| I am glad I taped this last night - really enjoyable. I can't wait
until he gets to Finland! It really shows you the flavor of the
country and the people.

|
| 279.3 | Have to go with the same schedule as this week | TLE::SAVAGE | Neil, @Spit Brook | Thu Jul 14 1988 15:37 | 7 |
| Channel 2 in Boston should be following the same sequence as outlined
in the base note; that is, first showing Monday at 8 p.m., Tuesday
at 12:30 & 11 p.m, Wednesday at 7 p.m.
For other areas of the US, check local TV program guides for listings.
Channel 11 in NH is not broadcasting this, although VT's Channel
41 is. I guess it's up to local PBS station managers.

| 279.5 | Title: Adventure/ Description of Part 2 | TLE::SAVAGE | Neil, @Spit Brook | Fri Jul 15 1988 08:53 | 12 |
| Re: .4: >What's the title of this...?
My TV Guide lists it under the title "ADVENTURE" - it is part of the
PBS 'Adventure' series.
Details of Part 2, quoted from TV Guide:
"Tom Vernon pedals toward Sweden via Norwegian Lapland and visits an
abandoned copper mine where concerts are now held ('In a minor key,' he
jests); and a cottage where he samples reindeer meat. In a Swedish town
outside of Storsatern, Vernon meets a restauranteur who introduces him
to goat butter and raw elk.
|
| 279.6 | Details of Part 3 | TLE::SAVAGE | Neil, @Spit Brook | Fri Jul 22 1988 08:21 | 5 |
| Part 3 begins with a visit to a Swedish copper mine, and to a bakery
that uses wood-fired stoves in make crispbread. Vernon also attends
a traditional summer dinner in Dalarna, where women are crowned
with garlands of flowers to celebrate mankind's victory over the
elements [of darkness and cold presumably].
|
| 279.7 | The conclusion | TLE::SAVAGE | Neil, @Spit Brook | Fri Jul 29 1988 20:41 | 3 |
| In Finland, Vernon visits a Gypsy farm family in Turku [doesn't DEC
have a facility in Turku?]. At a river bank in Hameenlinna, he
observes a community carpet cleaning.

| 279.9 | EXCELLENT PBS SERIES | SHARE::DYER | | Fri Aug 05 1988 16:35 | 4 |
| Yes, it was excellent but we were a little disappointed that he
did not go to Denmark. He had also lost weight by the time he had
finished. Guess I'll get back on that bike.
|
| 279.10 | | CIRCUS::KOLLING | Karen, Sweetie, & Holly; in Calif. | Fri Aug 05 1988 18:24 | 3 |
| Me, too, I wished he'd gone to Denmark. I must say, I'm surprised
he didn't have a heart attack, bicycling in that condition.
|
| 279.11 | | TOPDOC::AHERN | Where was George? | Mon Aug 22 1988 15:25 | 4 |
| He would've found Denmark to be a lot easier on cycling. There's
not too many hills compared to Norway and Sweden.

Why, are you missing one?

|
| 279.14 | Of course we have hills... | COPCLU::GEOFFREY | Denmark Services Finance | Mon Aug 29 1988 04:04 | 12 |

Denmark's loftiest piece of topography is ambitiously called
HIMMELBJERG, translated as SKY MOUNTAIN. It is around 360 feet (120
meters) high. One of the few places not covered during high water...
