Q: I have flights booked but we'll now need to quarantine to on our return - can I get my money back if I don't want to travel? A: It very much depends who you are booking with. Easyjet and British Airways are both allowing customers who have flights cancelled the chance to either rebook, accept a credit note or get a refund. They are also offering flexible booking policies which allow people to change dates and destinations up to the end of September if you no longer want to travel. But Ryanair will not offer refunds - it will allow you to change your flights to a different date without having to pay a change fee. Q: Will Eurotunnel and ferry crossings booked for the next few weeks be cancelled? Will I get my money back? A: As of right now, both ferry companies and Eurotunnel are planning to continue with their services so if you choose not to travel because of the quarantine restrictions, you will need to contact them and see what your options are. Most companies are offering to postpone or re-arrange crossings for later in the year if you have booked a flexible ticket.
Aerial photo of uncontacted tribe in Brazil. Photo courtesy of the Government of Brazil. In 2008, images of an uncontacted tribe in the Amazon rainforest in Brazil created ripples. With bodies painted in bright red war colors, members of the tribe aimed their arrows at a Brazilian government plane flying overhead, occupants of which were attempting to photograph the tribe to prove their existence to the world. Now, a new study has found another way to survey such uncontacted tribes safely and remotely—using satellite images. Scientists from University of Missouri and University of New Mexico used Google Earth imagery from 2006 to estimate the population of one such isolated tribe in Brazil near the Peruvian border, in the study published in The American Journal of Human Biology. The image showed a small village with four longhouses and horticultural fields in a clearing of 3. 8 hectares within the dense Amazon rainforest. By comparing the area of this village with that of 71 other indigenous Brazilian villages in forests with known populations, they estimated the population of this uncontacted village.
Things slow down slightly in May, making lines at restaurants and tour buses a little less crowded. As far as the weather, it can be cool enough for a light sweater, hot and humid enough for shorts and tank tops, or damp enough for umbrellas. Rarely will it freeze past mid March. Layered natural fiber clothing, comfortable walking shoes and a little backpack are excellent basic attire. Summer - June, July and August. Gaining in popularity for a fun cultural family experience, June and July, Savannah offers many fun things to do, especially as a learning experience. With nearby Tybee Island beaches, Savannah family travel includes a town and country vacation. Girl Scouts visiting Juliette Gordon Low's birthplace home make up a large percentage of youthful travelers in the city. If you want to avoid crowds with many children, consider a different time of year. Almost like clockwork, tourism drops considerably the first of August as people prepare for "back to school. " Hotels that were sold out one week before will now have an abundance of rooms.
