Fantastic Old World City where EVERYTHING is so cheap by USA standards.
A visit to the famous Kyiv Circus was about $7 a ticket and the show was
super. A ticket to the famous Kyiv Opera was also under $10 a ticket.

Destination: France
Best deal found: In Blaye (north of Bordeaux), we found a place
to fill pretty much whatever you were will to carry in (i.e 2-liter
bottle, etc.) with excellent wine for 1.5 euros. Unbelievable, if you
like wine, of course. Jim

Destination:
Normandy, FR
Best deal found: Whew... deals, none really... not with the
current exchange rate. It was brutal on the pocketbook, but a worthwhile
experience for me and my 10 year old son. Pic is from the American GI
cemetery in Normandy. What a moving experience.

Destination: Cozumel, Mexico
Best deal found: Everywhere i went, the locals were wanting 50
dollars for this, 60 dollars for that. Well, with a little bargaining
and sticking to my guns, the wife and I got everything we wanted at
about 25% of the original asking price. Of course, there were lots of
freebies on the Carnival inspiration that we took advantage of. This
picture I sent you was between the Carnival Inspiration and Royal
Caribbean Liberty of the Seas. It is such a breathtaking view of two
great ships, side by side, looking like skyscrapers on the sea.

Destination: Alberta, Canada
Best deal found: This is Lake Louise 30 minutes from Banff,
Alberta. Canadian dollar is about par now, but the real deal is
food/hotel values. If you think this place is beautiful, go to Lake
Moraine (just next door) and watch your socks go up and down.

Destination: St. Augustine, FL
Best deal found: This was at Fort Matanzas National Park outside
of Saint Augustine. No fee to enter the park and my daughter loved
climbing in the trees.

Destination: London, England
Best deal found: Not a lot considering the exchange rate was $2
per GBP!

Submitted by: Mary K.
Destination: London to board the QE2
Best deal found: We were off for a cruise aboard the nostalgic
QE2. The airfare from Atlanta thru the cruiseline was $99. Great deal!
What was better was the $800 in vouchers (each) given when we gave up
our seats on the return flight which had been overbooked. That's a DEAL!
Another plus was the rarely raised Tower Bridge.
