Writing in the Wichita Eagle, Mary Ann Anderson has written about places that you should see in your lifetime. The article is full of references to Kenya's Maasai Mara (a game preserve within the grassy plains of the Great Serengeti region), riding a camel to see the Pyramids at sunrise, paragliding over the Alps, floating down the Nile and experiencing the gastronomical delights of Paris.
However, she also quotes Tom, a public relations expert from Connecticut. Tom says that his favorite travel moments come from combining travel and genealogy. "It's impossible to put into words what these experiences are like, but there's an exhilaration that you'll never experience from simply reading about your family history. It brings travel to a uniquely personal level, and it helps forge a real sense of connection with your past."
