We like to add on a week or two to a tour or to just design our own car trips. A favorite place to rent is Auto Europe which is a broker. In Verona, Italy we rented a "small" car which turned out to be a Mercedes B Class. It was a learning experience for me driving a diesel configured this way, but a great car for the mountain roads of northern Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. (And Liechtenstein, as well.) This is a photo of my co-pilot at Lake Como on the way to Bellagio. Anything wider than this would not have made it on those narrow roads.
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
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.
