At the Pigeon Point Lighthouse, there is a nice deck behind the museum and on the side by the ocean. The Pacific is not very pacific in this area. There are sea lions on the rocks and whales going by North or South depending on the time of year. As part of the lighthouse grounds is a hostel.
We like to drive along the coast from Half Moon Bay and stop at the lighthouse. We walk out on the deck and sit on the benches and watch for anything we can see. There is always something. I often think about how often we get in a jet and fly half way around the globe when we could just drive a couple hours (in traffic) from our house.
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.
