Who doesn't love those cute, silver, rounded little Airstream trailers of the '30s? Like most things, they're gotten bigger and fancier over time. The evolution continues, with the latest Land Yacht due out soon, complete with interior designed by Mauro Micheli, who designs the interiors of multimillion-dollar yachts (story and slideshow): http://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20130419-for-airstream-a-riveting-debut
   Anna Nordberg, a senior editor at Sunset, and her husband, Man Skills, chose an Airstream for their first camper trip, 300 miles up California's central coast ~ and shares tips she learned along the way: http://www.sunset.com/travel/california/airstream-california-road-trip-00418000068066/
   The May issue of Sunset magazine has a list of examples of one of the newest kind of hotel fads, "Airstream hotels." It's not available on their website yet (at least, I couldn't find it), but they include the Santa Barbara Auto Camp, in Santa Barbara, California (where else!); The Shady Dell, in Bisbee, Arizona; the Metro Hotel, in Petaluma, California; the Shooting Star Drive-In Resort, in Escalante, Utah; Hicksville Trailer Palace, in Joshua Tree, California; and Living Airstream, in Denver, Colorado.
