Visiting Big Bend is the trip of a lifetime! There is so much to see and do there! Lots of history and ecosystems to explore

Terlingua is the ‘ghost town’ to the west of the park – likely kept alive from its mining days today by tourism of the park next door.  Terlingua was known for its cinna…

West Texas has lots of history to learn about!

West Texas has lots of history to learn about!

We drove west, through ghost towns, and finally got to Marathon, which is the town closest to the north entrance to Big Bend. It had a lot more going on than anywhere else, but we kept on with the …

We recently took to West Texas - here's the beginning of the trip into the Chihuahuan Desert!

My Mom and I drove down to Texas with Big Bend as the destination over Thanksgiving week. I looked at the map prior to leaving and saw a few other National Park Service sites to visit. Two were mos…

https://adventuresofannad.wordpress.com/2025/09/04/northern-indiana-and-southern-michigan A few months ago, I traveled through Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan, seeing places I had seen before and those I hadn't. It's a lovely part of the world.

I was part of a study to eat broccoli sprouts in Ann Arbor, so I had two weekends, a month apart, to visit places that aren’t too far away, but that I rarely go to, with my Mom.  River R…

Our last stop on our European tour. Moldavites are pretty neat!

Since we’ve been to Prague twice, I hoped to take a day trip somewhere new. I’d already visited places like Kutná Hora and Terezín, so we settled on Český Krumlov—a spot Ryan had considered before.…

A short but full visit to Brno brought many experiences!

Our introduction to Brno came in the form of our first statue—a black obelisk that doubles as an astronomical clock. Like many cities, Brno needed a showpiece clock to rival the famous ones in plac…

Bratislava was a gem on our trip - we highly recommend it (and maybe more than one night there!)

Bratislava was a gem on our trip - we highly recommend it (and maybe more than one night there!)

Bratislava was a gem on our trip – we loved it up in the less than 24 hours in Slovakia. We dropped our stuff at a place that holds luggage and made our way to the Old Town. We entered throug…

While Vienna is full of extravagance and may feel a bit over the top, we found some fantastic things to do during our short time there!

We arrived in Vienna—a massive metropolis—and successfully figured out the public transit system, which felt like quite an accomplishment! We had the evening free and nowhere in particular to go, s…

There are places, they always exist, but you don't think about it, until you remember that it was there when you were there, and it's still there now, being itself, other people are there, and it's a different kind of beautiful than when you were there and you're missing it in its spring glory.

I happened to visit Salzburg twice on the trip – neither one planned in advance.  The first day, my Mom and I took a day tour through Radius Tours ( to the city, an overview of traveling…

Visiting Munich is a history lesson, it’s a place to celebrate old weddings (Oktoberfest) and also to move forward to a more dignifying society. Munich is a place to come to terms with the past, and inspiration to make the world a better place in the future.

We’ve been to Munich a few times, but this trip began with something different—a Third Reich walking tour with Radius Tours. Grounding in place and time is important, and learning v…

A short trip on the Romatic Road to Harburg Castle and Rothenburg was a nice way to get away from the city and see more of Germany!

We took a day trip to Rothenburg on der Tauber. My Mom had been there once a long time ago and said it was a cute town. It was something to do, see another place. We took a…
