Suddenly summer is on the horizon and your imagination is fired to take a trip to unknown country. Here is the most important tip to maximize your enjoyment of the trip. Whatever else you pack, be sure to pack your patience and sense of humor. Even on the most meticulously organized trips, something will go wrong. Planes will be delayed, buses will break down, museums will close mysteriously, fellow travelers will oversleep or even worse: they will snore in the next tentJ).
When these happen, you can choose to get angry and make a fuss -- or you can enjoy the unexpected. Enjoy! Break your bread and cheese and share them and admire the cattle grazing in the meadows while the bus driver repairs the bus. Walk right by that uncooperative museum and find sidewalk seat at the corner café, and enjoy the singing fountains. And as for your tour mate- study your surroundings more closely -- you may be rewarded with a rare scene of timeworn temple you never would have seen if you hadn't had to wait or slept.
