Looking Back

 

I have covered quite a bit of ground here at RalphCarlsonBlog.

I started the blog thinking that I would report on quirky and interesting things that I would find and that someone else might enjoy. As I worked on the blog, however, a voice seemed to take over and I posted on more personal things. Some things I have learned in my many years of experience. Other things I am seeking to learn more and better. So over these months I have posted on quite a number of topics. If you haven’t followed me over those months, there may be posts that you would like but wouldn’t find, or look for. So to help out here is a categorized list of some of what I think are the most interesting.

I will leave it at that.  If any of these posts  touches or entertains you in any way, please leave me a comment.

Well we made it!

San Marco fro the Vaporetto

San Marco from the Vaporetto

As planned, we boarded the plan in San Francisco, the first leg of our trip to Venice Italy.  We started on American and transferred to Iberia in Los Angeles. I expected to lug the bags from the American terminal to the International Terminal but the bags were checked all the way to Venice.  We never saw them again until we arrived.  It all went as advertised.  I even slept on the way.  The transfer in Madrid was confusing but it all worked out and Madrid was our only encounter with passport inspection.  Italy doesn’t know or care that we are here. So far it has all been wonderful, learning the ropes in Venice.  This is just a placeholder for more posts later.  I  am attaching some photos just as placeholders.
