The best adventures are those that contain surprises. There are wonders to be discovered by getting lost in the Highlands of Scotland or on the back roads of New England. There may just be a chance to meet a special character who changes your life. In ancient times these were sometimes known as angels.

What you don't see...
We do not think that tourist oriented places are bad, but we usually do not spend much time at them. The top picture is the London Eye - we walked by it, It seems too Disneyland for us. The next picture is as close as we got to Blarney Castle in Ireland - I have no need to kiss the stone (ask anyone). And, we were sure that we would skip the gondola ride in Venice. However, being thrifty (read cheap) we had paid for it in a package so we took one anyway. If you miss the gondola, it is fine. Spend the money on a bottle of wine and watch the sunset from the Accademia Bridge over the Grand Canal.
