CLive,
Thank you for your kind remarks on both my reports on India. The trip was wonderful, as was having two weeks with my daughter! At 21, she is in college and working so time is at a premium.
the optical illusion is probably due to my negligence in choosing an angle too impulsively. there are details at http://www.uoregon.edu/~struct/resources/case_studies/case_studies_simplebeams/pei_louvre/pei_louvre.html

Clive,
I enjoyed your statue slide show. We saw some of them last week when in London. I found a statue you did not include: Dick Whittington and his cat in Highgate (I will upload it, once I have sorted out my London photos).
Just a question: What happened to Dickins & Jones in Regent Street?

Clive,
I really enjoyed viewing your slide show today! Great idea to pull all the statues together in one presentation! I have to admit that my two favorites fall on opposite sides of the scale. I am touched by the WWII Memorial to Women soldiers and I am tickled by the elephant with the pyramid on its back.

I enjoyed your slide show. The picture I liked best was the one where the statutue is bending over and using an
old (/) mesuring device.

Clive, Thanks for reading my Budapest report. The statue of the little jester may be a recent addition, I loved it because it is the ideal foregrond to the museums in Buda.
The lace ladies at the fishermen's bastion probably sell their lace for the same reason as the flower ladies: a welcome extra income.

How was Scotland? I meant to be going there in November, but I'm not sure. Seems to me that it will be too cold, well we'll see.

...you can taste the wine better now. Thanks for reading my review... I'm not sure if all the pictures were uploaded when you read it.

Clive,
Thank you for your kind words regarding my Big Sur report. I am so fortunate that this beautiful slice of earth is just 2 hours from my front door!
I also wanted you to know that I read your posting regarding Photo uploads and I am trying to keep to 3 at a time. I see your point and agree with it. i want to do an album on the California coastline, but I will upload them slowly and pull it together in a couple of weeks!
You are a terrific Globo member - always upbeat and positive!
Eire
