At the Holiday Inn
Carrow road
Norwich
Our room was the door on the right.
I’m impressed with the Holiday Inn. Everything about it is smart.
The brickwork through the window at the end of the corridor is part of the football stadium. I walked up to the window, and by looking left I could see the football pitch.
We were on the first floor (that’s 2nd floor to Americans).
After the match it took only a few minutes to get back to the hotel. The bar was full of Norwich City fans, so many of them must stay there on match days… the bar wasn’t open to the public.
Me and my mate enjoyed a pint or two in the bar (mine was Guinness, of course 😂) proudly displaying our colours.
We then went into town to meet up with our wives.
A great weekend was had by all !
Norwich
One of Chicago’s most legendary hotels, located near Grant Park on Michigan Ave., with views of Lake Michigan. A Windy City icon since 1893.
it has played host to U.S. presidents, international celebrities and performers, foreign dignitaries and elite travelers from around the world.
Amazing experience just to walk through!
The next day, before heading to the airport, we hopped in a cab out to Coronado Island and the Hotel del Coronado for brunch.
All in all, I survived the venture to San Diego. I don't think that I would ever move down there though.
A Pinhole project between July and December 2019. I have stayed in hotels once or twice a week, most Months, for 30 years and in December it comes to an end.
I am attempting to show visually how I feel about this, absent from my family, frustrated, often bored.
The pinhole camera and the way it captures time is a perfect vehicle.
Aquest hotel és ja un clàssic de Benicàssim que val la pena visitar. La seva construcció és elegant i clàssica i té una esplèndida terrassa a peu de platja.
D'altra banda, està ubicat a la zona de les Villes antigues del passeig marítim que val la pena visitar en un agradable passeig.

Originally built between 1827 and 1829 as a one floor Spanish colonial style home for cattle rancher Don Juan Bandini. In the 1850s Bandini sold his home, and by 1869 it was restored and extended with a second floor into a stagecoach stop and hotel.
Great looking hotel with fabulous art on its walls. Sadly, a bit too much a night for this poor boy.
The Adler Hotel Ruins
The Adler Hotel, also known as the Hotel Adler, was a 150-room, five-story hotel in Sharon Springs, New York, that operated from 1929 until 2004. Known for its therapeutic sulfur spa, it catered primarily to a Jewish clientele who travelled to Sharon Springs in the summers. It was kosher, with two kitchens. It was built in the Spanish Colonial Revival style and was adjacent to the Pavilion Hotel (demolished in 1941), which had been a summer destination for guests such as the Vanderbilts, Rensselaers, and Oscar Wilde. Ed Koch worked as a busboy at the Adler Hotel in 1946. When Steven Spielberg was preparing for Schindler's List, he interviewed survivors staying at the hotel.
Abbott Street in the Gastown district of Vancouver BC, on a wet Saturday morning.
I liked the light, and the Metropole Hotel sign. It reminds me of old film footage I saw (someone posted it on YouTube) that was taken from the front of several different streetcars as they travelled around the city circa 1910 or maybe earlier. In one sequence the streetcar went past the Metropole hotel at its original location across the street from where it is in this shot. The signs look similar. That sat well with me for some reason. BTW, it isn't a good hotel anymore, if it was back in the day. All the old hotels in this area have been converted into single room occupancy, "affordable housing" for those living below the poverty line.
En una noche de fotos nocturnas por Zamora capital, cerca de las 2 de la mañana bajamos mi novia y yo a hacer unas fotos al Tren Hotel Madrid - Galicia.
Una de las apuestas más inteligentes de Renfe a mi manera de ver.

"Neum est la seule station balnéaire de Bosnie-Herzégovine. Et pour cause: c'est le seul accès à la mer du pays, une enclave maritime étrange en Croatie. Du coup, les promoteurs immobiliers se sont fait plaisir, puisqu'on trouve ici la plus forte concentration d'hôtels de toute la Bosnie-Herzégovine. Plus de 20.000 lits dans des immeubles sans charme, les uns sur les autres, coincés entre des collines abruptes et cinq petites plages de galets, de rochers, de remblais et de ponton en béton." (Le "Petit Fûté")
It is quite common here on Luzon Island in the northern Philippines to rent a hotel room by the hour.
Antes de ir ya tenía el encuadre en mente, el edificio me tenía loco. Poder quitarme la espinosa y que la foto me guste, no puedo pedir más 😊
Il est aussi connu sous le nom d’hôtel de Vienne, pour avoir appartenu d’abord à Jean de Vienne, Sarladais né dans une famille pauvre en 1557, qui après une ascension sociale remarquable, devint surintendant des Finances d’Henri IV.
El Grand Hotel Evropa de Praga és un magnific antic establiment d'estil modernista. Per desgracia, al igual que el continent que li dona nom, sembla trobar-se en un punt indefinit, tancat i en espera que un nou projecte l'apunti en bona direcció... o no.
======================
The beautiful art-nouveau Grand Hotel Evropa, in Prague looks exactly like the fantastic movie "Grand Budapest Hotel" of Wes Anderson.
But being now closed it looks quite similar like the continent of the same name, without a clear project in mind and a bleak future. We have a problem.
This is a drilled wooden block in one of my garden bee-hotels. There's been loads of activity from male Osmia mason-bees, but the females are yet to emerge.
In the morning while the bees are waiting for the sun to come around, they all sit in the openings; having "roosted" in the holes overnight. They pop their heads in and out and keep checking on conditions. I tried to capture this, and took several shots. This is two images merged in PSE to get the two main bees both in rough focus.
Even though the face of the block is perpendicular, I rotated it 90 degrees. I liked it better that way!
A 2nd generation BMW Series 3 on that same roll of exposed film from the flea market. And the Volkswagen Sharan that tells us it's no earlier than '95. Google Street View shows the same hotel looking mostly like this in 2019, and with some extensions in more recent pictures.
