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.

Barcelona, Spain

 Narrow walkway by the cathedral.
Painting of that spot by street artist.
     An artist (a teacher working summers) had a easel set up to do some watercolor work. We walked by and were struck by his work. As always, we attempted to haggle the price which was 25 Euros. Nope. After paying, the police who cruise around ridding the area of people selling things in front of stones, swept the walkway. The painter was not in a league with people selling cheap sunglasses  still packed up and was gone. A number of folks we met wanted the painting and, I suppose, we could have made money on it. Instead, it is now framed and one the wall of our bedroom.
