Hi guys,

Has anyone thought about putting captions on their pictures? Wouldn't it be nice to know where these were taken? In case I also wanted to go see for myself?

Moderator - is there no rule for identifying pictures.

Otherwise, people are just posting random pictures randomly, without thought, without purpose, waiting for comments. There is usually a reason a random picture was posted. Let's hear the reason.

Right on. We should enforce that rule, and hope that posters also understand that pictures without information is like sex without foreplay.

It's only half the deed.

I always thought it was crazy that they made Diana look so much shorter than Charles in the pictures- she was taller than him!

She was better than him.
I had a great time in London then. It was like the Rose Parade in the streets. Hyde Park the night before for the Batchelor Party, me and about 500,000 other people.

Just to reassure everyone you're not driving one of those "gay" Miata's...you're driving a Miata Roadster

aap, yes wine from down under is very popular in Sweden. I would say that Australia in Sweden in general is considered as a top place for vacation

Btw. while talking about wine, i yesterday saw one of my favourite videos again, Sideways, excellent although here they taste some excellent US wine. Would love to take the same tour some time, but perhaps not as exciting

Someone mentioned that it would be interesting to get more info regarding the pictures and i agree. The picture was shot at the border shop in Puttgarden (where you go by ferry to Denmark from Germany).
http://www.viamichelin.com/viamichelin/gbr/dyn/controller/Cartes?strCountry=EUR&strAddress=puttgarden&strMerged=&x=34&y=21&ie=UTF-8

Due to high tax in Sweden the booze is much cheaper in Germany hence they have put a large large store here where Swedes can fill up on their return trip from Europe.
Here i came back after a 2 week 10k(!) mile journey with my girlfriend stopping at Luebeck, Hannover, Prague, Cescky Krumlov, Vienna, Venice, Rimini, Bologna, Cannes, Nice, Monaco, Como, St Moritz, Davos......and home via Puttgarden via Denmark to Stockholm/Sweden.

Here is another (not so random) picture i took of the very cool Hunderwasser House in Vienna.


I found more pictures of it here http://www.outbackphoto.com/places/2000/20001022_Hundertwasser.html

Great picture, Vern. Looks like the photographer that took the photo for the factory poster must have been very nearby that day in Connecticut...
