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.

Google Earth Pro



      Using Google Earth Pro to map where you have been is not only easy, it gives you a visual travel history.  As well, I use Google Earth to travel before I go. An example is of a trip we made to the Republic of Ireland. We were going to drive from Dublin around the country and back. I had planned the trip and, for the most part, driven the roads using the program. We found ourselves late on one leg as we had stopped to see some things we had not planned to see. We found ourselves in Lismore somewhat short of our goal of Cobh. No problem. I had "visited" Lismore and knew a couple of bed and breakfasts, I could drive right to one as I had "already" been there. Good stay.
