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.

Not Big Ben and now silent

     This is Elizabeth Tower, newly named after the present queen. The largest, deepest bell in the tower is called Big Ben. You can hear Big Ben, but hardly anyone gets to see it. But, right now you cannot hear it at all as the clock is shut down for repairs. None of this makes the tower over Westminster less important.  It is not only beautiful, but a symbol of the great City of London.
