Taken on our way to St. Pölten – a one-hour train ride from Vienna coming from the train station Westbahnhof. During such a trip I let the kids take their portable game consoles and they play. I, on the other…
Parisian Birds
On our way to the Louvre we passed by a number of churches, restaurants, statues and fountains. The fountains and other forms of water installation seem to be useful for the birds…they get to drink and bathe there. And what…
Flaming Flamingos
“See how the sacred old flamingoes come, Painting with shadow all the marble steps: Aged and wise, they seek their wonted perches Within the temple, devious walking, made To wander by their melancholy minds.” -William Butler Yeats quotes …
Venice – City of Windows too!
To be in the city were Venetian blinds are named after, it was surprising to find that not much of them are in use there. Or perhaps it was still early that I haven’t spotted much when hubby and I…
Big Stuff – Nuremberg
The biggest banana we’ve ever seen is at Nuremberg, Germany, a statue at least. We were walking down the street to the train station when we saw this giant banana. We just got to have a photo! Just like in…

Swimming-A Favorite Summer Activity
Every summer, willingly or not, swimming is a favorite activity that we do when we can. We try to go to beautiful beaches, and other places where the kids can enjoy a swim. I’ve unearthed photos from hubby’s Facebook account…
Comic Kiev
Just for fun…you’d meet Bart Simpson and Shrek and an unidentified Orange character (could be Garfield) on the streets of Kiev. Would you have photo souvenir too? 🙂 Mascots are an addition to the fun tourists can have while visiting…
Visiting Kiev
The hubby is away as of the moment. He went on a business trip to Kiev and would be back on Monday. He posted some photos on his facebook already and yellow churches seem to be the dominant theme. I’ve…
Matabungkay Beach, Batangas, Philippines
Finally made use of the underwater camera hubby specifically bought for summer. Our Donsol plan didn’t push through so we made use of it in Matabungkay. Here’s hubby’s underwater adventure…showing some fishes from below and how a starfish turns itself…
