Since I was little, I loved totravel. Each trip, whether it wasa school trip in fourth grade or
a family trip to North Carolina, ithas been all about visiting newplaces and seeing new things.
Each trip, by plane, land or sea,stays near to my heart when I amthinking of a ‘happy thought.’
Some vacations don’t require aticket; some only need a tank of gasand a little imagination.
Setting a day aside and taking offin your car can be liberating.
There are several places all overthe Space and Treasure Coasts thatyou might have never known before.
This issue of Forever Young willhighlight some of the best day tripsfor you and your family.
We’ve talked to mechanics in eachmarket about what you need to dowith your car before heading to the
open road.And, just in case your sights for
travel are headed a little farther thanthe East Coast, we’ve talked to travelagents on what the best tricks andtips are for traveling on a budget.One of my favorite day trips waswith my family. We drove to Orlandofor the day and instead of going tothe usual theme parks, we went offthe beaten path and on a train.
We had looked in the newspaperand saw a train station had beenremodeled, so the Celebration Sta-tion train took us on a round-triptour of Central Florida.
The impromptu trip still stayshighlighted in my mind. In themorning, we started out in a direc-tion, and by that night we had amemory.
So, take a day, grab a friend andhead out and explore this beautifulstate that people travel from all overthe world to see.

Travel expert shares thoughtsFLORIDA HOTSPOTSWhen it comes to tourist destina-
tions, well, Florida is once againleading the pack.
According to Visit Florida, thestate’s official tourism marketing cor-poration, people just can’t getenough of the Sunshine State.
Florida destinations, resorts,attractions, beaches and sunshinewelcomed 87.3 million visitors lastyear, a more than 4 percent increasefrom 2010, when a sour economyand a Gulf oil spill cut into the action.
With so much attraction pullingvisitors into the state, we thought itonly appropriate to offer a profes-sional opinion on where you mightconsider going. So, if you haven’tbeen to these suggested destinations,consider what you might be missing.
Slather on some sunscreen, fill upthe tank, pack the car and head offfor some home-state adventure.
Christina Dillon, a 16-year travelagent veteran, who helps people plan
their adventures from the Suntreeoffice of Gadabout Travel, said shefeels Florida boasts enough to satisfyany desire.
“Let’s face it, millions of peoplespend their vacation dollars and timegetting to Florida,” Mrs. Dillon said.“We have it all. And, fortunately forus, it’s only a car ride away.”
Mrs. Dillon suggests these hotspots, as her top Florida destina-tions:
• Orlando: The ‘Magic City’ offersunique experiences for every visitorto ensure an unforgettable vacation.Whether that means a week spent attheme parks or a weekend on the golfcourse, an Orlando getaway is what-ever you want it to be. From themeparks, attractions, arts and culture to
shopping, spas, golf, dining, outdooradventures and nightlife. Orlandohas it all.
• Miami Beach: In both daytimeand at nightfall, the South Beach sec-tion of Miami Beach is a major enter-tainment destination with hundredsof nightclubs, restaurants, boutiquesand art-deco hotels. The area is pop-ular with both American and inter-national tourists. Did I mentionstone crabs?
• St. Augustine: The nation’s oldestcity is loaded with attractions thatbring to life the history, adventureand romance of pioneer Florida. Stayin a quaint bed & breakfast or mod-ern hotel. You can visit Castillo deSan Marcos, the oldest masonry fort

