Welcome to the August 2004 issue of The Traveler! We're back in our San Francisco offices this month after our first ever wildlife safari in northern Botswana and Zimbabwe. Well, at least our bodies are back, but some of us have left our hearts in Botswana! You can catch up with The Traveler in Africa in his African Diary or capture the entire experience with African Postlude. Find out why our hearts aren't yet back in San Francisco! But we've got a lot of ground to cover this month, so let's dig in. We'll start with our Feature Articles. This month we explore a hidden Abbey in the hills of Tuscany, a holistic rest at a unique hotel in Austria, an Indian Palace turned five-star hotel, and finally Caracas, the Venezuelan capital. Our Travel Writing Pick-of-the-Month features Ayun Halliday's personal and often hilarious account of her world travel adventures with No Touch Monkey. Another autumn is nearly upon us, and the experts are predicting a banner year for fall color in North America. We've updated our Fall Color page with our second annual Fall Color Special. And finally we have our top choices this month for our Travel Ideas, Bargains, and Resources section full of the latest travel news, tips, and deals. Enjoy!

Adventure is always best accompanied with a good laugh. Halliday delivers both with No Touch Monkey: And Other Travel Lessons Learned Too Late (Adventura Books Series). Fall
