Puppy Love Part Two

A couple weeks ago I featured a round up of cute dog pictures from around the globe. It was such a hit, and I received so many more pictures that I decided to do a part two. Here’s my contribution: a cute and lonely puppy on a sunny day in Prague. From Adventure Rob: a [...]

Puppy Love Around the World

If you know me in real life, you probably know that I love dogs. I’ve always loved them and now that I’m headed out on the road and a puppy is something I absolutely can not have, it’s become a kind of obsession. Luckily for me, dogs are pretty universal throughout the world. I can’t [...]

The Art of English Gardening

Back  in February, when I was suffering through the torturous Snowpocalypse, it was really hard to believe that warm weather would ever return again. Springtime always makes me think of England. Although their winters are even longer and darker then around here, they sure know how to take advantage of the weather they do have, [...]

Dalmatia in Pictures

There is a reason that Croatia is such a European hot spot, and that reason is the stunning Dalmatia Coast. During my Australian Party Island Hopping Cruise I got to see quite a bit of the golden island which dot this corner of the Adriatic. Here are some of the highlights. The heart of the [...]

I love Spring. And I LOVE Springtime in DC. After the winter to end all winters, warmth and happiness have come back to DC with a vengeance. And although I never want to see that much snow again, it was all worth it because springtime in DC is just gorgeous! I had the day off [...]

Friday Postcard: Budapest, Hungary

Maybe it’s kind of macabre, but I love seeing relics. The body parts of various saints were scattered all over Budapest; from St. Stephen’s dessicated hand to various fingers to this fellow. The plaque was in Hungarian so I’m not sure who the original owner was but I really liked the presentation. (Do you have [...]

Serbia in Pictures

So wow, I guess my post on Belgrade last week was kind of dark. Everything I wrote was genuine, but there were also a lot of things I saw in Serbia that were downright charming.  Here are some of the neat things I saw there: The Cathedral of St. Sava. The Belgradians have been slowly [...]

Friday Postcard: Colosseum Cat

The Colosseum was full of feral cats. I’m a sucker for puppies and kitties so I of course took a bunch of pictures. I didn’t think much more of it until I got a request on flickr to add this photo to the group That Friendly Tabby Cat at the Colosseum. Apparently this gregorious little [...]

Friday Postcard: San Juan, Puerto Rico

The cemetery of Santa Maria Magdalena de Pazzis is one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world, but also rather problematic to reach. The only way in is through La Perla, a rough neighborhood of San Juan outside of the city walls.  La Perla’s problematic history and relative isolation have lead to high crime [...]
