1	Saturday, 4/17/27	About Rotterdam Modern Rotterdam is often referred to as a "wonder", because of its amazing Phoenix-like revival after bombs had virtually flattened Rotterdam on May 14, 1940.

5	Wednesday, 4/21/27	About Casablanca Catch the flavor of Casablanca in the open spice markets and herb alist shops on the Quarter Balilida in New Medina. A delightful blending of French and Moroccan cultures is found in street bazaars where artisans and enchanters barter their crafts a mere stone´s throw from the hushed secret gardens of the Royal Palace. Casablanca Attractions Casablanca's beaches are found to the east of the city along the Corniche. This is a very trendy area with four-star hotels, restaurants and bars. Casablanca, Morocco	6:00am	7:00pm
6	Thursday, 4/22/27	About Agadir In 1505 the tiny village of Agadir made its first mark on history. The Portuguese set up a trading post there, defended by the Santa Cruz fortress on Cap de Gue. Although a profitable endeavor, their stay was brief, as in 1541 they were ejected by the founder of the Saadian dynasty. A golden age then followed for Agadir, with ships arriving every day to take on cargos of sugar cane, dates, wax skins, oils, spices and gold. However, over the years Agadir went into decline and in 1960 it was destroyed by an earthquake. Today, Agadir has been reborn as a holiday capital. Constructed away from high risk areas using anti-seismic techniques, Agadir is an engaging town. The dormant white of its sculptural buildings is contrasted by the multi-colored flowers that adorn its tranquil gardens. Vacationers drink in the sea air, sitting at tables on the cafe terraces or strolling around the bazaars. While a little further away there is all the bustling activity surrounding the most important fishing port in Morocco, with its fleet of spruce trawlers bobbing up and down on the Atlantic swell. Agadir, Morocco	12:00pm	6:00pm
7	Friday, 4/23/27	About Arrecife Lanzarote is perhaps the most unique among the Canary Islands, astounding visitors with its amazing landscapes. Due to a massive volcanic eruption in 1730 that lasted for six years, one third of the island was covered by a sea of lava. In 1824, a new volcano thrust out of the earth's crust and once again molten lava poured over a good part of Lanzarote, leaving a lunar landscape of more than a hundred craters, lava fields, and layers of cinders and pebbles. Dromedaries found here add to this bizarre scenery. Arrecife, the capital of Lanzarote, is situated on the island's eastern coast. Blackened lava and yellow sands provide a dramatic backdrop. Home to the archipelago's largest fishing fleet, the harbor is packed with boats. While Arrecife itself has little to offer beyond a modern art museum, it provides an excellent starting point for exploration into the fascinating interior. Especially a trip to the Fire Mountains should not be missed. Arrecife Attractions It is impossible to mention Lanzarote without mentioning at the same time the island�s most famous son, Cesar Manrique. As an artist and architect, he sought to construct buildings as extended natural forms. He began to paint abstract canvases, which made their way to the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Some of his masterworks on Lanzarote include the Cactus Garden and Los Jameos del Agua, where within the grotto�s lava formations Manrique incorporated a concert cave, a restaurant and a bar. His home, donated to the people of Lanzarote, is now known as the Fundacion Cesar Manrique. The living room has been transformed into a gallery displaying a private collection of his works. Arrecife Activities Guanapay Castle - The remains of this castle, built in the 16th century, stand on the edge of a volcano. From the summit, there is a vast panorama including Teguise, Lanzarote's former capital, and Graciosa Island on the northern horizon. Arrecife, Spain	10:00am	6:00pm

14	Friday, 4/30/27	About London/Dover Restless, enduring and wonderful, London is Europe's largest city. And surely, if you have the choice to visit only two or three cities of the world in your lifetime, by all means make one of them London. The Romans started it all. The city they developed was "the square mile," - and Londoners still hunt for Roman relics in the Thames. History is everywhere you look in London, yet today the city is as modern and metropolitan as any city on earth. By day, London is buzzing with the frenetic pace of commerce not even Dickens could have imagined. By night, the excitement and glitter of theatres, cinemas, pubs and restaurants beckons throngs of travellers from around the world. But there is another London, a peaceful London of cool museums, quiet tea rooms, immaculate gardens and hushed churches. There is Royal London - ancient pageantry in a modern kingdom - with its palaces, pomp and precise manoeuvres at the Changing of the Guard. And there's outrageous London, the urban gathering ground for Cockney pitchmen, "fringe" theatre and the city's youth, with their own distinctive style. London, this extraordinary city of contrasts, holds a stunning abundance of hidden-round-the-corner surprises. You owe it to yourself to explore them all. Here, then, is the London you'll come to know and remember. London/Dover, United Kingdom	7:00am	--
