Travel Quotes

Mark Twain said, “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” Maya Angelou

I would like to welcome new readers to my travel blog. If you are reading this for the first time, then I suggest you first read my introduction which I wrote last November when I started this. It explains why I am writing this and it gives you a little about my background. And most importantly it explains about my list and how it works.

Home From Scotland & Ireland

We just returned from a 3 week vacation to Scotland and Ireland.  We went over  to visit our friends Myra and Malcolm.  We met them originally in 2001 when we were in Spain, and have traveled with them off and on since then.  They visited us in 2010, so it was our turn to visit them.  They showed us around Scotland and we took a road trip with them through Ireland.  We had a great time, and if you would like to read more about our trip, as well as see pictures, then go to the side column and look for Trip Reports From Trips We Have Taken and the bottom one is our most recent trip.  As in the past, the reports are actually emails that my husband writes home to family members when we travel.  I have taken his emails and combined them into one report, and then I added pictures.  I hope you enjoy reading about our most recent adventures.
