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.

Canals and Bikes: Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a city with many personas. It is known on one hand to be free wheeling with sex and drugs. On the other hand it is a lovely city of churches, waterways, and International trade. It has a very walkable central city. It is a city with more bicycles than people, and you will notice that when walking around. The canal maintenance people will tell you that an equal number of bikes are in the water. Getting into Amsterdam by train lets you see what the rural areas of Netherlands look like.
