As noted in last week’s “T Party” item “all of my baseball caps also have something written on them. This isn’t just because of my fastidious sense of fashion but also because it “announces” me – assisted by my brightly colored shorts – as a definite foreigner, which I think is to my benefit.”
Here is a sampling of caps I’ve been seen with on the MedTrek.
A Cannes Film Festival “American Pavilion” cap in Cinqueterre, Italy.
A branded “The Idiot and the Odyssey II” cap in Turkey.
My cap from the Chalkidiki Peninsula in northern Greece.
A “14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards” cap in the Peleponnese.
A “SF” Giants cap on my son Luke in Morocco.
“Camp” on the Stromboli volcano.
“Follow The Idiot.”
“B” is for “Boston.”
Capping Mount Etna.
Idiotic caps.

About Joel
Joel Stratte-McClure has been a global trekker since the 1970s. He lived in France for over 30 years, working as a journalist, before he turned his attention to a unique life-time-project of walking the shores of the Mediterranean. The first 4,401 kilometers are explored in his inspirational and entertaining first book "The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean." The next 4,401 kilometers are covered in the gods-filled sequel, "The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean,” published on Valentine's Day 2013. The last 4,401 kilometers will be discussed in the last book of the trilogy currently entitled "The Idiot and the Odyssey III: Alexander the Great Walks the Mediterranean."
