TRAVEL

10 Tip~ How to Buy Oi~counted flight Tieken by: George Alarcon Everyone who travels wants to save as much as possible when flying. Why would you want to pay the regular going cost when you can get flight tickets cheaper? I have provided a few clever ways of saving yourself a ton of money on your next air trip.

1) Book online instead of offline; you'll save money from the paper processing fee.

2) Clear out your cookies. Why? Many travel websites use the cookies to log when you search for a particular route and will quote you higher when you

return to that site to search again.

3) Many airline websites update their airfare shortly after midnight. A little research about the route you are looking will help you get the best airfares before they are sold.

4) Stay less than 30 days. Most airfare tariffs have a month's limitation stay restriction. If you require more time, you will pay a higher priced ticket.

5) If you are traveling with a child under 2 year of age, your child is qualified to travel for free. Buying a separate seat for your child is really expensive.

6) Be ready and open to have different departure and return dates.

Mark "anytime" in the search window.

7) Buy flight tickets during the off-season periods; flight tickets are usually cheaper.

8) Buy flight tickets in advance; you can save a lot.

9) Buy from an air courier service; these are companies that will buy your luggage space in exchange for lower -priced tickets.

10) If you fly a lot join a frequent flyer program; such a program offers long-term discounts. €

ALABAMA

Alabama' ~ beautiful bea(he~ The Alabama Gulf Coast's 32-miles of sugar-white beaches are stretched along a 30,000 acre island on the northern most coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Sand dunes covered in sea oats and brilliant blue waters are the norm on the coast while inland areas feature live oaks and pines.

Freshwater lakes, rivers, bayous and

coves add nearly 400,000 acres of protected water to the area.

Within this picturesque setting, the City of Gulf Shores spans approximately 31 square miles while the City of Orange Beach covers about 13 square miles.

Golfing on the gulf: The Alabama Gulf Coast showcases 207 holes of championship caliber golf at 10 courses, with stunning and challenging courses by some of the leading golf course designers-like Arnold Palmer, Jerry Pate, Earl Stone, Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge.

Arnold Palmer's only Alabama projects are located on the Alabama Gulf Coast. Palmer designed his first "Signature Series" course at Cotton Creek at Craft Farms. A second Palmer-designed course-Cypress Bend at Craft Farms-was added later. Lost Key Golf Club in neighboring Perdido Key, FL is also a Palmer "Signature Series" course.

Different from other golfing destinations, our selection of courses is unparalleled and centrally located.

Designed by golfing legends, these courses are situated near the beach, accommodations, shopping or other attractions.

Golfing on the gulf is a great value, especially in the fall when rates are not peaking and the seasonally mild climate makes golfing a year -round activity. Enjoy lush green courses, situated near the beach, accommodations, shopping or other attractions with a big helping of Southern hospitality.

Explore the great outdoors: Visitors to the Alabama Gulf Coast can enjoy a bounty of outdoor-related activities. Take to the water to earch for native wildlife with a dolphin or nature cruise or charter a boat to catch dinner. Investigate 7,000 acres of preserved coastal ecosystem at the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge and make sure to bring your binoculars when visiting the Alabama Coastal Birding Trail. Enjoy the area's selection of campgrounds and parks

with picnic lunch. Regardless of your preference, satisfy the adventure-seeker in you or reconnect with your family, friends or yourself by returning to nature for an afternoon or longer.

Events not to be missed: November sings with excitement during the Frank Brown International Songwriters' Festival. Held in venues on the island and Perdido Key, songwriters and music lovers make their plans to attend months in advance.

Those with the ambition to and courage to brave the elements can ring in the New Year with a chilly dip in the Gulf of Mexico during the Annual Polar Bear Dip at the Flora-Bama.

The month-long celebration of Mardi Gras attracts families near and far to parades and other festivities along the Gulf Coast. Laissez les bons temp roulet! (Let the good times roll!)

KENTUCKY

Winter Hiking and Wildlife Viewing Opportunitie~ Abound in Kentucky If winter weather brings cabin fever or the winter doldrums, that's the time to get outdoors in Kentucky.

In many ways, winter is the best season for enjoying the wild side in the Bluegrass State, as summer humidity and high-season crowds give way to crisp air and fewer adventurers on the trails. It's a good time to get out of the house, see all there is that is hidden by the trees in the summer and generate some heat of your own with a hike.

Winter's leafless trees reveal stunning Kentucky vistas, whether in the eastern mountains or the western lakes regions. Birds and other wildlife are more easily spotted in winter, providing an extra bonus to hikers who venture out this time of year.

Great spots for winter vistas include Daniel Boone National Forest and Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area in the Appalachian region and Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area In southwestern Kentucky.

• Stay at the Cave's historic entrance • Tour the longest cave system on Earth • Hike, bike, canoe, kayak and horseback ride in 53,000 forested acres

Popular places for winter hiking near Louisville include Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest and Otter Creek Outdoor Recreation Area, whose 24 miles of trails afford impressive views of the Ohio River.

You might also want to try hiking underground, also known as spelunking. It's a popular winter pastime since Kentucky's many caves maintain nearly constant year-round temperatures in the mid-50s. At Mammoth Cave National Park, you can hike both below and above ground in a truly unique natural setting.

