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.

You will be shot



     We cannot tell you where these photos were taken as poachers may get some identification and find the rhinos.  But, we can tell you that these rhinos are endangered due to people who kill the rhinos for their horn. It is believed in Asian culture to be aphrodisiac and stimulant. The photo at the bottom is of a couple of armed guards protecting the rhinos. They carry high-powered rifles and will shoot to kill and ask questions later in the case of poachers.  They are serious. Poachers have killed many rhinos and placed them on the endangered list. This is an animal with an armed guard.
