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.

Do not underestimate Liechtenstein

   
     The picture above is a quick snapshot out of our car window as we entered Liechtenstein from Austria. I was all ready to hand over my passport at the border and have it stamped. You cannot do that, you must go into Vaduz and have it stamped and they charge you for doing it. It isn't like this small country is broke. They have a very high per capita income.
     If you did not see this sign (there were some border guards in a small glass hut there) you would not know you were in a different country. It is pretty much like Austria and Switzerland. However, I did not get lost in Austria or Switzerland, but got all messed up in Liechtenstein. Did meet a couple of nice people who did not speak English so they could not help me find my way.  It was a Sunday and the country was pretty much closed.
