Mazatlán, Mexico 2008 photos
Added a last few pics.
See my Mazatlán, Mexico 2008 photo set on flickr.
Adios.
El Centro in Maz is great. But I don’t like Mexico, in general.
That country is getting far too affluent for me. Too fat.
Literally, in 2008, seems to me, there are more obese Mexicans, even, than obese gringo tourists. The downside of making economic gain.
Masons do Hawaii right
It’s a special day over at the Mason house. …
The 2wk anniversary of their return from Hawaii.
I’ve got many of my best photos from their 2 week family holiday posted on flickr now. (I tagged along as official photographer.)
It’s almost impossible for the family Mason to organize big holidays away. (I’m shocked they pulled this one off.) And it turned out GREAT.
Jane forever has been trying to organize a big holiday with her life long friend Monica.
Monica’s daughters had plenty of fun too. This trip worked for everyone.
Henry had his birthday on the island.
One day, not so far in the future, the Masons will look back on Kauai as one of the best family trips ever.
I feel lucky to have been with them there.

Polihale State Park, Kauai
The best beach on the island, I thought, was remote Polihale. At the south end of the Na Pali cliffs. As far as you can drive west.

My favourite campground, too.

The pretty spider we saw many times on the island. Some call them “garden spiders”.
National Tropical Botanical Garden, Kauai
Pretty pictures from our short visit. Almost all the flowers are introduced species.

PS
Flickr just added video clips up to 90sec in length. I will stick with YouTube, for now.
The Door to Hell – Uzbekistan
This place in Uzbekistan is called by locals “The Door to Hell”. It is situated near the small town of Darvaz.
Geologists lit the gas leaking out of the cavern once upon a time. It’s been burning since, for 35 years without stop.

We LOVED it.

I forget which 5 star resort we were crashing that evening.
