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.

Portugal, Belgium and the Netherlands
 
We just returned from a trip. As in the past, we sent a report home to friends and family, as we traveled.  My husband, George, writes these reports, and put in the pictures.  I always post those reports on the blog - on the side column, under Trip Reports.  If you would like to read about our latest adventures you can go to the Trip Report column and click on the Portugal trip.  We had a good time, but we always are glad to get back home to our 2 dogs.
