I had planned not to renew my WordPress blog account when it expires, that is until I read this very short poem by Mary Oliver among the tributes after her death in January:
Instructions for living a life.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
Since I’m not traveling at the moment (next trip starts in September), I thought I’d continue to tell about some earlier places I was fortunate enough to be astonished by, so back to Egypt! Next Friday: Valley of the Kings!










Live all that you can. Life is short.
Thanks, Nancy. Past travels are as important as future ones,

Good to hear! I’m still in South Kona, and still lovin’ it. Definitely suits me better than the rain forest.
