                        - 1 Historical site.

                        - A restaurant to have a local dish, 

            3) you must keep a journal of your trip,  this journal is a day by day of your journey discussing everything that you do on the vacation.  It should include travel arrangement, hotels you stayed at, Costs of the hotel, and exchange rates, and you must also discuss the site that you saw. Be sure to give detail as to what each site is, why it is important, and a few good facts about it.  Your journal should cover somewhere between 8- 10 days.                                              First Draft Due April 30th
