Go west to Vancouver Island's rugged west coast and the crashing waves at Chesterman Beach. There, near Tofino, British Columbia, you will discover the acclaimed eco-resort ~ The Wickaninnish Inn.

| Travel Tale Diary from Doha ~ We're Off On The Road To Morocco! by Linda S. Christensen WJ is thrilled to share segments of "Diary from Doha" by Linda S. Christensen. Linda is a court reporter travelling the world covering major tennis & golf tournaments. This is the second installment from Linda's recent visit to Doha, Qatar. | | Doha - Souq Waqif | I keep hearing Bing and Bob singing in my head, "We're off on the Road to Morocco." I am right in the heart of all things camel and oasis and palm trees and sand.
I had one of those adventures yesterday that cannot possibly be planned, cannot possibly be forced... it just happens. And while it is happening, one stops to think, Oh, my goodness. It is one of the best days of my life. Click here to read more. |

Travel Tale A Great Gal-loping Getaway by Jane Cassie | | Great Gal-loping Getaway! | It's been a few years since I've straddled a saddle. And though my plump rump will likely survive the trot, I'm not so sure about the rest of my boomer-aged body. Do I still have enough core power to ride the range? Can I hang on tight when my steed picks up speed? My trepidation mounts (pardon the pun) as the herd of horses is corralled into the ring. With hoofs pounding and mud flying, they stampede through the gate and charge closer to the raised podium where I stand - or shake - in my boots. The only consolation is that the other two women who have joined me on this weekend retreat are shaking even more. Click here to read more.
