Scotland in 1983. It was
not well planned and I never
saw so many sheep in my life. I also vowed never
to drive on the “wrong” side of the road again.
So I enjoyed reading “The Great Scottish Road
Trip” (Fall 2018)—about your writer’s well-planned
journey. You really have to do your homework, and
have someone fill you in on the customs, culture
and mores of the country.

“the Great ScottISh road trIp” was
another way
to look at Scotland. Two years ago, I took a coach
tour with CAA to England and Scotland, so I
recognized most of the places the family in the
article visited—but what a wonderful way to see
Scotland and get your feet right on the ground.
I so enjoyed the story.

I hope the article title “Cuba Libre”
(Fall 2018) refers to the cocktail,
because in no way can Cuba
be considered free. It’s a one-

I couldn’t help but notice
that your travel instructions
to Fargo, North Dakota
(“North of Normal”,
Fall 2018) seemed odd.
I believe it would take
more like four hours to get
to Fargo from Winnipeg,
and should you take
Route 59, you would travel
west—not east—from
Detroit Lakes. Otherwise,
I do love all the beautiful
pictures in the magazine
and how you highlight our
wonderful country!

Editor’s note: Thanks,
Angela. You’re correct.
Our compass must’ve
been upside down when
we wrote the direction to
Fargo from Detroit Lakes.

able to publish without being

Cuban people are wonderful, and
travel to Cuba by tourists is a
legitimate activity—as is CAA

relations with the Cuban tourism
industry. But let’s not imply that
Cuba is somehow a free country.

Editor’s note: Thank you, Ostap,
for your thoughtful note. Our
headline was meant to play on
the article’s theme of off-resort
Cuban travel (i.e. you’re “free
to roam”), but we can see how
the title could be interpreted
differently. It is certainly never our
intent to minimize the political
challenges of any destination
profiled in the magazine.
