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.

Venice/Ash Wednesday


     Ash Wednesday, the day after Fat Tuesday, marks the beginning of Lent and the end to Carnival. The masks come off and the annual pilgrimage begins toward Easter. Venice is just the right place to celebrate this process with its long history of Carnival and the decadence of it. I love Venice and the moodiness of it. It changes with the seasons and celebrates the changes in life like the moving tides.
