"Airplane travel is nature's way of making you look like your passport photo." Al Gore


You can register with the State Department before going on a trip. The program is called The Smart Traveler Enrollment Program. You let the state department know your travel plans through this program and this will help them contact you if there is a family emergency or if there is a crisis where you are traveling. This information is private and they will not release your information without your authorization. To sign up go to https://travelregistration.state.gov
Now that you have your passport and any visa you might need, go and travel the world. It is an exciting world out there, with so much to see. And if you want a fun travel book to take along on the trip, why not find a copy of "When You Look Like Your Passport Photo, It's Time To Go Home" by Erma Bombeck. It will keep you laughing the whole trip. Enjoy, and travel safely.

Tip: Before leaving home, make a photo copy of the inside of your passport - the page with your picture and all your information. Keep this photo copy in a separate place from your passport, but where you will have it if needed. If you should lose your passport while traveling, having the photocopy will help with getting you back home.
