| Dick, right, and others, make shadows on the Spirit of Kauai as they prepare to go snorkeling as part of our 'Captain Andy' catamaran cruise in Hawaii last month. Unfortunately, I didn't feel well enough to snorkel. |

This cute little juvenile Nazca Booby casts a shadow on the rocky soil of one of the Galapagos islands.

| We had an excellent guide named Arnold when we visited China. Arnold, center, talks to the group, most of whom are in the shadow of the building at left. My husband Dick, with his shady hat, stood in the sun at right, to hear Arnold talk about the history of this section of the ancient emperors' fabulous Forbidden City. |

You sure do get around and to nice sunny places with shadows.
Hint, if you want sun do not come to California's central valley mid December to mid February. Low clouds and fog, day in and day out.
We had one sunny day last week and I got a few decent shots.
They have some funny names for birds in English: tits, boobies! I start to wonder about the people (men) who named them!!
Actually that Hacienda Hotel looks like a really fabulous place to stay and just as interesting looking as the other places. ;-)
Your travels are varied - and amazing! Paradise exists all over the globe, and you have found several of them already! I have never seen a Nazca Booby - what a shape and what feet! All these views look much different than winter on the prarie...
What a shadowy life you lead, Kay ;-)
I love the dragon.
You've been to many interesting places. I enjoy your blog very much and visit daily.
Oh wow, Kay you took me right into the forbidden city in China! Thanks for the tour. I love the shadow shots. Is the Booby so tame that you can photograph it so closely? thanks for all your visits and lovely comments on my blog. Hope you're having a great weekend. (((Hugs))) Jo

wow you have been on some great travels recently - great sequence of shots......
wonderful images of a lovely holiday!
I love San Diego. We used to go there quite frequently when we lived in Southern California. We would fly our plane to the main airport, walk up the street and catch the trolly, or just stroll along the sea walk to our hotel. I miss those trips. - Margy
What great shadows from some very interesting places! Love the dragon and the booby!

Was that dive over at Molokini? Hope you waved to my island (Molokai) when you were there.
Wow-hat a global feast you've offered us today!
Your photos are always so exciting! It's like being transported away on a little virtual holiday! Nazca Booby? Hehe... (ok, I think perhaps I am the juvenile one here ;)
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
