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.

Paris at first glance
We had landed at Paris after a long non-stop out of San Francisco. We took a cab from CDG to our rented flat. We knew it was central, but not exactly sure how central. We took our luggage to the second floor apartment (in Paris that is actually the third floor as the bottom floor is "G" for ground) via a small elevator. We freshened up and went down to explore. A half a block and we walked through the arches of an old building and this is what we saw. That old building was the Louvre and this is what we saw. We were ready for three weeks of adventure. We were hooked.
