GET UP AND TRY AGAIN

A broken-will, a dream most shattered, is this to be your end?
Head down, furrowed brow and so despaired, GET UP and try again!

A spirit once with wings of passion, thoughts of what could have been
It CAN be done, no could about it, PRESS ON, HANG TOUGH my friend.


You’ve failed that’s true, WHO HASN’T?, I can’t count the times I have…
But are they stumbling blocks or stepping stones?, YOU must choose the path.

We all have shared rough goings, and YOU are not alone
Pity party? Cry of your past? Best start stepping on STEPPING STONES!

This should be a kinder poem, coated with sugar and cane.
Tell me what I want to hear, prove you share my pain!

I cannot think of a kinder thing, than these words a friend did in finding
“Quit the crying, stop the whining, and START the grittin’ and grindin’!”

A will most mended, a dream come true, when we CHOOSE to hear this friend…
PRESS ON, HANG TOUGH as so few feel sorry, GET UP and TRY AGAIN!

You cannot change the world, but you can present the
world with one improved person, yourself.

You can go to work on yourself to make yourself into
the kind of person you admire and respect.

You can become a role model and set a standard for others.

You can control and discipline yourself to resist acting or
speaking in a negative way toward anyone for any reason.

You can insist upon always doing things the loving way,
rather than the hurtful way.

By doing these things each day, you can continue on your
journey toward becoming an exceptional human being.

By Brian Tracy

All travelers should familiarize themselves with conditions at their destination that could affect their health (high altitude or pollution, types of medical facilities, required immunizations, availability of required pharmaceuticals.

Insurance, Medicare & Medicaid, Medical Evacuation

If your insurance policy does not cover you abroad, it is a good idea to consider purchasing a short-term policy that does.  There are health insurance policies designed specifically to cover travel.  Many travel agents and private companies offer insurance plans that will cover health care expenses incurred overseas including emergency services such as medical evacuations.

Bringing Medications or Filling Prescriptions Abroad

A traveler going abroad with a preexisting medical problem should carry a letter from the attending physician, describing the medical condition and any prescription medications, including the generic names of prescribed drugs.  Any medications being carried overseas should be left in their original containers and be clearly labeled. Travelers should check with the foreign embassy of the country they are visiting to make sure any required medications are not considered to be illegal narcotics.

If you wear eyeglasses, take an extra pair with you.  Pack medicines and extra eyeglasses in your hand luggage so they will be available in case your checked Coleman luggage is lost.  To be extra secure, pack a backup supply of medicines and an additional pair of eyeglasses in your checked luggage.

If you have allergies, reactions to certain medications, foods, or insect bites, or other unique medical problems, consider wearing a “medical alert” bracelet.  You may also wish to carry a letter from your physician explaining required treatment should you become ill.

  Places to Receive Mail

If you will be abroad for an extended period, you may want to arrange for the delivery of your mail.  Some banks and international credit card companies handle mail for customers at their overseas branches.  In addition, post offices in many countries will hold mail for travelers under their General Delivery services.  U.S. Embassies and Consulates do not handle private mail.  Check with the embassy of your destination country to see if that will be possible there.  A listing of foreign embassies and consulates in the U.S. is available on the Department of State’s website.   Foreign embassy and consulate contact information can also be found on the Country Specific Information for each country.

I hope you find this information useful and helps you in planning your next extended vacation.

Eventually, if your luggage doesn’t arrive, you and the airline will have to face up to an ugly truth - your luggage has disappeared. 

First thing you have to do is put in a claim, itemize the contents and value including the cost of your suitcase.  Don’t exaggerate because if you do it can be very embarrassing if they find your suitcase and what you told them isn’t true.

 It will almost certainly take more than a week for your red luggage set to be deemed lost, and perhaps as much as a month.   It also depends on the airlines how this is handled, whether it was a domestic flight, international flight etc.   If you require more detailed information go to google and type in lost luggage.

Staying at a Hotel? very good info be sure to read

Always take a small magnet on your holiday; they come in handy at the end of it. Thought you all needed to know this…. This is  pretty good info. Never even thought about key cards containing anything other than an access code for the room!  

HOTEL  KEY CARDS
 
Ever wonder what is on your magnetic key card?

Answer:
a.  Customer’s name
B.  Customer’s partial home address
c.  Hotel room number
d.  Check-in date and out dates
e. Customer’s  credit card number and expiration date!

When  you turn them in to the front desk your personal information is there for  any employee to access by simply scanning the card in the hotel scanner..
An  employee can take a hand full of cards home and using a scanning device,  access the information onto a laptop computer and go shopping at your  expense.

Simply  put, hotels do not erase the information on these cards until an employee reissues the card to the next hotel guest. At that time, the new guest’s  information is electronically ‘overwritten’ on the card and the
previous guest’s information is erased in the overwriting  process.

But  until the card is rewritten for the next guest, it usually is kept in a 
drawer at the front desk with YOUR INFORMATION ON IT!

The  bottom line is: Keep the cards, take them home with you, or destroy them.  NEVER leave them behind in the room or room wastebasket, and NEVER turn them  into the front desk when you check out of a room.
They will not charge you  for the card (it’s illegal) and you’ll be
sure you are not leaving a lot of  valuable personal information
on it that could be easily lifted off with any simple scanning device card reader.

For the  same reason, if you arrive at the airport and discover you still have the card key in your pocket, do not toss it in an airport trash basket.
Take it  home and destroy it by cutting it up, especially through the
electronic  information strip!

If you  have a small magnet, pass it across the magnetic strip several times.
Then  try it in the door, it will not work. It erases everything on the  card.
