Art of the Travel Journal








One last peek..
gentle reader, 
before I close this book...









and set it on the shelf to snuggle 
with the other 
travel journals in my office  ..











So many things 
about this trip were unusual..

like the butterfly pavilion 
on Harvest Caye..
and knowing my fondness for them

it made the trip so memorable..









and tiny sea shells,
my love of all things, tiny
 was fulfilled..


we  visited ports of call
that were unknown to us

and shared foods that were different from anything we have
tasted..








it is a most wonderful experience 
to be a seasoned traveler and yet feel
the thrill of parts unknown..

and to fill in the blanks that you
did not know existed...






"The best journeys answer questions that in the beginning you didn't even think to ask"

Jeff Johnson






The only thing we can do is 
answer when the sea calls..
when wanderlust
strikes..
and our feet itch..


I say..
surrender..



Ciao, Ciao!
