MouseMap for Travel Stories

We love to travel, and 2020 was supposed to be a big travel year for us. Like the rest of you, that hasn't happened.

We're still dreaming about travel, reading about new destinations, and making (tentative) plans for the future. We hope all of you are well and staying safe... and that you find some inspiration here for YOUR future travels.

With vaccines arriving, let's hope we can be traveling again in 2021!

Our MouseMap for travel stories is part two of our site map.

We really do want to help you find your way around the world...

...And we thought these travel stories could help by telling you some of the things we've encountered.   

The Mouse Site Map is more the “how to” of travel:

...tips on packing, planning, hotels, driving, health and preparation.  

This page give you some stories about the places we’ve been…

Some itineraries we’ve used that we think worked well, and could work for you too.  

The last few years, we’ve written pages about our travels each year. This started as way to share with friends and family… but you, our readers, have become our friends, so lets start with those yearly recaps…  

2007  2008 2010 2011 2012 2013 

2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020

We hope our MouseMap for travel stories helps you find your destination. We want to help show you what it's like to travel in some of these destinations, spark your interest and encourage you to travel.

Remember our motto: We believe that travel promotes understanding and understanding promotes peace.

Rather search than read through our list? Just enter your destination or the critter you'd like to see or camp or castle you'd like to visit in one of the search boxes to the right or at the bottom of the page... we want to make it easy to find it on our site!

So with a click of your mouse, start here for travels around the world.

A few years ago, I wrote a travel article a day. That was a bit much, and even though I wrote them I didn't always get them put up here. Just for historical reference you can see what I wrote.

We hope our Site Map for Travel Stories has helped you find a destination.... one that you might want to visit.

Happy travels... even if you don't travel the world... just remember that life is a journey... embrace and enjoy it! Judy and Mark