Linda Lundstedt loves cruising and iscounting down the days until she’sstrolling the decks of her favorite ship,Royal Caribbean’s Freedom of the Seas,a trip she typically takes two or threetimes a year.
What makes the 52-year-old FloridaTech secretary unusual is that she iswilling and able to travel alone, leavingher husband and family behind.
“I love cruising, and my husbanddoesn’t,” said Mrs. Lundstedt, a WestMelbourne resident. “He’s fine with megoing, and I am fine with him notgoing. It’s really not that unusual. Thereare always quite a few single cruisers onboard, and there are always events andactivities that allow you to meet otherpeople, so you’re not totally alone.
“I’m not saying it’s for everyone, but Idon’t think you shouldn’t go if you likecruising,” she continued. “The bestthing about the cruises is that eventhough I go alone, I feel very safe. Youhave an itinerary and a crew that looksout for you. You have on-board person-nel, who are always near and helpful.To me, it’s a great way to travel.”
Christina Dillon, a travel agent withGadabout Travel in Suntree, booksmany of the trips Mrs. Lundstedt takes,most of which set sail right from PortCanaveral. Nowadays, she said she isbooking more and more single travel-ers.
“I think, at one time, it might havebeen more unusual,” Mrs. Dillon said.“In fact, some ships tend to penalizesingle-cabin travelers. But that’s chang-ing, as well. It could well be that this isthe changing demographics.”
For Mrs. Lundstedt, the concept oftraveling alone is already a success.
“The ship has everything I want,”Mrs. Lundstedt said. “I get to have goodfood, entertainment, and there is alsoadventure along the way. I’ve riddenhorses in Jamaica, have zip-linedthrough the jungle, tubed down a river
and enjoyed sightseeing in many differ-ent places. I even tried the Flo-rider onboard, which is like surfing in a pool.”
Mrs. Lundstedt said it’s the cruisinglifestyle that she’s really come to enjoy.
“One way I’ve found to be able toenjoy these vacations is that I actuallyhave a layaway plan with the travelagency,” she said. “I couldn’t afford togo all the time if I had to come up with$700 or $800 at one time. So instead,every paycheck I’ll pay $50 or $100.Sometimes I’ll actually pay more so Ihave a cash-credit when I’m ready togo. That way, by the time the trip comesalong, it’s already paid for, and I’m notworried or stressed about coming upwith the money.”
Mrs. Lundstedt said her advice foranyone out there, who might wonder ifcruising is for them, is to give it a try.
“It’s very doable,” she said. “The crew
and agents are fantastic. It’s a wonder-ful experience. I’d much rather take acruise by myself than say drive a caracross the country alone. I think cruis-ing is much safer.”
Alison Turner, director of marketingand communications for the CruiseLines International Association, saidher company keeps no statistics for sin-gle cruisers.
“We don’t have figures on single trav-elers,” Ms. Turner said. “But, cruiseships are very good at accommodatingall passengers. I would say that every-one on board is going to be safe, andsince hospitality and customer satis-faction is a big part of the ship-person-nel training, everyone should be able tohave a good time.”
Some ships actually have specialaccommodations for single travelersthat include a smaller stateroom, Ms.
Turner said. Other ships have singleevents, mixers or cocktail receptions, sosingle guests can mingle.
For Mrs. Lundstedt, whose nextcruise is on ‘layaway’ for a May depar-ture, said she enjoys the chance to relaxand have a crew of people ready to waiton her.
“I’ve traveled so much that now I’m aDiamond member, which means I getcertain perks,” she said. “SometimesI’ve been upgraded to a suite, or largerstateroom. Sometimes, I’ll have a littlegift basket waiting for me when I checkin. Sometimes, there are special cock-tail receptions. It’s a nice little addi-tion.”
“I know it’s not for everyone, but itworks well for me,” she added. “I lovethe whole experience. It’s like having avery nice hotel room that travels alongwith you.”

Traveling in numbersADVENTUREFor nearly 25 years, a group known
as the Trailblazers has served theSpace Coast, offering travel andactivities to singles, who are lookingfor both adventure and enjoyment.
“We will be celebrating out 25thanniversary next year,” said BillThomas, current president of thegroup, which boasts nearly 400members, stretching along the SpaceCoast. “Originally the group beganwhen a few single people, who hadmoved to Florida without family,decided to get together and do thingsas a group rather than alone. It grewfrom that.”
Even though you do have to be sin-gle to join, the group stresses that it’snot designed as a “dating club.”
“I think it’s fair to say we are an
adventure club for singles,” Mr.Thomas said. “We have a lot of activi-ties that provide our members withan opportunity to go places and dothings as a group rather.”
The group has an active social cal-endar, and members have numerouschoices for trips or to enjoy variousactivities, not just in Florida, butwherever their imagination leads.
“We have an annual week-long tripto the Keys, where our group takesover an entire oceanfront condo, atrip to Savannah in December, boat-ing events, kayaking, a trip to Geor-gia in the fall to see the colorfulleaves, hiking, biking, camping, par-ties, dances, picnics. You name it.

