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.

St. Canice, Kilkenny Ireland

"Saint Canice's has been at the heart of worship in Kilkenny and Ireland for over 800 years." - reads their website. This is a photo of the altar. The leaders of the church give tours. Worth a visit, it is at one end of the main district and accessible. It has a tower and is located in the middle of an old cemetery.

Of interest to Americans -or at least for me - a crypt contains a relative of Barack Obama from his mother's side. Indeed, he is around fifty percent Irish.
