Fear not, we’ll soon be showing more mountain photos from ground level, but this is my way of saying – for those who can recognize the uniquely California landmark in the bottom right corner of these photos — that I’m back in California as of shorty before I took this photo at about 1:59 Friday afternoon, California time. The hint is that our flight path took us directly over Yosemite, and the Yosemite Valley. 🙂
The Santa Cruise on Geneva Lake at Williams Bay, in Walworth County, Wisconsin, includes a special visit to this secret lakeside Santa office, where he read off the list of all nice children on board the boat. It was a long list – it seems Wisconsin children are either nice, or have nice parents who get them on the right list :-).
Lake Michigan & the Chicago Skyline at sunset last Sunday during a short visit hosted and magnificently curated with walks, Art Institute, concerts & superb restaurants and food (thanks!) by Sam and Marissa. More from the current US visit in upcoming posts, no doubt :-).
These’ll be the last “city lights” shots from A’dam for 2025, since I’m currently on another continent, photos of which will soon begin appearing in this space 🙂