Staying afloat: tips for beginnersBOATINGLearning to boat or sail is similar to
learning to drive an automobile. Nei-ther one happens overnight. Learn-ing to get around on the water can beexciting, but it can also be intimidat-ing to take over the reins of a boat forthe first time.
Though beginners might be appre-hensive when they first start to boator sail, there are some tips that canmake it a little easier for those new tocaptaining their own ship.
Start small. Much like teenagerslearning to drive are often more com-fortable learning behind the wheel ofa compact car, boating beginnersmight be more comfortable learningto sail on a small boat. Smaller boatsare easier to maneuver, making eventhe most nervous novice a little morecomfortable.
Choose calm waters in which to
practice. According to the UnitedStates Coast Guard, in 2010, therewere more than 4,600 recreationalboating accidents that involved 672deaths. Beginners should alwayspractice in calm waters that don’tboast big waves or lots of fellowboaters. This gives beginners thechance to learn the feel of the boatwithout the added pressure of han-dling choppy waters or traffic.
Read the weather reports. Veteranboaters struggle with inclementweather from time to time, so begin-ners should expect to struggle withadverse conditions, as well. But don’tbe caught off guard by bad weather.Always check the weather reportsbefore going out, and be sure to bringalong appropriate attire and gear.
Don’t go it alone. Boating and sail-ing come with their own terminology,
which beginners are typically unfa-miliar with. Before heading out onthe water, learn as much of this ter-minology as possible – be it by study-ing manuals or books or even askingexperienced friends for help.
Respect other boaters. Boating is ahobby enjoyed by millions, and
boaters should always respect thatthere are other people on the water,as well. Whether you’re out in themiddle of the ocean or relaxing at thepier on your docked boat, respect theother boaters by keeping the musicdown and always discarding of trashin a responsible way.

We’re only limited in what peoplewant to do and organize,” Mr.Thomas said. “Anyone can come upwith an idea and make the arrange-ments and put it on the calendar. It’sgreat. By being a group, we get a dis-count on some services and events,and of course, we have the advan-tage of doing something we enjoywith others.”
Susan Nolan knows the advantageof belonging to the Trailblazers. TheIndian Harbour Beach residentrecalls exactly when she decided tojoin.
“It was New Year’s Eve five yearsago, and I didn’t have any plans,”said Ms. Nolan, a Brevard Countythird-grade teacher. “I was about tospend the night alone when a friendof mine, who was a member said,‘Why don’t you come to the Trail-blazer New Year’s Eve party?’ So I
went and had so much fun that Ijoined the next week.”
Since joining, Ms. Nolan has gonewhite-water rafting, taken a trip toSavannah, boating on CumberlandIsland and ventured to the FloridaKeys.
“It’s just a lot of fun,” she said.“The good thing about the group isthe trips are all planned out. All youhave to do is write a check and showup. It makes it very easy to enjoy anouting.”
While the group stresses it isn’t a‘dating’ club, often the proximity toother singles leads to more thantravel, as Ms. Nolan admitted.
“I met my boyfriend at a Trailblaz-er event,” she said. “We first metwhen a group of Trailblazers gath-ered at a Friday Fest in DowntownMelbourne. Later that year, we wentto the Keys and ran into each otheragain. I thought it was just the sunand water and adventure, but once I

Few hobbies can be as enjoyableone moment and as frustratingthe next as golf. Golfers know a
great putt can be quickly followed bya bad tee shot, and maintaining theircomposure through the highs andlows of the game is a key to successon the links.
Maintaining composure isn’talways easy, even for the profession-als. It’s even more difficult forbeginners, who quickly learn golfinvolves more than just spendingsunny weekend afternoons onpristine golf courses. In fact, golf canbe quite demanding and beginnerswould be wise to heed a few tipsbefore hitting the course.
Don’t commit to an expensive setof clubs right off the bat. Golf clubscan be very expensive, so beginnersshould buy an affordable second-hand set of clubs so they can get the
hang of what they like before spend-ing a lot of money. Visit a pro shopand explain that you are a beginner.The shop will likely make somevaluable suggestions and might evenlet you try out some clubs. In addi-tion, many driving ranges allowcustomers to rent clubs and this canbe a great and inexpensive way tofind the right clubs for you.
Take lessons. Even the very best atself-teaching might find it extremelydifficult to become a self-taughtgolfer. When first trying your hand atgolf, take some lessons and don’texpect to be playing 18 holes anytime soon. Before hitting the course
— where you might be discouragedand you might frustrate those golfingbehind you — learn the fundamen-tals by taking a few lessons at thedriving range. Learn from a profes-sional, who won’t offer you anyhidden secrets to golfing glory (therearen’t any) but will offer soundadvice on the game’s fundamentals.
Take the game home with you.Beginners can even take advantageof golf’s vast popularity by taking thegame home with them. This doesn’tmean building a putting green inyour backyard. Rather, purchasesome instructional DVDs to learn thegame during your down timethroughout the week. Many golfersdon’t have time to hit the linksduring the week, but they do havetime to watch some DVDs when theyget home from work. Such instruc-tional DVDs can help you master
your grip and stance, which you canthen take with you to the course overthe weekend.
Have fun. Golf is a fun game; it justtakes time to hone your skills. Buteven if you aren’t ready for theprofessional tour after your first fewrounds, you can still have fun. Don’tlet some beginner’s frustration,which every golfer experiences, ruinthe fun of the game. Take note ofyour surroundings when you hit thelinks, and appreciate the time you’respending with your group. If thegame becomes more a source offrustration than fun, then take abreak and put in some more workaway from the course, be it at thedriving range or studying at home.

