I cant think of a better city than Seattle as the very first UNESCO City of Literature. The unique and massive Seattle Public Library, itself an icon of literature, stands as a visible reminder of this citys great literary reputation. They say the long, wet, dreary winters, and the abundance of coffee shops make it perfect for readers.
For starters, the four decades old Elliott Bay Bookstore attr Read on...
Aix is an hour drive from Avignon. We visit the Musee Granet named after famous local painter Francois Marius Granet. The museum houses a collection of French painters from 16th century on. We get an audio guide and enjoy art by Picasso (of course his art is everywhere). They have a self portrait by Rembrandt (he is Dutch, how did he get in this museum)? They have more than ten Cezanne masterpiece Read on...
Gestern war eine kleine Krise. Ich war am frhen Nachmittag so mde, dass ich mir ein Bett suchte und mich sofort hinlegte. Ich dachte an eine kurze Erholungspause und wollte dann in dem Ort herumspazieren und in ein leckeres Cafe (das erste seit Kiefl) gehen und dort alles probieren, was nur halbwegs gut ausschaut.

August 2020, Corona: Code Yellow and few tourists in Denmark. It was a warm summer, too warm for the Danish. We travelled by car from Holland mainly through rural areas to avoid crowds. The pleasant summer sunny days added special colours to Denmark. Searching for Denmark historic Viking past we visited: JELLING: Rune Stones erected in the 10th century by King Gorm the Old and his son Harald Bluet Read on...
The other day I had a friend ask me about how we decided where to stay when we were traveling internationally. My friend wondered how we found the places and knew the hotels would meet whatever standards we may have for that moment or that experience. I have booked international hotels hundreds of times, but when she asked this question I sort of stumbled over my response. How do I explain somethi Read on...

of masked fans attending a football game at Georgia Tech in 1918, during the Spanish flu pandemic.

As luck would have it, one of my favorite teams, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, were playing at Georgia Tech on Halloween afternoon. This game was on the calendar before the pandemic, but originally Read on...
