I especially appreciate the idea of using a credit card without a foreign transaction fee. I thought they all had one. I would like to add one more general travel tip that saved my last trip to Rome from total disaster. I lost my passport during the day but had no idea it was missing. Fortunately, I had an Okoban tracer tag on it. A waiter where I ate lunch found it and entered my tracker number on their website and I was sent a text message (and an email) before I ever even knew my passport was missing. Lucky for me because I was leaving in the morning for Germany and getting a new passport would have been impossible. I found these tags at mystufflostandfound.com. It saved my trip and I now have tags on almost everything that goes with me on a trip.

The Dog actually had a piece that 1)exposed Republicans instead of Democrats, and 2) did not blame public employee unions. It is snowing in Palm Springs as we speak.

Now it’s Taiwan. She went to Hawaii in November and went to Israel in December 2011.

Stop the junkets! Serve your constituents in Tulare County during the legislative breaks. And work on developing a plan that makes Californians want to vote for Republicans in 2014.
