Hit the road!

by garridogal - last update: Oct 18, 2009

If I only had a brain...

The world's most beautiful city? Could be.

Life's Long Strange Trip

After years of saying that I need to return to Paris I finally did, back in June.

And I went to Versailles too!

I think my pages are now complete. But you never know do you?

Travels with an old friend

Michelle and I have been friends for almost 20 years. And yet, in all that time, we'd never travelled together! When she decided to spend a month in Paris - for college credit, no less - how could I NOT join her for a week?
On top of Paree!
My Dutch Boys and I

And speaking of good friends...

I was so happy that Brian and Jeroen came over from Holland to join us for the weekend!

However...

This summer I've taken a few local road trips and tried to not only appreciate the beauty nearby but to channel the history all around me.
"Can you feel my aura sistah?"
Oh Jeeeze....!

An old favorite

I found VT as a result of researching my first solo trip, to Amsterdam. That's why I'm keeping this picture on my homepage. That plus the fact that it makes me laugh.

I was taking a canal tour and as one does when one travels alone, I asked someone to take my picture. He was sitting across from me and my intent was that he take the picture from where he was. But noooo. He stood up, he moved back, he moved up, he aimed up he aimed down. He probably thought I wanted his family to be in the picture with me. Maybe he thought the family wanted to be in my picture. The result is what you see here. It looks as if I farted and everybody knew....
