March/April 1996
Top Stories:
Monterey
- Moody Blue
The Monterey Bay Aquarium's new Outer Bay wing gets
you 50 miles out and 300 feet down - without getting you wet.
Detroit
- Motown Celebrates
People had built a car here and a car there before,
but no one had a production run of identical cars. It was the birth
of Americas car industry, and a hundred years later, Detroit-that
synonym for the car industry-is taking note.
Grape
Expectations
Going to wine country in California is synonymous
with much more than tasting wine. From spring through late fall,
it means a series of spirited affairs that mingle every pleasure
from dancing and fine dining to art appreciation, nature-loving,
and whale-watching. Events range from the uppercrust charity auction
of Napa Valley to homespun fun along Mendocino's coast.
Portugal
- River of Sweet Wine
In recent years the wild waters of Rio Douro have
been stilled by dams, and the river is more like a series of slender
lakes. This river through northern Portugal's port wine region is
perfect for kayaking, for beginers or for lazy longtime paddlers
nourishing a streak of hedonism.
