Anthony those are awesome pics, especially like the one with the chicken on the guys head.
Here is my only pic from Canada. I am guessing I was around 13. Of the 6 of us that went this was the first fish any of us caught.:) |
Good lord, I think we are still in Jamaica.
Canada, the Netherlands and Cuba wiil have to wait despite the nice photos. |

Are we stuck in Cuba?
El Duque got out. I have seen Cuba from the deck of a cruise ship. Does that count? If so, I would add Russia Attachment 271395 Attachment 271399 |
Hi Frank....after 6 days, it's time to give this thread a friendly bump.
And. I would like to thank you for posting the picture of the Church of the Resurrection in St. Petersburg (Russia). It is a well-renown and historic Cathedral. I meant to post these pictures in my post #33 here. Aerial view of the Acropolis in Athens...... http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...Lindos25xx.jpg A scene from the Island of Rhodes. One of my favorite movies, The Guns of Navarone (circa 1961), was filmed on Rhodes. Shown here is the location of the cliff-climbing scenes with Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn, David Niven, etc. in this movie. The film won the Academy Award for Special Effects. If you've seen this movie and have visited Rhodes, you'll appreciate why it won this Award. TED Z . |
wait, we're back in Greece again?
I'm so confused:confused: |
I thought I took a lot of pictures in India, but looking through it, it seems like I didn't take that many. Here are some of the highlights:
http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...psdfxgthi7.jpg This girl was one of the first beggars we saw; I took this one on the bus leaving the airport. She had just crawled out from underneath that sheet on the left when I took the picture. http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...pseuughjxx.jpg I wanted to take a ride in one of those rickshaws...then I actually did. Riding in one of those will keep my cardiologist in business for a long time. They don't have shock absorbers or anything to protect you in a crash, and they sit lower than just about everything on the road. Riding through Delhi rush hour traffic in one of those was an experience. http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...psyxputmmb.jpg The Taj Mahal, in Agra. We got there right as the sun was setting. As an engineer, it's incredible to think they built it without calculus. |

This time he at least implied that he had been to the cathedral of the spilled blood, so Greece was added. Many of you may not realize that Ted participated in the first marathon during the Peloponnesian Wars. I believe he came in second, which is understandable considering he carrying his camera. Furthermore if I don't add Greece now, it will continue to pop up. Note: Moderating this thread is not as easy as I make it look. A raise would be welcomed. Note also: We are still in Greece as Scott's photos supplement country #2 INDIA. OY VEY! |

Out of Greece and into Poland

I can get us out of the aforementioned Santorini, Greece (the photo is one I took on my wedding day of my wife) and move us into 24 different countries but let's go to Poland - specifically Gdansk.

This post reminds me of Johnny Cash Feel free to sing along https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov4epAJRPMw I was totin' my pack Along the dusty Winnemucca road When along came a semi With a high and canvas covered load "If you're going to Winnemucca, Mack With me you can ride."

Since I didn't include any Australia or Brazil pictures in my original post, here they are. Now, I think we're still on Indonesia.
The first two pictures are in Australia. The third is in Florianopolis, and the fourth is an abandoned palace (now home to squatters) in Rio. |
Also, we should talk strategy. It's probably a mistake to save the obscure places for last. The probability that there's someone here who has been to both Turkmenistan and Kiribati is pretty low. The odds that some has been to Turkmenistan and Germany, and someone else has been to Germany and Kiribati, is much higher.

Some vacation pics that are not from the US.:)
EDIT: Per Franks request These pics are from Europe. Most I am sure are the Netherlands. I know the last pic was my ride and cabin during a stay in the Amsterdam Bos(forest). We used to get blasted beyond belief and ride the ICE trains all over Europe and get on and off whenever we decided. EuroRail passes are the best.:) I have 100's if not a few 1000 pictures I know are from Europe but no idea what country. |

I've been to Israel twice, in 1970 and in 1975. I probably have pictures somewhere but I would have to take my closet apart to find them.
I've been to many others, but I'm not sure the rules allow me to post more than one. |
Pete- looks like everyone is skunked on Ecuador, post up another!

Portugal to Tonga
7 Attachment(s)
Portugal is great. I hope you had a chance to visit Sintra. Next up, Net54 is off to Tonga. I had to leave Australia for a while for visa reasons, and thought about going to Fiji. Everyone I knew said that it's overrun with tourists. So my wife and I went to the next island group to the east.
Portugal first: a view of Lisbon, and some castles. Then Tonga: a wonderful beach, the view from an 8-seat plane, a banyan tree, and a path down to the ocean. |

I've been to Honduras, but found nothing there worthy of a picture on land, and I am not a diver.
I will add a few pictures from a new country Attachment 273956 A Golfer's Urinal typical of this country's humor (?)

Frank, you're probably correct about Honduras, at least topside.
Visited Germany when I was a kid, so that leads us to Viet Nam. https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...28&oe=59B9D7D0https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...ff&oe=59B87883https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...d6&oe=5974A764https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...86&oe=59B2D582https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...06&oe=59BA524Ahttps://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...48&oe=59BD0063https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...30&oe=59B77F38https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...83&oe=599E86D7 |
