The Mosel River in Germany

The Mosel River

On September 27, 1997 after Reinhard Wirtgen's funeral in Windhagen, Germany I drove to the Mosel River. I was depressed and these photos were taken on that afternoon and gave me great consolation.

The Pyramids

After days and nights of travel, one finally gets to the Nile river and sees the Pyramids of Giza. Now, it seems like a camel saddle but normally one travels these days and nights in an airliner with cramped space and airline food - oh well, perhaps I did not take the camel across the desert to get here but it is well worth the effort.

Ponte Vecchio

The Ponte Vecchio dates back to 1354 and was the home of the butchers of Florence, they cut and chopped and the leftovers simply went into the River Arno. In the 1500's Cosimo the first kicked them off because of the smell and put the jewelers in.

They remain today. Even the Nazis tried to destroy this bridge but she stands today as one of the top jewelry markets in the world.

Caherdaniel

Caherdaniel in Ireland is a special corner of Kerry. Its on past Sneem which is past Blackwaterbridge. Do not expect much night life but there's a pint waiting for you at the local pub.

Ask for Kennedy or O'Toole then tell them you are a friend of them and want to add to their tabs...

Hand of God

Adare Ireland's Dunraven Arms is world famous. When you can make a photo of this great pub and hotel with a rainbow leading you on your way for a pint of Guiness... Well, it must be the hand of God!
