Stockholm/Sweden into May this year, right before the Eurovision Song Contest. Beautiful city, very friendly people there, one of the best city trips ever.

mookie45 · 10-20-2016, 05:09 PM

Went over to Mexico this past week.

Playa del Carmen and Chichen Itza

BMW F22 · 10-20-2016, 06:24 PM

Whoa nice! Great pix guys!!

GoHokiesGo · 10-20-2016, 08:46 PM

Been given some incredible opportunities over the past few years for a lot of international travel due to jobs. We've been to 45-50 countries in the past 6 years as a result, so I definitely had to pick up photography as a hobby to capture all the places!

I have tons of shots on my website linked in my signature, but here's a few of my favorites-

New Zealand - Mount Cook and Hooker Valley - spent two weeks on the south island earlier this year. Honestly, it's just unfair that they have so much natural beauty in such a small place - breath taking views around every bend

New Zealand - That Wanaka Tree at Lake Wanaka - one of the most photographed trees in the world, and its actually a pretty tiny tree!

Maldives - Fihalhohi Island - my bungalow was the first on the left, amazing place! It's like swimming in an ocean of spring water.

Amalfi, Italy - spent christmas in Sorrento a couple years ago. The lemons used to make limoncello there are the size of footballs!

Algarve Coast, Portugal - Benagil Sea Cave - only accessible by boat, we rented a kayak to get here before the tour crowds came in

Kenya - Masai Mara NP and Wildlife Reserve - young male lion observing a small gazelle off in the distance

Rwanda - Virunga National Park - silverback mountain gorilla, hiked 6 hours through total bushwack mountains to see these amazing creatures in their wild habitat

Iceland - Vatnajökull Glacier Ice Cave - way out on the southeast corner of Iceland, took a tour of an ice cave where melting water runs under the glaciers to create these amazing ice caves

I have tons more, but I should space them out so that I don't hog the whole thread.

Just came back from island hopping in the Philippines. I hadn't been there in over 15 years.

Boracay. We went during off season and it was practically deserted, which is just how I like it. Typhoon season but we got lucky:

Yessir. Beautiful place, great restaurant (Spago), and what a view of the sunset. Maui is probably where I would go for a honeymoon.

Same to you!

I have a great story from that trip.

New wife and I decided to check out a new beach South of the resort.

While lying out I noticed ppl disappearing while walking along a cliff.

Was getting board so I followed the path to see where everyone was going.

Path took me to the top of a cliff with another beach on the other side.

I start walking that way...and notice exposed ( . )Y( . ), bush, and wangs all over the place.

the last thing I expected to see was nakedness. It was one of those things where you are shocked because it was in your face and not expecting it.

I wish I had some to post. I did not even have a digital camera back then!

The beach names are Big Beach and Little Beach. Little Beach had the ( . )Y( . ).

Maybe the Google image satellite will pick something up.
