Welcome Back!
Proud to relaunch my travel site for upcoming travels in 2017. While the planning is still going on for 2017, I’d like to take this opportunity to remind you where I’ve been the last few years……
The cows in Switzerland that had bells on their necks…. ah the sound, I can still remember it…. music to my South Dakota ears…..
taken part in cuisines from many nations……
ah… the Swiss fondue (ok, we ate it in the summer, but you’ll never find a Swiss doing that as it is a hardy winter food)… we are tourists after all….
and cruised to many southern nations….
The experiences of meeting new people from around the world and even some of our fellow Americans on the tours that we went on is something we will never forget. We gained friendships that have continue after many years.
We discussed American politics with Aussies and New Zealanders who just don’t understand why we do not have National Healthcare plus 6 weeks of mandatory vacation each year. Though it sounds good, I often wonder how such benefits are paid over the long run if the individuals are not working (pre-ACA). The presidential politics were certainly discussed last vacation as was Brexit. I’m sure our travels in 2017 will once again start some political discussions. Just mentioning the name Trump abroad began a quick narrative, but this year, once again the combination of Trump and Brexit I’m sure will lead many discussions.
I’ve traveled to Mexico, many of the Caribbean Islands, most of the European countries, and I’ve been to Africa and Asia. While South America, Australia, and the South Pole are continents I haven’t stepped foot on YET, they just may make it to my ‘bucket list’.
