Amsterdam This trip has been about contrasts. Languages with too many consonants (Croatian) versus those with too many vowels (Dutch). We have had some of the best food ever and some of the most mediocre. We have experienced a wide variety of weather: hot, cold, humid, dry, rainy, sunny — even a bit of higher… Read more

Dolomites Breathtaking, grandiose, stunning, majestic, gorgeous, gobsmacking, magnificent. The views, the hikes, the wildflowers and the food. We have enjoyed some of the best in our lives of each category in the Dolomites. Here are some photos so you can have a glimpse of what we mean. Read more

WOW, Wow, wow! I don’t quite know how to describe the last week here in Jordan. Jam packed with antiquities, fantastic food, gracious people, bizarre landscapes, indescribable beauty and yet another item off our bucket list – Petra! It is interesting and essential to note the effect of the conflict in Gaza on area tourism… Read more

We leave Mexico City tomorrow very early for Amman, Jordan. It’s been a marvelous month. At 7200′ elevation and a population of 17,000,000 this metro area is massive. Yes, it is intense, loud, crowded, vibrant, a varied collection of neighborhoods that would take years to really understand. 1/5 of Mexico’s population lives here in seeming… Read more
