Travel sketchbook. 2026

From Worcester, Massachusetts to France where I walked the pilgrim path from Paris to Fountainbleau with my son and grandson. Fabulous time together!

My grandson Theo.
The village of Rocamadour.
A challenging hike today.
It was even more challenging leaving Rocamadour, hiking up and down the gorges.
Very hot sheep!
Theo said it was harder trip than he thought it would be. But he was a good sport.
Theo wanted to see the catacombs, so we did, of course.

Spring tulips collage.

Originally a watercolor painting that I wasn’t fond of, so I glued pretty pieces of paper over it. It was soooo fun. Now I like it!

We always slept and ate on the ship.

I spent five nights in Colonia de Sacramento. It’s an hour long ferry ride across the Rio de Plata from Buenos Aires, Argentina.





































































































One day I took a bus to Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay. From the bus station walked to the historic center and back to the bus station.







I love Uruguay.

Loved this monument!
