golf Do you have golf vacation suggestions?Question:
Di, my wife and I are looking for a place to travel to that is relaxing but that has things for us to do as well. Any ideas?

Di Patterson:
Yes! You should go on a destination vacation to a Golf Resort. There are Golf Resorts all over the world and they are often cheaper than most hotels once you add up everything you are getting with your stay.

Here are a couple great Golf Resorts:

  1. Callaway Fitting Factory, La Costa CA
  2. Golf Hall of Fame, St. Augustine, FL
  3. Golf Museum, Scottsdale, AZ

And here are discounts on golf fees and equipment:

  1. The GolfCard, for access to more greens for less green ;-)Visit site
  2. Callaway Golf Pre-Owned — Visit site
  3. Callaway Golf New — Visit site

Wraparound Sunglasses, Comfortable Walking Shoes, Lightweight and Easy Packing Clothes, Luggage: wheeled luggage a must! (Guard your backs, necks and knees!), Vitamins and Supplements, RXs and sunscreen; and always take a bathing suit! Rubber-soled sandals for the shower and the beach, Family photo in a lightweight frame, a few travel-worthy snacks: unsalted nuts (travel usually makes us swell, so no salt!), crackers, dried fruit…

…the things that you would need if:

  1. you get stuck in an airport and you have to stay near the gate for an extended time
  2. you get an upset stomach and need to calm it down
  3. your travel plans get “readjusted” and you have to “stave off starvation”
  4. you feel like staying in your stateroom while you get your “sea legs”
  5. or you want to go “adventuring” and need some trail mix!
