Cap Verden and Canaries

A visit to a Monestary in Myanmar

A day spent walking through the fascinating city of Cochin, India

Outside of Kandi, Sri Lanka, there is an orphange where elephants are cared for.
Many have been maimed by landmines.  Others are orphans, loosing their parents to poachers when they were very young, leaving them with no chance of survival without the dedication of the men and women who run the elephant home.

St. Petersburg / The White Nights (Beliye Nochi)

Below you'll find photos taken while cruising along the canals of St. Petersburg on a lovely, mid-summer's night. If you go to St. Petersburg during the famous "white nights," (about June 10 to the beginning of  July) you will experience the magic of the city in a very special light. Of course, the residents of St. Petersburg come out in the evening to enjoy their city and its canals.
St. Petersburg was constructed on over 42 islands. It is interlaced with a complex web of rivers, canals and channels that connect the city. They also mark the borders of its different districts.  Sweeping vistas of the city and many famous landmarks can be seen from the water. A highlight of any visit to St. Petersburg is a cruise along the canals and on the Neva River.
