Topic: VACATION PICTURES Posted: September 02 2004 at 13:00 |
Well its quite funny how most my photobucket album is down.. but my signature is still coming thru... the power of Greg, I guess.
So I'm putting the Finland pics up from a friends photobucket account. I wonder why its always my account thats affected...hummm
Anyway, here's my trip to Helsinki: Me alone on the Waterfront.. or frozen front..
This is actually an island in the middle of the bay.. this was taken from atop the cruise ship
The Sibelius Monument

No I'm really not a bug person.. and as a New Yorker the thought of eating fried roaches is just too much, not to mention giant water bugs, locusts and scorpions.
Wasn't going there!! But I watched other people do it...yck!

Thanks for sharing- beautiful places, great shots!
Did you actually eat any fried bugs while you were there? My mind says 'probably not much different than seafood' but my eyes say 'exterminator'...
...don't even think 'tastes like chicken'

Thanks guys. Actually I worked in travel for 14 years.. and at a convention in 2002 I won business class tickets to Malaysia.. a few months later my entire department was laid off, so I decided to make the most of my free tickets and went to Malaysia and Thailand for over a month, just me and my son. We had a blast!
Wait till you see my Australia and New Zealand pics...

Someone asked about my photos I took in Finland a few years ago, and I thought... I will scan some of those in later.. but I thought I'd share some of my favorite vacation photos... These are from Malaysia and Thailand... taken in Jan-Feb, 2003.
First... Lankawi, Malaysia
