2008 Travel Albums links to two major albums: On the Jacksonville Drive Back and Europe 2008. On the Jacksonville Drive Back displays pictures from a May 2008 trip to Jacksonville, Florida and the drive back up to New York State, stopping in Savannah, Georgia; Nashville, Tennessee; Stephen Foster Old Kentucky Home, Kentucky; Charlestown, West Virginia; Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Europe 2008 displays pictures from a September 2008 trip to Italy and Germany. Individual albums are of Rome, Siena, Pisa, Florence, Tuscany Area, Verona, Venice and Cortina Italy. Other albums are of Eitting, Oktoberfest, Castle Trip and Weinhenstephan Brewery in Germany.
2007 Travel Albums links to seven different albums: Quebec City, Montmorency Falls, Canyon Ste-Anne, Sainte Anne Church and Area Tour, Tadoussac, Saguenay, and Montreal. These pictures came from a September 2007 trip to Quebec City, Quebec, Canada, and a visit to the more northern Quebec village of Tadoussac for some Saint Lawrence Seaway whale watching. We visited Montmorency Falls, Sainte Anne Church, Canyon Ste-Anne and some other Quebec City area places of interest before heading up to see Tadoussac and the Saguenay Fiord. On our way back home we visited Montreal briefly.
Our 2005 Travel Albums link is made up of five different albums: Buenos Aires, Guacho Ranch, Iquazu Falls, Yacutinga, and Uruguay. These are pictures from our May 2005 trip. We spent 3 or 4 days in Buenos Aires with a side excursion to the Santa Susana Gaucho Ranch. We then flew to Iguazu Falls to spend a day and night there. A truck brought us to our next destination: Yacutinga Lodge. It was in the sub-tropical jungle, 40 miles from the falls and took us only two hours by bumpy truck on dirt road to get there. Karen was thrilled. She became ecstatic when she found electricity was only available several hours each day and that the spiders grew very large along with the snakes.
2006 Travel Albums links to ten different albums: London, Paris, Stonehenge And Avebury, Hereford And Area, Wales Elan Valley And Area, Criccieth And Portmeirion Wales, Snowdonia And Area Wales, Dublin Ireland, Ireland Cliffs of Moher Area, and Ireland Countryside. These pictures resulted from a spring 2006 trip going to London, visiting friends in Hereford, England and taking our rental car on the ferry from Holyhead, Wales across the Irish sea to Dublin, Ireland. We spent a day in Paris getting there via the Eurostar from London. Our driving excursions allowed visits to Stonehenge and the Avebury Circles, scenic views of the Elan Valley, an attempt to climb Mount Snowdon, a visit to the "Prisoner" village (Portmeirion), and walks in the Irish countryside and cliffs.
The 2004 Travel Albums link presents eight different albums: Vienna, Slovenia, Trieste (Italy), Croatia, Székesfehérvár, Lake Balaton (Hungary), Tiszadada, and Baradla Cave (Hungary). These are pictures from our July 2004 trip. We spent 3 or 4 days in Vienna then drove through Slovenia towards Rovign, Croatia. We had to pass through Trieste, Italy and never having been to Italy we had to get the passports stamped there. We enjoyed our short three or four hour stay and knew we needed to come back and do Italy right someday. From our Rovign, Croatia base we explored some Istria Peninsula mountain towns and Pula. From there we headed to Székesfehérvár to visit Monika, spent a day at beautiful Lake Balaton and then ventured on to Tiszadada. The Lados family shared a wonderful Baradla Cave excursion with us.
