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.

Smallest and most dramatic memorial: Budapest

On the quay along the Danube in Budapest there is a row of bronze shoes.
These represent a day when the Nazis made the Jews take off their shoes
because leather was valuable. When the shoes were off
the people were killed and their bodies pushed into the river.
