There’s a reason why Europe is such a popular vacation destination. Few places in the world offer so much rich history in such a relatively small area. In just a matter of hours, you could be touring castles, snacking on gelato, visiting cathedrals or snapping photos of famous landmarks in several different countries. You could live there for the rest of your life and never run out of things to see.
Anna Siampani of CEOWORLD Magazine summed it up nicely when she wrote, “Walking in the streets there is like walking in a fairytale and a trip to Europe is like a trip in time.”
Booking a trip to Europe can be stressful, as you usually want to visit as many places as possible. Coordinating transportation between countries alone is a part-time job! Take the frustration out of planning and just enjoy the sights, sounds and tastes of Europe on a guided tour through Dick Jensen and Alan McKay Tours.
Here’s what’s on the itinerary
Dick Jensen and Alan McKay Tours’ Grand European Tour covers five countries and multiple different must-see stops over a span of 13 days.

One stop includes a full-day tour of Mad King Ludwig’s fairytale Neuschwanstein Castle, the famous structure that inspired Sleeping Beauty’s Castle in Disneyland. One Google reviewer said, “Amazing palace in an amazing location between plains, lakes and high mountains. It looks medieval but is modern. Worth any voyage to come experience it and its surroundings.”
Another day you’ll visit Mirabell Gardens, which you might recognize from the “Do Re Mi” song in “The Sound of Music.” These gardens are in TripAdvisor’s top three things to do in Salzburg. You’ll also see See Salzburg’s majestic Cathedral Square (Domplatz).
In addition to these incredible stops, you’ll also visit:
- Vienna with a photo stop at Habsburg’s magnificent Schönbrunn Palace, a trip to the great St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the State Opera House.
- Budapest to visit Buda Castle, the 13th Century St. Matthias Church and views of Parliament from Fisherman’s Bastion.
- Heroes’ Square and a Danube River cruise before continuing to a Hungarian dinner with gypsy music and a folklore show.
- Wieliczka Salt Mine with its underground tunnels and salt sculptures.
- Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp.
- 1,000-year-old Prague Castle and the enormous St. Vitus Cathedral and other top spots in Prague.
- Dresden to enjoy the artistic and architectural heritage of the Zwinger Palace and Semper Opera House.
- The famous Berlin Wall and Checkpoint Charlie.
This isn’t even the full list. For a complete itinerary, visit djamtours.com/europeantour.

Golden Knights vs. Mammoth Game 1 prediction: NHL odds, picks, best bets for Stanley Cup Playoffs
The Utah Mammoth is going to be a trendy underdog pick in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Not only does Utah have the novelty of this being its first-ever appearance in the postseason going for it, but the Mammoth tick plenty of other boxes that punters look for in a dark horse. They’re fast, dynamic, and create plenty of quality scoring chances.
The only problem is that they are running into the Vegas Golden Knights, arguably the best defensive team in the Western Conference, in Round 1.
Vegas is a -170 favorite to win the series, and it is -152 to win Game 1 on Sunday night.
Mammoth vs. Golden Knights odds, prediction
The Golden Knights had a weird season. Vegas started hot, took its foot off the pedal, and struggled to regain its form down the stretch. That led to a surprising coaching switch late in the campaign, but the move paid immediate dividends as John Tortorella led the Knights to a 7-0-1 record in his eight games behind the bench.
It should be noted that Tortorella benefited from an easy schedule since taking over in Vegas, but it’s hard to deny that the team looks sparked with a new voice in their ear.
What’s especially encouraging for Vegas is that its most glaring weakness, the play of goaltender Carter Hart, has started to trend in the right direction at the exact right time.
And Vegas is so good in its own zone that Hart doesn’t need to stand on his head to get the team over the line against Utah. If he’s just average, the Knights will stand a chance, especially since Utah’s goaltending situation is just as much of a question mark.
Betting on the NHL?
Outside of Vejmelka outplaying Hart, the Mammoth will also need to get this series on their terms if they want to pull the upset. Utah grades out as a slightly above-average defensive outfit, but its strength is up front with dynamic playmakers like Logan Cooley and Clayton Keller, plus sharp-shooter Dylan Guenther.
For those stars to have an impact, the Mammoth will need to get Vegas to open up and engage in a back-and-forth style. I just don’t see that happening with a team that was so disciplined in its own zone all season. The Knights led the NHL in expected goals against and high-danger chances conceded at 5-on-5, which shouldn’t be a shocker given the personnel in Sin City.
Not only does Vegas boast a deep blueline, but forwards Mitch Marner and Mark Stone are regarded as two of the best defensive minds in the entire sport.
Perhaps Utah can blitz Vegas and pull the upset, but I’d need a bigger number to go against the experienced, defensively savvy Knights in a best-of-7.
And if you’re looking for a play with more upside, have a good look at Vegas to pull off the sweep at 12/1.

Multiple earthquakes detected near Kanosh
KANOSH, Utah — The United States Geological Survey recorded multiple earthquakes near Kanosh Sunday morning, each of them having an average magnitude of 3.0.
The first earthquake, magnitude 3.0, was detected just after 12:30 a.m., with the epicenter located half a mile south of Kanarraville.
The second quake, magnitude 3.2, was detected around 5:45 a.m., with the epicenter nearly five miles south-southwest of Kanosh. This was followed by two more quakes in the same area, a magnitude 2.5 quake coming in around 6:35 a.m., followed by a third around 7:45 a.m, which measured at magnitude 3.3.
This has since been followed by another quake, measuring at magnitude 3.7, being detected around 8:45 a.m. The geographic location in the USGS report places the epicenter approximately over two miles south of the Dry Wash Trail, about six miles south-southwest of Kanosh.
FOX 13 News previously spoke with researchers at University of Utah, who said that earthquake swarms are relatively common. A study published in 2023 posits that swarms may be triggered by geothermal activity. The findings came after a series of seismic swarms were detected in central Utah, within the vicinity of three geothermal power plants.
The study also says that the swarms fall into a different category than aftershocks that typically follow large quakes, such as the magnitude 5.7 earthquake that hit the Wasatch Fault back in 2020.
