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.

Rosh Hashanah = Prague's Jewish Cemetery

One of the most sobering places where we are called to remember Fascism is in Prague.
There is a cemetery in the Jewish section. A memorial holds the names of Jews killed in WWII.
Outside there are graves. Of interest to me, people put rocks on graves rather than flowers.
Flowers fade, socks do not.
This is a place to think about what immoral men of power can do.
May our world never let that memory fade.
