Manatee, Florida
Photo: Brian SkerryA manatee swims in a freshwater spring in Crystal River, Florida. Manatees struggle for survival as the result of a gantlet of threats, from watercraft strikes to toxins in the water. The most serious threat, however, is the loss of warm water due to the habitat loss.
That’s my best friend. We held hands.

Many thanks to Flavorwire for rounding up this list of world-wide literary traditions for die-hard fans of Ernest Hemingway and Jane Austen alike. I once journeyed to Dublin one ill-fated June 16th to celebrate Bloomsday, only to discover upon my arrival that the festivities had been shut down to commemorate a national funeral. Mercifully, my traveling companion and I managed to find the one tour in operation, only to desert after 30 minutes due to the gross incompetence of our guide. He was filling in, and admitted to never having finished the legendary tome in question, Ulysses.
Now, as you begin planning your 2012 travels, pick your poison. May you have better luck than I:
The Poe Toaster (Baltimore, MD)
Bloomsday (Dublin, Ireland)
Muggle Quidditch (Middlebury, VT)
The Hemingway Look-Alike Contest (Key West)
Kissing Oscar Wilde’s Tomb (Paris, France)
The Jane Austen Festival (Bath, England)
The Annual Moby Dick Marathon (New Bedford, MA)
Baker Street Irregulars (New York City)
