I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 520. Today the amateur traveler talks about

turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, wild horses, and the salt trade as we go to Turks and Kikos.

I know that I should be heading home, but maybe not, maybe not

today.

Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. No sponsor

today so let's get straight to our main segment on Turks and Kacos.

I'd like to welcome to the show Donna Seam who is a children's author and come to

talk to us about her favorite island archipelago at least I assume it's your

favorite to Donna and that is Turks and Kikos.

Donna, welcome to the show.

Thank you, Chris.

Glad to be here.

Well, it is my favorite archipelago.

That's why I return so often.

So if you judge it by repeat returns it's definitely the winner.

My favorite island within the archipelago is Grand Turk.

We talk about being archipelago how many islands in Turks and

Kecos. It sounds like two but I gather that's incorrect. Most people think of

it as two but it's actually 40 islands and keys and the key is spelled C-A-Y not K-E-Y but it's pronounced key.

Most of those are uninhabited.
