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.

Gold Doors of the Baptistry, Florence Italy

The gold doors of the Baptistry in Florence draw many people and cameras. They are pretty, but they are fake.  The real doors were taken down for safekeeping and are in the museum behind the Duomo. The museum is worth a visit and will likely not be busy because the tourists are out petting the pig or looking at David. Not that David or the pig are a waste, but the small museums hold a good deal. This is a photo of the real thing.
