travel festival

hey, there's this travel writing and photography festival coming up at the end of the month. its a little pricey so i can only afford to go on one day and am not sure which sounds better or who i shouldn't miss!

i'm not familiar with all the names but they do sound good (they would tho i guess!)

No Michael Palin this year sadly, but hopefully they'll repeat the event next year and perhaps we can suggest names we'd like to hear from.

i'm currently leaning to go to see the two john's, messrs simpson and scott, but what do you all advise - check out the details at www.travellerstalesfestival.com

thanks for help
