My Travels

Note: I generally watch my page weight, minimizing crap so my site loads quickly and doesn't waste your bandwidth. But most of the travelogues have photos, and in this case, I haven't held back. Expect these pages to be very heavy with images, and to do them justice, they are best viewed on a large monitor, not a phone.
