Milwaukee, Wisconsin, known as the “pleasant land” by its Algonquian settlers, remains true to its namesake. Milwaukee sits comfortably in the Great Lakes Region near Lake Michigan; locals enjoy its beautiful seasons throughout the year. Jog from your home to a nearby Milwaukee County park, where you can picnic, sunbathe, ice skate, or disc golf. The city has even established free wireless networks in Cathedral Square and Pere Marquette Park. With the Milwauke Community Sailing Center nearby, you have easy access to recreational sailing as well! Milwaukeans know that the best golfing is at Brown Deer Park Golf Course and the premier Milwaukee County Zoo is only a walk away for a day of fun. The majority of Milwaukeans are surprisingly college students. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee is the only public university, however nearby Marquette University is one of the largest private Jesuit universities in the United States. Residents highly value academics, and Milwaukee Public Schools is the one of the largest districts in the nation. One of the most well known attractions is the Milwaukee Art Museum, with runners up including the America’s Black Holocaust Museum and Discovery World. Entertainment nevers grows old with the local Bradley Center; the Milwaukee Bucks, Admirals, and Golden Eagles all host sporting events here, plus the center offers concerts, BMX, ice skating and more! With so many sporting events, it’s easy to see why Milwaukee is known as the beer capital of the world, producing some of America's largest brewers -- Pabst, Schlitz, Miller, and Blatz. Milwaukee is the “City of Festivals,” and is best known for its annual Summerfest, the largest music festival in the world. Over a million visitors flock to the Henry Maier Festival Grounds for this one-of-a-kind family affair. Whether you love the outdoors or choose to cuddle up to a warm fire and gaze at beautiful sunsets, residents of Milwaukee, Wisconsin all agree that this hometown aims to please. |

| Travel Auctions-Fun Way to Bargain Travel |
By now you’ve probably used an online booking site like Expedia or Travelocity. These sites are easy to use and often offer great deals on travel packages, hotels, car rentals, and flights. But, there is an even more fun and easy way to book your travels online! Consider participating in a travel auction! Online travel auction sites allow users to bid on a variety of travel deals and may offer greater savings than other online travel sites. Just like any other auction site, users search for and then bid on specific “items” during the bidding period, when the bidding period ends the user with the highest bid wins the item. Typically, travel details are entered after a winner is chosen. Here are some helpful tips for using a travel auction site: *Be patient. Travel auction sites are getting very popular and some people are bidding way over cost but deals can still be found if you are patient. *Read all the fine print, as there may be taxes and fees that can increase the price. Sometimes the increase can be quite significant so you should consider the total cost (after tax and fees) when bidding for an item. *Be flexible. Travel auctions are not ideal for travelers that require traveling on specific dates. Sometimes you may purchase the item and then chose dates at a later date. *It may be helpful to know on average what the cost would be through a travel agent or other site. If the bids get too high, it may be easier to go elsewhere. *See if there are any auction alert systems available on the site. Use this function to track your auctions. If available, it may be beneficial to see how items have been selling in the past. This can help you establish a maximum bidding price. Sometimes booking travel and planning may be boring and tedious but with travel auctions, you can have fun while getting a great deal. To get started check out skyauctions.com! |
