AMSTERDAM: A LOVELY FIRST IMPRESSION

August 10, 2017August 27, 20172 Comments

August 8 & 9, 2017 Amsterdam: Bikes, Bikes everywhere. When I arrived, a gentleman told me that Amsterdam had 880,000 people AND 2 million bikes! That should tell the story of a city more mobile on 2 wheels than 4. But with that information, you should also know that the bikes rule and as a … Continue reading AMSTERDAM: A LOVELY FIRST IMPRESSION

Last Impressions of Turkey June 1,2015 Well, first off, Turkey is an amazing place...simply a historians dream...there are few places in the world that can claim the history and a true chaotic and complicated one at that...I read a brief historical book to catch up on a few thousand years of their fractious past before … Continue reading LAST IMPRESSIONS OF TURKEY

NEW ADVENTURES IN TURKEY

July 4, 2015July 23, 2017Leave a comment

New Adventures in Turkey! May 25, 2015 Landing in Istanbul was like the western world greeting me with lovely and oddly familiar sights. The convenient thing about booking a tour is that you are met at the airport and can relax about how to get to your hotel...My guy was right there but then he … Continue reading NEW ADVENTURES IN TURKEY

EPHESUS ET AL

Ephesus Et Al June 1, 2015 Well our departure from Cappadocia to Pamakkule was by a 9 pass Mini Van with the 4 Singaporean women and the other couple from Singapore...We had the same driver, who we called Poncho...seemed to be a nickname he picked up because of his way with women. (-: Well he … Continue reading EPHESUS ET AL

Final Blog from Barcelona…Onto Iran

May 7, 2015May 24, 20171 Comment

Plans shifted yet again for my plans to visit Figureres…Seems that little jaunt will have to wait for another time. I woke up with a scratchy throat and feeling quite tired…Besides so many people smoking here, there seems to be little particles in the air that keep catching in my lungs causing coughing fits…It’s happened … Continue reading Final Blog from Barcelona…Onto Iran

A few more Adventures in Barcelona

May 4, 2015May 27, 20176 Comments

As with all adventures there are bumps in the road...I always see them as future stories and not hardship...The great thing about traveling alone is when a bump happens, you are the only one disappointed. (-: I tried to go to Figueres, Dali's hometown...I got a late start...that darn jet lag...but that's ok...it's my holiday … Continue reading A few more Adventures in Barcelona

Vienna is a wonderful pedestrian … Continue reading VIENNA, THE CITY FOR EXPLORING

AUSCHWITZ-BIRKENAU IS SOBERING

May 18, 2004May 29, 2017Leave a comment

Our trip to Auschwitz -Birkenau was sobering...What a staggeringly Horrific place...it was so overwhelming...but the din of tour buses helped distract my mind from the horrific scenes I kept imagining as I walked the camp...the throngs of tourists are a negative and a positive...on the negative side, it seems a bit disrespectful to the 1.5 … Continue reading AUSCHWITZ-BIRKENAU IS SOBERING
