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.

Dutch Windmill

     I have seen windmills in Spain that have been tilted and others in Ireland, Africa and near my home in California. Some make power, the Spanish ones grind grain, but the one in the picture seems to just stand there and look pretty (like the ones on Montmartre or the Moulin Rouge in Paris). It is in the middle of Amsterdam and I assume was once used to pump water back over the dike. Needless to say, seeing Holland without seeing a windmill would be disappointing.
