On the shore of the Bosphorus

That small minaret was very loud

The cooler weather has been here for a few days and the bees have been few and far between. When I have spotted them they are buzzing around madly trying to gather pollen before Winter arrives.

I am running late tonight - too many interesting shows on TV LOL. These are some photos of the honey bees that have been buzzing around the little purple bush in my garden. I have never managed to find out the name of this plant, but the bees really love it.

These are some more photos of the Teddy Bear bees that fly around my neighbour's garden. I have been making the most of my visits before the new people move in. The bees will disappear soon as the weather is now getting cooler and Winter will soon be here.

西江千户苗寨 (Miao Village of a Thousand Households) is the largest Miao tribal village in China.

Largest Dong Rain and Wind Bridge in the world.

坐落于此程阳八寨旁的林溪河上的程阳永济桥是世界上规模最大的风雨桥。风雨桥是侗族建筑的代表，集廊、亭、塔、阁于一身。侗族村寨大多建在河溪两旁，跨水而居。桥是重要的交通枢纽，桥上的亭子，供人休息，聚会交流，遮风挡雨，因此叫“风雨桥”。

We stopped for a while over looking this beautiful loch. It was a perfect morning - a break in the weather and the water was like glass.

We have stayed two nights in the Raddison Blu on The Royal Mile in Edinburgh and the wi-fi has been excellent. We are now back on the road, so who knows from now on.
