Two Great Places To Spend Your Summer Vacations

There are many places where you go for your summer vacations but Tucson Arizona and Wisconsin dells are very good places to visit especially if you are a nature loving person.

Tucson Arizona:

This place is a great vacation destination because of its warm temperature, less rain and abundant sunshine.

Even during the winter the temperature remains in a range of 50 degrees to 60 degrees. Rainfall is also very rare and occurs mostly in the months of June and July. 

The geographical location of this place is also very good. You can see the mountain ranges from anywhere but you can only reach the mountains if you pass through the deserts. Twenty minutes drive through the desert will take you to the base of the mountains. Mount Lemmon is one of the mountain ranges. By driving up the twisting roads of Mount Lemmon you can see the unique flora, geology and ecosystems.

If you are planning to go to Tucson Arizona then below are given some useful tips that will make your vacation much easier.

Sunscreen:

It is very important to apply sunscreen if you are going out for more than thirty minutes. Apply it to the exposed areas of skin. This is necessary because the UV index in Arizona rarely drops below maximum, so your skin can burn in ten to fifteen minutes.

Outerwear:

Although the temperature is quite warm in the morning, it gets colder at the night time. So it is better to take a light jacket with you which can protect you from the chills at night. 

Water:

People who are planning to visit deserts in Arizona should take abundant quantities of water or any other fluids with them along with the sunscreen. This will prevent you from getting dehydrated. When you are in the desert, drink water at regular intervals.  This can save you from many problems.

Camera:

Almost every tourist brings cameras with them. Camera is very important if you are going to Tucson for vacation. This is because at this place you will get to see some exciting sceneries which you cannot see in any other part of the world. Make sure that you bring enough films or adequate digital storage with you.

Desert Walking Footwear:

If you are planning to visit the Sonora Deserts around Tucson then bring good footwear with you. many people bring tennis shoes which are not good to wear in the deserts because the spines of cactus can easily pierce the shoes and can hurt your foot.

Know The Animals:

There are some plants and animals that can be dangerous for you. Make sure that you familiarize yourself with these plants and animals that can ruin your vacation. These include rattle snake, spiders, scorpions and several types of cactus.
