Hear, Hear! I was in Edinburgh this last July. I liked it so much, I am planning
on taking a group back with me next July. I can't remember any rude people.
That's one of the reasons I'm going back. 

Boy, I hope all the rude people go on vacation every July so I will have another
great vacation next year.

The Scottish Highlands are a wonderful place to visit, especially if you
like outdoors activities (bicycling, hill-walking, etc).  They're perhaps
less interesting if you prefer a more sedentary holiday, but you can still
enjoy the spectacular views from your car or train seat.

I would recommend that people try to get beyond Inverness, Skye, and Fort
William, though.  Too many people simply visit Inverness, or perhaps follow
the Glasgow-Fort William-Mallaig-Skye-Kyle-Inverness-Edinburgh circuit.
Inverness is one of the least interesting parts of the Highlands, and I usually
pass through it as quickly as possible.  The Skye circuit is not a bad way
to spend a few days in the Highlands if you've never been there before, but
there's a lot more to see if you have more time, or are making a repeat trip.
My personal favorite spot is the Outer Hebridean Islands, especially the Long
Island of Lewis and Harris, which are relatively untouristed, and where Gaelic
is still spoken on a day-to-day basis (especially outside of Stornoway, the
only town on the island).  I also quite like the Trossachs region near Loch
Lomond (a good place to go if you want to meet Scots on holiday) and the
portion of the mainland opposite Skye.  No doubt other people have their
own recommendations, would anyone care to add them?

Well, I grew up in Rockville, my parents live there.... (Oh, *IMPORTANT*
sites).  Best way to do the Washington thing is the Metro.  It comes up
smack through Rockville and zips right down to the Mall.  Custom made for
your application.  My little old lady mother travels on it routinely
without difficulty - it is far nicer than, say, the New York subway.

Your only problem now is to try and fit as many of the important sites into
your training time.

There is:

* National Air and Space Museum (this is a multi-day project for anybody
   with an ounce of interest in this field)
* History and Technology (Yes, I know it is now American History, but I 
   didn't vote for the guy that changed the name).
* Natural History
* National Zoological Park (The "Zoo").  This has the advantage of being
   in Rock Creek Park which is an oasis of seclusion smack in the middle
   of D.C.  There are reports that people that know where to go catch
   *trout* in some of the streams there.
* National Gallery of Art
* East Wing of Same
* Corcorhan Gallery (is it open now?)

Then the historical sites:

* Lincoln Memorial - even if you're not the flag-waving type, this is a 
   very moving place.  Think about Martin Luther King giving his "I have
   a Dream" speech in front of a Mall *filled* with people.
* White House - see above.  Current occupant notwithstanding, this is 
   an important part of our heritage.
* Jefferson Memorial - probably the best view 
* Washington Monument - never did that much for me
* Vietnam Memorial - I've never been there, but I do need to get there
   some day.  Of course, everybody that goes there finds it an 
   incredibly emotional experience.

Have a great time.

travelled between these two cities by train?  My information sources
reveal that there are two express trains per day, one running during the
day, the other overnight.  There are no express trains on Sunday.  I've
heard that the trip is very nice, but I don't understand why the
"express" train between these cities takes 12 hours.  The distance
appears to be somewhat under 500 miles.  Any information would be
appreciated.  Is it really a very nice trip?  Is it worth spending 12
hours doing it (as opposed to 1.5 hours by plane)?

Organization: UTexas Mail-to-News Gateway

STATE DEPARTMENT TRAVEL INFORMATION - Algeria
============================================================
Algeria - Warning
 October 9, 1992

The Department of State advises U.S. citizens to defer all travel 
to Algeria.  The U.S. government has ordered the departure of minor 
dependents of embassy personnel and has authorized the voluntary 
departure of other dependents, in response to the increased risk of 
terrorist bombings, assassinations, other violence and political 
turmoil.  U.S. citizens currently in Algeria should consider taking 
similar precautions.

