					<title>My Favorite Hole</title>
					<description><![CDATA[It may be short&#8212;only 290 yards from The back tee to the front edge of the green&#8212;but the tenth at Riviera Country Club is easily the best drivable par four I&#8217;ve ever played. It&#8217;s the highlight of what I consider a brilliant course. Riviera reminds me of home in Cape Town, South Africa: The grass is kikuyu, and it&#8217;s lined with tall blue- and red-gum eucalyptus trees. I look forward to playing it every year during the L.A. Open. From the tee on ten, the green is  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>The World&#8217;s Best Free Stuff</title>
					<description><![CDATA[A few years ago, Canadians Terry and Carole Baker vacationed in St. Genis, France and stayed in a place with a kitchen, washer/dryer, and a balcony overlooking the Jura Mountains. They&#8217;ve also stayed in a 4,000-square-foot, 18 th -floor condo in Penang, Malaysia and in a sprawling, amenity-laden spot in Mesa, Arizona. And next August they&#8217;re spending five weeks in a cozy cottage in Stirling, Scotland. Cost of their accommodations? $0. The Bakers had discovered one of the  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>20 Perfect Summer Getaways</title>
					<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I had hoped to visit a friend in Africa this summer,&#8221; admits Susan McCombs, of Kensington, California . &#8220;But with recent increases in fuel and ticket prices, I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;ll ever get there.&#8221; For Kathleen Kamerick of Iowa City, Iowa, &#8220;Flying is simply too much of a hassle.&#8221; Instead, she and her husband will hit the road this summer, with stops planned at museums, small towns, and national parks they&#8217;ve never been to before.  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Strangest Jobs in the Travel Industry</title>
					<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve ever harbored dreams of breaking into the travel business but weren&#8217;t sure how to find your niche, here&#8217;s a tip: invest in a falcon. We searched the globe for the most offbeat jobs in the travel industry, and strangely enough, falconers and their birds of prey are some of the biggest clutch players of the travel world. A falconer in Santa Barbara, for instance, keeps pesky seagulls from invading the Four Seasons &#8217; pool. Falconers are also working hard in  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Editor&#8217;s Note | 07.08</title>
					<description><![CDATA[It looks like this will be America&#8217;s summer. I say &#8220;looks&#8221; because I am writing these words in mid-May as my editors and I close Travel+Leisure &#8217;s July issue, unable to predict newspaper headlines, surveys, or charts. Among the indicators I rely on: the impressive number of proposals from T+L&#8217;s globe-trotting contributors, who are setting their sights on U.S. destinations; the downward spiral of the dollar, which has edged even affordable European summer  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>World&#8217;s Worst Cultural Mistakes</title>
					<description><![CDATA[It seemed simple: beat the bitter March temperatures&#8212;and my jet lag&#8212;by visiting the Finnish sauna at the luxurious Hotel Kamp in Helsinki . Just when I felt myself begin to relax, two naked men opened the glass door and stood staring at me, seemingly dumbstruck. Sure, my bathing suit was soaked in sweat and my legs streaked in magazine ink, but since it was my first visit to Finland , I didn&#8217;t understand the open jaws. Later, my Finnish friend erupted in peals of laughter:  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>The World&#8217;s Strangest Animals</title>
					<description><![CDATA[While hiking through the flat savannah lands of western Brazil, you emerge from some shade trees and suddenly find yourself just yards away from the most outlandish creature you&#8217;ve ever seen. Lumbering forward on its front knuckles, its monstrous bushy tail sweeping the ground, the animal swings its long, bottle-shaped head from side to side. As you watch, it scratches open a termite mound, roots around with its snout, and then propels a two-foot-long tongue to flick up insects.  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Bollywood Star Guide to Bombay</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Lights flash as the door to a dark sedan opens in front of a low-lit door. The crowd parts as the door opens, revealing the latest &#8220;it&#8221; couple shrouded with dark sunglasses and shawls. They hurry past photographers and fans into the safety and super-exclusivity of the lounge. Inside, heads turn as they make their way to the bar, enjoying the deep rumble coming from the DJ booth. It sounds like a scene ripped from the pages of Us Weekly , except rather than Brad and Angelina ,  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>Gas-Saving Road Trip Tips</title>
					<description><![CDATA[Forget the &#8220;stay-cation.&#8221; Sure, gas is over $4 a gallon. But that doesn&#8217;t mean you have to give up your summer road trip. I&#8217;m clocking nearly 4,000 miles a month on a 3-year, 100,000-mile working road trip through the Western Hemisphere . It&#8217;s also my celebration of one of America&#8217;s greatest travel traditions&#8212;and I&#8217;m not about to let horrifyingly high fuel prices stop me. Sure, I think twice (or even three times) before turning my truck down an  &#8230;]]></description>

					<title>10 Scariest Thrill Rides on the Planet</title>
					<description><![CDATA[If your idea of a perfect summer day involves an adrenaline-infused rush from a truly frightening ride, skip the kiddie parks this year. The Matterhorn at Disneyland and Space Mountain at Disney World are both great when you&#8217;re 12, but they won&#8217;t make you weak at the knees. Instead, we recommend trying a different sort of ride&#8212;the kind with G force that will knock you silly and massive free-fall drops that will have you involuntarily laughing and praying for your life.
