Great Travel Stories and Travel Message Boards    

posted by Kathi @ 5:30 PM
This gets my vote for one of the better travel sites I've come across. ANYwhere you want to go - there are stories about it from people who've been there. And the message boards are great to just read through and search for what you need or ask for advice. BootsnALL Travel bills itself as "The Ultimate Resource for the Independent Traveller." This is a great site if you're thinking about or planning your next travel adventure.
