Long airport layovers are a travel downer. Amsterdam?s Schiphol Airport makes the wait more pleasant by teaming with the Rijksmuseum to offer travelers some 16th century Dutch eye candy. “Thanks to Rembrandt” is a free public exhibit that features samples of work from Rubens, Johannes Vermeer, Hans Bollongier and even Rembrandt himself. www.frakesproductions.com

New years day, 2009 will find me back in the Holy Land. I will be documenting the spiritual journey of seven American Christians as they visit various sites in and around Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Ramallah.
You can visit our team web site: 3 Faiths, 2, Countries, 1 Peace for more information, blog posts, photos and video clips as we travel. Kathleen Adam, leader of the group asked me to come along. Kathleen is a student at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. This pilgrimage is part of her seminary program. The recorded footage will also be used to cut together a Spiritual Journey segment for 30 Good Minutes, on WTTW Channel 11 (PBS) in Chicago.
