Sometimes there’s just some superb bargains pop into my view - check this beauty out in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote (one of the most southerly resorts on the island) and this was in the school holidays too!

It sleeps 12 (with 6 bedrooms), and it’s about £1500 off, so now it worked out around £500 per person (which included the villa and accidental damage cover; and I’d package that with additional flights that suit and transfers or car hire too so that you’re ATOL protected)

Proper bit of luxury villa lifestyle eh 👌🏻

If someone in your family / group can’t travel overseas, and you’d prefer a UK property to enjoy this lovely weather - or any other country… you know the drill>>

TRAVELLING TO THE USA SOON? IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR ESTA (VISA WAIVER) TRAVELLERS 🇺🇸✈️

Even if your ESTA was previously approved it is crucial you check it again before you travel.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection have cancelled some previously approved ESTA applications where the photo that is required as part of the application process is a picture of a traveller's passport photo.

Please ensure that the photo you provide as part of the application process is an up-to-date original photo, taken at the time of application.

I strongly recommend anyone travelling on an ESTA to check the status of their ESTA prior to travel and reapply if it has been cancelled for any reason.

Anyone that’s required to have an ESTA at embarkation of cruises that include travel to the U.S. will be denied boarding if the ESTA is not valid or has been cancelled. Please note this applies to guests travelling to the U.S. by air or land prior to your cruise as well.

So even if your ESTA was previously approved check it now and before you travel on the CBP website. If it has been cancelled you must reapply using the correct live photo format immediately.

You can find further information on the CBP website ....

Fortune enough to have lived in Banff, Alberta (Canadian Rockies) for a ski season. Amazing place in the winter and even more popular in the summer!!

If you’d like to go for a visit - whether to snowboard or ski; hike or bike, or just enjoy the towns, mountains and superb nature around the province… give me a nudge 👌🏻
