Hello Again Thoughtful Travelers!  Welcome to today’s thought for 
March 16, 2016. 

It’s by Walt Disney, the American creator of Mickey Mouse and lots of cartoons, TV shows, movies, and theme parks.  Disney lived from 1901 to 1966.

“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious, and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

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

“Everyone is born with a certain amount of curiosity.  I think the more curious we are, the more likely we are to travel to many distant places, see many amazing things, and interact with many different cultures.  And as Walt Disney mentioned, the more we move forward, the more we want to see and do.   When we visit an exciting place, we always hear of another one that intrigues us too.  It can become a lifelong obsession.  Ever meet anyone who wants to visit all the national parks?  All the UNESCO World Heritage Sites?  All the Caribbean islands?  Why not?  Travel lets us learn, have fun, and satisfy our curiosity about the world.”

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!
