Nearest to the camera is our ship, the River Victoria. Compared to other river cruise ships – for example, those sailing the Rhine and the Danube – Russian ships are larger and higher. The reason is that there are no low bridges to go under in the Russian waterways and the canals are wider and so are the locks. Consequently, the Russian ships are more spacious inside and the visibility from the upper decks is better than on lower ships.
Our cabin (#423) was on the Volga Deck (the one above the name of the ship written in gold) about mid-ship facing the other side in this view. The River Victoria is 129 metres long and carries 206 passengers plus crew. It is a Russian ship – i.e. not owned by Uniworld, the cruise company – that was completely remodeled in 2011. During this remodeling, the public promenade areas that went all around the ship on the two upper decks were divided into private balconies, one for each stateroom. Even though all the cruise ships sailing these waterways are similar in appearance, the River Victoria was the only one to have the private balconies, which was a very nice feature. Also, the ship having been completely refurbished two years ago, we found it to be spotlessly clean.

Stanislaus River, (North Fork of the river in these photos) tumbles down from high Sierra mountains into a valley at 1230 ft, surrounded by high mountains and bordered with magnificent tall trees, colorful dogwoods and wild azaleas. It is an amazingly picturesque river, forming limpid mirror like pools and foaming rapids, then getting tame again before changing into raging waterfalls, flowing between massive rock formations and through deep woods. Setting sun colors the river in various shades of silver and gold. In some places it is quite dangerous. It is one of our favorite hikes.
The River Kelvin with Glasgow University Tower peering over Kelvingrove Park on a beautiful autumn morning. Only a few minutes from my work, so thought I had to pop down for a look.
Yesterday was a beautiful day in Northern California so we ventured out on the Sacramento River Walk Trail.
Chenab river is one of the five (Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Sutluj and Beas) rivers flowing through the province of Punjab, Pakistan. Punjab got its name from Punj (meaning five) and Aab (meaning water). So its a land of five waters. Taken near Chiniot city.

So i traveled to Tutzing last sunday, beautiful city! I had this concept for a while but the weather was very cold to do it. The water was still freezing but we had fun. Christina brought me some boots so i could stand in water without getting wet, very thoughtful! Also thanks to Isabelle for the photo assistance.
Feedback appreciated.

The John Day is the longest free-flowing river without dams in Oregon. It’s also one of the longest in the United States. Elevations range from 265 feet at the confluence with the Columbia River to over 9,000 feet at the headwaters in the Strawberry Mountain Range.
In 1988, Congress designated 148 miles of the main John Day as well as 101 miles of the north and south forks as National Wild and Scenic Rivers. The John Day offers diverse geology with columnar basalt monoliths, towering buttes and the eroded red & green soils of ancient fossil-rich ecosystems.
The John Day watershed supports one of the largest remaining populations of wild Chinook salmon and steelhead in the Columbia Basin, and is known for its excellent bass fishing. A wide variety of bird life may be found here, as well.
Recreation opportunities include hunting, fishing, sightseeing, horseback riding, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, camping, and whitewater rafting.
The John Day Wild and Scenic River is part of the Bureau of Land Management's National Conservation Lands. The National Conservation Lands include nearly 27 million acres of National Monuments, National Conservation Areas, Wild and Scenic Rivers, and National Scenic and Historic Trails. The National Conservation Lands work to conserve the essential fabric of the West, while offering exceptional opportunities for recreation, solitude, wildlife viewing, exploring history, and scientific research.

You break out of the woodland as you reach the summit of the first hill giving extensive views all around. To the north is this loch on the River Spey which I can't find the name of.
This is just of Interurban, next to the bus stop.
Foster Landing at Foster Homestead
Flat-bottomed boats carried passengers and goods on the Duwamish River to and from the Green and Black Rivers from 1854 to 1886. Names of the boats were the Minehaha, the Black Diamond, the Decatur, the Comet, and the Gem. A Landing for the flat-bottomed boats was located approximately 100 yards south of the Foster Homestead on the Duwamish river.

The Trinity River is the longest tributary of the Klamath River, approximately 165 miles (266 km) long, in northwestern California in the United States. It drains an area of the Coast Ranges, including the southern Klamath Mountains, northwest of the Sacramento Valley. Designated a National Wild and Scenic River, along most of its course the Trinity flows swiftly through tight canyons and mountain meadows.
It rises in northeastern Trinity County, in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest along the east side of the Scott Mountains, a subrange of the Klamath Mountains. It flows south-southwest along the west side of the Trinity Mountains into Trinity Lake (20 miles (32 km) long) formed on the river by the Trinity Dam, then immediately into the smaller Lewiston Lake, formed by the Lewiston Dam at Lewiston. From the reservoir it flows generally west-northwest past Weaverville and along the southern side of the Trinity Alps. It receives the New River from the north at Burnt Ranch and the South Fork Trinity River from the south along the Humboldt-Trinity county line. From the confluence with the South Fork it flows generally north-northwest through the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation and joins the Klamath from the south in northern Humboldt County at Weitchpec, approximately 20 miles (32 km) from the Pacific coast. Both Trinity Lake and Lake Lewiston are within Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area.
The river has been the scene of placer gold mining, including large-scale hydraulic mining, since the days of the California Gold Rush. The river's swift current make it a popular destination for whitewater rafting and kayaking. The creation of the Central Valley Project in the 1960s and the construction of Trinity Dam and Lewiston Dam diverted most of the Trinity's water to the Sacramento Valley, but a minimum annual flow has since been established.

The headwaters of the Kanuti River. This little stream drains an area the size of Delaware and eventually dumps into the Yukon River. This was one of the few places that wasn't snowy along the Dalton Hwy and still had some autumn color.
I love the Pearl River! Yes I know it's not a particularly "good" TLR. Maybe it's the name. But anyhow, I've been wanting one forever. I even bought one once, but it arrived broken and I reluctantly returned it. But now, finally, Pearl River is mine! I got this one in a swap with the frequent identity-changer J. Craigen -- thanks! :D
This Pearl River is "topless" because it led a sordid life as participant in a TtV contraption. It may reprise that role, but I plan to feed it some film soon too!
