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.

The great Zebra Migration PBS
This week Public Broadcasting aired a documentary on the migration pattern of the zebra in Botswana. It is now understood to be the longest migration on the continent. The lead driver for filming the trek was Duncan, a native of Botswana. Duncan was one of our personal guides in looking for the Big Five while in Chobe National Park near the Zambian border this month.
He told us about the two years of filming it took to produce the documentary. It was fun to watch the program and see him leading the group in a car like the one above as they drove through the dry and wet areas of Botswana.
If you get an opportunity to see the show, Duncan is the one with a small graying patch on the left side of his head. Nice and knowledgeable guy.
