Packing light goes far
Anna Maike from Ladysmith, Vancouver Island shares her strategy for a "green" getaway:
This summer I took myself, my three kids, and a babysitter to the Island’s Folk Festival and camped in a Toyota Yaris. We strapped foamies and a tent on the roof, and everything else fit in the car. We sat on our pillows with the kids’ backpacks at their feet. We didn’t pack food since we were fed as performers. Comfortably compact, I was so proud when I left my co-workers to climb into their giant trucks with the 3-bedroom "camping" rancher towing. I only spent about four bucks on gas and had plenty to spend on vendor food.

The best part about vacation rentals in Maui is that it is more affordable than staying in a hotel. You might be surprised to find one located near a beach or golf course and other commercial establishments so you don,t have to travel far when all you want to do is relax.
