After an extended absence from Swan Lake, we conquered territory that had previously only been hinted at. Right in the beginning of November, square in the middle of Autumn. I had almost forgotten how many laughs from our magnificently long weekend were captured on camera during our return to the lake. I was pleasantly surprised to revisit a few of those moments, and made sure to get a handful up here.
Were the moments really that funny? Were we just cold? Were we worn out from our late night of dance followed by an early morning wake-up in Charlotte? Was there truly magic around the lake? Around the gardens? I'm pretty sure we were just that funny.
This is an electric boat ferrying passengers across to the paths and boardwalks that string together the upper and lower basins of the Plitvice Lakes, a national park of naturally flowing and falling water of incredible beauty.
In Europe we often encounter electric boats because in many places gas motored craft are banned, lending areas an overall quiet that would be nice to have in the States. But then of course people couldn't be allowed to race around on their whiny personal jet craft, which I'm certain would violate some Constitutional Amendment.

Traveling with my kids, farm animals are always a welcome encounter.

Cairo, Day Two: Pyramids, Giza and Saqqara, Progressive Dining, and a Sheesha at the Hilton. Huh?
The view from the back door of our cabin. If you look closely, you can see Allie sitting at the table, engaging in an early-morning writing session.
