Cancun's Dark Half
- Bad Breaks: Make a Run For the Border
By Erin Murray
So the hotel didn't
have any towels and the toilet wouldn't flush. Big deal. It was my first
trip and I was in exotic Cancun, Mexico. A leisurely week of debauchery
awaited me, and these non-luxurious conditions weren't going to impede
my fun.
European
Discovery - Trip
Provides Samples of Countries Abroad
By Chris Brodkin
Traveling to Europe is not new -- even the Griswalds murmured "Oui,
oui" in the '80s. Yet it seems that international diversity among young
adults is high on their "new experiences" list.

Bad Breaks: The Sky Was Crying, and So Was I
By
Brian Boardman
It all
began with the cab ride to the airport. I was on my way to Augusta,
Ga., from Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., to catch up with
the rest of my crew teammates who had left by way of bus the night before.
I was looking forward to a good Spring Break of warm Georgia weather
and hard workouts. My bags were packed, and I was ready for the vacation
of my life.

Secret Paradise
By
Kathleen Murray
You know
how the song goes: "...Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go...."
But what the Beach Boys neglected to promote was the other sun haven
of Jamaica -- Negril.

Kerby Derby - Decadent and Depraved
by
Matt Rhodes
It's already
getting to be that time. The pungent stench of bourbon and horse manure
can be detected in the air. Plans must be made, mint juleps must be
concocted, the first Saturday in May ain't that far away. This year
you have to make it to the Derby.
New
Orleans
by Rita Cook
When I think of New
Orleans my mind automatically hears the many sounds of the blues and
jazz musicians of bygone era's. The music of New Orleans echoes and
rolls as if I am actually standing there on Bourbon Street amid a crowd
of Mardi Gras onlookers and hot dog vendors. But that's not all New
Orleans has to offer.
Oui,
Oui...We are Americans
- When in France, Don't Do as the French Do
By
Benoit Denizet-Lewis
It is commonly accepted
-- even expected -- that when in Rome, you ought to at least try to
do as the Romans do. Italians view attempts at emulation to be complimentary,
and, in this regard, they could not be more different than their neighbors
to the north-west, the French.

By Rita Cook
Sedona

world. This tiny town is considered one of the most powerful energy
spots on this planet, loaded with vortices, both magnetic and electrical.
Texas
Boasts More Than the Alamo - Austin's South by Southwest Festival
Simply a Paradise
By Matt Rhodes
Last year, the Ides
of March and spring upon us, two friends and I made a potentially dangerous
decision. As the rich kids jetted for Jamaica and Cancun, and the cheesy
kids loudly skidded toward Daytona and Panama City, my pals and I piled
spring dreams into the heavenly green Subaru station wagon and made
a mad dash for Austin, Texas.

by Andy Pierce
What do spaceships,
a belch of fire, Tokyo and the Pacific Ocean have in common?
