Normally as the weather starts to cool, the caravans and campers get dusted off and people start thinking about the perfect holiday destination.
With travel restrictions, our holiday plans have been a tad stifled, but maybe now is the perfect time to put that little bit of extra effort into the planning stage of the perfect holiday.
Give your friendly library staff a call and, we will visit our Lonely Planet section for you.
Lonely Planet books will take you wherever you want to go in the world, giving you a background to the country’s history and culture.
Each section has a map and gives you information on things like emergency services, currency, laundry, postal services and of course libraries.
You get suggestions on tourist spots and activities, festivals and events.
It will also give you suggestions on where to sleep and where to eat.
The best part about the books is that they give you options in all price brackets not just the shoestring budget places or the Oh my goodness, how will I ever pay this off option.
When I went to the Middle East I found the books very helpful not only in the planning stage but also to give a better understanding of the history and culture of places which are vastly different to our own.
We can still issue your books and we will bring them out to you at the front of the library so give your local library a call, and let your armchair travel begin.
