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.

Amsterdam - it is all in the details


     The world is full of interesting cities and Amsterdam is near the top. This city is not a place of high rise glass towers and giant stadiums - at least in the center. It is a place of bicycles and row houses and quietly standing on a bridge or watching a truck (see bottom photo) make its way across one of those bridges.  Amsterdam is a place of great art and shocking history (Anne Frank). It is progressive and accepting. Amsterdam is a place of pancakes and pot. It deserves more than a couple of night's visit.
