#PhotoOfTheDay — Lungo il Tevere, #Rome.
Every year the Lungo il Tevere festa goes on in Rome along the banks of the Tiber River. I always wanted to go but never did before 2022. It was fun strolling along getting some reprieve from the sometimes suffocating heat of a Roman summer (it hit 41ºC this last summer!).

#PhotoOfTheDay: Had so much fun at Momoyama last night eating sushi and tasting sake with Minemasa Yuki, President of Yoshinogawa, one of the oldest sake breweries in Japan (founded in 1548). We were guided by Marcus Pakiser, one of 80 "sake samurais" in the world.

My #PhotoOfTheDay: Rosslyn chapel, #Scotland.
Do you know of Rosslyn from the Da Vinci Code, the rumor that it was the resting place for the Holy Grail, the connection to the Knights Templar? Or its spectacular carvings: Pagan fertility gods, upside-down devils, Norse mythology? Cursed pillars, mysterious vaults, rumors about what the St. Clair family is hiding here...

St Dunstan-in-the-East, London.
Designed by Christopher Wren circa 1100 on St Dunstan's Hill, halfway between London Bridge and the Tower of London, this church has been added to and rebuilt multiple times over the centuries (as is common for buildings of this age). It was largely destroyed in WWII and the ruins are now a public garden.

Effigial Knight's tomb, County Kilkenny, Ireland.
This #PhotoOfTheDay is the tomb of James Butler of Polestown, a medieval Gaelic warlord and knight. It lies in St Mary's Church (14th c.) and was carved by the famous O’Tunneys of Callan.

Olympic Cauldron, Vancouver, 2010. This photo was taken during the games, when the cauldron was lit. Attending the Olympics was a bucket list item for me and seeing Peter Forsberg, my favorite player, play his last game for Team Sweden was very special.

A view of Ragusa in Val di Noto of #sicily. This #UNESCO site was so designated because it "represents the culmination and final flowering of baroque art in Europe." It's my #PhotoOfTheDay today. Please enjoy picturing yourself there, masties.

My #POTD today may not inspire people as much as my other photos. But in terms of dreamy memories for me, it's up there. I have a bucket list which more or less runs my life. On there are some amazing things (Carnevale in Venice), but also basic things like "swing from a rope into a lake." That's the one that I accomplished here, in Bloomington Lake, #Idaho. (Video, in the comments, is my husband)

From one #UNESCO World Heritage site yesterday to another today: the Royal Alcazar of #Sevilla which we visited during Semana Santa. Chills. These are the baths of the palace. You can really feel the Islamic influence in Southern Spain. This wasn't on my bucket list at the time, but it should have been.

The medieval walled citadel of #Carcassonne in #France had long been in on my bucket list by the time we visited it. This photo was taken on top of one of the walls. I wondered, looking out on the countryside, how much the view had changed over the centuries.

B series from the strange Quinta da Regaleira, built by a Freemason and replete with esoteric and #pagan symbology throughout.

I think in terms of a fairyland, the Quinta da Regaleira in #Sintra is the most fantastical place I've been. I honestly could have chosen any number of photos for Sintra (and I'll share more another day) but for my #PhotoOfTheDay today i present the Initiation Well.
A few more photos from Sintra are in the B series (expand thread).

By the way here's that airport in San Ignacio I mentioned above. Very quaint. Excuse the heavy editing on the first one, it was too much fun to do.

B series today is more aerial shots of #Belize, including two where you can see the jungle meet the ocean. I took these on a flight from San Ignacio to the Cayes where we were staying for some diving. There was no airport in San Ignacio the first time I went....a happy development for people who want to see both the jungle and the ocean on their stay.

The Blue Hole is my #PhotoOfTheDay today. I've done many dives in Belize over two trips there, but never dived this. So much to see and do I guess.
More aerial shots in the B series (in the comments, as always). Tomorrow I'll finish up #Belize by posting photos from the Cayo jungle. That will be quite different.

Truly an imperfect photo.
For my last day of #Singapore #photos , i was really struggling. The most visually interesting (likely to earn the most boosts....And when did that start factoring into my choosing?!) were the Supertrees, but they aren't great photos. I mean it was 5 years ago! So they go in the B series. I really just wanted an homage to the city, so here we are.

Oh shoot. I forgot to include the photo of the kampong! Well, edited. Supertrees can be tomorrow.

B series today is varied: a family Durian party, a kampong, Speakers' Corner with a slightly incongruous sign above it, and the PARKROYAL on Pickering, which we loved years before it turned into a setting for West World season 3

This is #Singapore now. It is modern, clean enough to eat off the ground, and mannerly. Multicultural. Efficient.
When my mother-in-law was growing up, it was more like one of the photos in the B series. A series of rural villages called "kampongs," with the city a separate center. Her family left their kampong for an apartment in the city after the 1964 riots.

Cloud Forest, #Singapore. I'm going to do Singapore for the next few days.
5 years to the day that I woke up in Singapore, my MIL's native country. I was not looking forward to going, for some unknown reason. Foolish! It's over-the-top, modern, but with marks of its precolonial history. Plus, her family there is amazing. Warm, loving, extra... Kind of like me.
