Europe or Bust!
The highlight of my October was probably the evening I spent with Laurel at a lecture at the Chandler Center for the Performing Arts. Rick Steves, from the popular travel program on PBS, was the featured speaker, and he told stories and talked about ways to have better experiences and cheaper travel when going to Europe. I was a little disappointed because I had emailed him, and Laurel had submitted the same request that night, asking about strategies for the disabled traveler, but he didn't really address that issue. Evidently he prefers that I buy his book, Easy Access Europe, to find answers to my questions! Oh well, it still was a very enjoyable evening being with Laurel and listening to a very entertaining speaker!

Thats really tacky that the issue didn't even come up. If people knew that he addressed a wide variety of issues, including disabled travelers, they would be more likely to recommend as well as buy the book themselves.
It was a fun night! Thanks for taking me!!
Why don't you make that salad that you served to Peggy, etc., for Dad and me and we will pretend that we are going to Europe?

Obviously the real answer is that the disabled cannot enjoy Europe. But if he said that, no one would buy his book.
