      <itunes:summary>Some people think of a &quot;splurge&quot; as something wasteful that you don&apos;t need. Well, in this episode, Heather reminds travelers that a travel splurge is always worth it! A travel splurge could be a room or flight seating upgrade, a room with a view, turning a 4 night trip into a 5, 6 or 7 night trip, or even a specific excursion or tour.  Making the most of every trip creates great experiences and the BEST memories. When evaluating whether a possible &quot;splurge&quot; is worth it, the first thing is to determine what is important to you as a traveler and then what is important to those traveling with you whether it is family or friends. Heather reminds listeners that &apos;it is not the dollar spent but what it is worth it to you&apos;, the traveler. Whether you choose the economy route or an adventurous splurge, travel is always worth it!

There are ways to see the manatees that do NOT require getting in the water such as observatories, boardwalks, and even a boat trip. The manatees are protected by state and federal laws so Crystal Springs is a safe place for the sea cows. Guides are available to help visitors get the most out of their manatee experience whether visitors are in and out of the water. A guide for both individual and group tours is required to get in the water but are a great help for any tour. Chartered boat tours are also a great way to see everything.

She also suggests that each partner sit down separately and make a list of personal hobbies and things they enjoy personally - or things they would want to try, places you want to visit, and things you want to do. Cut each list into strips and put the papers in his and hers bowls. When planning your couples get away, take turns drawing from the bowls until you have created a great - but balanced - trip for two!</p><p>When you are ready to plan your next trip - even if it is a Christmas or after-the-holidays getaway, let Heather and Logan Tate help!  For more information, follow "Heather and Logan Tate: Whimsical Destinations" on Facebook or go to "whimsicaldestinations.com".  <strong> </strong></p><p>Facebook: Heather and Logan Tate Whimsical Destinations</p><p>heather@whimsicaldestinations.com</p><p>662-401-9327</p>

It is so important to appreciate the places you travel as well as the foods, cultures, and experiences you have on your trip. When you travel, it is like being a guest in someone's home. Don't compare your travel destination to your home or home country.  Traveling also helps you to be more appreciative of the things that you have at home! Another great tip is to stay humble as you travel and not present an air of entitlement.  </p><p>When you are ready to plan your next trip, let Heather and Logan Tate help!  For more information, follow "Heather and Logan Tate: Whimsical Destinations" on Facebook or go to "whimsicaldestinations.com".  </p><p>Facebook: Heather and Logan Tate Whimsical Destinations</p><p>heather@whimsicaldestinations.com</p><p>662-401-9327</p>

Heather and Logan were drawn to Charleston for their honeymoon spot because it was the setting for the movie, The Notebook. Since that time they have visited with their older son, London, and plan to take their younger one soon. There is so much to see and do in Charleston that going back always lets you explore a different area. Whether you are in to historic mansions like Boone Hall, battle sites, like Fort Sumter, or want a romantic carriage ride through the city, Charleston is the place to go. For those who like a little fright in their night, there are haunted ghost tours both in the city and on the water. A Harbor Cruise a great way to visit the area.  </p><p>When you are ready to plan your next trip, let Heather and Logan Tate help!  For more information, follow "Heather and Logan Tate: Whimsical Destinations" on Facebook or go to "whimsicaldestinations.com".  <strong> </strong></p><p>Facebook: Heather and Logan Tate Whimsical Destinations</p><p>heather@whimsicaldestinations.com</p><p>662-401-9327</p>

