My husband and I love to travel. We began traveling overseas at the prompting of our daughter. Our first trip was to England in 1996. Since then, we have visited England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales; France; Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary & Austria; Switzerland; Denmark, Sweden, & Norway; Spain; Bermuda; Belgium, Netherlands & Luxembourg; Spain, Portugal & Morocco. And I have visited Ghana.
I love to take photographs on these trips (who doesn't) but my preference in photos is to have most of the people out of the picture so I can get mainly the architecture. The trips that have been off-season have, consequently, been the most cooperative in that regard.
Herewith a smattering of the best photographs this amateur could produce. (And that Blogger would agree to load.)

Just beautiful. Interesting to me that the one that that 'landed' was of the two old ladies walking on the cobblestones. Maybe my aging joint were sympathizing with those old feet balancing on those unforgiving stones.
This is funny. I looked at the picture of the old women again. Those stones aren't so 'cobbly' after all. I think my memories of some rugged footing inserted itself here :0)
Beautiful photos! I especially like those of Spain - I never got to visit the southern part of the country and missed the Alhambra.
I liked the little old ladies too. Typical Spanish widows dressed all in black.
Bravo! Thanks for sharing these.
