I have a question??  I went to this beautiful zoo a couple of years ago
and worry for not only their animals (many of them have outside habitats
because of the warm weather.. much like the Ft. Worth, TX zoo) but also
the Koalas in the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago (where I used to live)..
The Miami Metrozoo grew the bamboo for these animals and shipped it  a
couple of times a week to Chicago.  Does anyone know how this will be done
now???  (only san diego, the Metro zoo and Lincoln park had koalas last
Time I heard.. and miami grew bamboo for chicago and their own animals..
san diego grew their own food).  How tragic.  :(

If anyone can get news.. I would appreciate it.

A friend and I are starting to plan a trip to Britain for next year -
probably spring.  We'd like to rent a car and drive through England, Wales,
and Scotland, probably staying in B & B's and small hotels along the way.
We'd like to see the countryside, but are also particularly interested in
standing stones, old archaeological sites, etc.  Of course, we'd also love
in the proverbial haunted house or castle!  We'd appreciate any suggestions
or recommendations from those on this list.  Thanks -- Debbie Ader

The museum in DC that people keep referring to is the Army Medical Museum at
Walter Reed Army Hospital.  It has very effective exhibits dealing with path-
ology and war wounds (some quite stark), tropical medicine, microscopy, and
the history of medicine.  It is one of the best teaching museums I've ever
seen and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in those topics.  If you
go there for prurient kicks or like being grossed out, you'll it, but
that's like going to the National Gallery and being turned on by the paintings
of Rubens and Titian.
If you want to get your kicks from pickled, malformed fetuses, go to N.Y.U.
where they have a big enough collection to satisfy any freak.

It has been a while since I have been to Spain, but something which we really

I think most of the buildings he designed can be found in southern Spain.

Definitely try the Spanish churros - they are delicious, esp. in the morning.
Also, getting in a local (?) game of Bocci ball is really fun.

     The APA Insight Guide to Scotland says: "The Gaelic-speaking community,...
holds its great annual gathering, the National Mod, in different parts of
Scotland every year."  Unfortunately, it neglects to describe the "gathering",
or to mention where one can obtain more information.  Is this a music or folk
festival?  Has anyone been or does anyone know to whom I can write to obtain
dates and venues?  The same guide also mentions a few "smaller traditional folk
festivals" in the following places:  Keith (June), Auchtermuchty (August),
Kirriemuir (Sept.), Shetland (April), and Orkney (May).  Has anyone been to one
or another of these?

Koalas do not eat bamboo, they only eat eucalytpus, and only certain types
at that. I would not worry, eucalytpus trees are very hardy and very fast
growers. As an aside, I read once that when the first koalas were given to
Japan, Qantas flew eucalyptus leaves to Japan until their trees grew enough to
sustain the creatures.

As far as I know, Aeroflot's largest base outside of the CIS is at Shannon. Also
if you go to Moscow Duty Free at the airport, most of the cashiers will have
Irish accents as it is owned and operated by Shannon Airport. I haven't flow
from America to Ireland but $800 sounds good. I do know that a friend of mine
travelled from London to America and she found that the cheapest way was to
fly Aer Lingus, stopping off at Shannon, as opposed to flying directly. She
even went through US customs in Shannon so that when she got off the plane in
New York she just walked straight out!

PS, having flown Aeroflot from Singapore to London via Moscow and two other
stopovers in between, I feel confident in saying that it is definitely not
the most comfortable airline in the world - but it is cheap!

The U.S. Army has a museum on the grounds of Walter Reed Army Medical
Center that has interesting pathological specimens if you are so
inclined. It has preserved specimens of arms and legs, by the way,
so it relates somewhat to the original question. Never heard of anything
similar run by the Public Health Service, though.

The Gaelic Mod is a festival involving music, dance, poetry and other
artistic performances, talking place in many venues around a town with
at least some recent Gaelic tradition.  There are various associated
events, and a lot of prizes given out.  Your travel agent should
be able to find the place and date of the next one.  I've been to
the Orkney Folk Festival, last May in Stromness, and it was
excellent.  It went days and evenings from Thursday through Sunday,
in many locations including one of the outer islands, and finished
with a four-hour concert in Stromness which included all the bands.
The were Orkeny, mainland Scottish, Irish, and even a Danish
band (the hit of the festival, in fact).  Only the beer was
less than tops.

In June, Kirkwall, Orkeny hosts the St. Magnus festival, which is
more formal and has plays, a broad mixture of music, poetry, etc.

STATE DEPARTMENT TRAVEL ADVISORY - Bahamas
============================================================
Bahamas - Caution
 August 27, 1992

While the Bahamas were spared the brunt of Hurricane Andrew, the
Department of State has authorized the voluntary departure of
non-essential employees and dependents of U.S. government personnel
from the Bahamas because of the potential for supply shortages and
the disruption of essential services.

Commercial air travel from the Bahamas is heavily booked at this
time.  Any U.S. citizens contemplating travel to or from the Bahamas
should consider deferring that travel until they are able to confirm
their travel and lodging arrangements.

U.S. citizens who are currently in the Bahamas should follow the
instructions of local officials in the wake of the storm.

American citizen residents and tourists who wish to contact the
U.S. Embassy in Nassau can reach the Embassy at the following
number:  322-1181.