Many of Kentucky's 51 state parks feature hiking trails that are great places to get close to nature during winter. Make the excursion a cozy winter weekend at 17 state resort parks that offer lodge accommodations. At resort parks including Carter Caves, Barren River Lake, Pennyrile Forest and Lake Cumberland, you can even settle into cottages with wood-burning fireplaces after a full day on the trails.

Organized hikes are an enjoyable way to share your winter hiking experience with likeminded adventurers. For example, a weekend hiking adventure offered in 2013 at Pine Mountain State Resort

Park encompassed eight miles on three guided hikes in one weekend.

Hikers gazed out across the Cumberland Mountains from Knobby Rock in the midst of the celebrated Blanton Forest; stood on the mountain peak where Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia adjoin; and felt the weight of history in the saddle of the Cumberland Gap Pass. They investigated a Native American camp in a sandstone rockhouse, re-lived the folk history of the legendary Chained Rock and examined a natural arch on the vaulted south slope of Pine Mountain.

Now's the time to start planning and reserving places in organized trips to experience elk, bald eagles, sandhill cranes and many other types of wildlife in their natural winter habitats.

Naturalists at Jenny Wiley State Resort Park and Buckhorn Lake State Resort Park in eastern Kentucky often offer elk-watching tours on many winter weekends through March.

These trips provide a close look at a majestic animal that has made a strong comeback after disappearing from the Kentucky mountains for more than a century. Elk, whose numbers now approach 10,000 after being reintroduced in Kentucky in

1997, have found reclaimed surface mine sites to their liking.

Both parks have previously offered weekend packages that include lodging, some meals and transportation to and from the viewing site. You can get tour dates and make reservations by calling Jenny Wiley at 800-325-0142 or Buckhorn Lake at 800-325-0058.

Elk and another impressive mammal. the bison, also roam freely in the Elk and Bison Prairie, a 700 acre portion of Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area in southwestern Kentucky. Deer, wild turkey and numerous other wildlife species thrive in the prairie, which can be enjoyed via a 3.5 mile loop road.

Bald eagles also are a great attraction during winter in the lakes region of southwestern Kentucky, where their numbers swell to 150 or more as they migrate south from the Great Lakes and southern Canada.

The Kentucky State Parks system has offered Eagle Watch Weekends for more than 40 years.

Four parks - Kentucky Dam Village, Lake Barkley, Kenlake and Dale Hollow - have provided guided eagle tours via boat or van in January and February. Contact these parks to

Sandhill cranes are another transient species making a stop in Kentucky on winter migration to states further south. Adult sandhill cranes may be more than four feet tall with a red forehead, white cheeks and a long pointed bill. Their wingspan extends six to eight feet.

One of the best places to view these birds is Barren River State Resort Park in south central Kentucky.

See these birds on weekend trips in January and February organized by park naturalists. More information on the trips is available by calling 800-325-0057.

Birders who wish to view many less exotic species can pursue this hobby at more than 30 of the 51 state parks throughout Kentucky. So don't sit at home this winter.

FLORIDA

The ~umhine ~tate Offen ~omething for Everyone Known as the "Sunshine State" because of its balmy, sunny weather, Florida has more theme parks, entertainment centers and sport activities than any other part in the country. Its fantasy theme parks and attractions, exciting nightlife and leisurely days on the best beaches in the world make it an ideal place for vacations. Thousands of beautiful lakes and magnificent rivers and its 1,350 miles of coastline make it ideal for boating, sailing, fishing, diving, snorkeling and swimming. For a sportsperson, Florida is a vacation paradise. Its warm summers and mild winters make it possible to enjoy

boating, camping, golfing and water sports.

Florida is great for camping.

Outdoor enthusiasts can choose a variety of setting, from beachfront campground, to RV parks, to primitive camping. The mild climate allows year round camping and outdoor activities. While camping, one can experience white sand beaches, peaceful forest and theme park thrills and at the end of the day, enjoy a breathtaking sunset. Florida has one of the best state park systems in the country with many great places to camp within a stone's throw of the Atlantic Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico.

The beaches are some of the finest in the world and have been rated among the top ten each year in Dr. Beach's America's Best Beach list each year. They are rated among the best for beauty, facilities and ease of access. Families, couples or singles enjoy year round sunshine and soft white sand and clear water. The waters along its beaches are generally warm in comparison to the rest of the country. Beaches are a great way to get out in the sun, to play, to stroll and look for shells or to relax on a beach chair in the warm sunshine while reading a good book

or just enjoying the companionship and the activity all around.

With the many miles of coastline and the hundreds of natural lakes, Florida offers much for boaters. It is ideal for power-boating, sailing, kayaking, water-skiing, wake boarding, wind surfing and canoeing.

Like fishing? You will find bass fishing, inshore saltwater and flats fishing and offshore saltwater fishing if you want to catch the "big ones." You may bring your own boat or charter one.

Common and popular game fish include the sailfish and blue marlin.

Florida is the "golf capital of the world." The year round sun attracts

hundreds of thousands of golfers each year. There are over 1,000 public, private and semiprivate courses in which numerous cheap golf courses are also available. No matter what your golfing ability or budget courses are accessible to suit all needs.

To avoid large crowds and packed attraction, as well as expensive lodging, make plans to visit Florida during the off-season, which is during the months of May through October.

This is also a popular time for families with school-age children. Traveling during the "off seasons" can be rewarding. €
