Dalmatia – a Rough Guide to the Tour
Dalmatia Delights A Rough Guide to the Tour 2 Dalmatia Delights Preface This guide (entirely and unashamedly lifted from other sources, mostly cited) tries to follow the Dalmatian Delights itinerary for the Ferris Wheels tour. Its purpose is to present in one place some highlights of the tour; and, hopefully, save participants from buying several guide books, although there is at least one book (Western Balkans, Lonely Planet) that covers a lot but not all of the itinerary. First, a little introduction to Dalmatia. As I noted on my Dalmatia page, the term is a loose way of referring, partly to Dalmacija, a region in Croatia, but then, loosely, to surrounding regions spanning coast, hinterland and mountains in parts of Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro and, for good measure, the Passo di Stelvio in the Italian Dolomites. So don’t get too hung up on the name. More strictly speaking, Dalmatia (Croatian: Dalmacija), is an historical region on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea and is situated in Croatia. It spreads between the island of Rab in the northwest and the Bay of Kotor, in Montenegro, in the southeast. The hinterland, the Dalmatian Zagora, ranges from fifty kilometers in width in the north to just a few kilometers in the south. The Dalmatian dog gets its name from Dalmatia. In antiquity the Roman province of Dalmatia was much larger than the present-day region, stretching from Istria to historical Albania. Dalmatia signified not only a geographical unit, but it was an entity based on common culture and settlement types. Secondly, Dalmatia came before the dog! The dog got its name from its association with Dalmatia. -

Christmas Under Wraps’
‘CHRISTMAS UNDER WRAPS’ CAST BIOS CANDACE CAMERON BURE (Lauren Brunell) – Candace Cameron Bure realized early that it was her desire to be an actress. Born in 1976 to Robert and Barbara Cameron, she grew up watching her older brother Kirk Cameron star in the popular show “Growing Pains.” It was from this experience that Cameron Bure knew that she wanted to pursue acting. At the age of 5, she appeared in several national television commercials and prime-time shows like “St. Elsewhere,” and “Who’s The Boss.” She even had the opportunity to take on a small role in her brother’s show “Growing Pains.” It was in 1987 however, that Cameron Bure took on the most important role of her young life as Donna Jo "D.J." Tanner on the series “Full House.” Viewers watched Cameron Bure grow up during the show's eight-year run and maintained an unwavering affection for her, even as she grew older. Despite being off the air since 1995, “Full House” still ranks as one of the most successful series of all time. While much of her success was in television, Cameron Bure also gained starring roles in feature films. Joining the long tradition of John Hughes movies, she acted alongside Eric Stoltz and Mary Stuart Masterson in “Some Kind of Wonderful” in 1987. She then had the opportunity to work with acting greats Tom Hanks and Sally Field in the 1988 comedy, “Punchline.” After “Full House” wrapped its last season, Cameron Bure met her future husband, professional hockey player Valeri Bure and began making her own full house. -
