2007-10-04 Kansas

I traveled with my family to and around the USA for three weeks in May and June 2007. We flew to Wichita, rented a car and drove to California. Then another flight to New York, where we stayed one week.

Our first night in Kansas we stayed in Protection. The motel was not expensive, but we only stayed one night.

The interior was colorful ...

and it seems they had a lot of different towels.

This part of Kansas is famous for it's cattle and grain

2007-10-03 Summer memories

In May I traveled with my family to the USA. One of our goals was to visit my friend Janice, whom I met in London 1976 when I was a backpacker. We have kept in touch, but this was our first meeting in 31 years.
She lives in Santa Cruz, California with walking distance to the Pacific Ocean.

My daughters could not resist getting their feet wet in the Pacific outside Santa Cruz, even if the water was a bit cold.

One of the things we visited in Santa Cruz was the "Mystery Spot" http://www.mysteryspot.com/ a strange place,
but a lot of laughs.

Watch me grow, I'm the second person from the left in the picture above. My wife http://mariasgarnhandelser.blogspot.com/index.html took the pictures.


I think I grew at least 30 centimeters! Great feeling!!!

2007-10-02 Spider

While walking around and photographing windows I found this spider sitting on the window sill. He(she?) did not move even when I got very close with my camera and lens. I tried to make it turn around so I could get a "face" but he was too shy?.

I've no idea what kind of spider this is, but I'm sure there is somebody reading this who can tell me.
When I stopped taking pictures it ran away,

An old building in contrast with more modern. I grabbed this shot near Tantolunden in Stockholm.
