I made up my mind not to care so much about the destination, and simply enjoy the journey.

Inevitably, the journey ends.
We reach our final destination. Sometimes sooner than we expect.
Earlier today, I saw a 25 yr old man. He died of a kayaking accident.
Later in the day, a friend of mine died of cancer. She was about my age.
Lately, I keep getting this feeling that it is not too far away for me either.
A strange, but liberating feeling.
Stein am Rhein is a historic town and a municipality in the canton of Schaffhausen in Switzerland.
At the point where Lake Constance again becomes the Rhine River, there is to be found the little town of Stein am Rhein. It is famous for its well-preserved Old Town featuring painted facades and half-timbered houses, for which it received the very first Wakker Prize.
Stein am Rhein is a lively and very charming small town. Among the sights are the Monastery of St. Georgen, one of the best-preserved Medieval monastery complexes, the Lindwurm Museum depicting 19th century bourgeois and agricultural life as well as the holiday areas and excursion destinations that include the island group of Werd. The Hohenklingen Castle, which was built high above the town in 1225, brings to life the colorful history of Stein am Rhein.
It is here that the oldest house of worship in the Canton of Schaffhausen is found, a church dedicated to St. John the Baptist in the midst of wall remnants of the Roman fortress Tasgetium, which was built in the 3rd century A.D.

Aug 10- Favourite adult vacation (or vacation destination)
Of COURSE my favorite vacation every year, when we can do it, is New Orleans for Mardi Gras! SO many great memories down there! Even when it's NOT Mardi Gras, it's where I want to go! :)
The Second Severn Crossing (Welsh: Ail Groesfan Hafren) is the bridge over the River Severn between England (near Bristol) and Wales. The bridge literally snakes its way across the Severn Estuary creating graceful arcs.Much of the river in this area is mudflats at low tide, but at high tide (as in the image)can be covered by up to 14 metres of water!
I Shot this last night, an image Ihave wanted to get for a while now. No saturation or vibrance added.
