The best adventures are those that contain surprises. There are wonders to be discovered by getting lost in the Highlands of Scotland or on the back roads of New England. There may just be a chance to meet a special character who changes your life. In ancient times these were sometimes known as angels.
WELCOME

Passageway to the Ghetto in Venice, Italy
I loved visiting the Ghetto in Venice. It was the home for the Jewish community for many years and is a place of history. There are a couple of excellent places to eat there and some shops selling Judaica. For me, this long passageway which controlled their coming in and going out was of great interest. We walked this passage several times when we were in Venice. Anyone read "The Merchant of Venice?" Well, then you know a little about this.
