The new (to the photographer, at least, in January of 2013...) route into Tijuana, Mexico from the SD Trolley San Ysidro, CA Border Station. (AKA: San Ysidro Transit Center Station) # 7 of 7 Taken by a Nikon D40x with a Sigma 17-70mm Æ’ 2.8-4 OS HSM macro lens (at 28)
Continue Through the plaza (¡Viva Tijuana!) to the ramps below the pedestrian bridge - from here the route is the same as the old route.
The "Taxi Libre" stand is to right of frame on the street side of that MickeyD's. (Always crowded, and not the best MickeyD's in TJ, either) Note that the MickeyD's mentioned closed sometime between August 2014 and November 2014... (My guess - they couldn't make a profit with the high rents on locations in Viva Tijuana!)
Note that most of the shops in this plaza are tourist rip-offs. For good bargains (or at least better bargains…) stay away from the tourist inhabited parts of town - although this may mean that your Spanish skills (pre-supposing that you have any...) may be tested. Just going into downtown can reduce the price of a single Cialis® tablet (as an example) by 2-3 dollars (per pill!) from the price in this plaza.

Crossing the border into Canada from the USA across Rainbow Bridge.
To get to Canada from the USA, cross Rainbow Bridge from Niagara Falls, New York USA into Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada. To leave the United States of America, walk through a self locking metal turnstile gate without needing to show any id at this point, half way across the Rainbow Bridge there is a bronze plaque on the bridge fence indicating the United States / Canada International Boundary Line, this area is also notated with the Canadian flag flying next to the USA flag. To enter Canada after crossing the International Boundary Line you must show your passport to customs agents before entering the country of Canada, there is no fee for this process but when you want to cross the same bridge back into the USA there is a .50 cent fee.
Walking across Rainbow Bridge takes under10 minutes, the time to show your passport to the agent at the Canadian border and the agents at the USA when returning to The United States of America cannot be determined as the time varies based on how many border agents or people trying to enter the country at any given time.
There are excellent views of Niagara Falls from both the USA and Canada, but they are both very different, the view of the falls from Canada shows a more natural less built up look, where as the view of Niagara Falls from the USA shows more of a city built up look.

Estimated Completion: September 2015
After leaving Jerusalem, you arrive to the Israeli border post some half hour away by bus or taxi. They process the passport and may check the luggage and then you have to take a short bus ride to reach the Jordanian post, where another passport and luggage control takes place. You then take a bus or taxi to reach Amman, about an hour away from there.
Saindo de Jerusalém, você alcança o posto de fronteira em uma meia hora de taxi ou ônibus. Aà tem que passar o controle de passaporte e bagagem, e em seguida, uma curta viagem de ônibus para chegar ao posto de fronteira da Jordânia, onde você passa por outro contrôle de passaporte e bagagem.

Mont Blanc 4810m and Val Thorens 2300, photo taken from Cimd de Caron 3200m
Val Thorens located in the Tarentaise Valley, Savoie, French Alps, is the highest ski resorts in Europe, at 2300 m altitude.
Given the high altitude of Val Thorens and the Glacier de Péclet the resort is often regarded as "snow sure". With the winter season lasting into early May and summer skiing on the glacier.
Many of its slopes face north and north-west, providing for good snow conditions. This means that the slopes are not as sunny, so the resort tends to attract a crowd more interested in skiing than "terracing." However, the resort itself faces south, and many people enjoy sitting outside in the sunshine when they have finished skiing. As well as a combination of 68 marked runs, Val Thorens also 5 terrain parks giving access to bordercross tracks, quarter pipes and jumps.
Val Thorens is the most international ski resort in France: more than 70% of its visitors are foreigners. While one will find people from all over the world in Val Thorens, British, Scandinavian, Belgian, Dutch and German tourists make up the majority.

Crossing the border into Canada from the USA across Rainbow Bridge.
To get to Canada from the USA, cross Rainbow Bridge from Niagara Falls, New York USA into Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada. To leave the United States of America, walk through a self locking metal turnstile gate without needing to show any id at this point, half way across the Rainbow Bridge there is a bronze plaque on the bridge fence indicating the United States / Canada International Boundary Line, this area is also notated with the Canadian flag flying next to the USA flag. To enter Canada after crossing the International Boundary Line you must show your passport to customs agents before entering the country of Canada, there is no fee for this process but when you want to cross the same bridge back into the USA there is a .50 cent fee.
Walking across Rainbow Bridge takes under10 minutes, the time to show your passport to the agent at the Canadian border and the agents at the USA when returning to The United States of America cannot be determined as the time varies based on how many border agents or people trying to enter the country at any given time.
There are excellent views of Niagara Falls from both the USA and Canada, but they are both very different, the view of the falls from Canada shows a more natural less built up look, where as the view of Niagara Falls from the USA shows more of a city built up look.

