  • Rocky Mountaineer

    By Barbara Redding Verified| fyi50plus@ As the Rocky Mountaineer train from Vancouver slowly gathered speed, I sank into my plush window seat. I couldn’t wait to be surrounded by the pristine rivers, alpine peaks, and native wildlife of Western Canada. What I didn’t anticipate was the culinary adventure ahead. Within minutes, I was devouring Eggs Benedict with Canadian back bacon. My three-course lunch later that day featured Dungeness crab ravioli and generous pours of Jackson-Triggs wines.

  • An Off-Beat Beauty Near Baltic Sea

    By Barbara Redding Verified| Columbus Ledger-Enquirer Verified The writer was hosted.

Szczecin (pronounced shteh-cheen) may not be a well-known tourist destination-yet.
