I'm so tempted to buy the wonderful foods I see in street markets. But being a tourist with nowhere to store and cook I regret I must pass. Much of the fruit and veg I have never seen before and I'm eager to try. Which is true I suppose for most folks in England. If we don't recognise a sweet potato - then we don't buy it. I do miss the vanilla flavoured Apples ( Custard Apples ) I had in Australia.

I love being out of doors, including some time roughing it. But I also love showers, a nice meal and a comfortable bed. Glad to know there's adventuresome folks out there!

The second photo is really scary to me. I hope Cuba is not hit by a big earthquake before they reinforce their buildings.

Yes, Rob, that bottom image is scary because you just know a strong wind will knock those homes down. Poor people using what they can find to create a shelter and home. Part of the triumph of a half century of Castro rule.

Actually, that collapsed group (Sandy damage, I believe) is not endangering the rest. No one's living in that; it appears to be in the process of being scavenged for materials.

Part of the triumph of a half century of American embargo. "This boycott provides that no vessel, be it US flagged or foreign that calls at Cuba may thereafter call at a US port"

Like many port cities, Santiago spills down its hills (or up, if you prefer), leading to creative adaptations.

Samantha and her husband had a great time at the Pearl Brewery Farmers Market. It's close to the Riverwalk and full of fresh merchandise from local vendors.

Great family travel destination -- and a nice family photo!

Looks like a great day out for all the family. My kids and grandkids love being hands on with creatures. Interaction with young people builds a foundation for their life. Growing up without fears.

Hi guys. Thank you for the comments. We had a great time. It was our first aunt/niece trip and we had a blast. Thank you again for the comments. Happy travels.

Assuming these ponies are well cared for, as most animal owners do for their animals, the children of Vienna are being denied an important experience. The opportunity to interact with and enjoy a large animal and ride on it. Where else will kids living in a large city go for such an experience? I recall with great fondness and excitement my first pony rides at the fair and am tired of a shrill minority dictating its will to the rest of us.

The Circus - the Clydesdale Shire Horse - Donkey Rides on the beach and the Goldfish. All driven to extinction by tree huggers.

We just visited this park recently and didn't see anyone on this ride, nor were we particularly interested in it.

Though it’s been there for 50 years, it was new to PortMoresby, on a visit with friends at that most perfect season, springtime in the desert.

This is one of my favorite attractions in the Palm Springs area, and is especially great to visit with children (of all ages). Beautiful photos -- thanks for sharing, and glad you got to see it all.

Really liked the Giraffe photos.
