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.

Tips

Amsterdam 
At one time the best day to book flights was Tuesday; it is now Sunday. Remember to check with the State Department before booking. The State Department has guidance on all sorts of issues as well as Visa information. If you are going to Europe you can pack very light and include a foldable bag. anything you do not have you can buy there and not have to lug it that direction. Besides it is fun to shop for necessities in their drug stores and small shops. Do not take Euros with you. Stop at the airport upon landing and use an ATM. I will warn you that in Prague you can get too much if you under estimate the exchange rate. Get your phone set up as a world phone before you go and use it for GPS as well as communicating. I use Consumers Cellular and it costs me little or nothing. Make sure you switch back upon return.
