The view or two from my "office"

[QF WP]

I do believe we won @bundybear



Time to go and celebrate at friends house - red wine, s’mores and hot chocs

 

[Flashback]

The view from my office on the way home... and a reminder from LHR T5 to not forget your umbrella even though its sunny. More love from BA today... first was the Tokaji dessert wine as I mentioned I had a bottle at home waiting to be tried, but have been away the last 6 weeks so they gave me this one to compare. The 2nd (no picture sorry!) was because I tried a sip when deciding what to have with dinner... and they didn't want to throw it away so gave me that too.

Right now, Campeche.

Communication are rather limited on Fraser Island! This is about as good as it gets.

Earlier today. Palenque Mayan archaeological site.

If you go there (highly recommended), make sure to get a good guide to explain the details. Seriously mind-blowing.

anyone recognise the aircraft?

was a joy flight, taking off at the old Tempelhof airport in Berlin

 

[drron]

It's this one.

Looks like it is still flying.this one from last year.

 

[daft009]

wow, i didn't google the rego number thinking it was a generic one, hence filled with a bunch of Xs.

it was in need of a makeover back then, can't believe its still flying.
I was my first trip to Berlin, was still a uni student back then

It must have had a complete rebuild as discussed in this article.

Chichen Itza still to come.

If you didn’t get enough info from your guide about why these (and many other) civilisations collapsed, read Jared Diamond’s ‘Collapse’: Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Survive eBook: Jared Diamond: Amazon.com.au: Penguin UK

This has been my office on Fraser Island for the last week. Back towards civilisation tomorrow.

 

[mrs.dr.ron]

Great sunset from the home office tonight !

Hard to tire of flying in or out of Auckland. Except perhaps at 1am.

 

[Buzzard]

A chilly winter morning, lazing in bed looking out at the lake in Merimbula.

 

[JohnM]

Merida, Mexico.

These Mexis have no idea of how to have a good time. Suburban square about eight blocks from Plaza Grande, 9.30 pm, a classy band playing, kids playing on the swings, people munching a taco or licking an icecream, couples dancing, dads grooving with their very young daughters...

Haven’t these people heard of sitting down at home and watching TV?
