Designed specifically to meet the needs of active women travelers, AdventureWomen is on a new journey. Wineland Trio, comprised of Wineland-Thomson Adventures Inc. president Judi Wineland and her daughters Erica Landerson and Nicole Wineland-Thomson Quinones, recently acquired the company. Judi Wineland knows how to see the world: She was the creator of Overseas Adventure Travel in 1978, and went on to found Thomson Safaris, Thomson Family Adventures and Thompson Treks with her husband Rick Thomson.
Coming up in 2017, trip itineraries include Nepal Trekking in the Himalayas with a low-altitude, lodge-based trek that includes river rafting; France: Walking the Loire Valley, with hikes through the French countryside and wine tastings; Egypt and Jordan: Wonders of the World, with a Nile River cruise and visits to monumental archaeological sites; and Alaska: A Bear Viewing and Wilderness Odyssey, with an exhilarating tour into the heart of grizzly bear territory.
To celebrate the change of guard, the company has launched the AdventureWomen ROCK sweepstakes. Enter until Nov. 15, for a grand prize toward one of AdventureWomen’s 2017 trips.

May 31, 2023Homer and Janet by Homer Review
The Marais District, covering swaths of Paris’ 3rd and 4th arrondissments, has a distinctively gritty glamour that reveals it to be one of the city’s great incubators for new French food, fashion and lifestyle trends. It is here Moïse Sfez took on the challenge of creating street food establishments Homer in 2017 and Janet by Homer in 2022, doing it in such a way they both transcend the novelty of being regional American comfort food offered at stylized lunch counters matching up with New England lobster shacks and New York delis. Overwhelming local response and Sfez winning the 2018 Lobster Roll World’s Championship title in Portland, Maine, solidified him as a Paris restaurateur and one of France’s hottest culinary stars.

May 31, 2023Review: InterContinental Los Angeles Downtown
ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: Shortly after 1 p.m., our Uber driver delivered my husband and me to the drive-up entrance of the Wilshire Grand building, the tallest building on the West Coast and home to InterContinental Los Angeles Downtown. Attentive valets greeted us and directed us to the dedicated elevator, which whisked us up to the 70th-floor lobby. Though it was early afternoon, our room was ready, and the desk staff checked us in quickly and directed us to the elevator to our 53rd-floor room. We strolled past several comfortable seating areas and a large bar and lounge, tastefully adorned with understated holiday décor. All were wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, affording stunning views of the sun-splashed city and the ocean beyond.

May 31, 2023Review: Omni Los Angeles Hotel at California Plaza
ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: After an early-morning departure from the East Coast followed by several flight delays and a long Uber transfer from LAX, I was quite happy to finally arrive at the circular driveway of Omni Los Angeles Hotel at California Plaza. Entering the glass doors into the light-filled lobby, I was immediately greeted by a pleasant aroma in the air and no line at the check- in desk. Check-in was speedy, and individually packaged baked goods and water awaited arriving guests.
