This is a photo of the Rock of Gibraltar as seen from near the airport. Notice the apartments in the lower left for scale. The Rock looks solid and is used that way in advertising, but going up to the top you will find it is full of tunnels, caves and holes - the result of wars as far back of the American Revolution. The tunnels are interesting and the great cave has been made into a theater. The road is very narrow. Our personal driver was a pro. In my search for visiting tiny countries, this was a winner. Good lodging, food and people. It has a pretty downtown and harbor. Surrounded by Spain, they speak Spanglish.
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.