When I think of history inFlorida, my mind automati-cally goes to St. Augustine.
There is something about theCastillo De San Marco looming outover the water and the shops on andaround St. George Street that bringsout the adventurer in me.
The shops along St. George Street arepart of the history itself. The variouscurrent souvenir shops were mortuar-ies, shops that housed the soldiers andthe town folk from centuries.
Seek out the Oldest House, close tothe City Gates on St. George Street. Thesmall wooden school house was builtmore than 200 years ago when Floridawas controlled by Spain.
Walk further down St. George Streetand see the water wheel, and a littlefurther down, keep your eyes peeledfor a small sign leading to the OldSpanish Bakery.
The building, one of the first on St.George Street, is used to cook deliciousSpanish foods like empanadas andfresh bread that fills the surroundingarea. The old hearth and is still used forbread making.
Bring your cash though, because asold as the building is, the bakery is notable to get a phone line.
The downtown area offers a plethoraof dining experiences that can only befound there. My favorites are theColumbia Restaurant, Scarlett O’Hara’sand to satisfy my craving for wine,Sangrias.
After shopping to your heart’scontent, head to the Castillo De San
Marco.Building of the fort began in 1672 to
defend Florida against pirates huntingthe Spanish treasure ships.
The history of the fort includesSpanish, Seminole and Apache Indian,French and British history. The tourthrough the fort will bring you throughthe soldier’s quarters, through thegunpowder room (you have to crawlthrough the small area), the cathedraland up along the battlements wherelive reenactments of cannon fire aredone.
The battlement also gives you themost gorgeous view of the MatanzasBay, the ships and the light house.
I have been to St. Augustine manytimes, but I didn’t fully get an apprecia-tion for the city until I went on a ghosttour.
Whether or not you believe whetherghosts exist or not, the amount of
historical knowledge that the guideshave is immense. There are a numberof ghost tours through St. Augustinebut I chose ‘A Ghostly Experience’located at 2 St. George Street, near thecity gates. The tour was featured on theTravel Channel and the DiscoveryChannel.
Walking with the period dressedguide around the city was a real eyeopener to the life that was livedcenturies before.
The stories continue to each landmark, then through the Tolomato andHugenaut Cemeteries.
There are lots of other things to do inSt. Augustine, including the quest forthe Fountain of Youth, touring the lighthouse or going to Ripley’s Believe It orNot!

While traveling recently, Iexperienced a short delayin boarding. Not a ‘hold the
presses’ revelation, but the reasonfor the delay is a new one on me.
A lovely young lady appearedfrom behind the closed doors toannounce to us already-lined-uppassengers that there had been aminor ‘incident’ and our plane hadbeen bumped. It appeared the onlydamage was a dent in the skin, butthe airline didn’t want to takechances and were sending a crew tocheck the dent to make sure itwould not affect the plane’s per-formance.
Aside from someone in the backdeclaring his car was dented all overand he still drove it, we all quietlytook our seats, still clutching ourcarry-on bags.
I could not stop the questions
bouncing around inside my head.How does one ‘bump’ an air-
plane?This is not a short compact car
that you accidentally tap trying toparallel park; this is a huge, shiny,metal object, complete with largeprint and pictures. Not to mentionthe uncountable decibel level ofnoise coming from all thoseengines. Ray Charles would know itwas there!
Planes are also very tall, whichmeans the only thing that couldhave dented the skin would have

