Check-in counter at schiphol airport. They are all like this now cordonned off with a small slit to pass tickets and passports through. There is not so much travel now anyway but one can imagine, that we may be looking at the foreseeable future of air travel here.
Today one of our local LGBT groups hosted a screening of 'Priscilla, Queen of the Desert', along with a panel discussion of LGBT issues and a high-tea, as part of IDAHOBIT. Mrs Rachel and I volunteered to help out, and did the tickets on the door. This is the sight that greeted people as they arrived.
No ticket? No entry!
Bought front row tickets for My Chemical Romance live in KL concert today. They have 20% discount on all tickets at Sungei Wang.
Walking one day around Selby I spied an old Edmonson ticket lying trackside, stripped of its ink and battered by the weather.
The iconic Edmonson ticket, once issued to every railway passenger in Australia, has now been superseded at Puffing Billy by modern, printed tickets.
A family of reenactors buying steam train tickets at Bury station. I was drawn in by the vicar in uniform but his daughter joined him and made this wonderful group.

nagpahintay pa ako sa jeep kasi kinukunan ko pa siya before kami bumaba..
One year ago I was on holiday in Nippon. These are some photo's of exactly one year ago.
If you want to go visit the SkyTree, book your tickets way in advance. You can get your tickets one month in advance and you can choose your time window. When I arrived there was this line to get tickets which was crazy. I went to the information desk and asked if I needed to go stand in line as I got online tickets. Fortunately not. On the side they have these machines were you scan your QR and which spits out your real ticket and you can go straight to the elevator.
Unfortunately the sky wasn't all that clear. It was cloudy and smoggy and your couldn't see My Fuji. Bummer.

Recipe to go to heaven:
1. Drive with left hand.
2. Camera in the right hand.
3. Shoot

I don't know why she's ridin' so high,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
Before she gets to saying goodbye,
She ought to think twice,
She ought to do right by me.
I think I'm gonna be sad,
I think it's today yeah.
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away, yeah.
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
She's got a ticket to ride,
But she don't care.

The impressive Ticket Pavilion, which has been used in countless films and recently, in 2021, served as the location for the Oscars Presentation.
Transfer books sit in the cab of the Brill Bullet Car No. 205 at the Rockhill Trolley Museum. Now in her retirement home, the original Philadelphia & Western Railroad aluminum interurban car was built in 1931 by Brill.
The Bullets hummed their way up and down the Norristown Line at 70MPH for roughly 60 years with a single operator, who handled the car and the fares. The 205 soldiers on in revenue service for the museum, in the SEPTA scheme it was retired in. Museum volunteers modified it to run off a trolley pole instead of the third-rail it originally was powered by. A little rough around the edges, but looking great for its age, it's neat to see something I rode on as a kid and find a little touch like this in the cab.
Working as a ticket inspector has not been my most rewarding job but I do love the uniform. Talking of travel I am off on a hiking holiday tomorrow so see you all in July xx.
Space fans have been sending their names to Mars and other extraterrestrial destinations for more than two decades, and it’s that time again: From now until Sept. 30, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is taking names for the Mars 2020 rover mission.
All you have to do is type your name and location into an online form on NASA’s website and hit the “Send” button. You’ll instantly get the opportunity to print out or save a souvenir boarding pass, listing more than 300 million miles’ worth of faux frequent-flier award points.
Once all the names pass muster, they’ll be handed over to JPL’s Microdevices Laboratory to be etched onto a silicon chip with an electron beam. Each line of text will be a mere 75 nanometers wide — which is less than a thousandth the thickness of a human hair.
That’s small enough to get more than a million names inscribed onto a dime-sized microchip. But even at that rate, it’s likely to take more than one chip to do the job. After all, more than 2.4 million names were etched on two chips that were sent to Mars on NASA’s InSight lander last year.
If anything, the Mars 2020 rover will be an even bigger deal, thanks to its role in NASA’s accelerating campaign to look for evidence of ancient life on Mars.
“We want everyone to share in this journey of exploration,” Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington, said in a news release. “It’s an exciting time for NASA, as we embark on this voyage to answer profound questions about our neighboring planet, and even the origins of life itself.”
The 2,300-pound, car-sized rover is due for liftoff in mid-2020, with touchdown on the Red Planet scheduled for February 2021. The rover’s main mission at Jezero Crater will be to explore what’s thought to be the site of an ancient river delta on the edge of a giant impact basin. The crater’s rocks and soil may contain organic molecules and other traces of microbial life.
“The delta is a good place for evidence of life to be deposited and then preserved for the billions of years that have elapsed since this lake was present,” Mars 2020 project scientist Ken Farley said last November, when NASA revealed where the rover would be going.
The plutonium-powered rover will collect samples for saving up, with the intention of finding a way to return the samples during a future round trip to Mars. NASA also plans to pack a mini-helicopter on the rover, along with an experiment aimed at producing oxygen from Mars’ thin carbon-dioxide atmosphere.
Such a technology could come in handy when astronauts set up shop on the Red Planet, perhaps as early as the 2030s. And who knows? Decades or centuries from now, interplanetary explorers might well be able to recover the name-laden microchips from the Mars 2020 rover’s frame. Let’s just hope they bring their microscopes.