Terrorist bombs exploded in Algiers on August 26th at the 
international airport and at the office of an international airline. 
 Other bombings and shootings have occurred recently.  These 
developments indicate that foreigners may become the victims of 
violence.  U.S. citizens currently in Algeria are advised to avoid 
all public gatherings and demonstrations, and take precautions to 
avoid terrorist attacks.  They should cooperate fully with security 
forces at all times, and should remain in close contact with the 
U.S. Embassy in Algiers for additional specific instructions.

U.S. citizens currently in Algeria should avoid travel to the far 
southern region of Algeria.  Numerous incidents of banditry and 
assault involving foreigners have been reported.  Bandits have 
robbed, assaulted, kidnapped, and killed travelers in southern 
Algeria.  The government of Niger has closed the main crossing point 
between Niger and Algeria for security reasons.

U.S. citizens currently in Algeria are encouraged to register with 
and request current information from the American Embassy in Algiers 
(tel.  60-14-25 or 60-12-55).  Operations at the U.S. Consulate in 
Oran have been temporarily suspended.

 No. 92-171

This replaces the advisory dated October 7, 1992 to clarify the 
status of U.S. Embassy dependents in Algeria and to advise that U.S. 
citizens take precautions similar to those of U.S. Embassy personnel.

We've gotten several responses so far from people somewhat familiar with
a trip like this. They range from "The road is very good and it's a really

pulled over and bandits stole everything he had, leaving him stranded 
beside the road".

Note the the first comment was from a girl from Guatamala, and the second
doesn't reveal any specifics, and may be a bit dated.

Has anyone out there got any specifics of the feasibility this road trip.
Is it safe? What are the roads like, esp. down at the Yucatan.

Just a word of caution --

Air canada flights to Europe are smoke free.
Canadian Airlines International(CP)  are also when the flight is operated
by CAI. However, certain CP flights are operated jointly with airlines
such as Air France, Lufthansa, and are double numbered. When the flight uses
partner (rather than CP) equipment, the partner's smoking regulations
apply. I was on CP 1054 from YYZ to CDG recently. It was an Air France
767 and there WAS a smoking section. A small one and at the back, but
there nonetheless. Check who actually operates the specific flight.

I don't know how convenient this would be, but I'm pretty sure all Canadian
airline companies run SMOKE-FREE flights around the world. (I know this is
the case for North America, and I know there was talk of extending it to
overseas flights.)   The two Canadian carriers are Air Canada and Canadian
Airlines International.  (Until the merger, of course!)

Has anyone been to Punta Allen or any other part of Mexico's
Sian Ka'an wildlife reserve?

I am going to be in the Yucatan peninsula over the xmas holidays and
would like to drive to Punta Allen and stay there for a couple days,
primarily to see wildlife.  I understand that the road is very harsh
and takes about 4 hours to drive the 40 miles from Tulum to Punta
Allen.

Apparently there are no phones in the area, but there are several
minimalist "hotels".  Since I have no way of making reservations,
what are my chances of finding a vacancy (xmas time, remember)?
I figure that trying to arrive early in the morning will help,
but I'm still concerned.  Any ideas?

Any suggestions on things to do or avoid in Sian Ka'an?  My guidebook
says it is a good place to see monkeys, boas, dolphins, manatees, and
frigate birds.  They also recommend hiring a boat and guide, which
sounds fun.  Is the snorkeling good there?

Thanks in advance.

In Switzerland, and perhaps all of Western Europe, breakfast is often included.

When you are considering a place to stay, ask if breakfast is included.  This
can save you some time and money.

My impression of the situation is the following:

1. One major system in Europe are Eurocheques and the Eurocheque card.
Unfortunately for you North Americans in Europe and us Europeans in
North America there is no link to North American banks.

2. All the North American systems like Cirrus, Plus and alike are
extremely rare. Actually, I never noticed even one.

3. Two ways to get money are by credit cards (Amex, Visa and
Mastercard (called Eurocard)...) and to exchange cash. Both is possible
at most of the banks. Most stations and Airport have banks that
exchange money and accept credit cards. However, they often charge
more than the other banks.

All above is nothing more than just to the best of my knowledge. If
you encounter a different situation, do not blame me. There is a great
variety in Europe and details vary from one state to the other.
