I went hunting for pictures from our 2009 trip to Brazil… Hours later I found a bunch. We visited Foz do Iguaçu, Rio, and Paraty. Here are some pictures from that trip.

Carnival Towel Animals
Couple of examples of Carnivals “famous” towel animals. Come for the cruise, stay for the towel animals. If you’ve ever done origami, the towel animals are basically the same idea with towels. You take a few basic patterns with different sized towels and you can create a variety of animals. These were from the Carnival Splendor, Mexican Riviera cruise in April 2011.
Photos around Paris
In 2011, I was fortunate enough to spend a fair bit of time in Paris, France. The food was of course outstanding. These are photos of a couple of well known places, Eiffel Tower, Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, and the Zero Point outside the Catherdral of Notre Dame.
Dachau Concentration Camp
Perhaps one of the saddest places I’ve ever visited. I am grateful that I visited with a good friend and colleague or the sadness would have been overwhelming. I visited Dachau roughly 8 years ago today (15 April 2004).
Monterey Bay Aquarium
A photo at the Monterey Bay Aquarium from December 2000.

From November 2004, a view of Uluru (Ayer’s Rock) from the dessert.
Kilauea Volcano
More vacation memories, this time lava up close on Hawaii’s big island at Kilauea Volcano (2003).
Torres del Paine
Found this memory of our 2007 trip to South America and Cape Horn this morning, this photograph was taken in Torres del Paine National Park. It was quite beautiful there and I remember meeting several people who had returned because their previous visits had poor weather that prevented them from seeing the Paine’s.
