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.

Rodin -I knew I'd seen that before

Walking into the Museum d'Orsay in Paris I saw a Rodin sculpture that I knew I had seen before. Another casting of the sculpture is in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. You see enough museums and galleries and you may be surprised at how much you learn. One thing I notice about these two photos I took is that the scale of the sculpture is easier to see in the picture from the Victoria and Albert. You can walk around the figure there and see it in context. The one in Paris is in front of a red wall and does not show the size.
