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.

In Europe the old becomes new


Photos by Mike McLellan
     In Kilkenny, Ireland - near the castle - there is a building which has been converted to an apartment. It is a nice series of homes in a very pretty neighborhood across from the beautifully maintained park. At the entrance to the parking lot is an old stone gate. A close look and you can see what it was before.
     Much of the U.K. and the rest of Europe is recycled. Factories become homes, homes become offices, and castles become hotels. This is real recycling.
