Dear children:
Your father and I had to leave unexpectedly for a business trip to Atlanta, Georgia. This has left us with no time to plan our family vacation. Based on our family talks, we have chosen these three cities: New York City, New York; Los Angeles, California; and Miami, Florida. We have decided to leave the final location up to you.
It is important for you to consider the following information as you make your decision. We are looking for the lowest possible airfares, hotels, and car rentals.
Working as a group, you need to research information about each of the three cities using the provided Web sites. Use the Word document provided to record your findings about each category to help you compare the three cities.
In order to convince us, you must prepare a travel brochure for the city you choose the best to travel. In each brochure you must highlight the major attractions, and include the information you found on driving, airfare, hotel, and car rental costs. Remember to make your brochure colorful and attractive.
Good luck! We know that this is a big responsibility, but we know you can do it.
Some important information to remember:
• We will be leaving from Houston International Airport.
• We will depart July 24th, 2011, a.m. or p.m.
• We will arrive back July 31th, 2011, a.m. or p.m.
• Remember that your Father and I are counted as adults, and you two are counted as children.
• Remember the three cities you will be exploring:
Miami, Florida
Los Angeles, California
New York City, New York
