		<title>Seven years!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I started this blog seven years ago! Can you believe it? I can&#8217;t. LOL! On the virtual traveling front, I can&#8217;t seem to get excited about the offerings on my calendar. I need to work up some of my own locations. In the meantime&#8230;. Today in history: 1900 – Hawaii became a territory of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Has anyone seen my brain?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I swear, I just can&#8217;t seem to dredge up anything fun to say here lately. I think I need a vacation. For real. There&#8217;s not a lot going on otherwise. My life is boring which I guess isn&#8217;t necessarily a bad thing. Reading: I&#8217;m still re-reading the Lord Peter Wimsey series but I took a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Get your kicks&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Route 66. This isn&#8217;t off my calendar. I haven&#8217;t been thrilled with the locations it&#8217;s been giving me, so I decided to pick my own place. Though Route 66 covers a lot of territory. The highway starts in Chicago and runs all the way across the country and ends in Santa Monica, California. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Abbey Road</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No, we&#8217;re not going on a Beatles road trip. I&#8217;m going to chat about some of the abbeys in the United Kingdom. Tintern Abbey was founded in 1131 in Wales. The architecture of the ruins spans 400 years. Woburn Abbey is now the country house of the Duke of Bedford and the home of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fernando de Noronha</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never really considered a trip to Brazil, but this particular Brazilian archipelago is pretty cool-looking. Fernando de Noronha lies about 200 miles off the coast of Brazil. The islands are actually what you can see of an underwater mountain range. It has lovely beaches and scuba diving opportunities. And the towering mountains are pretty [...]]]></description>

The ruins are federal property and is run by the National Institute of Anthropology and History. An estimated 1.2 million tourists a year visit. Today in history: 1910 – Henri Fabre [...]]]></description>

		<title>La Grand Place</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re off to Belgium today to visit La Grand Place which is the central square of Brussels. They probably sell sprouts somewhere around there. Or maybe not. The square is surrounded by guildhalls (those are still a thing?), the city&#8217;s Town Hall, And the Breadhouse. Disappointingly, there&#8217;s no bread house there now. it&#8217;s a fancy [...]]]></description>
