This is a photo of an old Abbey taken from the Rock of Cashel in Ireland. When we were there on our first visit, I was writing a column for a local newspaper. I did not have a laptop or much access to a computer except in an Internet Cafe. These Cafes were all over in those days. I would write a column and send it in to the editor whenever I could. Those columns were a sort of diary of a trip. Not exactly the quality of "Innocents Abroad", but fun for me. Today, I carry a tablet and phone. There are no Internet cafes around.
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.
