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.

Seville still likes Columbus

Christopher Columbus is no longer a big deal in the United States.
We know he didn't discover America although he did sail to the Americas.
But, two places that still celebrate him are Barcelona and Seville Spain.
Barcelona has a tower with a statue of Columbus pointing to America 
- only it posts more toward Africa.
In the big cathedral in Seville has his tomb.
