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.

Anne Franks' House - Amsterdam

        Today it looks like an office building more than an apartment. It stands on a average street with a canal running by. The story that it tells is of a Jewish family hiding so they would not die at the hands of the Nazis. A little girl writing a diary is a most powered inditement of those who cannot tolerate a whole group of people. The stairs are steep and the air stuffy behind the false door, but we suggest that it is an important visit in this political climate.
