Day 2 – Moncton

Posted on September 3, 2017 by If It Was Today

We spent pretty much all of today driving. It is, after all, a road trip, and this is one of the days focused on the road. Fortunately it was a sunny day – not quite as perfect as yesterday, but … Continue reading →

Day 1 – Quebec City

Posted on September 3, 2017 by If It Was Today

We had a leisurely start, getting away around 11:00 AM under clear blue skies. Perfect convertible weather. The drive to Quebec City was uneventful, which is actually a very good thing. Because of the Labour Day weekend, hotels were fully … Continue reading →

Posted on November 27, 2016 by If It Was Today

Odds and Ends

Posted on November 26, 2016 by If It Was Today

Another quiet day as we approach the end of our time in Barcelona. We didn’t do much of anything today – just walked, nowhere in particular. As always, we were amazed at the layers of beauty the city has to … Continue reading →

Something Different

Posted on November 26, 2016 by If It Was Today

Today we took it easy – even by our standards. Our guide book includes a number of self-guided walking tours, so we decided to check out the walk through the area where we are staying. I’ve already covered many of … Continue reading →

Park Guell

Posted on November 25, 2016 by If It Was Today

Some people approach travel like a to-do list, working hard to cross as many locations as possible off their list. We take a different approach. It’s fun to pretend, however briefly, that we live in a city. Try to experience … Continue reading →

Sagrada Familia

Posted on November 22, 2016 by If It Was Today

When Gaudi began work on the Sagrada Familia 1883, he knew he would never live to see its completion. Even today, there is still a decade of work to finish construction. The cathedral offers an imposing view, even though it … Continue reading →
