September 14, 2007
Thanks for looking at this travelogue. It is not a typical travelogue, however, so you should know this going in...
The date for this entry shows up as 1973; I made it that way, so this would always be the 1st entry on the list. 1972 has no relevance to anything for any other reason.
Anyway, today I bought the book, 1,000 Places To See Before You Die by Patricia Schultz. I have thumbed through the book before, and I have seen the TravelChannel show with the nauseating couple that hosts it. But now I am finally "an owner" of said tome.
It is intriguing to think that you could put 1,000 places in a book out of all the places in the world. Certainly, no such book will satisfy everyone or anyone, really. But if you are anal like me, and like lists, it's a great jumping off point, and it's fun to look at and say, "oh, I've been there." Or, "ooooh, I would love to go there."
So, all this travelogue consists of, is my list of places I have been that is within the book in question. I will include pictures whenever possible, and some comments and memories also. When I have a travelogue already for that place, I will point the reader in that direction for more details of the trip (or look at the date to find it). I am not recycling my travelogues however; I am actually going into more detail on these places, at least to some degree, and I sometimes add more pictures of that particular place than on the original travelogue. If you don't like lists, though, you need not look any further. ;)
Taken from the book:
"The world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only one page." by St. Augustine of Hippo

Update--
I am now going to start adding entries from Patricia Schultz's other book, "1,000 Places to See Before You Die in the USA and Canada."
Since some entries are in both books they will be marked with (World/US&C). If the place is just in her first book then it will say (World). If it is only in the US & Canada book, it will say (US&C).
This travelogue will always be a work in progress.
