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.

George Washington

     Is this Mount Vernon? - Washington D.C.? Nope.
     This statue of  George Washington stands in front of the National Gallery in London. The National Gallery is across from Trafalgar near St. Martins. He is at the center of London. Why? He was their enemy.
     He is also a symbol of the friendship we share and the common enemies we have faced. He was not just the first President of the United States, he was the one who stood up against an evil king. So, they rewrite history just like we do.
