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.

Beautiful things...

Twelve of the most beautiful views I have experienced (for various reasons, in random order):
in addition to my bride coming down the aisle and my daughters at birth.

1. The valley of County Waterford as seen from The Vee (hairpin corner near Lismore, Ireland)
2. Clouds coming in over the Alps in Northern Italy.
3. The city of London from 3,000 feet descending for landing at Heathrow Airport.
4. A thunderstorm and lightening while on a ferry to San Juan Island, WA.
5. The dock at Sausalito after being seasick for 8 hours outside the Golden Gate.
6. The neon/LED’s of Times Square, New York.
7. "The Birth of Venus", in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence.
8. The finish line of the Bay to Breakers race in San Francisco.

9. Sunset in Venice, Italy.

10. The Abbey at Iona Scotland in candlelight.
