    Our presenter George Jabol says of this journey, “It was a personal mission to honor the memory of my partner, Jean Burns and, in celebration of her life, an opportunity to explore and experience closely the places she loved.” George traveled first to Edinburgh, arriving at the height of the city’s annual International Festival and just in time to attend the Military Tattoo entertainment at Edinburgh Castle. Then, going by train to Glasgow, he explored the most populated city in Scotland, and the nearby Loch Lomond. A short flight to London, George visited Buckingham Palace, and climbed to the top of a double-decker tour bus, with its comprehensive views of this fabulous city. Reflecting on his travels, George knew he had fulfilled Jean’s wish that he should enjoy and not be saddened by this journey. George Jabol received his Ph.D. in English language and literature from the University of Michigan and is a well-known presenter in our Ann Arbor community. Fully retired now from a career with the federal government, George creates photographic slide shows as a way o remember his travels and share them with others.
