Lots of Tips from our Recent NYC Trip

more> Chanukah in Europe
From Lee MacCallum: "Every year it seems articles appear with advice on how to best spend Christmas in Europe (i.e. where to find Christmas markets, where to see nativity scenes etc). I'm interested in observing Chanukah on the continent. Does anyone have tips on events, activities and attractions related to that holiday."
more> Nervous About Terrorist Threats for Italy
From Yolanda Oglesby: "I don't mean to be paranoid, but I am feeling just a tad uncomfortable with the recent threats. We go in September. Anyone else out there feeling the same?"
more> Fair-Skinned Tourists Fearful of Maui Sun
From Bonny G: "My hubby and I will be heading to Maui for the first time in mid-October. Both of us are fair skinned, and we don't want our vacation ruined by not respecting the Maui sun. Can anyone recommend any must-have 'Maui tested' sunblock products (waterproof or otherwise) that can be found on the mainland? And will having a bit of base tan help keep us from being totally scorched, or is this just a myth? All Maui sun survival tips appreciated!"
more> Legs Red and Swollen when I Arrived Home
From Edith Sayles: "I was traveling in Spain, France and Belgium for two weeks recently. When I left for the airport in Brussels to return home, I was fine and felt great. The flight was comfortable with a roomy bulkhead seat. Strangely, when I arrived home, I noticed that my knee and ankle of my right leg was very swollen and red. My left leg was too, but to a lesser extent. It was painful like I had a bad sunburn, but I didn't have any sunburn. The next day, I went to the nurse at work. She immediately sent me to the emergency room at a local hospital."
