Yuki was a lively and innocent girl, while Haruto was a calm boy. They were both looking forward to their first urban experience and enjoying the excitement of Tokyo.Ja: 彼らが渋谷駅に到着した瞬間、その活動量と人々の多さに圧倒されました。大勢の人々が急ぎ足で行き交い、声や笑い声、足音や電車の音が混ざり合って大きな音を立てていました。これが駅の混雑の理由でした。En: The moment they arrived at Shibuya Station, they were overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle and the crowds of people. Many people hurriedly passed by, creating a loud mix of voices, laughter, footsteps, and the sound of trains. This was the reason for the station's congestion.Ja: あまりの混雑に戸惑ったユキは、ハルトとはぐれてしまったのです。彼女はひとりとなり、周りの混乱に怯えながらも必死にハルトを探そうとしました。En: Yuki, bewildered by the crowd, ended up losing sight of Haruto. Alone and scared amidst the chaos, she desperately tried to find him.Ja: そんな中、彼女は英語を話す遠くから来た観光客のグループに目を止めました。彼らの笑顔と楽しそうな雰囲気に引かれ、彼女はそのグループに加わることを決めたのです。En: In the midst of this, she noticed a group of tourists speaking English. Drawn to their smiles and cheerful atmosphere, she decided to join the group.Ja: 一方、ハルトもまたユキを探して駅の中を彷徨いました。しかし、彼もまた混雑と騒音に圧倒され、ユキを見つけることができませんでした。彼は心配して彼女の名前を叫んだり、高いところから周囲を見たりしましたが、それでも見つけることはできませんでした。En: Meanwhile, Haruto also wandered through the station searching for Yuki. However, he too was overwhelmed by the crowds and noise, unable to find her. He called out her name in worry, scanned the area from a high vantage point, but still couldn't find her.Ja: だが、しばらくして、ハルトは外国語が飛び交う歓声を聞きつけました。その声の方向に目を向けると、込んだ群衆の中に小さな頭が見えました。それは、観光客の中に紛れて行くユキだったのです。En: After a while, Haruto heard cheers in a foreign language. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a small head among the crowded mass. It was Yuki blending in with the tourists.Ja: ハルトはすぐに彼女の元に駆け寄り、二人は無事に再会を果たしました。そして二人は観光客のグループと一緒に東京の名所を巡り、失くした時間を取り戻すことができました。En: Haruto quickly ran to her, and they were happily reunited. Together with the tourists, they visited Tokyo's famous spots, making up for the lost time.Ja: この日、ユキとハルトは都会の混雑に立ち向かう方法を学び、また観光客たちと共に新たな楽しい体験をしました。以上が彼らの最初の東京体験となったのです。En: On that day, Yuki and Haruto learned how to face the urban crowds and had a new enjoyable experience with the tourists. That was their first Tokyo adventure.Ja: だから、こう言っても過言ではないでしょう。迷子になることで見つけた新しい友情と経験こそが、この物語の本当の宝物だったのだと。En: Therefore, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the new friendship and experience they found through getting lost were the real treasures of this story.

(^ You can listen to Ledger editor Tony Mecia read this letter to readers by clicking above) Dear Ledger reader:It's the end of 2021, the time of the year when organizations look back and look ahead.At The Ledger, we'll try to spare you the overly sappy reflections, but we do think it's healthy to share with our readers what we've done and where we're heading. We can exist only because of our readers' support, so we think you deserve periodic updates on how our business is doing.The short version: In 2021, we continued growing, with more paying members climbing aboard, more people hearing about us and more efforts on our part to experiment with new things that readers might like. We plan to keep that up in 2022.The longer version: Man, we did a lot. We sent 292 email newsletters, broke a ton of news, highlighted trends and introduced you to fascinating people in our city. We are pretty sure we made you smarter and better-informed.Some of the work we are most proud of includes:Investigations: We shared some ambitious investigative pieces, including in-depth looks at the sexual assault allegations at Myers Park High, an unexpected $10,000 colonoscopy bill from Atrium Health, the decline of the Arts & Science Council and the trend toward replacing pediatricians with nurses in hospital nurseries.New newsletters: We started 2 new newsletters this year — Ways of Life (obituaries); and Transit Time, in conjunction with WFAE and UNC Charlotte's Urban Institute. Not to brag (too much), but Transit Time was named “Best Local Newsletter” by Queen City Nerve and won a national award from our trade group, Local Independent Online News (LION), for “Collaboration of the Year.”Trends: Because we are connected to Charlotte, we clued you in to interesting and important trends before they became widely apparent. Supply chain disruptions? We looked into the causes months before politicians made it a talking point. Book shortages? We told you about them two weeks before the New York Times. Wild bidding wars for houses? We shared Realtors' eye-opening stories a week before The Wall Street Journal had the same idea. And when teens started stocking up on feta cheese in February because of a TikTok video, guess which local newsletter was ON IT — two weeks before The New York Times took note.The Ledger displayed plenty of range in 2021. Clockwise, from upper left: Midnight hockey in Pineville; J.T. Williams, one of N.C.'s first Black surgeons, who became a politician and diplomat; feta cheese supplies running low in February; the prototype of a drive-thru-only Bojangles in Cotswold; analysis of enrollment declines at south Charlotte public schools; a financial salesman who pursued his dream of opening an east Charlotte reptile shop; the bread-only “Sandwiche” from the fictional Breadland restaurant in our April Fools' edition; pickleball action heats up among newly vaccinated Sun City residents.Interesting people: We introduced you to Charlotte people with stories to tell and lessons to share, including an Atrium Covid ICU nurse who experienced the pandemic through different eyes when her grandmother became ill with the virus; newly vaccinated seniors in Sun City who were happy to resume playing pickleball and attending Saturday night '60s dance parties again; a Broadway fan who received a get-well video message from Lin-Manuel Miranda; investors who put money into tech company AvidXchange and waited 20 years to reap big windfalls; and relocated Northerners who play hockey at midnight in Pineville.Interviews: We gave you Q&As with well-known and fascinating Charlotte people, including former Bank of America CEO Hugh McColl Jr.; former mayors Sue Myrick and Harvey Gantt; the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art's new executive director, Todd Smith; Charlotte Mecklenburg Library's new CEO, Marcellus “MT” Turner; and basketball broadcast analyst Jay Bilas.Growth and development: The story of Charlotte is the story of growth, and we have continued to offer unparalleled and authoritative local coverage of this important topic — from insights on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan; to development trends in Sugar Creek, NoDa, west Charlotte, Ballantyne, SouthPark and University City; to repeated scoops on land deals and development plans and, of course, our popular monthly listing of Charlotte's rezoning petitions

