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.

London, UK - We are drawn back
Once was not enough for us to be in London. I have wondered what it is that draws us back. Certainly it is so large that you cannot cover it even in a lifetime, but we really only spend our days in a small area near long the Thames in Bloomsbury, Soho, Westminster and adjourning areas. It may be that it is a city made up of so many different people, or the great history, or the fact that they speak English. We have not narrowed it down. It is a walk-able city and also has a great public transportation system, as does Paris and New York. London also has a sense of humor (or humour) which seems to come through. France has its knowing nod, Rome has its passionate laughter, London has a dry chuckle. We feel welcome there and at home. Maybe it is our Anglo-Saxon roots. We will ponder this and get back to you.
