Another pretty site, especially, at night. The Stone Arch Bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota
The only arched bridge made of stone on the Mississippi River.
Happy Travels!

Wandering around Osceola, Wisconsin, I came across this little gas station/tire repair shop that had groups of tires waiting for recycling…
Awesome that they are not just going into a landfill…

Photos are available on Shutterstock and Alamy for any stock photos you may need…
I really, really like long exposure…and a Ferris Wheel at night is a great example
This was at the Minnesota State Fair…

A new adventure in September…and the first time I have had to actually get a tourist visa for a place I am visiting … Belarus.
Since I don’t have photos yet, I thought I would outline the steps for getting a visa to Belarus. It’s not complicated but it is time consuming…
The outline below is mostly for people living in the USA but the same steps apply internationally with only a few modifications..
Out and about exploring Moscow this weekend… Finally getting some really nice weather..clear blue skies and it’s getting warmer..
Always finding new, and quite often, fun things to shoot..
Happy Travels!
15 countries….21 Cities.. Since my New Year’s resolution in January of 2014 was to visit a new country every month, I can happily say “Mission Accomplished”.. But where do those trips rate? This is difficult because every trip was awesome.. it just so happens that some places ranked higher on the awesomeness scale..
We started off the year going to Greece.. followed by Cyprus, Spain, the Czech Republic, Austria, Turkey, Sweden, Romania, Poland, Latvia / Estonia, Netherlands, Belgium and Italy… Unfortunately Croatia (at the end of the week) will miss this years cut..
This is where it gets difficult..
#1 – Stockholm, Sweden <— Past Posts from Stockholm
There are a couple reasons I chose Stockholm..
The photographic opportunities were amazing.. The city, itself, while being a walking friendly place, has an impressive public transportation system.
Stockholm is the definition of New Age technology meets Old World charm..
#2 Barcelona, Spain <– Past Posts from Barcelona
For me, the difference between Barcelona and Stockholm, as a tourist, is negligible. Good food..good people and a wonderful year-round climate, makes it a great city to visit.
#3 Riga, Latvia and Tallinn, Estonia < —- Past Posts from Riga and Tallinn
What a wonderful trip this was…Able to see two world class UNESCO site filled cities in one 5 day trip.. Needless to say, modern amenities and old world architecture make this an easy choice..
Riga
Tallinn
So there are the top 3 from last year…although technically it is 4…
Now the Not Best trip…
Larnaca, Cyprus
To be honest.. it was a good trip. Not one of the best, but a lot of that was my fault for planning a trip in the really really OFF season
Beautiful scenery..interesting city..but almost no people..and no people meant almost everything was closed for the season.. It was difficult to even find a place to eat.. I will return to Cyprus on another trip..during a different time.. who knows, maybe it will move up the list..
Happy Travels!!
As the New Year approaches, we all have a tendency to look back at the past year and reflect … and when the new year rings in, I will have completed one of my goals for the year..
12 months … 15 countries …21 cities..
That doesn’t include the trips to explore Ukraine, where I currently live…
Over the next few days, I will the best and the not-best of this year long adventure… I can’t say “worst” because as a bastardization of a common saying goes –
The worst day traveling beats the best day working…
Tomorrow – Best and Not Best City ….
Happy Travels!!
The flight of tomorrow
Backpacker, solo traveller....you are in a right place!!
