Cruising Scotland’s Caledonian Canal
Features, February 2009 issue
2008 marked our 50th wedding anniversary, and we decided it would be a good year to celebrate with our family. Since we are longtime devotees of river cruising, we chartered a barge for our family of seven for a one-week trip in August ’08 through the Highlands of Scotland on the Caledonian Canal. ...
Searching for Harry Potter in and around London
Features, December 2008 issue
Hogwarts, Dumbledore, Voldemort, Muggles, Quidditch: if you’ve heard any of these strange-sounding words from your children or grandchildren, chances are they are fans of the best-selling Harry Potter books.

Five of the books have been made into successful motion pictures, and Marcus and I traveled to the London area in April ’08 to visit some of the locations used in the films. ...
Exploring Spain’s Extremadura
Features, August 2008 issue

Physicians could not study medicine without studying botany.” ...
A single’s travel options
Travelers' Intercom, March 2008 issue
First off, I do not use a travel agent; I’ve had bad luck with them. They have trouble understanding I don’t want the local Hilton but something a bit lower on the food chain. They are so used to suggesting the better things of travel. When I did my first India trip, I was told by ...
