This gentleman has been a street trader with a clothes stall on Market Square, Castlebar now for many years
At the border town of Ollague, one of the first persons travellers encounter as they enter Chile from Bolivia is this young lady and her fast-food stall selling soft drinks and deep fried pastry things that promised more than they delivered.
On the day of my visit, it seemed she’d turned up for work in her underwear. She was quite keen to be photographed and I should have stuck with the full frontal approach, but wanted to include the FCAB locos shunting back and forth.
So here we are, squashed up in a hot tin hut under the desert sun, testing (and failing) with my very rudimentary Spanish, and with my reputation fast disappearing down the track along with the locos.

Seaside Grog: A drink reminiscent of the seaside villages of sailors long gone, with hints of honey and spices, bright citrus, spiced and 151 rums
The Lisbon Trader, a general cargo ship from Monrovia Liberia, unloads a catamaran from it's deck, yacht in front was unloaded earlier. The ship is moored at Ogden Point docks in Victoria BC Canada. This is a common site here as boats usually made in Asia are delivered to local clients. I think part of the reason this is done is because the boats are probably cheaper to buy offshore. Follow the money...haha! People in the Zodiac inflatable boat at right boarded the catamaran to pilot to it's local destination.

Hinter der Balge - Behind the Balge (river)
'The narrow alley Hinter der Balge in the Schnoor district is reminiscent of the former tributary of the Weser, the Balge. The first port of Bremen was located there, but has since been filled in.
The Schnoor was a quarter for river fishermen and sailors for many centuries, with more and more artisans and traders later moving into this quarter. The Balge, a branch of the Weser river, used to flow through the middle of the Schnoor, and sailors and fishermen also found their income on its banks. In the 19th century, the Balge was filled in to gain new land for building. Hinter der Balge still follows the course of the river at that time.
The alley with its small houses and their magical design is one of the most romantic corners of Bremen.'

Sibsey Trader Windmill was built in 1877 to replace an earlier post mill. In its day it was the ‘Rolls Royce’ of windmills, and one of the very last to be built in Lincolnshire. It has been described as “one of the finest mills in the country, with its slender tower and elaborate wrought iron balcony.”
It is one of the few six-sailed mills remaining in England. The mill was built in 1877 by local millwrights Saundersons of Louth, in a typical Lincolnshire style, to replace a small post mill. It is not exceptionally tall, containing only six floors above ground, and the height to the top of the cap is 74 feet 3 inches. The slenderness of the tower, and the flat landscape in which it stands, together create the impression that it is bigger than it actually is, and make the sails, already admittedly large, look enormous.
The first mill on the site, a post mill, was replaced in 1877 by the present six sailed tower mill. The tower mill was built by Saundersons of Louth, a firm of millwrights notable for their fine six sailed mills.
After the First World War, the mill was taken over by Tommy Ward, who ran the mill until his death in 1953. For most of his tenure at the mill, Tommy concentrated on producing animal feed as there was no profit in producing flour. An attempt to keep the business going failed two years later and the mill ceased to work. By then it had only four sails.
In the 1960’s it was earmarked by the then Ministry of Works as one of twelve windmills of national importance. In the early seventies, it and two other mills on the list were taken into the care of the Department of the Environment (successor to the Ministry of Works) and later that decade the restoration began.
Sibsey Trader Windmill is currently under the care of the English Heritage although the site is independently managed and run by Ian Ansell.

Loutro, Loutrone (Greek Λουτρόν [1] Λο Λουτρό) is a village in Greece in the south of Crete, on the coast of the Libyan Sea, 7 kilometers west of Chora Sfakion and 16 east of Agia Roumeli. Included in the community (dim) Shfakyu in the peripheral unit of Chania in the periphery of Crete. The population is 56 inhabitants at the 2011 census There are no roads to the village, so it can only be reached by sea from Chora Sfakion, or you can walk 5 kilometers from the village of Anapolis. The inaccessibility of the village and the lack of vehicles in it attract people who want to relax away from places of mass tourism.
Village
Loutro
Greek Λουτρό
The village of Loutro was built on the site of the ancient city of Finik (Φοῖνιξ, Act. 27:12), the toponym was preserved in the neighboring village of Finikas (Φοίνικας), which served as a harbor for Anopolis (Greek) Russian. and Aradena (Greek). Russian. The harbor of Loutro is considered to be the most windless in the southern part of Crete. And the security of the harbor from the sea by an island does not allow waves to break into the bay, which almost always ensures a calm sea. Thanks to a successful harbor, Phenicia flourished during the ancient and Roman periods, and later became home to the Saracen pirates and slave traders. The situation changed when Venetians arrived in Crete. They forced out the pirates and fortified Loutro with a small fortress, the ruins of which are still visible today.
The Turks who replaced the Venetians built a fort over the village. During the uprisings against the Turkish invaders, Loutro was actively used by the rebels to deliver ammunition products. It was in these places in 1821 was the rebel committee that directed the liberation struggle against the Turks.
At present, the villagers live predominantly by hunting, fishing and irregular tourism. There are several taverns and a small number of rooms.
