Follow me on Tumblr

Friends,

I started a Tumblr account a short while back as I am nearing my limit on blogger for photos. I kind of got sick of fiddling around with bloggers limits and quirks with positioning.

In seeking to present more of my photos, I have found Tumblr much easier. I can't say it's perfect (I would have designed a few things much differently) but it sure is a whole lot easier to display photos. That said, I'm not saying a complete goodbye to this site as my blog posts date back some 5 years now, but I do want to let you know where to find more frequent updates on my happenings.

Blessings, Christine

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood!

Saturday was an exquisite day (actually every day since as well). My friend from Zimbabwe had the wonderful idea of going paddle boating on the Vltava river (Moldau for you classical music whizzes and German speakers). It cost us 250 Czech korun for an hour (15 USD). We took a bottle of white wine, some water, and some sandwiches and had a great time on the river. I've tried this in the Potomac basin in DC as well as the Englischer Garten in Munich, but I think Prague is the best for this type of thing. We paddled all around, even an island. 

Jolly Old England

As I turned another year older recently, I took advantage of an offer to meet up with a friend in Bath, England. It was only 4 1/2 days, but oh was it worth it! Bath is an outstanding example of Georgian architecture and it has a treasure trove of ancient Roman baths. I loved learning about Georgian England as well as the Roman Empire and the process of visiting the Roman baths. I've posted some of my photos on tumblr. Click here.
