Santorini - too beautiful to miss!

Too much to see - too much to do - posting on a blog had to wait. Yes, Santorini is everything it's said to be and more. Rumor has it you can't take a bad picture on Santorini and it's true. I've sorted and sorted and still too many to share. Enjoy! Maybe you will be enticed to visit and help the Greek economy.

Don't pass up a chance to go. Do find a place on the Caldera side facing the volcano; it's worth every Euro.

Stay in north Fira to avoid the boat crowds.

Not everyone is happy; it was a hot day!

Leaving Santorini

It's a wonderful town!

And a wonderful State. Congratulations New York. This posting is dedicated to you and all the people celebrating love and equality.

New York City is one of the most amazing places in the world - and reflections in New York are no exception... so much diversity, so many possibilities. My first experience was as a dazzled 16-year-old from a small Florida town. A few years later I worked on Wall Street and claim to be the first woman on the stock market floor. That was 1961 - I got off the elevator on the wrong floor and was promptly ejected by two horrified men saying "No women allowed!" Times have changed.

I've since had the excitement and pleasure of visiting New York many times.  I won't waste more space with words. Here are my reflections of Manhattan.
