A tribute to my friend, the late budget travel icon Arthur Frommer

  The legendary U.S. travel journalist and entrepreneur Arthur Frommer passed away November 18 at the age of 95. Born in Virginia and with an early boyhood in a small town in Missouri, Arthur was a lawyer who became a pioneering and great travel journalist, and who will be remembered as having helped open the joys of travel to the masses.

    Jetblue got Carol and me all excited with its email about today's sale, but the booking widget on Tripatini found our preferred dates and times (flying Spirit Airlines) for $431 instead of $647. Has JetBlue lost its magic?

    For the best inexpensive way to see Canada, consider a camping road trip. Driving is the best way to see the country and Canada's National Parks are well-maintained, as close as you can be to Canada's wilderness and fairly cheap (less than $30 for a campsite, although some parks will get you on an additional park entrance fee. Fundy National Park is a gem in New Brunswick; we went for a big hike, brought lunch containers, and spent the day by the side of a secluded riverbank we found, and rented kayaks and saw a baby moose feeding in a small lake! A great way to experience Canada.

    If you're looking for inexpensive apartments for short-term stays in major European cities, check out EuropeNetHotels.com - we stayed a week in Budapest at one of their properties and really loved our place.
