Iceland or Greenland?

Greenland

 I heard, sometime ago, that Iceland and Greenland’s names were suppose to be the opposite, some how they got mixed up! Well, I believe that is true, what do you think?  This is Greenland.

A Full Rainbow

Kauai, Hawaii – 2011 – Canon G9

One day we decided to go for a ride, I was with my dad and step-mother, so we drove to Lihue via the country back roads.   Upon returning to Poipu I could see cars all over as we came down a slight hill.  We were surrounded by trees so I couldn’t see what was happening but then, we came out of the trees and to my delight there was a full rainbow.  We pulled over and I put my wide angel lens on my camera and I took this beautiful photo and just in time because it started raining!

I was hoping to get a photo of the Salt Lake Valley, but I was on the wrong side of the plane.  I did get this good shot, though!

Feet with Rooster

After a walk along the beach, I sat down to RELAX and watch the surfers as they glided across the waves.  All of a sudden I heard ‘cock-a-doodle-doo’, I looked behind me to see this beautiful Rooster.  I quickly turned around to get a photo of him with my feet, as he walked away!

The TABERNACLE was built between 1864 and 1867.  It has a seating capacity of 8,000.  It was built as a gathering place for the Saints.  It is a beautiful, inspiring building!  It’s acoustics are amazing! Notice the marble column on the right of this photo, it is actually a wooden column that was painted to look like marble.

It was a wonderful day, touring Temple Square with my cousin, Raewyn and her husband, Mike, who were visiting from New Zealand!  The TABERNACLE was awe inspiring as we thought of the early Mormon saints who built it!  It’s acoustics are awesome!
