Working with YAML

data.yml

name: 'La Crosse, WI'
code: LSE
directions: http://g.co/maps/62ufz
image: 'lacrosse-image.jpg'
website: http://www.cityoflacrosse.org/index.aspx?NID=851

description: La Crosse is the closest flight destination. It is right
  on the Mississippi and about an hour away. It is a small airport so we
  <strong>definitely recommend</strong> making a rental car reservation ahead of time.
