But that&#8217;s okay it&#8217;s about travel and I like to travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Where is the one place you would never want to go on vacation that other people seem to love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Hard to answer this one. Given enough money, time and energy there might be no place that I wouldn&#8217;t go.&nbsp;Never say never.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">But there is a priority list, a hierarchy of places that attract me. Let&#8217;s start with continents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">Europe. Can&#8217;t beat the history, food and culture there. I&#8217;ve been several times and it&#8217;s still at the top of my list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">North America. Still lots of places here I&#8217;d like to see.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">Australia and New Zealand which may include Fiji, Cook Islands, Samoa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">Africa &#8211; I&#8217;d like to go to North Africa &#8211; Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, and Israel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">Asia, yes ok I&#8217;d go to Japan, Thailand, Bali<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:20px\">Central and South America<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Machu Picchu in South America seems to be a pretty popular destination lately. Many people I know have gone or want to go but it doesn&#8217;t interest me. So Machu Picchu is my answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Now here it is your moment of mosaic. It is the Orpheus mosaic from the Archeological Museum in Istanbul, Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/musingsandmosaics.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/11\/istanbul-archaeological-museum-orpheus-mosaic-floor-section.jpg\" alt=\"Orpheus Mosaic\" class=\"wp-image-480\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Orpheus Mosaic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time to use the prompt for today&#8217;s post.
