CURRENTLY VISITING HAWAII!!

See the World for Free

The idea here is to TRAVEL THE WORLD regardless of time or budget. It dawned on me one day that even if I had unlimited time and money (which I definitley do not), I still couldn't see everything in the world that I'd like to see--I'm simply not going to live long enough to do it.

But I had a bit of brain wave and soon after the travel envelope was born. This is an actual physical envelope. I typed the name of every country in the world, plus every state in the US on little slips of paper which I then put into the envelope. In the beginning we (myself, my husband, Dave and daugher Catherine) would draw out a slip at random at the beginning of the month and that's where we would go---at least in our minds. We grab some books about the country from the library and put them in our bathroom to look at. We also check out some videos about the country if any. We check it out on googleearth, listen to the music, try the food, maybe even attempt to learn a dance or celebrate a festival.

After the first two years we discovered that even virtual traveling can be tiring, so we travel now whenever I happen to be in the mood.

It's great fun. I especially love it when people I meet have been to the place I'm "visiting" in real life, or get excited and have some virtual adventures of their own. I hope that anyone who comes across this blog will feel welcome to come with us on the trip!



You have a standing reservation to see it all!

June 13, Munich to Salzburg

A good day to be in Munich. Munich was celebrating it's birthday (857 or so years old). There were tables set up in the Marionplatz and lots of food and music.




Later they rode the bus to Salzburg, had a little free time and then saw The Magic Flute at the famous puppet theater.

The show included the following dialogue:

"I am the princess"
"You are the princess"
"You must be the princess"
"yes, I am the princess"
"you have a white nose; you must be the princess."
"Yes, I am the princess."
