　　When people take a vacation, can they always enjoy it?

　　The fact is that some people who travel for pleasure get no pleasure from it at all. Others, who travel because they must travel, have a lot of fun doing it. What makes one trip more enjoyable than another?

　　Any trip can be enjoyable if it is well planned. Every minute that you spend in planning your trip may save your ten minutes of trouble during your trip. It may also add an hour of pleasure!

　　Many resorts(旅游胜地) and cities around the world are popular during some months of the year and less popular during other months. Find out if the places you are visiting have an“in” season and an “off” season. This may help you to decide when you want to go. The weather may be too cold or too hot. The beaches may be closed. Hotels and restaurants may be shut. Be sure to find out them before you go.
