   Your most memorable journey moment?
   
   We all ask about most memorable journey, but we tend to forget that it is only through moments that our journey becomes unforgettable. It can be anything, from scaling down a momentous mountain to visiting an exquisitely beautiful place, would love to know about your travel moments?

   Climbing Masada, in Israel, before dawn, and then watching the sun rise as we hiked. Incredible.

      I can imagine the feelings of satisfaction and achievement after scaling down a mountain and then witnessing the glory of fading sunlight LeighMC

   Looking at archives in the British Library. So neat to hold a piece of history in such a historical building.

      None of the things you do. Places you been and event you attend will mean much if you dont have someone to share the experience with.   Thats why I choose my wife in the Journey we called life

   My Granddaughter, Holly, was born at just 24 weeks and 3 days. My daughter's waters broke 3 days earlier, at exactly 24 weeks. She called me at 9pm and at 9.40pm I had arrived, with my wife, at the hospital where she was being looked after.
   
   Arriving at her bedside and being with her throughout the next 72 hours was such a memorable and incredible journey. It culminated, on the Friday, at 6.42pm with the birth of my beautiful Granddaughter, which I was privileged to be present for.
   
   How many men can say they have been present for the birth of their daughter and then for the birth of their daughter's daughter?!
   
   Those 3 days were the most incredible journey of my life.
   
   Little Holly is now 20 months old and is as perfect as can be. And since the night my daughter rang me to say "Daddy . . . . the baby is coming" until right now has been the most remarkable journey of my life.

   Wow - I've had loads of them.  I don't think I could name just one. 
   Since the 4th of July just passed, I'm thinking of my most significant one.  I was touring Europe in 1982, when the Iron Curtain was still in effect.  We entered Communist territory on June 29th, exited it July 1st, celebrated Independence Day in Vienna, then re-entered Communist territory the next day.  Seeing the contrast between the two worlds has great significance to me, to this day.
   Please read about it in my hub:

      Our world is still bifurcated on such trivial and fabricated boundaries. Should not we dismiss all such arbitrary divisiveness and remain united? sometimes I wonder about this