      <title>The Pivot - When Travel Plans Change</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>About Us</strong>: Talk Travel with Heather Tate is one of a series of daily interview shows that air at 11 am on The Shark 102.3 FM Radio Station.  The Shark 102.3 blankets Northeast Mississippi in classic rock & hits and local sports & information.  The interviews are recorded and produced by Sun Bear Studio.  The Shark 102.3 FM Radio Station and Sun Bear Studio are located in Ripley, MS and owned by Chris and Melinda Marsalis.  Chris and Melinda have a passion for community development and love all of the amazing things that are going on in North Mississippi.  Your show host Heather Tate is a lifelong adventurer and travel-planning enthusiast from Northeast MS.  On this podcast Heather will share with you her experiences and travel tips from her personal journey’s and what she has learned as a travel agent for Whimsical Destinations, LLC.</p><p><strong>This Week:   </strong>In this episode, Heather talks about "The Pivot" - you know, the Plan B travel plan when Plan A doesn't work out. Even the best made plans sometimes hit a bump in the road that throws everything sideways. It could be sickness, weather issues, a delayed or missed flight, or simply realizing you have planned a trip for the "wrong" time of the year due to extra hot weather, hurricane season kicking in early, or the expectation of big crowds because kids are out of school. Regardless of the reason- when traveling, it is important to always be flexible and have an alternate plan in your back pocket.  </p><p>This "Pivoting" episode includes some great rules to follow. One bug rule is purchase the Travel Insurance. When things happen and a trip has to be postponed or cancelled, travel insurance is worth every penny! Also, when planning a beach trip or a trip that includes lots of outdoor activities like hiking or sporting adventures, ALWAYS have a Rainy Day Itinerary with indoor activity options for the whole group. Sometimes the days before leaving on a trip and the actually traveling can wear you out so build in a Rest Day or at least some down time at the beginning of the trip instead of jumping straight in with lots of activities or sight-seeing. This information plus so much more makes this episode worth the listen!!</p><p>When you are ready to plan your next trip, let Heather and Logan Tate help!  For more information, follow "Heather and Logan Tate: Whimsical Destinations" on Facebook or go to "whimsicaldestinations.com".  </p><p>Facebook: Heather and Logan Tate Whimsical Destinations</p><p>heather@whimsicaldestinations.com</p><p>662-401-9327</p>

      <itunes:summary>In this week&apos;s episode, Show Host Heather Tate is joined by her husband, business partner, and favorite travel companion, Logan Tate.  Heather and Logan have been traveling together since they were teenagers going on youth church trips. They freely admit they have learned a lot individually and about each other through their travels.  
Loyal listeners of this podcast already know that Heather had early in her life a goal to travel as much and as often as possible throughout her life. In this second episode in a series of four shows, Heather and Logan talk about 

their early travels and the reservations Logan had early in their marriage about traveling so often - and how those have changed. Logan and Heather also discuss some of the experiences they had early on when budgeting went wrong (or something like food was left out of the budget!) and how they overcame those issues. They also encourage travelers to be open to trying different foods as they travel.
When you are ready to conquer your reservations and make some reservations for your next adventure, contact Heather or Logan Tate! For more information, follow &quot;Heather and Logan Tate: Whimsical Destinations&quot; on Facebook or go to &quot;whimsicaldestinations.com&quot;.</itunes:summary>

While Summer is actually just starting, many families are also trying to squeeze in some fun before school starts next month. Heather offers some advice on where NOT to go this late in the hot summer and where to go to take advantage of some cooler temps.  A great option is a visit to a National or State Park like Michigan's Sleeping Bear Dunes or Guntersville Lake in Alabama. A trip to the mountains is always a fantastic adventure but much cooler than the beach at this time of year - and less crowded too! Other terrific adventures include trips to The Ozarks in Arkansas, the mountains of North Carolina, Pigeon Forge, and the indoor and outdoor waterparks of Wisconsin Dells.

      <itunes:summary>In this week&apos;s episode, Show Host Heather Tate gives lots of options for a fun summer trip. While Summer is actually just starting, many families are also trying to squeeze in some fun before school starts next month. Heather offers some advice on where NOT to go this late in the hot summer and where to go to take advantage of some cooler temps.  A great option is a visit to a National or State Park like Michigan&apos;s Sleeping Bear Dunes or Guntersville Lake in Alabama. A trip to the mountains is always a fantastic adventure but much cooler than the beach at this time of year - and less crowded too! Other terrific adventures include trips to The Ozarks in Arkansas, the mountains of North Carolina, Pigeon Forge, and the indoor and outdoor waterparks of Wisconsin Dells. So many options!  Let Heather help you start planning today!
