It’s here: Desert Trip music festival will be held again this weekend, Oct. 14–16, in Greater Palm Springs with epic artists including The Rolling Stones, The Who, Roger Waters, Bob Dylan and his Band, Paul McCartney and Neil Young and Promise of the Real.

Where to stay while you’re in town for Desert Trip? Consider renting Merv Griffin’s 40-acre, 14-bedroom La Quinta estate, or 432 Hermosa, Dinah Shore’s six-bedroom former domain in Old Las Palmas, both available as vacation rentals.

On Sunday, have brunch with a mimosa or Bloody Mary while enjoying one of the best drag shows around at Rio Azul Mexican Bar and Grill, or live life in the fast lane while trying out the track at the BMW Performance Driving school. During a one-on-one session, certified instructors will teach you the finer points of cornering, braking, wet pavement handling and other useful driving skills. There’s even Motorcycle School for those who prefer two wheels over four.

High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons —  feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.
