Pollution and Holidays
When it comes to monitoring beaches for pollution, some countries are better
than others.
Shark tales make bigger headlines, but water pollution is far more common—and
a greater threat to humans than the creature depicted in Jaws ever was. In the
United States, fouled swimming water is responsible for tens of thousands of
beach closings and health advisories every year. Although there is still no
uniform federal protocol for testing water quality at beaches, information on
water cleanliness at most of the nation's public swimming beaches can be found
on the Environmental Protection Agency's site. Outside the United States,
however, travellers are largely left to fend for themselves.
Most pollution at swimming beaches is caused by bacteria associated with
fecal contamination. Some of these bacteria are harmless, but they are often
accompanied by more pernicious pathogens, including E. coli, salmonella,
giardia, and enteroviruses that cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and other
extremely unpleasant symptoms for the millions of swimmers who are exposed to
them every year. Though rare, cholera, hepatitis, and typhoid fever are among
the more serious water-borne maladies found at beaches around the world.

50 ways to save on your holidays
Richard Browning
SCHOOLS are clamping down on parents who take
their children on holiday during term time. At best, to get permission for even
one extra day off at either end of a holiday requires a degree of form filling
and letter writing that wouldn't be out of place in a Soviet police station.
Even then, the final decision rests on the whim of the chairman of governors.
While the difference a day makes to a child's education is unquantifiable, it
can add thousands of pounds to the price of a family holiday. But with this
option of saving money virtually outlawed, how do you stick within the rules
without breaking the bank?
Here are some examples from the article on how to save money on your holiday.
Visit
"Holiday Money" to read the holiday article in full.
13. Save up for the holiday you really want
You don't have to slum it. If you plan ahead and save your money like people did
in the 'olden' days, you can have the holiday you want, where you want and when
you want - even in the school holidays.
14. Take your bike
If you can't travel in the small hours, taking your family by car to the
Continent in the summer can cost a small fortune. So long as you tell the ferry
company in advance, most will allow you to take your bikes for free. This is
especially viable if you're visiting Holland or the Belgian coast, which are
famously rather flat.
15. Go youth hostelling
Did you know that in spite of the name, youth hostels are not the preserve of
the young - and many have family rooms?
Visit Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, and all of the other Walt Disney characters at World Disney World in Florida
-
don't book a hotel room, rent a luxury villa within minutes of the theme parks. Florida villas
for rent near Walt Disney World with private swimming pool.

22. Visit cheap countries
Sounds obvious but take Greece - once a cheap option for a family holiday.
Rampant inflation on the back of its entry to the euro and its new-found
upmarket view of itself as Olympic host and European football champions, it has
become relatively expensive. Italy on the other hand is still delightfully
reasonable.
23. Don't use the Gatwick Express
If you're travelling from central London to Gatwick airport or vice versa you
have a choice or rail operators. The non-stop Gatwick Express, which charges
around £24 one way for an adult, and the two-stop Southern service, which takes
FIVE minutes longer but costs a mere £9. Note: For the Heathrow and Stansted
Express services it's less clear cut as the alternatives, though cheaper, can be
overcrowded and therefore less reliable.

34. Control your holiday spending without doing a thing
Did you know that most credit card providers charge up to 2.75% commission every
time you use the card abroad? A similar sting applies if you use your
debit card abroad. One exception is Nationwide, which charges no such
commission.
35 Email us your tips
There are hundreds more tips for families to cut the cost of their holidays.
Send us yours and, if they're appropriate we'll add them to the list. There's a
prize for the best one.
35. Beware the mobile phone sting
Do you know how much it will cost you to make and receive mobile phone calls
abroad? Check your contract - at up to £1.49 a minute you may want to leave the
phone at home.
36. Don't use the Heathrow Express
The return rail fare for a family of five from London Paddington to Heathrow
airport is more than £130. Using the Underground and the little-known One Day
Family Travel card will set you back around £20.
