Watery Wednesday: Baddeck, Nova Scotia

Photos by Kay Davies


It was just one of those days during my solo cross-Canada train and rental-car trip last year. I set out to find the Alexander Graham Bell Museum, which is supposed to be located somewhere near this corner in the town of  Baddeck on  beautiful Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. However, when I saw the water, I just had to stop the car and snap a couple of photos, without thinking of composition or crooked power poles (or maybe telephone poles, near the Bell museum). I was just thinking, "The water is so beautiful. I love it."

Watery Wednesday: ship to ship to shore

© Photo by Kay Davies

On the first day of our visit to Russia this past August, my husband insisted upon going ashore to explore. I chose to nap but, when I woke up, I amused myself by taking photos through our open cabin window. This is obviously the place for cruise ships to dock in St. Petersburg. We had crossed this bridge a few hours earlier on the bus Viking River Cruises sent to pick up passengers from the airport. A Russian guide was on the bus with us, so we had a guided tour before we ever boarded the Viking Surkov.

Watery Wednesday: Spanish splashing

This is one of my favorite close-ups of a fountain. My husband, Richard Schear, took this photo when he went on a tour to Seville, Spain, a tour I chose to forego because I wasn't prepared for the time and energy it took. Instead, I chose a shorter tour in Cadiz, where our Royal Caribbean cruise ship had docked.
My much healthier husband enjoyed Seville very much. It was December, 2008, and our cruise left from Barcelona to visit other ports in Spain as well as Madeira, and Lisbon, Portugal, Casablanca, and the Canary Islands.
