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.

Old and Modern Barcelona
Coming into the center city in Barcelona in a taxi, I had my camera ready for first impressions. I saw this lovely building coming up on the left and I liked the roof details, Pulling up, I noticed that the detail was as much advertising as it was architecture. Not that product placement is not seen around the world. Not that Coca-Cola is not the number one product advertised. I just find it interesting. Then I think about Times Square, New York where you cannot see the buildings at all.
