About this blog

Once again, our travels might seem random on first look, but there is a pattern. The main purpose of this trip, of course, was to attend the wedding of our daughter in York, England. Then it was off to Italy, where Nancy had hoped to find some warm sun before returning to her job. We had some sun at times, but it is a cool spring in Europe. We brought our 26-year-old son along to Italy so that he could experience a part of Europe he hadn't seen before. Finally, as Nancy and our son headed home to work, I took off to Greece to track down Byzantine history, experience Greek Easter and revisit a land Nancy and I enjoyed some 30 years ago as backpackers.
