We hit up Twitter today to see what the "tweeple" (oh yeah, we just dropped that) were saying about their summer vacations. It seems as if everyone either wants another vacation, "can't wait" for vacation, "just got back" from vacation or is currently on vacation. Still, the vacation tweet that takes the cake is this one:

There's a middle aged guy waiting for a flight at LAX "reviewing" naked photos of his wife and other vacation photography.

Oh god. That actually makes us yearn for the old days of film photography when it was just you and the one-hour photo booth man who could see your nekkid vacation pics. Either way, keep that stuff locked down at the airport and in-flight.

In other vacation tweets:
· Miley Cyrus clothing line at Wal-Mart might be perfect for your vacationing tween.
· You snooze, you lose Twitter followers.
· A new definition of working vacation.
· Dogs need vacations too!

Let’s quit being technical about it; the summer travel season is upon us. If you haven’t booked your trip yet, you might want to think about a vacation rental. For the same price as a hotel, or sometimes less, you can often score more amenities and space. Unfortunately, you usually have to clean up your own mess—no maid service for us slobs.

If this type of accommodation freedom sounds up your alley, we've compiled a few of the best sites to help you pick out your dream home away from home. Just make sure that you register your rental with HomeAway before you send your payment to the owner. It’s totally free, and you’ll be covered up to $5,000—just in case the place is a little less than what was described. ]]> kjb 2009-05-21T10:10:59-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/4/16/42117/3208

Last week we asked you if you're going to Europe this summer, and for the most part the wanderlust of Jaunted readers appears to be recession-proof. Many travelers who are intent on getting away are considering Eastern Europe, which tends to be cheaper and more accessible and just a little bit stranger than the standard London-Paris-Berlin itinerary.

If you're still deciding on an Eastern European destination, it's worth noting that some of our posts on summertime in Greece have included the phrases "oral sex competition" and "out-and-out degeneracy." The country is insane during the summer, whether you're close to Athens or you're gallivanting around the all-Spring-Break-all-the-time islands.]]> Omri 2009-04-16T17:01:41-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/4/13/16442/1062

Summer is pretty much peak tourism season everywhere and Europe is the perennial summer vacation destination for Americans young and old. But when the economy tanks, and the stock market crashes and burns and the unemployment rate keeps going up up up, travel spending takes a hard hit. On the other hand, not being employed means more time to travel and since everyone is cutting their prices these days, hotel deals and airfare sales are plentiful.

But despite these travel deals and even the considerably less-hostile currency exchange rate, we wonder will travelers still hit the cobblestone streets of European cities big and small?]]> juliana 2009-04-13T16:51:56-05:00 Search Jaunted string http://www.jaunted.com/search/
