In 1958 I led a 50 day tour of Europe for 38 adults. We visited Ireland, England, France,
Belgium, the Netherlands, Lichtenstein, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy,
Vatican City, Portugal, and Spain.
Since then I’ve been to Venezuela, Mexico, the Bahamas, and Canada. I have
spent five days on the Nile; ventured into the Great Burial Chamber in the Giza
Pyramid; walked on the Great Wall of China; shopped in Hong Kong; went on
safari in Kenya and Tanzania; and toured Ireland a second time with an Irish
singer who introduced me to Irish pub music and Guinness.
New Zealand proved to be a wonderful place as I toured the North and
South Islands. I also had stops in Fiji and Hawaii. I have driven across the
United States several times using different routes.
Each one of these trips opened new worlds and adventures and interesting
foods.
What an education! Travel
has been – and is – my passion.
