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.

A. Rodin - all over




Photo by Mike McLellan

      Rodin's studio in a former hotel in central Paris is now a museum with many of his sculptures in the garden as well as inside. It is recently reopened after renovation. (Renovation is common all over Europe in the summer months. You need to get accustomed to scaffolding.) But, Rodin's work is appreciated around the world. The piece above is in the sculpture area of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. There are other works there. The famous "The Thinker" was cast in multiple copies, one of which is in the courtyard of the Palace of the Legion of Honor near us in San Francisco. I will admit to being a fan of his work.
