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.

In the Dolomites, Sud Tyrol, Italy
Nine years ago, Mr. Cool went for a walk at the top of the gondola that comes straight up out of La Villa, Italy. The top includes a cafe, ski area and the beginning point for a long cross-country skiing area. While in the summer, it is at altitude and cool. Note that it is no where near the top of anything except this intermediate mountain. La Villa is a wonderful, tiny village, where we stayed several nights headquartered for traveling around the Sud Tyrol (South Tyrolean Alps) of Italy, We drove the area in a rental out of Verona. Also visited Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and the Italian Lakes in a loop of driving. Retirement is nice. (Photo by Marietta McLellan)
