Sarcasm here about the wonderful diamond lanes in California. They advertise that during certain hours cars with more than one passenger can take the diamond lane and make better time. The idea is to encourage people to car pool.
I have been driving the freeway often and -- when there are two of us -- we take the diamond lanes. But, a whole lot of single drivers are in the diamond lane. It is a big fine posted for being there solo, but I do not see many people pulled over for it. Not that I want scofflaws to suffer, and I do understand the CHP has lots to do, but it does not make me feel any kinder toward the solo drivers in the diamond lane.
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.

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.
