrip this xmas and wondering if I can use my Refugee Travel Document to travel from one European country to another. Thanks!
A: No you can not travel to Europe with a US refugee travel document. You would have to have a passport. Just having a refugee document won't be enough. No European country will accept this document.

Q: Would an aristocrat travel on a ship? Would a trades man travel by sea? The people I'm speaking of are of the upper class and have aristocratic background. By long distances I mean from country to country. For instance from Bordeaux, France to Rome, Italy. How would they travel? How long would it take?
A: If you were an aristocrat you would travel one day at a time by horse drawn carriage and stay in the best houses of other relatives, you would catch the boat from Barcelona in Spain or from Marseilles across the Mediterranean to Roma. It would take six or seven days.The well off traveled in private, and in well-sprung upholstered carriages. Their favoured vehicle is the post chaise, introduced in France in the early 18th century. Its name accurately suggests a pleasant seat, and an expectation of lively new horses at each post stage during the journey.Read more: http://www.historyworld.net/wrldhis/PlainTextHistories.asp?ParagraphID=kwq#ixzz0a7Ws3pU5
Q: I'm a retired pro photographer and want to travel (with my husband as assistant) and take photos to submit to stock photography companies. Scenics, local cultures, wildlife, etc.How much of my travel expenses can I legally deduct from my USA income tax? Opinions? Experiences?
A: If the principal purpose of your travel is for business then you can deduct those costs, but you must prorate them between the business and personal purposes.If the principal purpose is personal then you can only deduct the portions of lodging and meals (at 50% on the meals) that are directly attributable to the business purpose. No travel and transportation is deductible.If the IRS determines that this is more of a hobby than a true business they will further limit any deductions that are allowable to the income you generated from selling the pictures. In this case the income goes on line 21 of Form 1040 and the allowable expenses go on Schedule A as a Miscellaneous Deduction.
