After a break with various other photos, i think it's time to get back to the American muscle series. The next featured car is a very ... famous one: General Lee from "The Dukes of Hazzard"! The original General Lee, or just General, was a 1969 Dodge Charger running on various versions of the classic V8 (from 5,2L to 7,2L) and delivering up to 370HP to the wheels. It was named after the American Civil war general Robert E. Lee and on its rooftop it bears a Confederate flag, a variant of the square battle flag of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. Rumors has that General's doors were welded shut and that's why the brothers had to jump through the window to get in and out of the car. In this photo we have a General Lee replica that I found in a local car show a few months back. Interesting detail: at the background you can see a Dodge Challenger Hellcat (powered by a supercharged 6,2L V8 producing a whopping 707HP!), which in my eyes is the modern version of the classic Dodge Charger (although there is a modern Dodge Charger)
Dukes of Hazzard theme song:

Μετα απο ενα διαλειμμα με διαφορες φωτος, νομιζω ηρθε η ωρα να συνεχισω τη σειρα των American muscles. Το επομενο αμαξι ειναι ενα αρκετα ... διασημο: ο General Lee απο την τηλεοπτικη σειρα "The Dukes of Hazzard"! Ο αυθεντικος General Lee, η απλά General, ηταν ενα Dodge Charger του 1969 το οποιο φορουσε διαφορες εκδοσεις του κλασσικου V8 με τον κυβισμο να κυμαινεται μεταξυ 5,2 και 7,2 λίτρων και την αποδοση να φτάνει τους 370 ιππους. Πήρε το ονομα του απο τον στρατηγο Robert E. Lee του Αμερικανικου Εμφυλιου πολεμου και στην οροφη του φέρει μια Confederate σημαια απο το στρατο του Lee της Βόρειας Virginia. Φημες λενε οτι οι πορτες του General ηταν ηλεκτροκολλημενες και δεν ανοιγαν γιαυτο και οι αδερφοι Dukes πηδουσαν απο τα παραθυρα καθε φορα που ηθελαν να μπουν η να βγουν απο το αμαξι. Σε αυτη τη φωτο βλεπετε μια replica του General Lee που βρηκα σε ενα τοπικο auto show μερικους μηνες πριν. Ενδιαφερουσα λεπτομερεια: στο background φαινεται ενα Dodge Challenger Hellcat (εξοπλισμενο με εναν supercharged V8 6,2 λιτρων αποδοσης 707 ιππων) το οποιο κατα τη γνωμη μου ειναι ο λογικος απογονος του κλασσικου Dodge Charger (παροτι υπάρχει μοντερνα εκδοση του Charger).
The San Juan Bautista Indian Church in San Juan Chamula does not look great from the outside, but it's amazing inside (unfortunately photos are not allowed inside).
There is no bench. Instead, pine leaves dot the entire floor of the church. Thousands of candles are lit, and complete Indian families pray fervently on the floor.
The walls are dotted with statues of saints.
There is no priest, the bishop has the right to enter the church only once a year, for baptisms.
I felt inside this church an incredible mysticism and fervor!

Une église indienne incroyable
L'église indienne San Juan Bautista à San Juan Chamula ne paie pas de mine de l'extérieur, mais elle est incroyable à l'intérieur (malheureusement les photos y sont interdites).
Il n'y a aucun banc. A la place, des feuilles de pins parsèment tout le sol de l'église. Des milliers de bougies sont allumées, et des familles indiennes complètes prient avec ferveur assises sur le sol.
Les murs sont parsemés de statues de saints.
Il n'y a pas de prêtre, l’évêque n’a le droit d’entrer dans l’église qu’une seule fois par an, pour les baptêmes.
J'ai ressenti à l'intérieur de cette église un mysticisme et une ferveur incroyable !

Hverfjall crater near Myvatn lake in the north of Iceland.
This volcano is formed in the second volcanic cycle in this region. It began 2500 years ago with a gigantic but brief eruption, which formed the explosion crater (tephra ring).
This photo taken late in the evening, it was grey day, no sun, but on the sea was beautiful sky and we have some ice here (but no snow yet 😊). -4C but it was cold there because of the wind.

Perugia, capital of the region of Umbria, is worth visiting. It covers a high hilltop and part of the valleys around the area. The history of Perugia goes back to the Etruscan period; Perugia was one of the main Etruscan cities. The city is also known as the universities town, with the University of Perugia founded in 1308. Perugia is also a well-known cultural and artistic centre of Italy. The city hosts multiple annual festivals and events.
Perugia historic centre is as compelling as any in Italy, filled with fine Etruscan, Roman and medieval monuments – just be prepared for lots of walking when visiting Perugia. Panoramic rooftop view from Porta Sole in Perugia. The highest District of all, flooded with light and sun. Please have an amazing 3D view from: earth.google.com.
Perugia is de hoofdstad van de regio Umbrië en ligt prachtig gelegen op een heuvel op 500 meter hoogte. De stad is rijk aan monumenten en kunstwerken die getuigen van een opeenvolging van culturen door de eeuwen heen, van de Etrusken tot de Romeinen, van de Middeleeuwen tot de Renaissance, tot het heden. Dit maakt Perugia tot een van de mooiste kunststeden van Toscane en Umbrië. Daarnaast is Perugia een echte universiteitsstad. De Universiteit van Perugia is een van de oudste van Europa. Perugia heeft een kosmopolitisch karakter, waar het heel goed toeven is. Perugia kent ook een prachtig centrum waar het heerlijk flaneren is over de Corso Vanucci, de centrale straat, alwaar u op een van de vele terrasjes kunt genieten van een espresso of een aperitief of van een heerlijke Umbrische maaltijd. De stad kent een terrasvormige opbouw met als middelpunt Piazza della Signoria met het Palazzo dei Consoli, een van de mooiste raadhuizen in Umbrië. Dit grote plein kijkt uit over de lagere gelegen delen van de stad en het glooiende landschap om Gubbio heen. Verdere bezienswaardigheden zijn de Palazzo Ducale, de Dom en vele andere kerken.

