Zion National Park, Utah
As we drove thru Zion National Park we saw a few deer, so I took this photo of this beautiful deer looking for food in the snow, then he looked up and saw me!

There is an area at Sea Life Park where there are all types of birds, they are gorgeous with their bright colors! You can go in and feed them, take photos of them or just RELAX with them! I chose the latter and slowly sat on this bench, put my feet up and RELAXED! I got a bit nervous as a bunch of them took off because someone was coming towards us!

Niederkassel, Germany
As, my friend, Christine and I walked thru the forest and along the Rhein, we saw this mother duck with her ducklings right behind her. No matter where she went or what she did, they stayed in this straight line! Notice the Crane behind them watching for dinner.

After arriving at our friend Christine’s house, we went for a walk along the River Rhine. It was so lovely and peaceful. There were Ducks and Swans which we fed. One of the mother’s and her two babies, Cygnets, stayed back, but finally came over for food. These little Cygnets were adorable!

Here is the walking bridge that takes you over to the peninsula where we walked thru the forest to the River Rhine. Though this water is apart of the Rhine, the big part of the river, that has river boats on it, is on the other side. We passed beautiful flowers, swans, other people & had a wonderful time walking thru the forest and along the Rhine!

Stratford Upon Avon, England
The River Avon majestically flows through Stratford Upon Avon which is a beautiful, quaint village where William Shakespeare was born, raised and died (1564-1616). He is remembered throughout the city. He was buried in Holy Trinity Church, whose spire you can see in the distance of this photo.

Saint George’s, Cardiff, Wales
Our GPS did something interesting and something we really liked, it took us out into the country. The streets were tiny, luckily there weren’t to many other cars on the roads. There were high hedges, so we couldn’t see a lot, but once in a while things would open up and we’d see some beautiful vistas. This is one of those, we had to stop so I could take this photo of this arch with two horses passing by.

While Chelsea McKenzie Pacini and I were having lunch with Ilaria Silli, (a great friend from Italy) I noticed people walking across a bridge and then they would stop and look down. So, after lunch we walked over there to see what they were looking at and this is it, a Swan sitting on her nest! I am assuming this is a female because generally the female sits on her nest for up to 6 weeks, the male however, can if necessary. I love swans, they are beautiful and so graceful in the water. Also, they mate for life which I think is really cool! They are beautiful! CONGRATULATIONS go to Donald Donald E. Russell & Raewyn Lyes Viljoen for guessing correctly, at least the Swan, the nest is an added bonus! Donald & Raewyn, send me your mailing address in a private message (Facebook) and I will send you your gift for guessing correctly!!
