The formal entry way...
August 1st - 3rd was Summer VACA (Virginia Association of Commonwealth's Attorneys) conference. When I wasn't in class, we were at the beach or the Historic Cavalier Hotel. Built in 1927 it is the epitome of a classic "grand hotel." During the 1930's, 1940's, and 1950's, The Cavalier was the largest hirer of big bands in the world. Tomy Dorsey, Frank Sinatra, Benny Goodman, Xavier Cugat, Cab Calloway, Glen Miller, Lawrence Welk, and Bing Crosby were among the many who played at the Cavalier Beach Club.
Seven U.S. presidents have stayed at The Cavalier: Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and Richard Nixon. Richard Nixon's favorite room at The Cavalier was the Hunt Room with its roaring fireplace. He didn't care if it was the middle of August he loved that fire roaring. Staff obliged and turned up the air conditioning. Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George Bush have each addressed audiences from podiums at The Cavalier.
Other famous guests include: F. Scott Fitzgerald, Judy Garland, Will Rogers, Bette Davis, Jean Harlow, Mary Pickford, Betty Grable, and the infamous Fatty Arbuckle. When Fatty visited, he would rent an entire floor for his entourage. Hank Ketchum drew several "Dennis the Menace" cartoons based upon his family's stay at The Cavalier.
Many of the pictures are of the historic hotel, some are of the "New Cavalier" (built in the early 1970's and typical of the bad cliche' hotels that dominate the Virginia Beach oceanfront) and some are of restaurants / bars we visited while on this mini-vacation.
The Hassan II Mosque or Grande Mosquée Hassan II is a mosque in Casablanca, Morocco. It is the largest mosque in
Morocco and Africa and the 7th largest in the world. Its minaret is the world's tallest at 210 metres (689 ft). Completed in 1993, it was designed by Michel Pinseau and built by Bouygues. The minaret is 60 stories high topped by a laser, the light from which is directed towards Mecca. The mosque stands on a promontory looking out to the Atlantic Ocean, the sea bed being visible through the glass floor of the building's hall. The walls are of hand-crafted marble and the roof is retractable. A maximum of 105,000 worshippers can gather together for prayer: 25,000 inside the mosque hall and another 80,000 on the mosque's outside grounds.

The Rotunda, dedicated in honour of Ernest and Elizabeth Samuel, is the Museum’s ceremonial entrance hall. It features one of the Museum’s most magnificent architectural treasures—a spectacular mosaic dome that has fascinated generations of staff and visitors.
Charles T. Currelly, the first director of the Royal Ontario Museum of Archaeology, conceived of this mosaic introduction for the 1933 addition. The mosaic ceiling was designed to reflect the breadth of the collections, being adorned with patterns and symbols representing cultures throughout the ages and around the world.
