Saying Goodbye to 2009 in Travel: Six More Links

Travel Blog  •  Eva Holland  •  01.04.10 | 5:26 PM ET

We spent last week saying our farewells to the year that’s just ended—in books, video and more. But before we truly close the book on 2009, there are a few more links worth checking out.

The Times of London has put together its own year-end list of best travel books, while the New York Times also rounds up some holiday travel reads.

Gawker’s readers provide some harrowing tales of holiday travel disasters.

Social bookmarking site StumbleUpon has collected its most popular travel content for the year, and Jaunted has handed out the full roster of its 2009 travel awards, The Jauntys.

Finally, over at Flyover America, World Hum contributors Jenna Schnuer and Sophia Dembling are ready to look ahead: They’re airing their 2010 travel non-resolutions.

Got a link that we missed? Drop it in the comments. Happy New Year!

Thanks, as always, for linking to Flyover America. For part one of our non-resolutions: http://readflyoveramerica.com/2009/12/28/new-years-resolutions-sort-of/. I look forward to seeing what all everybody else has or has not promised….

And happy 2010,

I am traveling to Hyderabad, Bangkok, Phutket, Beijing and Shanghai this spring and would like to get some travel guides or books to read first to plan our trip. Any recommendations??
