"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade wind in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." --Mark Twain

Portugal and Southern Spain - Launching Pad for Discovery of the "New World"


Hi Friends and Family!

I'm off again to see another part of this amazing world while I still
can. This year it’s Portugal and Southern Spain. I hope to get around
Portugal from Porto in the north, the home of Port wine to the
southern shores where Portuguese explorers first sailed to explore the
“new worlds.” Also I’ll visit parts of Southern Spain – Sevilla,
Granada, Ronda and then end up in Madrid in the north – exploring the
home of the Flamenco Dance, the incredible Alhambra fortress, and the
birthplace of bull fighting. Come along with me, I'll enjoy having
you. Trains, Planes, boats, buses and trams will be my mode of travel
for a few weeks.

will be found in the "archives" here on the blog along with some
postings from my prior trips

Talk to you on the road!!
