Are These Burgs The Best To Visit In 2017?


Lonely Planet recently voted these cities (in rank order) as the ten best in the world to visit in 2017.

Bordeaux, France; Cape Town, South Africa; Los Angeles USA; Merida, Mexico; Ohrid, Macedonia; Pistoia, Italy; Seoul, South Korea; Lisbon, Portugal; Moscow, Russia; and Portland OR USA.

Do you agree? We’re a bit puzzled by the choices, especially a couple of cities on the list we’ve rarely, if ever, heard about before. Also, the survey left out such senior traveler favorites as Virginville, Podunk, Loveladies, Intercourse, Bird-in-Hand and, of course, Punkeydoodles Corners.
Washington DC: Sneak Into International Spy Museum PDF Print E-mail


Are you following all the fuss about accused spy Edward Snowden running all over the world looking for a place to hide from Uncle Sam? If so, consider getting more familiar with the espionage business on your next visit to the nation’s capital city.

The current attraction at the International Spy Museum,“Spy in the City”, is an interactive adventure. It’s touted as put together by former spies who now serve as consultants to the museum. Kids love it, because it involves participating in simulated assignments, such as catching a dastardly secret agent attempting to peddle secrets to foreign spies. Poor Snowden! He can’t get a break anywhere.

The museum is at 800 F St NW, Washington, DC 20004. Tickets for adults are $20, seniors/cops/military are $16, kids age 7 to all are $15, and age 6 and under can sneak in for free. For more information, hours and tickets, go to www.spymuseum.org.
