Travel junkie Peggy Harrell has put her feet on every continent but one, and she plans to hit the seventh continent in the not-too-distant future. “I’ve ridden an elephant in India, camels in Morocco and Egypt, helicoptered out from a rafting trip in the Grand Canyon, climbed glaciers in New Zealand, star gazed in Australia, safaried in Africa, trekked in the Andes on horseback, slept in an ice hotel in Norway, and been to Space Camp. I’ll try almost anything, as long as it doesn’t involve snakes!”
