An amazing thing has happened, we have free internet access at our hotel, this is a big first because we have been paying around $15 an hour no matter where we have stayed, for at least the last month, it takes the fun out of electronic communications, that's for sure!

Of course we are here in far western Sicily for what reason I know not...it is extremely HOT, so dry it is dead brown and I have to tell you this city - is just plain ugly - Trapani is the name but Trappin-me is probably a better way to say it. Sicily has some gorgeous coast, but not here. We wanted to go from Sicily on over to Tunisia in Africa using the ferry that leaves from here. Finally got the schedule once we got in...only goes on Saturdays. Then you have to stay in Tunisia a week, hmmm not sure that is a good idea. But then again you never know. Hope everybody is doing fine!!!

The picture attached is from Kotor, Montenegro: now that, unlike here, is a beautiful place to go, more to come soon

    Kent Zimmerman, Christine Lanier Zimmerman

    Kent and Christine Zimmerman upon the graduation of their son from college, left their great jobs and headed out into the world on an extended adventure. Their travels have taken them from Buenos Aires, Argentina to Kivilahti, Finland and through four continents. Along the way they have spent time studying Spanish in the wackiest Spanish school in South America and learned that their hundred dollar pizza in Norway will pay for two weeks of surf side lodging in Ecuador.

    Kent was the CEO of the University of Colorado Alumni Association for 13 years and spent a decade as the Executive Vice President of the Boulder, Colorado Chamber of Commerce.

    Christine (pronounced Christina in German) was raised in Hamburg, Germany, and taught German, Spanish and French in a Colorado high school. She loves to try anything new and is most known for her smile and putting up with Kent.

    The two of them, along with their son Lars, now working in Boulder have always known that they were not quite normal...and this adventure just proves it.
