In 1974 Ted Simon set out on a round-the-word motorcycle journey. His account of the four-year odyssey, Jupiter's Travels, has long been "the" classic motorcycle travel tale. For me this tales holds an invaluable lesson: "The interruptions are the journey." Now, at the age of 69, Ted retraces his journey on a two and a half year journey. The delightful Dreaming of Jupiter is the tale of that adventure.

Laureen is a writer, a professional editor, a scuba instructor, a beginning sailor, a traveler, and an obsessive researcher who's chiefly focused on, and delighted with, her husband Jason and her sons Rowan (5) and Kestrel (2). In July of 2006 Laureen and her husband found themselves garden-variety desk-driving SUV-owning suburbanites, so they did the obvious thing and sold their house to live as a family on a catamaran in the Emeryville harbor.
