Everyone travels at some point whether business or pleasure.  And we can all jump on a computer and watch deals and book online, so why use a travel agent?  Let me tell you why, your time is precious....you have much better things to do with your kids, love of your life or just for yourself so why waste your time when a travel agent can watch the deals and book for you?  You do not pay any extra for using a travel agent, but that is what many think.  What happens is rather than a travel agent making a small commission as there is no salary involved, the tour operator or airline just makes a better profit.  Whether an agent books for you or you book yourself, 99% of the time you will pay the exact same amount but can have someone else look for all the details and take care of everything for you!
So that said, whether you are a busy business mogul that needs several flights a month, looking for a crazy Vegas get away or booking a dream destination wedding...look no further!  I am a travel agency affiliate that is always open.  No office or place of business to rush to right after work or cut in to your Saturday, just a click, text or phone call away!
I can book for all major airlines, hotels, tour operators, cruise lines and and handle specialty travels like singles, seniors, hedonism and also LGBT just to mention a few.
So head on over to www.facebook.com/affordabletravelaffiliatechristinabethlehem and "like" the page to see all of the weekly & daily deals, plus all the travel & packing tips in the Note section.  And when you are ready, send me a message with what you are looking for and I will get right on it while providing the BEST stress free customer service you will find.  Another perk, you will not speak to a different person every time....just me and there is something to be said for that personal connection rather than booking with a stranger every time you take off :)

100 Things That Are Fabulous - Day 5
Enlargement Prints Cheat Sheet
Ever sat there looking at a photo wondering what the largest prints you can order is without loosing print quality?  Wonder no longer, below is the suggested (minimum) file sizes as per Kodak for prints!  I love this cheat sheet, makes it easy to decide on a size and if you are looking for something specific for a wall in your home or office; now you know exactly the minimum resolution you should use!

Some professional services specify lower resolutions for image sizes, so you could get away with smaller image sizes but always remember.....the larger the file the better quality the print!

Kodak, for example, suggests these resolution/file sizes:
For a 4" x 6" print, the image resolution should be 640 x 480 pixels minimum.
For a 5" x 7" print, the image resolution should be 1024 x 768 pixels minimum.
For an 8" x 10" print, the image resolution should be 1536 x 1024 pixels minimum.
For a 16" x 20" print, the image resolution should be 1600 x 1200 pixels minimum.
For a 20" x 30" print, the image resolution should be 1600 x 1200 pixels minimum.
For a Wallet-size print, the image resolution should be 320 x 240 pixels minimum.
