Travel Goods

Accidents happen on any trip, especially when it involves the outdoors. Travel prepared with Be Smart Get Prepared’s Happy Camping first-aid kits, which come in various sizes and feature different essentials for whatever family travel you’re on.

 

For the all-encompassing first-aid kit, Happy Explorer ($20) is the kit for you and your family. It includes 265 pieces and supplies such as treatments for poison ivy, insect bites and stings; treatments for first- and second-degree burns; and care for blisters, minor aches and pains. The kit also includes SILVEX Wound Gel, a gel that inhibits the growth of bacteria and creates a continuous protective barrier for skin and wounds.

If you don’t necessarily need as extensive of a kit, consider Happy Wanderer ($20) instead. This 134-piece kit comes in a soft nylon bag and provides treatments for cuts and scrapes, lacerations, first- and second-degree burns, bleeds, blisters, and more.

 

And for a quick trip or trek, Happy Hiker ($12) ensures you’ve got all the essentials without the bulk. Ideal for small cuts and scrapes or irritation from poison ivy or mosquitoes, this 65-piece kit is handy when you’re in a pinch.

There’s even a waterproof first-aid kit ($7) for days out on the water. These three kits are all available at Walmart.

 

As a bonus, every kit purchased funds orthopedic surgeries for disabled children.

 

In addition to first-aid kits, TriKits also sells shower packages for campers; first-aid kits for you and your pet; a one-person, one-day survival kit; a heat relief package; bug bite treatment kit; road trip essential kit; and more.

This Golfing Destination Doubles as a Great Family Vacation Spot

A golf trip may not seem like the ideal place for a family vacation — unless the whole family loves to golf. While that isn’t always the case, everyone deserves to enjoy what they love when they get to take time away from life. Luckily, there are some amazing destinations offering the best of both worlds — great family getaways along with world-class golfing.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
