Who would like to go on a trip?

The rain and wind have returned, the dead salmon smell is wafting through the aisles of the library, and it's the start of another Ketchikan winter. What better time to start dreaming of travels to foreign lands and warmer climes? Perhaps you might even be in the lucky position of planning an actual trip. Well, we've just gotten 16 new DVDs to help you plan your vacation, or to just while away a few dark winter hours. Most of the videos are from the Globe Trekker television series, with a rotating slate of tour guides. Ian Wright is the funniest, although I wouldn't want to travel with him, and Justine Shapiro is a little whiny. But they cover a vast range of things to see and do in each country, and they pay a lot of attention to eating and shopping (everybody's favorite activities when they travel!).
Perhaps there's a destination here that's just right for you:
