NEW YORK VACATION

TRANSPORTATION

Are we there yet?


As transportation coordinator you will need to decide how you and your 
group mates will get from Buffalo to your vacation spot. You will have to 
research prices of different modes of transportation and how long it will 
take. Remember that the transportation will cut into your 7 days of your 
vacation. If you want to drive, you have to take into consideration the 
price of gas. For this activity gas is $1.45 a gallon and the car gets 25 
miles to the gallon. Make sure to keep notes of all your information in a 
journal so that you have all your information handy when you get back with 
your group.

Here are some questions to keep in mind when looking of TRANSPORTATION:
1. What is the cost of the transportation for all three people?
2. How long will it take to get from Buffalo to your vacation spot?
3. How comfortable will the trip be?
