“I am a part of all that I have seen."

Tennyson wrote "I am a part of all that I have seen", it suits me to a tee.  And what I have seen is all a part of me.  Whether it's enjoying a stop at a cafe in France, whisking across Alaska by train, ferrying to an island in the Mediterranean, or staring out the back of the family station wagon watching cacti wave good bye -- travel is one of my greatest pleasures. 

One look at this picture:  I am warm, I can taste the citron pressé,  and it's July in France all over again.
