I've been wanting to photograph this bridge for a while, but i couldn't find the angle to go from. Had to climb down a steep hilll, but I think it was worth it.
This building is facing the Malecon on the corner of Padre Varela probably has some historical significance. I just could not find anything about the building except what I already knew. It is on Malecon and it is old. There are so many buildings of this vintage and while it would be significant elsewhere, in Havana it is just one of many.

The Brookeville Academy is located in the heart of the Historic District in Brookeville, Maryland, a town located in northeastern Montgomery County, Maryland. It was built in 1810 as one of the first private schools in Montgomery County, Maryland. It offered a full classical curriculum initially for some sixty male students (later females were allowed). Many of the students came from across the state and boarded with local families. (Wiki)
L’aqueduc de Roquefavour est un pont-aqueduc en arc en pierre d'une longueur de 393 mètres, et d'une hauteur de 82,65 mètres. Situé sur la commune de Ventabren dans les Bouches-du-Rhône, il sert à l'acheminement de l'eau de la Durance à Marseille et fait partie d'un canal appelé canal de Marseille. Il franchit la vallée de l'Arc, enjambant à la fois la rivière, la route d'Aix-en-Provence à Berre et la voie ferrée Aix-Rognac.
Sa construction, commencée en 1841 et achevée en 1847, a été dirigée par l’ingénieur des ponts et chaussées Jean François Mayor de Montricher et par William Fraisse. D'une architecture largement inspirée par l'antique Pont du Gard, il est près de deux fois plus haut que ce dernier. Il s'agit du plus haut aqueduc en pierre du monde.
Il est toujours utilisé de nos jours. La ligne du TGV Méditerranée passe à moins d'un kilomètre à l'est, et franchit elle aussi la vallée par un viaduc important. Wikipédia

A couple of weeks ago I went to Belgium for a long weekend getaway. It seemed overdue as I had driven through Belgium before but had never stopped. I had my base set up in Ghent for a couple of nights and took trips from there to Bruges, Antwerp and Brussels. This is the first image I took and sadly it was pretty much the last one too because the weather decided to put an end to everything photo. Nevertheless Belgium has some lovely old towns to offer which however pale when compared to the major attraction in Brussels. Yes, you guessed that right, the Jean-Claude Van Damme statue. ;-) Who else grew up on JCVD movies?
