It is said that if you kiss under the Bridge of Sighs in Venice you will have an everlasting love. To the right in the Doge's Palace and to the left is the prison. The Bridge of Sighs is called that because of the sound prisoners made as they were led to their just rewards. I am not sure about everlasting love, but the whole thing is very romantic - Venice is romantic by itself. Photo by Mike McLellan
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.
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.