Street shot, Checking and clipping entrance tickets at the Citadel Hue Vietnam
The Imperial City (Vietnamese: Kinh thành Huế) in Huế is a walled fortress and palace in the former capital of Vietnam.
The grounds of the Imperial City were surrounded by a wall 2 kilometers by 2 kilometers, and the walls were surrounded by a moat. The water from the moat was taken from the Huong River (Perfume River) that flows through Huế. This structure is called the citadel. Inside the citadel was the Imperial City, with a perimeter of almost 2.5 kilometers. Inside the Imperial City was the imperial enclosure called the Purple Forbidden City in Vietnamese, a term similar to the Forbidden City in Beijing. The enclosure was reserved for the Nguyễn imperial family.
In June 1802 Nguyễn Phúc Ánh took control of Vietnam and proclaimed himself Emperor Gia Long. His rule was recognized by China in 1804. Gia Long confided with geomancers to decide which was the best place for a new palace and citadel to be built. After the geomancers had decided on a suitable site in Huế, building began in 1804. Thousands of workers were ordered to produce a wall and moat, 10 kilometers long. Initially the walls were earthen, but later these earthen walls were replaced by stone walls, 2 meters thick.[citation needed]
The citadel was oriented to face the Huong River to the east. This was different from the Forbidden City in Beijing, which faces south. The Emperor's palace is on the east side of the citadel, nearest the river. A second set of walls and a second moat was constructed around the Emperor's palace. Many more palaces and gates and courtyards and gardens were subsequently added. The rule of the last Vietnamese Emperor lasted until the mid-1900s. At the time, the Purple Forbidden City had many buildings and hundreds of rooms. It suffered from termite and cyclone damage, but was still very impressive. Many bullet holes left over from the war can be observed on the stone walls.
In the early morning hours of January 31, 1968, as part of the Tet Offensive a Division-sized force of North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong soldiers launched a coordinated attack on Huế seizing most of the city. During the initial phases of the Battle of Hue, due to Huế's religious and cultural status, Allied forces were ordered not to bomb or shell the city, for fear of destroying the historic structures; but as casualties mounted in the house-to-house fighting these restrictions were progressively lifted and the fighting caused substantial damage to the Imperial City. Out of 160 buildings only 10 major sites remain because of the battle, such as the Thái Hòa and Cần Thanh temples, Thế Miếu, and Hiển Lâm Các. The city was made a UNESCO site in 1993. The buildings that still remain are being restored and preserved. The latest and so far the largest restoration project is planned to conclude in 2015
