Getting the geography right! In the September Issue of Passport in the article Nizhny Novgorod in a Day, the city is on the banks of the Oka River, not Okra, which is, of course, a vegetable. Our wine editor, Charles Borden was so enamored with the wines of Italy’s Piedmont region that he disorientated himself. Piedmont is in the northwest of Italy, not the northeast. We are grateful to Maja Bogdesic, an avid watcher of the Turin winter Olympics, for setting the record straight. Still on geography In the October Issue of Passport we apologize for misspelling Malaysia, which has designated 2007, Visit Malaysia year. We nearly jeopardized our visas! Sorry, Ambassador Khalis. In the same Out & About report we relocated Basil Rajendram from his home country of Malyasia south to Singapore! Sorry Basil. Lastly It was of course the law firm Hellevig, Klein & Usov which celebrated moving into their new offices in Bulgakov House. Apologies for the typo in the headline Jon.
