Origins.........
Warren, New Jersey
I've often wondered how I contracted the 'travel bug'. I've concluded that it is multi-determined. Our family ventured no farther than 300 miles, on its once yearly visit to other family members. My world was small! My geography teacher could not have been an inspiration as she was duller than dull. Perhaps the 'bug' was brought home via an uncle who periodically traveled to places that sounded ever so exotic and mysterious to me..and who sometimes accomplished this by sailing what we now recognize as the grand olde dame ocean liners.
Whatever its roots, I have truly enjoyed seeing different parts of the world. The sights are often magnificent, often seeming almost older than time, the cultues rich, the people charming and then, there are 'the stories' to tell. So once again it's travels with Charlie, although certainly not a la Steinbeck.
We're off to Asia, boarding Seabourn Quest in Hong Kong and disembarking in Dubai, with many interesting stops along the way.
