Here it is, December 2007, the time when I like to take a look back and reflect on the past year.

Congratulations to the winners and thank you to all the people who participated.

Thanks to the continual support of our ever-expanding list of loyal readers,   it has been another exciting year for Luxury Experience, "Bringing the Experience of Luxury to You." Beginning with the January 2007 edition where we featured Beijing, China, we took our readers on a year-long thrilling journey in our Destinations and Hotels and Resorts articles to Moscow and St. Petersburg, Russia; Bern and Zurich, Switzerland; Berlin, Germany; Reykjavik, Iceland; the Maltese Islands of Gozo and Malta; Natchez, Mississippi; Greenland; Ireland; and Bermuda.

We went to all lengths to explore exotic Adventures for our readers both on land and underwater, including Scuba Diving in the Maltese Islands and Bermuda; Searching for Icebergs in Greenland; Riding Icelandic Horses; PGA Grand Slam of Golf in Bermuda; Rappelling in Brazil; Climbing the Great Wall of China; and our experience at Waterford Crystal blowing and cutting crystal.

Luxury Experience  featured tantalizing recipes from the top toques of the world in the Chefs' Recipes section, delectable Restaurants to appeal to your sophisticated palates; and pampering Spas in China, Russia, Germany, Iceland, Gozo, and Ireland, to help you keep in shape after visiting all of those wonderful restaurants.

We mixed up great cocktails and created new culinary recipes for the Liquor Cabinet, visited distilleries, and gave a seminar on Cachaça and Pisco in New Orleans at Tales of the Cocktail; we brought you new music from old favorites like Maria Muldaur, as well as from up-and-coming artists in the Music Scene; kept you up to date on the latest fashions in the Fashion section from top designers including Eggert the Furrier, Lacoste, Venexiana, Cabbeen, Chris Han, and Perry Ellis; visited vineyards and brought you wonderful wines in the Wine Cellar; introduced you to Luxury Products; and made some interesting discoveries in the Arts and Antiques section.

Looking back, 2007 has indeed been an exciting year for Luxury Experience, and we look forward to "Bringing the Experience of Luxury to You" in 2008.
