Michael Brein's Travel Tales Monthly Bookazine Issue No. 9 for March 2015 contains among the best travel stories from Michael's huge collection of about 10,000 travel tales that he has gathered in interviews with nearly 1,750 world travelers and adventurers during his four decades of travel to more than 125 countries throughout the world. This issue is all about travel tales of humor: the funniest travel stories so far! Why not laugh yourself silly with this collection of funny, hilarious, gut-wrenching, LOL (laugh out loud) travel humor. Oh yeah, we do our fair share of ridiculous, raucous, belly-achingly funny things when we travel. And, I ask you: is this NOT one of the most important goals of travel-to laugh ourselves stupid? Thank God, the funny happens more than the horrific; the ludicrous more than the lame-travel is never boring and never lacking in wonderful, memorable funny causes célèbre that stay with us for the rest of our lives. Whether falling through someone's roof on a horse in Afghanistan; whether getting soaked by taunting the 'fountain gods' on a lawn at a castle; whether being thrown out of a restaurant in Buenos Aires for dancing on the tops of tables; whether chilling your wine in a bidet, the funniest travel moments that make you laugh are a welcome counter to those rare horrible travel events that make you cry. And it is also these memorable stories that remain with us, isn't it, after all is said and done, in our travels? Feel free to laugh out loud with these travel tales of humor presented here in this current issue of Travel Tales Monthly. For many people, life is all about getting laid, lauded or loaded, but for many of us, it is more about sampling the lives, the cultures, the oddities, the sights, the sounds, the foods, the drinks, and the humor of the peoples of other lands. For me, it is all of the above, but it is also about laughter. I like to laugh much of the time, and probably would ALL the time if I could. Laughing abroad is

A striking photograph on the front - and on the back, a compelling description that explains why this is an essential trip for any tourist or resident. Some weekends involve iconic road trips, some trips are unknown even to longtime residents, and some are once-a-year events such as holiday weekends or Christmas and New Year's events. The text includes descriptions of what, when, where, and how - as well as URLs, toll-free numbers, basic directions, and enough information to Google the rest. Most important, each card includes the why. * Destinations range from famous and iconic to unusual or unique * Cards are categorized for Arts & Culture, Events, Recreation/Sports, and Food & Drink. * 6 icons indicate whether the destination is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, accessible by mass transit or bike, handicap-accessible, and free or inexpensive.

No amount of fog can hold San Francisco down San Francisco's colorful activity echoes around its steep hills and sweeps through its valleys. From inspired bread-making at Tartine, to the freshly sprayed street murals of the Mission's Clarion Alley, the always loud and sparkly clubs of the Castro, and SOMA's emerging microbreweries, San Francisco is always packed with flavor and filled with energy. Whether it's pushing the boundaries of public nudity, making strides for gender equality, or baking up food fads, San Francisco is at the forefront of innovation, cradled in the multicultural history of the American west. In this guide you will:-Eat so many burritos in the Mission you'll need an extra seat on the flight home-Hang like a beatnik in North Beach-Drink the most delicious fussy cocktails in SOMA-Leather-bind your tender bits at the Folsom Street Fair-Break some (sourdough) bread at Fisherman's Wharf-and more!
