Regina in Riga


ABC Wednesday - letter R
Being under the influence of Odd Shot Monday I decided to take part with those funny pictures.
Of course, as my name begins also with R I had an enormous temptation to step out and show myself too...
-
If I only could to clue those two pictures quickly together - it's the same tower.
And here I am, in Riga and in the mirror of the tower. Always mysterious :).
But now the opening photo of the letter R:

M/S Regina Baltica on Daugava river, port of Riga
Regina Baltica is an old cruise ship, before the ferry used to go from Stockholm to Tallinn. Now it's soon finishing it's work at Stockholm - Riga route too and who knows which country will buy it...
I have many good and bad memories with Regina, mostly good but too heavy storms too. But that's passé, gone, finished.
I made the last cruise to Riga last spring, the same time as now, and don't regret that I never shall step on M/S Reginas board again. When Regina chainged the route, they changed the crew too and nothing was the same. So ships are not only vessels but seamen too...
Another two R-s:
Restaurant in Riga

No two R's but just funny...
An art gallery in Riga
, I had no time to peep in.

But I said them that I'll come back, touching the donkey's nose.
It's promising, isn't it!?

Odd Shots Monday

This was an extraordinary bungy jump on the 21st of July last year..
The balloons were sent up by anti-cancer supporters. The bungy jumpers were the place they used to be sometimes. All together it was quite odd.
Or was it a clever setup?
I was happy to see this event in Stockholm City and more happy, that I had my camera in my pocket too...

Madrid Sky from the plane




I'm still pausing - it means I have no time today to look & comment others, but I could not keep myself back to add one more photo again...

The Shadow of the Cloud




With that post I say goodbye for a while and wish everybody a great weekend.
Just now is summerwarm weather here in Stockholm county and we drive to the forest to enjoy it. As there is no internet (thanks God!) I can't comment others today...sorry.

May-be the pause is coming longer, who knows...


Take a break! & Ta en pause! & Pea vahet! ...is my today's motto.
