Sally Smith Clemens from Olympus America joins Craig to discuss the most vital piece of equipment needed on any vacation—of course we are speaking about a digital camera that is small enough to always have with you to capture those moments that you want to record forever. Well Olympus has out done itself once again adopting technology to create their new Olympus Stylus 1030 SW which is a pretty much drop-proof, freeze proof, water proof, dust proof, scratch proof, digital camera that even gives you 10.1 megapixels for great image clarity. If you are in the market for a new pocket size digital camera for your vacation this year, please check out the new Olympus Stylus 1030 SW.

Tim Zahner from the Sonoma County Tourism Bureau joins Craig to discuss the myriad of vacation ideas available in Sonoma County, California and why it makes an ideal family vacation destination.
Sonoma County is known for its award winning wines, luxury inns, tranquil spas, scenic views, and, yes, it is also a great place for an unforgettable fun-filled family vacation that will make you “forget about it all.”
From rustic campgrounds and lodges along the river to inns, resorts and luxurious villas, there are lots of choices bound to fit any family budget.
Flamingo Resort and Spa is a perfect fit for families, and one of the best values in Sonoma County. The resort is among artfully-maintained gardens and a world-class health club and spa. The property houses two Olympic size pools with dining on-site, five tennis courts, a full service spa and two children under 12 stay for free when occupying the same room as parents. The central location near neighboring towns Healdsburg, Sonoma, Calistoga and St. Helena and Sonoma County wineries make this spot an ideal choice.

Rick Bulich from Gypsy Guide by GPS Tours of Canada joins Craig to discuss a new technology that gives you your own professional tour guide in the comfort of your own vehicle.
Gypsy Guide is a tour guide that a visitor can attach to the windshield of the vehicle they are driving. It uses Positioning Satellite technology to AUTOMATICALLY activate commentary to play as they drive. Unlike old technology using tapes or CDs, the device always knows where it is, it turns itself on just as something of interest comes into view. The visitor simply drives and enjoys the stories and advice on what to do from the Gypsy Guide as it plays through the stereo.
The idea was to provide independent travelers with a guided tour experience that they could do on their own schedule, in their own vehicle. All of the content is prepared and presented by real, human tour guides from the area. Gypsy Guide is filled with interesting stories and tales, suggestions on how best to spend your time and make sure that you don’t miss a thing. It can even help visitors find wildlife by pointing out areas where animal activity is more frequent.

Zain Habboo from National Geographics Places of a Lifetime joins Craig to discuss the magic of travel and give you tips on how to have a trip of a lifetime.
With gas prices as high as they are many of us are planning “Staycations”. These are simply vacations that stay relatively close to the proximity of your hometown without overspending on flights or cross-country tanks of gas.
There are a plethora of compelling cities in the United States that may not be far from your hometown. From Boston to Dallas to San Francisco, there is surely a great destination near you waiting to be discovered. If the trek to another city is too far, discover gems in your own city.
In terms of technology, National Geographic has scores of resources and information to get you ready to explore all of these places and more, from walking tours to photo galleries, “must-do’s,” historical facts and sites, to restaurant and hotel recommendations. Get ready to walk the Freedom Trail in Boston, browse the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in Dallas and take in the views of the Golden Gate Bridge from a cable car in San Francisco.
As you plan your staycation, be sure to check out National Geographic’s Places page at http://www3.nationalgeographic.com/places/ for great ideas.
