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.

Amsterdam; city of bridges

     Amsterdam is a city of canals like Venice, but the inflow is controlled. The city also uses larger boats to get around and for delivery. This means that there are many bridges and many of the bridges are draw bridges. The photo here is of us in a small boat making our way around the city. Being small, the boat can go under even the lower bridges, but the ship ahead of us needed to have more room. There is some very creative engineering going on in this city.
