COMMUNITY CONNECTION

Tourist Trap. “Real” travelers avoid them like potato salad left in the sun, right? Not always. There’s a reason loud-t-shirt-wearing swarms descend on these places. They’re often interesting, beautiful or both. Peter decides to try to ditch the tourist scene by heading out at 6 AM. Whatever trick you use, don’t miss out on something great just because you don’t want to be one of “those people.”