This was a fairly new established border post when this was shot. The diplomatic (and limited military) row between Indonesia and Malaysia over the Ambalat islands in 2005 prompted the Indonesian government to increase the establishment of border posts. This is the first permanent border post in the Apokayan plateau ever since the arrival of states in central Borneo in 1901.
The new (to the photographer, at least, in January of 2013...) route into Tijuana, Mexico from the SD Trolley San Ysidro, CA Border Station. (AKA: San Ysidro Transit Center Station) # 2 of 7 Taken by a Nikon D40x with a Sigma 17-70mm Æ’ 2.8-4 OS HSM macro lens (at 26)
At the end of the street you turn right (south) and follow the crowd through the revolving gate, then through Mexican customs.
The photographer has never (on more than 15 trips into Tijuana) been stopped by the Mexican Customs people - I think they're more concerned with Mexican nationals returning with contraband than what a gringo may be bringing in.
This changed on trips in August of 2014 - I was trailing a carry-on sized camera case, and was stopped by Mexican customs for a quick check (the camera case actually held camera gear, and a change of underwear)...
(One word of warning, though: DON'T bring firearms into Mexico! They take possession of firearms without permission [In the form of a permit from the Government] very [it's a felony with mandatory prison time!] seriously!) This may be why I was stopped, as mentioned above...
Incidentally, I caught a tank car (with LP gas) on the tracks above the route.

November 11, 2017 (Veterans Day)
SOA (School of the Americas) Watch -
Border Encuentro - November 10-12, 2017
Day 2 of the "Border Encuentro" began with a Veterans For Peace led march from about 1 mile north of the border in Nogales, AZ to the border wall. There, the march split with hundreds following the wall on the US side and hundreds more crossing the border en-mass into Mexico and assembling across the wall from the US marchers. The stage had been assembled on the Mexican side and as speeches were given and music performed a massive mural was wheat pasted onto the backdrop with the theme of the weekend... "Tear Down the Walls. Build Up the People." 30 minutes into the performances, 100's more arrived with the Caravana Internacional por la Unidad de los Pueblos, marching along The Wall and carrying banners. Originating in Oaxaca on October 31, the Caravana Internacional arrived at the Border Encuentro after 12 days traveling the length of Mexico.
The "Border Encuentro", organized by SOA (School of the Americas) Watch, originated in 1990 as a yearly protest outside the gates of Fort Benning in Georgia. 2017 is the 2nd year that the gathering has moved to the US/Mexico border region in Arizona. Thousands from across the country gathered to take a hard look at the massive human costs of border militarization and US immigration policies and to protest the long and continuing history of US intervention in the affairs of Latin America.

Crossing Mulwala Bridge which spans the Murray River and divides NSW and Victoria. We spent the night at Club Mulwala - our last sleep in a real bed and our last real shower before the riding began. The 2010 UIM World GP Hydroplane Championships were on 26-28 November so as we trekked across the bridge there was a boat caning it on our right. It was very loud and somewhat intimidating as I recalled news footage of such boats exploding typically involved pieces flying many meters and this boat was charging right for us before doing a sharp U turn.
"The dip in the southern end of the bridge, a feature much discussed by our visitors, was the result of poor communication between Victoria and NSW Governments. Construction of each end began independently and at different levels and the bridge had to be redesigned to smooth out the difference, resulting in the dip!" -- The Yarrawonga Mulwala Story

Another view of the bridge connecting Canada with the US. It was possible once to walk across a bridge (not this one though) to see the US side of the falls as well as the Bridal Veil falls next to that. Unfortunately, thanks to increased security procedures, that is no longer possible, or at best is extremely frustrating and time consuming, something most tour operators don't appreciate. To the top left you can see the border control station on the USA side. (Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. Nov. 2015)

To leave the United States of America, walk through a self locking metal turnstile gate without needing to show any id at this point, half way across the Rainbow Bridge there is a bronze plaque on the bridge fence indicating the United States / Canada International Boundary Line, this area is also notated with the Canadian flag flying next to the USA flag. To enter Canada after crossing the International Boundary Line you must show your passport to customs agents before entering the country of Canada, there is no fee for this process but when you want to cross the same bridge back into the USA there is a .50 cent fee.
Walking across Rainbow Bridge takes under10 minutes, the time to show your passport to the agent at the Canadian border and the agents at the USA when returning to The United States of America cannot be determined as the time varies based on how many border agents or people trying to enter the country at any given time.
There are excellent views of Niagara Falls from both the USA and Canada, but they are both very different, the view of the falls from Canada shows a more natural less built up look, where as the view of Niagara Falls from the USA shows more of a city built up look.

July 11th 2014
Border crossing between Latvia and Lithuania temporarily closed during COVID-19 travel restrictions.
Having more than had my share of dunking, spray and feeling pretty cold and shivering, I retreated to the inside cabin of the boat to take this picture. I was lucky to get a patch of glass without water droplets on it. A lady was selling coffee inside the ship, but I should have probably come in a few minutes earlier. With less than five odd minutes to disembarkation, that was not a option, though a cup of steaming hot strong mocha was what was desperately needed then, in that cold! (Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. Nov. 2015)
