Passport Tips from Aura Travel

What? I can't travel internationally with my birth certificate? 🤔😂

Here are some funny & essential passport tips to ensure smooth sailing on your next adventure:

1. Avoid Coffee Stains: Your passport loves coffee as much as you do, but not on its pages! Keep it clean and caffeine-free.
2. Picture-Perfect: That passport photo may haunt you for 10 years. Practice your best "I’m-not-actually-at-the-DMV" smile!
3. Waterproof Wonder: Your passport isn't a fan of swimming. Keep it dry, even if you plan to dive into adventures.
4. Page Turner: Passport stamps are cool, but doodles? Not so much. Save your artistic talents for the travel journal.
5. Check Your Passport’s Validity: Avoid that "Oh no!" moment at the airport. Make sure your passport is up-to-date!
6. Renew Early: Save yourself from rush fees and last-minute panic. Renew early, travel easy.
7. Request Extra Passport Pages: More pages = more stamps! And it’s free when you renew.
8. Back Pocket No-No: Never put your passport in your back pocket. It's a pickpocket's dream and your nightmare!
9. Always Look Twice: Keep an eye on your passport. It loves playing hide and seek when you least expect it.
10. Color-Coded Stickers: Traveling with friends? Add small, colorful stickers to your passports for easy ID. No more accidental swaps!
11. Get Global Entry: Includes TSA PreCheck. Breeze through security like a VIP.
12. Expedited Passports: Use an expediter if you’re in a hurry. Time is of the essence!
13. 6-Month Validity Rule: Ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months. Some countries are picky!
14. Emergency Plan: If you’ve lost your passport or it’s expired and you need to travel immediately, check out the new local passport offices for emergency services.

Exciting News! They’re adding more Passport Offices to make getting your passport (or an expedited one) easier and closer to home!

Happy travels, and may your passport always be ready for your next adventure!

In Fiscal Year 2023, the Department of State issued over 24 million passport books and cards – more than ever before. To better serve th...

*****From Gabriel & Amber 🙂
Just wanted let you know Hawaii was amazing.
Maui was our favorite. The Hyatt and it's view exceeded expectations. I really don't know what I expected but dang...
Maui was so relaxing and we drove that little red convertible all around Maui probably twice and still missed some stuff. RTH was the best though. We did it on Sunday morning and we maybe saw 5 other cars on our way there... It was Amber's 40th in Oahu and we went to the Lua for that and then shopped at Tiffany's. She got spoiled. ********

Welcome Home Gabriel & Amber!

Due to the Tragedy that hit the community in our Festus Aura Travel Community yesterday and the babies who lost their lives, we are not posting this week. Please take time and Pray for the families and friends and other children affected by this heinous act.
🥺

We are heartbroken to share that one of our beloved 9-year-old players, Scarlet Parmeley, was the victim of yesterday’s tragic events in Festus.

The family will be holding a prayer vigil at our fields, tonight at 7pm, to honor the memory of Scarlet and her little brother.

In showing our sympathy, 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁’𝘀 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲. The only game that will be played is the Minor softball game that Scarlet would have been playing in, as her teammates would like to honor her memory.

We appreciate your understanding as we come together as a little league family to grieve and support our community.

JUST IN!
HOPE THIS HELPS ☺️

There will be another chance to see the aurora tonight. And maybe Sunday. And maybe the next several days!

This is an historic geomagnetic storm. Many dynamics of this storm have surpassed the Halloween storm of 2003, which is considered a benchmark event.

visibility and timing:

-There is not a way to plan for the best time to see the lights, but what can help is a tracking dynamics such as kp levels, solar winds, magnetic pole position, etc…which will give you a lead time of roughly 30 min.

suggestion: download an aurora app that displays an auroral oval map and monitor how the oval approaches your location. Some good options of apps are below! ☺️

particles are not going to be distributed evenly over an area. You may barely see a faint glow and 3 miles away someone may see pillars dancing overhead.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

Aura Travel does not Support or condone any pranks on misconduct played on or played against any and all humans on earth 🤣😉😜🤪😎😳
But if you must: here is a list of Ideas 🥸🤟😁

April Fool: Jokes to Crack

-Here are some rib-ticklers to kick off the day:
-"What do you call a lazy kangaroo? A: Pouch potato."
-"What did the librarian say to the man looking for books about paranoia? 'Shh! They're right behind you.'"
-"Why does Peter Pan always fly? Because he Never-lands!"

April Fool: Prank Ideas

• Toothpaste Oreos: Swap the cream filling of Oreo cookies with toothpaste. Watch the confusion unfold when someone takes a bite!
• Colorful Face Cloths: Apply face cloths with hidden colorful stains to someone's face while they're not looking. Witness their surprise in the mirror!
• Balloon Avalanche: Fill a doorway with balloons so that when someone opens the door, they're greeted with a cascade of colorful balloons falling on them.
• Jelly Donut Swap: Replace the filling of jelly donuts with something unexpected like ketchup or mustard. Just be prepared for some surprised faces!
• Fake Parking Ticket: Print out a realistic-looking fake parking ticket and slip it onto someone's car windshield. Just make sure they have a good sense of humor!
• Shoe Surprise: Place paper balls inside someone's shoes. When they put them on, they'll be puzzled by the unexpected snug fit!
• Fake Spider in Lampshade: Hide a realistic-looking fake spider inside a lampshade. When someone turns on the light, they'll get a surprise!
• Keyboard Confusion: Rearrange the keys on someone's keyboard to spell out a funny message or just mix them up for some typing confusion.
• Spicy Citrus: Inject oranges or tangerines with hot sauce and offer them to unsuspecting victims. Their taste buds are in for a fiery surprise!
• Sticky Sanitizer: Replace hand sanitizer with transparent glue or liquid silicone. When someone uses it, they'll be in for a sticky situation!
• Chair Tail: Create an accordion-shaped tail with toilet paper and attach it to a chair. The unsuspecting sitter will wonder why they suddenly have a tail!
• Shoe Surprise: Place paper balls inside someone's shoes. When they put them on, they'll be puzzled by the unexpected snug fit!
• Fake Spider in Lampshade: Hide a realistic-looking fake spider inside a lampshade. When someone turns on the light, they'll get a surprise!
• Keyboard Confusion: Rearrange the keys on someone's keyboard to spell out a funny message or just mix them up for some typing confusion.
• Fake Bug Invasion: Scatter some fake plastic bugs or insects around the house or office to give someone a scare when they least expect it.
• Replace the cream in Oreos with toothpaste and offer them to your friends as a tasty treat. Watch their faces as they take a bite!
• Put a "broken" sign on the office coffee machine and watch everyone panic until they realize it's just a prank.
• Fill donuts with mayonnaise instead of cream and see if anyone notices the savory surprise.
• Place a few drops of food coloring in the office milk carton and watch as your coworkers pour colorful milk into their coffee.
• Swap out the sugar bowl for salt and wait for the reactions when people take their first sip of salty coffee.
• Put googly eyes on everything in the fridge to give your family a hilarious surprise when they go to grab a snack.
• Set all the clocks in the house an hour early and enjoy the confusion as everyone tries to figure out why they're so early for everything.
• over the TV remote sensor with a small piece of tape and watch as your family members frantically try to figure out why the remote isn't working.
