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.

The Grotto Near Portland, Oregon

The view from the upper level -  looking North.

Looking down on the chapel from the upper level.
     The grotto is worth a visit when in the Portland area. It is a retreat center as well as a center for the arts. At Christmas it is great music and thousands of colored lights. They have a religious book store. The upper level, reached by elevator, goes to a lovely chapel with  view of the Columbia Valley along with trails winding between sculpture and places to stop and meditate or rest. We take friends and relatives there as well as meeting interesting folks also visiting from out of town. It is a nice stop on the way to Multnomah Falls.
