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.

Earthquakes and Spain


 This is a column in The Alhambra in Granada Spain. Many years ago, the builders placed a lead layer in their  columns so that they would give and not break in an earthquake. As we have had a number of quakes of late in my home area of California, I have been thinking about those architects and their method. .
