27th generation of family ownership of the ryoken we stayed in.

- the onsen was a hot spring on the banks of a river at back; there were wild bears in the forest behind.

I've been to a few castles.

Having drinks at Edinburgh Castle at a military function is probably a highlight.

But, Neuschwanstein Castle is probably the craziest self aggrandizement project by a royal I've ever been to.

Wait, I take that back. I think the Taj is probably a 'castle' as well.

6 am outside the Novatel in Paris, best time of the day in cities the World over, minimal number of people.

Durnstien castle ruins, where Richard 1 was imprisoned, great view from the top, but a steep climb.

Amazing.

Different angle from a few years ago.

I do like France.

My best travel photo is of a Land Iguana in the Galapagos. Not sure if I'll top this. The quality might be reduced due to the upload restrictions.

I was very lucky to have lived in Peru for 3 years and went to the Galapagos 3 x.

and would you want to go to Belarus?

I don't think they'd let me in, or if I got in I wouldn't be let out.

Did a day trip to Bratislava from Vienna on a whim with a Europass. Wish I had more time there. Beautiful.

Just in case anyone thought I didn't take this photo, or whether I was even in the Galapagos, this is still on their website....

Grrrrrrrr.

"Grand Queen Beatriz" WTF?

I still like that they're using my photo for their martketing but, please, Intrepid, credit me for the photo.
