Travel Apps For A Better Vacation

Before the holidays get underway and many head out on their travels to visit family and friends, I thought I would take a minute and post about some of the current Android and I-Phone apps available. Although many of these apps are likely to be old news for seasoned travellers and tech heads, anything that helps the rest of us get a half leg up these days, can’t be that bad of an idea! I suggest trying the free apps first though, before possibly upgrading to the pro version (even though some offer great added features by doing so). Enjoy, hopefully a few prove useful for you! Please feel free to leave a comment as well. Cheers! Robbie Bulger – The Florida Canuck
