Well, it has been available for a while now and it has 10 articles on it for your reading pleasure. It is called www.wanderingtourist.com. It is a travel web site that mostly features articles about lesser-known tourist venues in Florida and the Southeast, with a couple of exceptions.
One of those exceptions is the series of submissions a friend of mine, Wayne Bolla, is posting about his sailing adventure to the Mediterranean Sea, with a couple of stopovers along the way. I think you will like Wayne’s writing and the photographs he took.
