Details of my time in Italy and world travels, along with other random musings. Monday, April 26, 2010. Here Comes the Rain. Saturday morning we explored the Western Canal Belt and the Nine Streets District on our way to the Jordaan area for their Saturday morning organic market. Unfortunately, our arrival to the market was perfectly timed with a downpour. We attempted to dart between the awnings of the vendors but eventually gave up. Another time I suppose. I give you one guess as to what we had. I'...

http://taylormadeadventure.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Details of my time in Italy and world travels, along with other random musings. Monday, September 28, 2009. A few final reflections. First, about the people.

I am so programed to say "si" or "yes" in Italian that I said "si" instead of "oui" over and over again, even commenting aloud "Ah! I'm still speaking Italian!

http://taylormadeadventure.blogspot.com/2010/04/tulips-and-more-tulips.html
Details of my time in Italy and world travels, along with other random musings. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Tulips and More Tulips. The Monday after Easter was our last day in Amsterdam. Our flight wasn't until 8 that evening so we had plenty of time left to explore Keukenhof, the tulip and flower park. There was a direct shuttle from the airport to the park so we put our luggage in a storage locker and hopped on the bus. April 29, 2010 at 1:09 AM. Are those lilacs in the 3rd pic?
