=Hoppe's Happy Tours Site = =Travel Log Assignment Instructions = = = = = We've all probably been someplace other than our home town. We all have dreams of someplace we'd like to go. This wiki is going to be our travel companies' travel log of sample tours in the USA. Your work group will be a small travel company that will design, plan, and advertise a sample tour through three cities either in an area one of you has already been and would like to recommend to others or to an area where you think people dream of going.

In the planning stages each member of your company will have to find two other travel web sites and conduct a small-group discussion of what qualities make them successful along with what changes you might like to make. You will use this information to help your company design your own page. The content your company will have to decide on includes how many people your travel package will include, how many days the trip will be, what special offers will be available with the vacation, and what three cities your tour will go through. Your trip **must** include at least one museum, gallery, or walking art tour in each city.

Each individual will also have to design his/her own travel company logo, business card, letterhead, and brochures in Adobe PhotoShop according the rules of the PhotoShop lesson in class. Your company will be able to choose one team member's logo or combine designs to make a whole new logo.

Your final page posted in this wiki will include your travel company's logo, three or more photos that tell viewers something about the place being advertised, key points about the tour, and a link to your brochure. The pictures can show what the place looks like, what activities somebody might do at this place, or how a person would feel if he were at that place, himself. Maybe the pictures can include one of your families having fun. The brochure must have some history about the location, directions to the place from three major cities, and package details such as dates, activities, and prices.

Each group member is encouraged to work with family members on this, but this is not required. Maybe your parents will like the travel idea your company designs and purchase your offer for their next family vacation.
