Zinio: The Mobile Newsstand for iPhone and iPod touch
| One of the things I really enjoy is watching
a movie that takes place somewhere I have traveled. It is really neat to
watch a movie and be able to say, "I ate in that restaurant," or "I walked
down that street."

Commentaries
In
Siberia Acclaimed British author Colin Thubron explores one of the world's
least-known areas. This is a fascinating look at an area of our world that
is rich with history and culture. And, an area most of us know very little
about.
Mali
Blues This West Africa odyssey takes you from Senegal to Mauritania to the Malinese blues singer Boubacar
Traore. A captivating portrait of current African culture!
On Mexican
Time Join novelist Tony Cohan and his wife as they leave their
high-profile lives of L.A. on what began as a brief vacation to San Miguel de
Allende.
They fell in love with the place, left their hotel room, rented a cottage, and eventually
bought a 250-year-old hacienda which was quite a bit more than just your average
"fixer upper."

Music - Sheet Music - CD's
I am a singer and also enjoy music of all kinds. I have links to the following
locations where you can find sheet music, song books and CDs on all subjects,
including travel. Like a copy of "I Left My Heart in San Francisco?" you can
find one at
Sheet Music Plus. I use them myself to purchase my music and have
found them to be very good to work with. Just use the search box below. Also,
when you shop and purchase at
Sheet Music Plus, you help support Getting
Away and keep the site free! Please use the link or the search box to buy sheet music, songbooks and guitar tabs from
Sheet Music Plus. They have fast shipping, low prices and no hassle returns.
Thanks, Jim.
