While we went to the Addo Elephant National Park to see the elephants, there were plenty of other wildlife to see. Here we passed a small herd of zebra that were off to the races. Maybe our vehicle spooked them?  We did see other zebra at Addo, a lioness overlooking the valley, and even disturbed [...]

On my trip to London in January, I was treated to a quick taxi tour of the Olympic construction site before heading out to the Active Travel Show. The east side of London is currently under construction in anticipation of the big event this summer. With access to cars open, we drove in, got out [...]

I went traveling to France, and Paris specifically, for a friend’s wedding. I didn’t realize that the reception was going to be on a boat on the Seine. After boarding our boat in the late afternoon, we started our cruise…with champagne in hand. I really loved seeing Paris from this perspective. Boats, bridges, monuments like [...]

While with my parents traveling in Namibia and South Africa, we stopped off at a farm near Gobabis, Namibia, owned by family of some of my friends. About a year earlier, they adopted a baby warthog. These things are so ugly, they are cute! Canon was his name and he was so tame. He craved [...]

Of all the shots, I’ve been posting for the last year, I think this one is one of my all-time favorites. Taken in Mykonos while traveling in Greece, it captures the island beautifully. Whitewashed exteriors are accented with just a touch of color, often blue, but not exclusively. Nearby is Mykonos’ bustling center filled with [...]

I took my niece with me to travel to Greece for three weeks. And, there was one thing on her mind – BEACH! So, I worked in tours to some of the historical sites, but the rest of the time was spent finding Greece’s top beaches. When we hit Santorini, we stayed over on the [...]

Located to the northwest of Athens, Delphi is one of the most famous historical sites that you’ll see while traveling in Greece. In a country filled with historical ruins, Delphi stands out. The grounds are set in the mountains so a pair of hiking boots wouldn’t be completely unwarranted. But, you don’t have to be [...]

The cliffs off the west coast of Ireland are legendary, especially the Cliffs of Moher. But, further down the coast you can get even closer to them. We arrived to the west coast late in the afternoon from Dublin and just stopped along the way…as you do on a road trip.  I’m not even sure, [...]

I found the castles while traveling in Ireland curious. Small, tall, not terribly imposing but interesting. Most that I saw seemed completely abandoned. Yet many, like this one on the west coast, maintained its regal dignity and made for great landscape shots. I honestly can’t remember the name of this castle. I took this photo [...]
