		<title>Independence Hall:  Deal or No Deal?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The US National Park Service protects and promotes nearly 400 sites.  At most locations visitors pay an admission fee. However, entrance to Independence Historic Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania remains free. That&#8217;s a good deal because the Park includes numerous attractions like Carpenter&#8217;s Hall, Franklin Court, Federal Reserve Bank, the Liberty Bell and the famed Independence [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Visit to Sainte-Chapelle in Paris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Took three trips to Paris for me to finally get into Sainte Chapelle (sant-shah-pel&#8217;), but worth the wait.

		<title>Stepping Backward and Leaping Forward</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sending Your Kid to College I&#8217;d been through this three times before, but needed to gather my inner strength to approach the process again. The act of matriculating a child into college calls for foresight and patience, and guarantees the addition of more than a few gray hairs. Guidance counselors usually push teens to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Friday Night Feeding of Lions and Tigers &#8211; No Bears</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Catty Shack, Jacksonville, Florida I wasn&#8217;t quite sure what to expect of a place named The Catty Shack.  Visions of Bill Murray, moles and golf courses came to mind, but the spelling is &#8216;catty&#8217; not &#8216;caddy&#8217; shack. And its not about gossip. The Catty Shack is a rescue center for large cats like lions, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recalling and Recommending Edinburgh’s Military Tattoo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Imagine one thousand performers crammed elbow to elbow in a stadium or, in this case, the Castle Esplanade. Columns and columns of bagpipers, drummers, band members and dancers squeeze together for the grand finale.  The audience roars and claps their approval, then a hush falls over the crowd. Those seated reach out and grab hands [...]]]></description>
