WELCOME

This blog is about the adventure of traveling and especially the interesting people that you meet. We will share stories about people and places we have encountered from around the United States, Ireland, Scotland, England, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, France, Canada, Spain, Mexico, The Vatican, The Netherlands, Belgium, Zambia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Liechtenstein, Portugal, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, and more. This is not a travelogue -- we leave that to Rick Steves -- this is a collection of fragments in the journey of life.

Expectations are not always fulfilled

 
This is a photo (from Google) of what I expected to see in Switzerland as we drove from Austria  down to Lake Como in Italy.

 
This is more of what we saw. This is another photo copied from Google and is actually a little better than our reality. We drove through glorious canyons with steep sides but all we could see was dark sky and very, very hard rain. On the autobahn, on each side, we could see waterfalls. We did stop at a small town and got a little local character, but in general we saw windshield wipers for about eight hours straight. We will have to go back to see what it was we saw.
