Hello Again Thoughtful Travelers!  Welcome to today’s thought for March 21, 2016. 

It’s by William Shakespeare, the English poet and playwright, known as the “Bard of Avon”.  He lived from 1564 to 1616.

“Variety is the spice of life.”

So what are your thoughts on today’s quote? Here’s mine:

“This is another one of Shakespeare’s all-purpose quotes, and it certainly applies to travel, for most people anyway.  Some people do want the same destination, same accommodations, and same activities year after year on their vacation.  But most people want to experience as much of life as possible.  They want to see as much of Planet Earth as possible.  And, they want to meet as many different types of fellow Earthlings as possible.  Even tour companies offer many itineraries to multiple destinations filled with a variety of attractions.  So live it up, be adventurous and make new memories every time you travel.” 

Now…here’s the list of all the sources quoted in March.  I hope you’ll stop by each day to enjoy all the interesting and insightful things they have to say.  And leave a comment.  I’d like to hear your thoughts too.  Thanks, and see you tomorrow!