Traveling with the right herbsHERB CORNERAs an herbalist I never travel
without my herbal first-aid kit,which is fortunate because it
has come in handy on many occa-sions. My kit is a makeup case but itcan be a plastic box, tackle box,sewing box, or an old purse. Theherbs I carry have addressed manyissues such as colds, blisters, nausea,diarrhea, sunburn, sea-sickness andmuscle aches. The more I travel themore issues I come up with. Themost important thing to remember isto clearly label all that you arecarrying with the herb name, usesand dosage. You’d be surprised whatyou forget in an emergency.
My kit contains the following herbsalong with band-aids, gauze, scis-sors, tape and tweezers. With theseyou too can be prepared for manyconditions encountered on yourtravels.
Echinacea extract helps bothinternal and external infectionsincluding wounds a cold or the flu.I’ve used it on venomous bug bitesand as a gargle for a sore throat.Homeopathic Arnica and Arnicasalve help reduce inflammation andpain. When used immediately theycan help prevent bruising. I carry asmall amount of homeopathic Arnicawith me in my purse; it helped whenI was in a car accident to preventbruising. It works by influencinglevels of NF kappa-B a centralmediator of inflammation. DriedGinger comes in handy for sea
sickness, motion sickness andnausea when made into a tea. In atea as a nasal wash I have used it torelieve sinus congestion and whenadded to a bath it helped a severecold and body aches. PowderedYarrow applied topically on woundsdisinfects and stops the bleeding.This is probably why soldiers carriedYarrow with them since medievaltimes. Burn Salve made with Calen-dula, Plantain, Comfrey and St. JohnsWort. This blend helps sunburns,cuts, bruises, splinters, blisters, dryskin, chapped lips and nose bleeds.Elderberry extract for cough andrespiratory infections, it containscompounds that prevent flu virusesfrom invading and infecting cells.
I also carry the essential oils ofPeppermint, Tea Tree and Lavender.Peppermint is used to relieve soremuscles and headaches. It works by
depleting substance P (a neurotrans-mitter that registers pain). I dilutePeppermint with jojoba oil because itcan be irritating to skin. I have alsoused it on long road trips to keep mealert. Tea Tree works as an antisepticfor the mouth, cuts and bug bitesplus it keeps bugs form biting you. 2-3 drops of Lavender can be putdirectly on a burn to relieve pain orto relive the itch of a bug bite. 20drops added to 2oz. cool water canbe dabbed or sprayed on to sunburn.It can be applied to your temples torelieve headaches and for insomnia.
I have had plenty of opportunitiesto use my first aid kit, having it withme gives me peace of mind while I’mon the road.

been another plane. I just don’t get awarm, fuzzy feeling knowing there isa person driving in the same sky-space as we are - that could notavoid such a monster object whileon the ground.
I also have to wonder how theyfound out there was a bump andconsequential dent. Did one pilotget out of his plane and leave a notecontaining his license number andinsurance company information?Did a sky cap witness the incident
and call someone in the controltower?
Does the pilot, who did thebumping, have to take a two-hourcourse to keep the points off hislicense?
Other than that, we had a mostlyuneventful trip, and consideringwhat a big flight-baby I am, I mustsay, breaking only two fingernails,while disengaging them from thearmrests and having only oneperson stumble over me when Ikneeled to kiss the tarmac is per-haps my personal best post-flightbehavior to date.

March is Brain Injury AwarenessMonth.
Melbourne Terrace RehabilitationCenter promotes public awareness ofbrain injury, in collaboration with theBrain Injury Association of America’syearly campaign.
Every fall has the capacity to injurethe brain to some extent. Researchshows that people 65 and older are inthe greatest risk category for falls andsubsequent injury. Melbourne Ter-race is offering free consultation andcomputerized balance testing with atrained physical therapist to discussthe benefits of a balance & fall pre-vention program.
They report using a new andadvanced technology with a comput-erized Biosway balance device. Theirdepartment of balance rehabilitationincludes therapists with advancedvestibular training and certification,which means they bring specialknowledge of the complex sensors inthe eyes, ears and body and how itrelates to brain function and balance.
The balance test only takes apatient two minutes standing on aBiosway platform to determine theability to maintain safe balance. Thesystem provides a clinical printedreport that can be given to physiciansand then used to implement a widevariety of balance-related exercises.A patient can then learn new balancestrategies via biofeedback from a
computerized screen that shows howto correct instability. The interactivestanding platform is used in therapyto show righting ability via the use ofa computer screen and allowspatients to improve their balanceduring the course of their therapy.
To schedule your free balancescreening, call 321-725-3990.
