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.

Trump Administration and killing elephants for sport

Mr. Trump's son likes to bring home trophies like elephant tails, but the elephants are being killed at a rate of nearly 100 a day - mostly for ivory and trophies. The governments of Zambia and Zimbabwe are working to bring back the population and reintroduce them to areas where they have been brought to extinction. Elephants are not predators, They eat plants. Why would you think it is fun to shoot and kill one of these. (I met him in the Chobe River in July. He was playing and bathing.)