It was a brisk December afternoon, my wife and I were sitting in the Piazza della Republica in Florence waiting to meet up with our friend Linda Sorgiovanni. You've heard Linda on the podcast before, she owns and operates Italy Customized with her business partner Alberto Bassilichi. However, our afternoon plans were to experience the other business they own and operate, Urban Adventures Florence.  We were excited because Linda was going to give us a sample of the Florence Foodies Walk. The walk, a two-and-a-half exploration of the city streets, where we found some hidden gems and experienced the following: Truffles. Gelato. Chianti. Olive Oil. All the essentials of the Italian food pyramid were included on this Florence tour. Leave the diet at home and embrace the feast that is Florence. Gain insight into the best local food stores, restaurants, and wine bars Sample delicious local fare including earthy truffles and artisan chocolate Learn about local extra virgin olive oil (and sample some, too!) Experience a localized food history lesson before sampling the best gelato in town Relax with a glass of chianti at the end of the tour A local, English speaking guide gives the tour, and for about 75-bucks, everything you eat and drink is included.  We were fortunate to have Linda give us a private walk, but it would have been amazing to have other people to share the experience with and get different reactions.  Our first stop was a new Antinori wine bar/restaurant that included a small museum. Besides giving the history of the Antinori family, the courtyard housed a replica "Crazy Cart," which could haul up to 2000 bottles of chianti.  The next stop was a short walk from the Piazza Santa Maria Novella. We went behind the scenes at Top Bakery, where the owners were making their world-famous Panettone. A sweet cake popular around the Christmas holiday. Close your eyes and imagine the most fabulous smell a bakery can produce. That's what we experienced at Top, and everything we tasted was just as delicious! It was time to sit down, Linda had something special planned as we walked into Procacci, a wine bar. We stared with the most refreshing glass of Prosecco and followed it up with not one, but two truffle and butter sandwiches that were simply unforgettable!  Our final stop, Forno di Antonio Mattei. A quaint little shop where we sampled biscotti. Not only did we taste several varieties, but the shop documents the history of the family and the business that is still thriving today. We purchased our biscotti in the replica "hatbox" that was traditional before modern packaging.  We ended our tour at Linda's office to record this podcast. Enjoy! You will want to experience one of the Urban Adventures Florence tours. We want to save you some money doing so! When you book online, enter the promo code, TOTAL TUSCANY, and you will save 5% off the purchase price. If you love (or like) food, and wine, Urban Adventures Florence will give you the best day ever!

Getting paid to travel to the most exciting and fascinating destinations is a pretty cool gig. Ben Groundwater and guests talk about how they got into the travel industry and share their tips and advice on the realities of working in travel.

Topics You already know that we had a great trip to Paris because we have talked about that trip many, many times since returning. But did you also know we spent a few days in Amsterdam too? Amsterdam is beautiful and has a very laid back vibe. The city has a slew of museums and is a mix of new buildings, old buildings and canals. Because the city is extremely bike friendly we would suggest to look both ways before crossing streets. . . because a bike will run you over!   If traveling to Amsterdam from another city in Europe, consider traveling by train. Don’t let anyone convince you to trade seats on the train. . . especially if you are traveling with a “hangry” Kim.  We also suggest that you explore the city on a food tour with Urban Adventures. A trip to Amsterdam is not complete without visiting the Red Light District, if that’s your thing. You should probably get in some culture and check out museums like the Rijksmuseum! Oh, and of course get a selfie with the IAMSTERDAM sign.
