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.

Edinburgh, Scotland - The Royal Mile

     The Royal Mile is a main street in the old town area of Edinburgh. It runs from the Castle down to Holy Rood Palace. It is sort of Disneyland for Scot Presbyterians. In about the middle is St. Giles church pictured above. St. Giles is where John Knox preached during the Reformation. We went to the church twice while in the city and on one visit I took to the pulpit to see what it was like. The house of John Knox is just down the street. The Royal Mile is a place where you can get history, religion, trinkets and Scotch Whisky. (This photo is from an unknown source posted on Google and better than any I took.)
