Would You Pay a Hotel Resort Fee?
<p>Yesterday I booked a hotel room for an event I'm attending later this year. As I read the "fine print" on the reservation screen, I realized that the hotel would also charge me a "<a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/od/accommodations/qt/ResortFees.htm">resort fee</a>" of $10 per day, which would cover fitness center access, a daily newspaper, two bottles of water, local calls (20 minutes per day), toll-free and credit card calls and internet access.</p> <p>Didn't some of those things used to be free? It doesn't cost the hotel anything to allow me to use my own telephone credit card, so why am I paying for the privilege? And what if I don't use the fitness center or drink the water? Can I ask the hotel to take these charges off my bill?</p> <p>Perhaps. Resort fee charges vary from hotel to hotel; some charge $5, some charge $20 and some don't charge anything at all. Hotel resort fee policies are equally variable. Some hotels will remove the resort fee from your bill and others will not.</p> <p>What do you think? Should hotels assess "mandatory" resort fees or just bundle these charges into your bill? Would you pay a resort fee?

Beat the Winter Blues - Take Your Grandchildren to an Aquarium

You'll be indoors, for one thing, and you can learn about aquatic habitats around the world. Some aquariums have dolphin shows (watch out for the Splash Zone!) and others feature penguins, sharks and other popular marine animals. Behind-the-scenes tours, aquarium sleepovers (some allow you to bring air mattresses) and special events can really add to your aquarium experience. Aquariums appeal to young and old alike at any time of year.</p> <p><b>More About:</b> <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/od/typesoftravelforseniors/tp/VacationsWithGrandchildren.htm">Travel With Grandchildren</a> &#124; <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/od/typesoftravelforseniors/a/Aquariums.htm">Tips for Taking Your Grandchildren to an Aquarium</a> <p>See more <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://collectibles.about.com/od/valuableresources/a/wordlesswednes.htm">About.com Wordless Wednesday</a> photos.</p> <p>Read more about <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://www.wordlesswednesday.com">Wordless Wednesday</a>.</p> <p><i>Photo &#169; Nancy Parode</i></p><p style="background:#f5f3ef;border:1px solid #d5d0bf;clear:both;padding:.5em;"><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/b/2010/02/24/take-your-grandchildren-to-an-aquarium.htm">Beat the Winter Blues - Take Your Grandchildren to an Aquarium</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/">About.com Senior Travel</a> on Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 at 06:30:43.</p><p><a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/b/2010/02/24/take-your-grandchildren-to-an-aquarium.htm">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://seniortravel.about.com/b/2010/02/24/take-your-grandchildren-to-an-aquarium.htm#gB3">Comment</a> | <a href="http://seniortravel.about.com/gi/pages/shareurl.htm?PG=http://seniortravel.about.com/b/2010/02/24/take-your-grandchildren-to-an-aquarium.htm&#038;zItl=Beat the Winter Blues - Take Your Grandchildren to an Aquarium">Email this</a></p>

It was freezing cold outside and mud was everywhere, but I went - and had a fantastic time touring sugar camps, buying way too many beautifully hand-crafted items and eating stacks of syrup-covered pancakes.</p> <p>You can find maple syrup festivals almost anywhere syrup is produced.
