History abounds in Prague, from the famous church St. Vitus to the even more famous Old Town Clock to the lonely grave of the freedom fighter buried near Loretto Chapel.

Prague is a city of many, many secrets. And the pleasure of a visit is finding some of them. Indeed Prague has been called a place of the imagination.

The Andersons have shown readers various travel destinations around the world, but how do they go about planning such trips?

At racing school the best classroom is the car, where you learn the mechanics through correcting past mistakes.

At the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving, students learn skills that can help them avoid accidents in the real world.

The excavated ships dominate the floor of the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo, but they are not the only artifacts there showing how these people lived and died.

In the 19th century Norway had the greatest concentration of lepers in Europe. Bergen's Leprosy Museum reveals what life was like for those afflicted, plus the city is home to Hansen, who found the microorganism that caused the disease.

On the last stop of their Norwegian cruise, the Andersons explore Bergen: a city both visitors and residents can't help but brag about.

A cruise with Hurtigruten down the "Long Coast" of Norway surely gives passengers a flash of insight. Cruise line success follows the adage, "location, location, location," and Norway has the location!

Sailing Norway's long coast is a glance at the real Norwegian soul.

Historic Trondheim - once the capital of Norway - is located at the mouth of a river and surrounded by mountain peaks. And it has 1,000 years of history.

Just south of the Polar Circle, the Andersons stop at two lovey villages on Norway's coast.

The Andersons are now in island-and-fjord country with a thick fog, the Lofoten Islands and an ice bar for spirits.

Harstad is the largest town in Norway's Versteralen Islands with history that goes back to the Stone Ages.

The Andersons take a nighttime snowmobile ride on one of the many stops up Norway's coast in hopes of seeing the Aurora Borealis.

The Andersons get lost in Vardo, Norway and learn a little from the locals on their hunt for the Aurora Borealis.

The Andersons decided against spending the night in the Snow Hotel in Kirkenes, Norway, but they went ice crabbing and caught the tail end of the Aurora Borealis.

Norway is a laid-back, no-nonsense uncomplicated new country - new compared to the rest of Europe. It also, arguably, has the highest standard of living in Europe with a trust for its future generations.

Off-roading lessons could make you a better driver, teaching you how to drive down a littered road and proper driving techniques.

The medical profession is, arguably, the only one that requires or encourages its members to go back to school. But there are schools out there that may be more fun and equally useful: driving schools.

Patagonia's ice field is second only to the ice mass in Antarctica, and it has 365 glaciers to visit.

Over the next few months, San Diego will be home to a number of medical conventions. If you're going, here's what you can do to fully enjoy the trip.

A new group of enthusiasts is apparently entering the arena of sports: adults, even retirees, whose careers didn't ever give them enough time to learn a sport - but now they have both the time and the money

Sometimes it's easier to admire the records of athletes when it's a sport the spectators can more readily play, such as tennis, golf and swimming.

The history of sports in this country is the history of America. Some sports enthusiasts say when they go they are entering shrines to their heritage and magnificent moments that may have impacted their own lives.

People travel for their own reasons. Americans probably go to Europe because, as critics say, we're still Euro-centric. We are fascinated by that continent's history.

Marquesas is a dramatic, untamed land that must delight yacht-owners filled with communities that enjoy life. It's a place that has not forgotten its history.

On the island of Hiva Oa two famous men who lived very different lives are buried there: the artist Paul Gauguin, who infuriated local priests, and poet and songwriter Jacques Brel, who flew sick children to the hospital on another island.

Northeast of Tahiti is the island of Ua Pou, one of the 12 Marquesa Islands. Here, the residents are simply content to enjoy the ocean and the beauty of where they live.

There's more than history to this city of 34 museums. For one thing, it has the greatest number of free attractions than any city in the United States other than Washington, D.C.
