Photo: Lily pads in the fountain at Butler House, Kilkenny Ireland. I am sure that many people just focus on the big things during their travels. There is nothing wrong with that. You bring home photos of the Eiffel Tower, the leaning Tower or the White Tower in London - big things. I look at these famous landmarks too. Yet, I am drawn to the average and the ordinary. I will come home with a photo of a dog from Murano Italy or a door in Barcelona. This picture of some lily pads intrigued me. I am not sure why, but there it is.
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.
