The tar in the street starts to melt from the heat
And the sweats runnin’ down from my hair
I walked 20 miles and I’m dragging my feet
And I’ll walk 20 more I don’t care
And I’ll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone
I’m like a ghost some people can’t see
Others drive by and stare
A shadow that drifts by the side of the road
It’s like I’m not even there
And I’ll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone
Well I’ve never been part of the game
The life that I live is my own
All that I know is that I was born
To wander this world all alone, all alone
Some people are born with their lives all laid out
And all their success is assured
Some people work hard all their lives for nothin’
They take it and don’t say a word
They don’t say a word
Sometimes it’s like I don’t even exist
Even God has lost track of my soul
Why else would he leave me out here like this
To wander this world all alone
And I’ll wander this world, wander this world
Wander this world, wander this world all alone
–Jonny Lang, “Wander This World”
On our first full day in Bruges, we woke up at a leisurely time and skipped breakfast – and ended up having a lovely day winging it in Bruges, the city of endless nooks and crannies. Since we were still waiting for our test results, we decided to take a long walk in search of…
Easily hopping on a train from our flight from Brussels Airport, our direct Brussels to Bruges route lasted less than 90 minutes. It was a rainy day and given our level of exhaustion, we decided to grab a taxi at the train station in Bruges rather than walk or take the bus (plus we didn’t…
Arriving in Brussels was not an easy feat in the time of COVID, in the time of US Thanksgiving, and in the unfortunate time of Omicron travel. We left Denver Wednesday morning to check in for our Air Canada one-stop flight to Brussels via Montreal, only to find that our first leg was delayed so…
Traveling to our Coeur d’Alene winter getaway We got in to the Spokane Airport from Denver on Thursday night for a four night Coeur d’Alene winter getaway for our anniversary weekend. I surprised Brendan with this trip over Christmas (well, semi-surprise, because he ultimately did guess it) and had previously purchased the tickets from DEN…
After a day of hiking and fine dining at The Compound, our final full day’s adventure would consist more of museums and spontaneous wanderings – the highlight of course being Meow Wolf. We woke up pretty late, missing breakfast at the hotel, so we decided to find a coffee shop / cafe in town instead…
After a great first couple of days in Santa Fe we were excited to keep the adventure going while fine dining and hiking Santa Fe. On Saturday, our second full day, we decided to find a long mountain hike in the Sangre de Cristo mountain range, just a few miles from Santa Fe. But first,…
