I'm reminded of a comment Diana, Princess of Wales, is supposed to have made to a friend who, after complimenting her on how her tan perfectly offset a summer dress she was wearing, asked which glamorous holiday destination shehad visited.
Nearly fifteen years had passed since Ruma's only European adventure, a month-long EuroRail holiday she'd taken with two girlfriends after college, with money saved up from her salary as a para- legal.
It had been more than 20 years since she oversaw the first legal holiday in honor of her husband, aholiday that has come to be celebrated in some form in over 100 countries, according to her biography on The King Center Web site.