I have been to the end of the Earth.
I have been to the end of the waters.
I have been to the end of the sky.
I have been to the end of the mountains.
I have found none that are not my friends.
—Navajo proverb
The first touch of winter
A mountain landscape as beautiful as it was created by God. This purity, this beauty, covered with the white robe of winter. Everything shines in this white, a white that makes nature so breathtakingly beautiful. We could only stand there and marvel at how perfect nature is.
If you remember that it was September, it's amazing. It was the first snow in Canada this fall. The road to this natural paradise had been closed shortly before, because there was more than 30cm of fresh snow. When we drove early in the morning to the two lakes (Maligne and Medicine lake) in the Jasper Nationalpark, it was bitterly cold and icy, as in winter. The sky was overcast and it seemed the sun would not have a chance to shine that day. On the return trip a few hours later, we were able to see the most beautiful winter landscape in the month of September, which we had ever seen before. A dream and a wonder of creation. (It almost seemed like someone had opened the sky for us.)
Addition: On the way to Maligne Lake we saw a whole moose family near the road in a wooded area. An unforgettable experience for us all.
I could not and did not want to omit this picture and added it to the Canada album as well. I hope you like it too and you can enjoy it with me a little. 🍁 🍂
This photo means a lot to me personally, because sharing the unique beauty of nature with your loved one's is the greatest gift that can happen to you.
To the picture: Medicine Lake – Jasper Nationalpark – Canada
Listen to this music and try to be quiet & dream.

Perugia historic centre is as compelling as any in Italy, filled with fine Etruscan, Roman and medieval monuments – just be prepared for lots of walking when visiting Perugia. Piazza IV Novembre is located in the heart of Perugia, surrounded by some of the most impressive monuments in the city. The Griffin and the Lion are the two symbols of the city of Perugia above the entrance of Hall of Notaries. You will find Piazza IV Novembre in the center of Perugia, a few steps from some of the famous buildings in the city. This square is the ideal place to relax. In the neighborhood you can visit impressive art galleries, admire old buildings or see enormous cathedrals. On the square are numerous cafes and restaurants where you can recover from all the sightseeing.

Dit grote plein kijkt uit over de lagere gelegen delen van de stad en het glooiende landschap om Gubbio heen. Rocca Paolina een unieke bezienswaardigheid. Paus Paulus III gaf in 1540 een architect de opdracht om vestingmuren om de stad te bouwen. De architect koos er gelukkig voor om de poorten in de muur op te nemen. Op verschillende niveaus onder de grond dus, loop je door elkaar kruisende straatjes met tongewelven. Door bogen met elkaar verbonden middeleeuwse huizen, torens, waterputten. Over de Via Baglioni, de belangrijkste ondergrondse straat, kom je via een systeem van roltrappen boven bij Piazza Italia. Het Piazza IV Novembre ligt in het hart van Perugia en wordt omringd door enkele van de meest indrukwekkende monumenten uit de stad. Je vindt het Piazza IV Novembre in het centrum van Perugia, op een steenworp afstand van enkele van de bekende gebouwen in de stad. Dit plein is de ideale plek om even te ontspannen. In de buurt kun je indrukwekkende kunstgaleries bezoeken, oude gebouwen bewonderen of enorme kathedralen aanschouwen. Aan het plein liggen talloze cafés en restaurants waar je even kunt bijkomen van alle sightseeing.

Flickr has endless problems for a long time. And these problems are growing every day.
1. When I want to open a group list I see this:
"Error loading groups
There was an issue loading the groups.
Click Reload to try again."
2. When I want to add photo in the group I see this:
"There was a problem adding this photo to the group."
3. I can't open notifications, it’s not working.
4. Flickr threw me out from my account on the mobile phone... And then writes that my password is incorrect, but it's correct...
5. Very slow loading of pages and opening of photos.
6. Pandas now live on everyone's page.
7. 2 days ago it was "Error - We couldn't post your comment".
8. Today I want to delete some images (gif-comments) and it’s a new issue:
”Error. We couldn't delete your comment.” (it's not my comment BTW)
9. When I click photos I see this: "We're having some trouble displaying this photo at the moment. Please try again."
10. "There was a problem retrieving your note to edit."
11. Flickr changed my album covers without any permission...
etc. etc. etc.

Previous night :
When I was talking to my sweetheart about finding the moss trolls in Hvalfjörður as a part of our next day programs, from the apartment living room that we rented, I watched the midnight sky, trying to read what weather might be when the sun showed its face in the morning. Above there was no star but some clouds were slowly rolling by.
I checked again the forecast, it showed that the weather should be fine until midday.
In the morning when we were ready to go, Little Dino rechecked the weather. She told me that THE FOG were over the pinned destination and it would be following by…..rain.
Little Dino seemed really disappointed but the next plans we had wouldn’t make her disappointment stayed longer.
Finally we drove around Reykjanes Peninsula.
The picture:
We were at Gunnuhver, a highly active geothermal area of mud pools and steam. The beach has the rock trolls and the wave is very powerful and dangerous. Oh yes, as always: windy too!
Down there, Little dino was walking to reach the rocky beach while I was busy synchronizing my whole organs body to collect the air, or…...to breathe. :)
