            MARQUETTE, Mich.—A century ago, Rudyard Kipling described Burma as a place “quite unlike any land you know about.” After a long period of isolation, the country--also known as Myanmar—has started to encourage tourism. Traveler Sharon Rice will present a Northern Center for Lifelong Learning program titled “Land of Golden Temples and Floating Gardens.”  Her talk is scheduled at 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 20, in room 101-B of the Superior Dome.

            The cost is free for NCLL members and $5 for non-members. Register by Tuesday, Jan. 14, by calling 227-2979.
