Travel

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrowmindedness...and many of our people need it solely on these accounts.”
- Mark Twain

Hey everybody! The SAS Advent calendar is back!

If you’re jonesin’ to travel to Europe next year, just go their Web site and enter your email address. Every day in December, SAS will put tickets to one European destination on super-sale and send you a link to the advent calendar to find out which city it is. You have that day to decide if that’s the city you’d like to go to and book your tickets. If you don’t want to go to that particular city, just wait until tomorrow.

Last year Nick and I bought RT tickets to Manchester, England for $300 ea. It looks like prices are about the same this year.

Skiing in Switzerland, anyone? How about a shopping trip to Milan?
