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.

Happy Thanksgiving to My Readers in the USA

Thanksgiving is a holiday that is distinctively American.  So for readers in other countries, I know this is a holiday that you do not celibrate.  We have much to be thankful for in this country and today is a day to express our thanks.  We tend to celibrate by cooking a huge turkey with all of the side dishes and pies for dessert, and eating WAY too much.  Not the healthiest of holidays, and then it is quickly followed by all the sweets of Christmas.  But for all my readers who reside in the USA, I would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving, and I hope that you do have many things that you are thankful for this year.  Enjoy your dinner.
