It's another Cocktail Hour at The World on Wheels for your Day of Rest. For those hot days in the sun, we have the perfect drink. The fruity rum drink, a Bahama Mama:http://tinyurl.com/23m5t2z

I just read the Cairo blog and Tripatini's question below, which was, "How big a part of the travel experience is the cuisine for you?"
This is a good question. The food is usually not a big part of traveling for me (although I love desserts!), but years ago we had mushroom soup in a local cafe in Padua, near Venice. I make mushroom soup with cream, but this one just had mushrooms, and more kinds of mushrooms than I had ever imagined. The soup was served in the shell of a round loaf of bread, and later we ate the bread until we were stuffed. This was the best soup I have ever eaten, and I would return to Padua for it.

Food is a major component of any trip. I remember a good restaurant as much as I do a great beach or an amazing sight.

Let's be honest here.

Member Melissa Solin writes in her blog post on her trip Cairo that her favorite experience was the traditional Egyptian meal. In a country with pyramids, ruins, museums, and fascinating culture, that's a pretty strong statement (must've been one heck of a meal!).

How "big" a part of the travel experience is the cuisine for you? Have you ever found yourself planning a trip because you yearn for Italian gelato? Or the most authentic pad thai?

There's no shame, we all love food in this group, let's 'fess up!

That will come with the barbecue later!

If "a white ine that will hold uyp to a really low temp" try an inexpensive Pinot Gris from Oregon, Pinot Grigio from Italy, Sauvignon Blanc from California, a rosé from Spain or France's mediterranean, etc. But really, what you need is not a glass of wine but a bottle of really cold beer.

Sitting in a bucket of ice for about 4 hours. I realize this isn't really the proper temperature for it but on a really hot day like today, that's what I'm looking for...a white wine that will hold up to a really low temp.
