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.

Winged Victory - The Louvre

     At the top of one of the stairways in the Louvre is the famous "Winged Victory".  It is particularly well set as it can be seen from below and then as you climb the steps you close in on the detail.  It is one of those pieces of art that you have seen in books and wonder what it is like in person - or, at least, I did. I am not sure how long we spent seeing works like this in the Louvre, but I know that you could spend a week and not see it all.
