Along the streets and tourist areas, men appear to have laid out rugs with various items for sale. The rugs have ropes attached to their four corners. If the police come near they grab the ropes, tied in the center, and they magically have a bag which they carry away. The items are attached to the rug and will easily be laid out once again when the coast is clear. These men are not licensed and know that they can be cited. But, it is how they make a small living. Barcelona scarfs are popular. This can also be seen in places in Italy and France where tourists are.
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.
