Flag Display Honoring 9/11 Victims.
Honoring the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Pepperdine University has once again staged a dramatic display of American flags on its expansive lawn beneath the Theme Tower - one flag for each of the nearly 3,000 lives lost on that tragic day.
Some of the flags along the walkway above Playa de los Amadores. The cliff-top hotel in the background is the Riu Vistamar — home for the week.
I guess there might be a street in central London where there are no flags...... I haven't seen it yet! A walk along Piccadilly towards Leicester Square shows you the flags of all nations, giant triangular olympic banners, union jacks by the hundred, and a scattering of olympic rings. This display is on the lower part of Regent Street.
The flag whips out behind us as we race west across the Georgia Strait back to Nanaimo. It's hard to beat being on Georgia Strait (Salish Sea), BC waters in good weather!

There are officially two flags of Bavaria: the striped type, and the lozenge type, both of which are blue and white. Both flags are historically associated with the Wittelsbach family, which ruled Bavaria. [1]
Both horizontal and vertical flags with stripes or blue and white lozenges without arms can be considered official for use as state and civil flag and as civil ensign (on lakes and rivers). The variants defaced with the arms are not only unofficial, but not considered legal. However, the de facto used civil flag is in most cases a lozenge-style flag with the arms.
The exact shade of blue has never been set in stone, but most flags used by the public are approximately RGB 0-204-255; official use something closer to RGB 0-128-255. The lonzenges are neither set in number, except there must be at least 21, and the top right (incomplete) lozenge must be white.[2] Some people believe the lozenges to be representative of the lakes and rivers of Bavaria; or their colour to be that of the lakes or the sky or both (as in the Bavarian anthem, which says 'die Farben seines [or "deines" [3]] Himmels, Weiß und Blau' - 'the colours of His sky/heaven, white and blue'); but this has never been proven. The other argument is that they are historical.
