Yumbulagang, Yumbulakar or Yumbu Lakhang or Yungbulakang (Palace) is an ancient palace in the Yarlung Valley, Nêdong County in the vicinity of Tsetang (Zêtang) in Southern Tibet.
According to legend it was the first building in Tibet and the palace of the first Tibetan king, Nyatri Tsenpo.
Yumbulagang may not today be the same building as legends says it is, but it is nevertheless a wonderful place and the views from the Palace is absolutely amazing.
The Palace is on a hill on the eastern bank of the Yarlung River in the Yarlung Valley - the cradle of Tibetan civilisation.
My visit to Tibet were in January 2011, a very cold time but on the upside hardly no tourists visit Tibet in winter time. And as it is too cold to work for both farmers and nomads, they traditionally have a month of and go on pilgrimage. Thereby, all sights where filled with Tibetans, mostly from the countryside.
Dressed up for the occasion, and very curious to meet Westerners, they made it worth sleeping without heat or electricity in below zero temperatures.

So I left Bristol and home in 1990 and bought a house in Canton, Cardiff for £37k. I'm not bragging as I sold it in 1994 for peanuts and stepped off the ladder for 5 years.
Anyway, nevermind how cheap my first house was, look at the haircut, the orb long sleeve t shirt and the spiral tribe poster not forgetting the 'haversack' by the bread bin.

My first ever house, Ethel Street, Canton, Cardiff. Taken in 1990. I wish I never sold it 6 years later and left the property ladder. I paid £37,050 for it and the mortgage would only have 9 years left on it now and would be less than £100 a month compared to our house now which has 22 years left and alot , lot more than £100 a month.......The car was a MK 5 Cortina and I loved it, near enough the same colour as the van I drove for work, it was stolen a few months later and never found........sob........
...house in Scotland, first image through my new Fuji X-E1, and first through Lightroom CC - did try to remove the lamppost light on the right hand side. But the tool has been updated, and i need to do a bit of reading through the changes - oh and to add to the learning curve am doing it on a MacBook Pro. So lets say its all new, and lucky to have got this far.
Anyway welcome to Scotland!
PS Am impressed already with this camera!

The Jacobs House in Madison, Wisconsin, also known as the Herbert and Katherine Jacobs First House, is a celebrated example of Frank Lloyd Wright's innovative Usonian architecture. Constructed in 1937, it is recognized for its historical significance and was one of the eight buildings by Wright to be inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in July 2019.
This architectural marvel reflects Wright's vision for affordable, beautiful homes that harmonize with the American landscape, embodying a distinct blend of modernity and natural elegance. Tours of this landmark offer a glimpse into Wright's genius, showcasing his ability to create functional yet artistic spaces within a modest budget.

This is the house where family life as I knew it began, in the Evergreen Valley subdivision of Flint, Michigan.
It was in this driveway where I triumphantly took that first ride on a bicycle after Dad removed the training wheels. (I didn't want to come inside and eat dinner afterwards.)
My neighbors, Stacie and Chris Kemp and my older brother and me used to play in our adjoining driveways.
Grandpa had given us an old tractor tire from the farm to use as a sandbox in the backyard - that tractor tire is still the coolest sandbox I have ever seen or played in. Nothing made by Lil' Tikes even comes close.
We had a playroom in the basement with blue / green-flecked shag carpeting where I remember my older brother had his HO-scale train set up.

We got married our junior year in college and this was our first home. The house has got to be over 100 years old. This look pretty much like it did when we lived there in 1971. The main house was cut into four apartments. Ours was on the upper floor on the left side (this shot is looking right at what was our bedroom. We also had a kitchen. One of Anne's mom's first questions was "where are you going to entertain." Our response, the bedroom or the kitchen.

I think this had to be 1988 for little Maire to have enough hair for her big sister to give her a french braid. They played "beauty parlor" for many years to come and Maire now is the one who plays professional hairdresser for her family & friends :>)!

I was 7 months pregnant Christmas 1983 for Day 5 of Advent, first year in our first house in Mission Texas.
I went to see it aiming to buy it. There was nothing about it that I didn't like. It was the perfect size just really tall. But that's what made the inside tolerable. And the red door, who could resist?
Dallas was first settled in 1841, by John Neely Bryan as a trading post near the banksof the Trinity River. The cabin in this photo and the few next ones is a restored replica of the first house in Dallas. The original house was almost destroyed by a flood in the late 1800s. The cabin stands at Dallas County Historical Plaza also known as Founders Plaza less than a quarter mile from Bryan's original site.
The nation's first low-income housing project, on Third Street in the East Village; they took existing tenements and demolished every third one.
The handmade quilt on the wall of our TX home was also a present, a wedding present from my husband's Mom :>) (I consider my kids "presents" as well!!!) Scans from 1988 Advent
Repurposed salvaged fence boards make a deliciously visually engrossing interior so it doesn't feel like a box.
Clothes for Kirsten & handmade ones from Grandma J. for Julie - This was our last Christmas in TX where we celebrated the day and opened presents with our great grandmotherly neighbor in the rehab nursing home where she found herself after falling and breaking her hip. She came home after a month or so and we helped nurse her back to as good a shape as we could for her 87 years.
For day 14 we are in 1987 and I had just started selling Discovery Toys but hadn't given too many to my kids yet as gifts - decorations and presents were mostly handmade still (except for this American Girl Kirsten doll :>) and we are in Mission, TX
