Travel Stories - March 2020
Nothing Beats a Good Road Trip!
Jill and I went for a ride on the Ring of Kerry, one of the most scenic routes in Ireland. We saw lakes, mountains, rugged coasts, many small villages and towns, and more. The scenery was breathtaking!
The Heart of the Mediterranean
Debra and I spent a day on the island of Sicily, the Heart of the Mediterranean. The Godfather. A medieval city. An active volcano. Mama Mia - it was an extraordinary day!
Viking Longboats (and More!)
David and I went on a self-guided tour of Oslo. A formidable fortress. A beautiful wharf. The seats of a vibrant democracy. An awesome Viking museum. And more. It was an awesome day!
Art, Wine & Oom-pah-pah!
Jill and I spent a lovely day wandering through the Midtown district of Ruidoso. Colorful murals. Delicious food. Wine tastings. Even an Oktoberfest. We had a great time!
A Roman Trifecta!
Debra and I spent the day at three monumental sites - the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Trevi Fountain. Steeped in history and culture, they were grand!
Down East in Bar Harbor
​Debra and I went sightseeing Down East in Bar Harbor Maine, our first trip to the Pine Tree State. We strolled the quaint town, had lobster for lunch, and enjoyed the scenic beauty of Acadia National Park. It was a magnificent day!
Permission to Come Aboard, Sir!
​Debra and I boarded the Viking Mani to start our our 8-day Rhine River Cruise. It was a glorious day that ended with a first for Debra and me - we watched as the Mani navigated a lock. Outstanding!
The City of Gardens
​Debra and I were in Victoria BC,  where we toured the most beautiful gardens we had ever seen and strolled through a "rain forest" filled with thousands of free-flying butterflies. It was glorious!
