This week, Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from an amazing archipelago — and the nine westernmost islands of Europe, out in the Atlantic Ocean — the Azores islands. Journalist Tatiana Ourique joins the show with the unique position in history held by the Azores, and Historian Francisco Maduro Dias discusses the surprising role the Azores played in the U.S. Civil War. And here’s another surprise — the real story behind the bullfights in the Azores — and how — and why — they don’t kill the bulls. There’s all this and more as Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes the Azores.
