Catacombs of Paris

I am still getting my feet under me from our recent vacation. We spent five days in Paris, France and six days in Florence, Italy. A truly amazing time and I have MANY images to share on the blog in the fullness of time. I have much to catch up on and much to do in general right now, so a photo dump is a little low on my priority list. That said, I have for you some images from the Catacombs of Paris. We took a small group guided tour of the catacombs and it was amazing. We got to see some areas that were generally off limits to most visitors and our guide was very knowledgeable and she had a ton of amazing stories and information to share with us. It was a highlight of our trip. If you are visiting Paris be sure to book a tour in advance! Without further adieu, here is a glimpse of the Catacombs of Paris...

Happy Birthday to Dear Wife!

Today is Dear Wife's birthday and I could not think of a better way to use today's blog post than to share some images of her from our many adventures. She is my loudest cheerleader, relentless supporter, faithful art director, and the best adventurer. Always looking forward to our next adventure and to the ordinary things we find in our journey through life. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Images from Germany, Italy, Mexico, Bahamas, Caribbean, and United States.

That is all for another exciting Wednesday on the blog, see you back here on Friday! Until then...

Ardastra Gardens, Nassau Reference Dump

Finally have internet back at the house and things are beginning to work themselves out. Finally, kind of, catching up with things and getting the blog back in line. Today I have for you a bunch of images that I took recently while visiting Nassau in the Bahamas. Most of these images Ardastra Gardens which is a zoo and botanical gardens. It was really cool and allowed me to get really close to many of the animals. Saw a lot of birds, not that I am complaining, and some other great specimens. Here are a mess of images from our adventures at Ardastra Gardens...

There were free range flamingos at Ardastra Gardens and they were more or less uninterested in humans. I was able to get rather close and get some great images. There was even a flamingo show which allowed me to get even closer.

The ring tailed lemur live on average to the age of 16 - 18 years old.
The lemur at Ardastra Gardens is 26.
It shows all the signs of living well past it normal lifespan, but they assure us that it is as well as it can be and is seen to frequently by a veterinarian.


There were some outstanding tidal pools out the door of where we stayed.
I spent as much time as possible out looking in them and exploring.
