Louise Carroll  |  Special to The Ledger My son Michael and daughter-in-law Linda and I started our journey to New Orleans by flying from Pittsburgh to Memphis and spending the night at the Peabody Hotel before leaving for our boat trip down the Mississippi in the morning. Our night at the Peabody was part of our vacation package so we had no idea what it cost but one couple decided to come a day early and spend more time at the Peabody; their extra day cost them over $500. Oh honestly! It was utter and complete luxury at the legendary 4.5 Star hotel in the heart of Memphis. My room was beautiful and included complimentary blue bottles of water, and in case I forgot to bring everything I needed, it was all there from deodorant to conditioner. Who knew? I didn't even need to unpack my toiletries. Your dog or cat is welcome at The Peabody where they enjoy specially equipped rooms with amenities including room service dishes for discerning dogs and finick...

The internet has changed travel planning in many ways. First, travel is more common, more frequent, and the internet allows travelers to make last-minute decisions in just a few clicks. It also gives travelers the option of doing their own research, looking at photos of destination properties and services, reading user reviews, and changing or adjusting their schedules as necessary.
