Dreams of Traveling

Due to mom’s broken hip, the move to Nevada, and COVID-19, I have not been on a trip since fall of 2018. This is the longest time that I have ever gone without a vacation. I don’t like it! I miss planning trips, taking trips, and doing photo books of trips after they are over.

I enjoy making photo books and mom and I have been spending a lot of time looking at both the books and all the photos she has from all her travels. I find that a physical book of photos is way, way more convenient and more likely to be looked at than scrolling through pictures on a computer screen.

Thanks to the cruising I’ve done, I get travel brochures almost every day in the mail. I now toss them away without even glancing at them: I don’t want to find a wonderful trip that can’t possibly be possible!

Instead of focusing on where I can’t go, I’ve decided to focus on all the wonderful places I have been. I have been privileged to see way more than the average person. My travel dreams now, then, are of the past; things like:

Sunrise over the Taj Mahal
Sunset over Rio de Janeiro and Christ the Redeemer Statue
Moonrise over Luxor

Hope your dreams are as pleasant as mine!
