Route A seen approaching Trumpington 'village' (or Foster Road) on the Southern section of the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway. The people in the shelter will have to wait for this to reach the Park & Ride and turn around. The arrivals board read 7 minutes, but I think it was a little longer. Quality is not so great as it was a mobile phone shot under tricky lighting conditions.

It's supposed to be the only official city rooftop tour in the world. I just wish we had better weather
That's me and my friendly guide in the grounds of Wat Pho- the last shot in the temple complex, after a delightful two hour cultural and sensory extravaganza! I have photographed and spoken about a majority of the shrines in the large Wat Pho complex, barring the ones which were closed or under renovation. I have already spoken in some detail about the large chedis in the background the background (Phra Maha Chedi Si Ratchakan) earlier in this album and will hence save you the commentary. The tile roofed building in the background is Wat Pho's Medicine pavilion Wat Pho is considered the first public university of Thailand, teaching students in the fields of religion, science, and literature through murals and sculptures. A school for traditional medicine and massage was established at the temple in 1955, and now offers four courses in Thai medicine: Thai pharmacy, Thai medical practice, Thai midwifery, and Thai massage. The tiled building seen here is the Wat Pho Thai Traditional Medical and Massage School. This is the first school of Thai medicine approved by the Thai Ministry of Education, and is one of the earliest massage schools in Thailand. It remains the national headquarters and the center of education of traditional Thai medicine and massage to this day. Courses on Thai massage are held in Wat Pho, and these may last a few weeks to a year. (Bangkok, Thailand, Oct. 2018)

July 1, 2018 - Laufás Turf House in Eyjafjörður, Iceland.
"Laufás turf farm is a former vicarage, a dwelling house, situated in the densely populated coastal farmland of Eyjafjörður in northern Iceland. The farmstead was modernized in the 20th century with new dwelling houses and stables and is still an inhabited vicarage. The old farm is a part of the National Museum's Historic Buildings Collection and is managed by the Akureyri Museum. The main thoroughfare in the area has long passed near Laufás and still does. Laufás has been one of the better beneficia with many perquisites and is mentioned several times in the medieval Saga literature. The earliest written sources reveal that a church fire took place there in late 12th century .
Laufás counts 12 houses and the whole complex is around 29 m long and 28 m wide. Most of the farmstead is constructed in the period from 1840-1877, but the origin of the farm is older. Five gables face the yard to the west, forming a gabled farmhouse. To the north is the living room, then entrance, hall (skáli), eider down house (dúnhús) and storage. The entrance gives access to a passageway that connect the other houses; bridal house (brúðarhús), hearth kitchen, pantry and small living room, with a two storey baðstofa at the other end. Both the upper and lower floors of the baðstofa house are divided into three rooms. To the south of the farmstead is Laufás church within a cemetery. The outhouses are no longer standing.
The lower part of the turf walls are made from stone and strengur, but the upper part from turf, klömbruhnaus, kvÃahnaus, strengur and snidda, with all the rooftops covered in turf. The gables are from timber. The living rooms, entrance, bridal house and the entire baðstofa house have panelled interior walls and wooden floors. The rest of the houses have visible turf walls and earth floor. Remnants of a stave construction are present in the passageway, which testifies to the farm's old origins. Part of the farm was built from reused timbers.
Laufás represents a large turf house, built in the northern tradition, where a mixed building technique has been employed." Previous text from UNESCO World Heritage Site:

My sister with the guide dog statue outside the Floral Pavilion theatre.
New Brighton is where the first guide dogs were trained and the statue commemorates this.
She's a big fan of dogs (as you can tell). I guess this counts as portrait photography?
