Visiting history: Eine Bootsfahrt auf der Donau, Juli 2024
"Do you recall that night in June,
Upon the Danube River?
We listened to a Ländler-tune,
We watch'd the moonbeams quiver.
I oft since then have watch'd the moon,
But never, love, Oh! never
Can I forget that night in June,
Upon the Danube River."
~ Charles Hamilton Aide

Each trip, whether it's a local weekend getaway or an international excursion, offers unique experiences that bring us closer and enrich our lives. The thrill of discovering new places, tasting diverse cuisines, and meeting new people fuels our passion for travel, making it an essential part of our family's story. Through our journeys, we learn, grow, and strengthen our family bonds, treasuring every moment spent together.
About this mutt who started it all
This little mutt with a healthy ego inspired in me the idea of creating a website. The site has evolved since but it’s core, seeing hazily, remained intact.
Glida was born in Israel and immigrated to the US in 1996. She’s a mutt with bogus interests and limited social skills, much like her dad. Besides chasing squirrels and bunnies (she never caught one!), she likes her two walks a day — rain or shine — and getting unhealthy treats. Feel free to roam the site and get lost in its forbidden lifelessness.
Sadly, on November 19, 2011, Glida passed away at 17. They say about Israeli natives (such as Glida and I), that we’re like Sabras (Israeli cactus): prickle on the outside and sweet on the inside. Glida, however, was prickle on the outside and prickle on the inside. Gonna miss you tons “Doggy Bag.”
