Brits Urged To Take Vacations At Home
Friday, August 27th, 2010 | Author: 3xwy

British Prime Minister David Cameron is currently vacationing with his family in the seaside county of Cornwall in southwest England.

Officials now hope the “staycation” trend helps rejuvenate some of England’s economically downtrodden coastal towns. But as Eric Westervelt reports, many towns have yet to reap any reward.
