Dream Vacation Project

You have just won $25,000 and have decided to take a seven day dream vacation, but first your need to develop a plan!  Your vacation can be what you want it to be:  you can fly around the world, go skiing in Europe, travel to Asian countries or book a hunters dream trip for a week.  Use your imagination, after all you have 25K!!!!!

Your plan will include an itinerary (using word or docs), a budget spreadsheet (using Excel), and a power point or slides showing where you are going and things you are going to do on your vacation.

You will need to create a folder in your drive titled Dream Vacation and put all the documents created for this assignment in this folder.

You will research what an Itinerary is and create one for all seven days of your trip.  It should include flights, ship off times if a cruise, hotels, check in check out times, details of your trip on a day to day basis. This document should cover all 7 days.  You can put in page breaks and put each day on a separate page but still in the same document.  If you look up some examples it will help you with planning this document.  Your vacation should leave on Sunday and return on Saturday.

You will research all the cost involved in taking this dream vacation and create a spreadsheet budget to account for all the cost associated with this trip.  Your budget will need to include transportation cost, food cost, Entertainment cost (shows, skydiving, scuba diving, etc), hotel cost, etc…. You will have to do extensive research to get accurate cost information.   You will need to put in the proper formulas to total your expenses for this trip.  Research example budgets to give you an idea of a format you might like to use.  Make sure that you make your budget look awesome.  Use borders, shading, format your numbers with $$, etc…..  You need to spend as much of your $25,000 as possible but do not go over.

You will create a slide presentation that shows where you are going on your vacation.  It should include enough slides to show what you are planning to do on each day.
