Welcome to my travels. On this site you'll find recent trips and some very old trips. You'll note that for some trips I wrote very detailed reports (at least in the beginning), for others, I didn't even take notes of where I was on what dates. Nevertheless, I've done my best to document, to the extent I can, all of my major trips.



Day 54

Sevilla, Spain


We took a tour to Sevilla -- Alcazar, Barrio de Santa Cruz (the Jewish quarter), lunch at a hotel, saw doves in the Parque de Maria Luisa, took a Caleche ride and saw the Plaza de Espana.

Day 53

Marbella, Spain


Went to the beach in the morning, and drove to Marbella. Walked around. I bought a cute little green dress that I'm amazed I can wear. Dinner back at the hotel.
