London, Paris, Amsterdan

LONDON
Program Description: 

London's rich brew of people watching, market browsing, and sight-seeing
is irresistible.  Rick Steves takes time to relax in a pub, stroll
through a bustling street market, join a walking tour and try his hand at
brass rubbing.  It's a natural place also, to pay attention to tips
on travel photography.  Side trips to "salty" Greenwich and
gothic Salsbury offer refreshing, detailed  glimpses into Britain's
past.

TIPS
on English idioms and taking pictures.




PARIS Program Description:

It's a merry but efficient project, travel-testing public transportation
in Paris, the City of Light. Rick Steves leads viewers into the gothic Splendor
of Sainte-Chapelle, the nightlife of Monmartre, the vitality of the Left
Bank and the artsy ambience of the Rodin Museum.  Then, we look at
some sobering history at Napoleon's tomb and military museum. For a break,
we join local Parisians at a turn of the century-style restaurant. 
A great side trip to Chateau Chantilly caps a fairly hassle-free, relaxing
and exciting few days in Paris.

TIPS on using public transportation and
beating the language barrier.
