Majes Project Thank you reading the blog and I am happy you liked it.
I've never heard of the Majes Project before. I googled it and found this "The Majes Project involves... ...the construction of a water storage and a control system for hydroelectric-power generation, and the irrigation of 60, 000 ha of desert lands in the S coastlands of Peru."
Nice photos, especially of the Condors. Do you know of the Valleys' history, prior to '82? It's quite interesting. The Majes Project, undertaken by 7 fortunate engineering companies. Canada, Great Britan, Spain, Italy, Sweden, South Africa, and Argentina.
Ack så fint Hej Åke. Jaha, nu har ni varit ute och rest igen. Jag hinner inte läsa allt men som vanligt vackra bilder. Jag ser att du antingen har köpt en ny kamera med filmfunktion eller så hade du en videokamera sedan tidigare. Häftigt med det där vattenspelet. Det så ut som om det sköt åtskilliga meter upp i luften med vatten. Åren går och jag har fyll de 60. Jag hade jättepartaj i Nyköping på en krog med släkt och närmast sörjande. I höst skall jag flyga ballong är det tänkt. Då tar jag med kameran upp i luften. Hur har du det på skolan. Jag träffade Lars Hjort på en middag med Gleerups för ett tag sedan. Det blir mycket nytt nu inför nya gymnasiereformen. Jag tror att en hel del blir väldigt bra för eleverna. Det krävs inte så djupa (kanske tyvärr) kunskaper för att bli elektriker. Det passar många svaga elever bättre( jag har många sådana) och så slipper de tänka på att det skall vara högskoleförberedande. Jag trivs men det är ett himla slit med att vara mentor. Ha det bra och hälsa öfriga.

How to reach Gammalsvenskby/Klosterdorf/Zmijivka To visit Zmijivka by local transport: When we visited Zmijivka we stayed in Kherson and visited Zmijivka as a day tour. We took an early bus, possible the first in the day, from Kherson to Berislav. In Berislav we changed bus to a bus going to Zmijivka. I don't remember how many hours the transport took but we had plenty of time, a few hours, on our hands in Gammalsvenskby before we had to go back to Berislav and back to Kherson again.
To visit Zmijivka by car: We didn't try that for obvios reasons but it is of course possible. I googled "Kherson, Car rental" and found a car rental in the town Kherson. So I guess it is possible to rent a car there. We had a map with us. It was "Ukraine - Moldawien 1:1000000" by the publishers Freytag & Bernt. Zmijivka can be found on that map. I can not guarantee that you can drive from Kherson to Zmijivka only using that map though. We didn't drive ourselves when we were in Ukraine.
search for Klosterdorf thank you for replying to my earlier email. What I would like to know if you know the name of the town of Klosterdorf now, I planning a trip this summer to Ukraine and would like to see Klosterdorf as I was born there, but left at the age of 18 months and all the town have had name changes after the war. What year did you take the photo and do you know the new name. Thanks for any help you can give.
A link you don't need to ask permission for Hi Rosy,
You don't need to ask permission if all you wish to do is to put up a link to a photo on the web.

Link to photo Hello and congratulations for your photoblog, your Nazca pictures reminded me of my own trip and I am going to upload my pictures to my facebook, but since I didn't take any pictures of the "map" I am wondering if you'd let me link your photo http://photos.travelblog.org/Photos/27950/308993/f/2684219-Nazca-Lines-Map-3.jpg to my facebook giving you full credits of course. Take care and continue the adventures

Stiligt Ja, MC:n är nästan lika fin som den jag kanske ska köpa, men bara nästan.
Det ser ut som om McDonald's serverar Börek, då är det ju iaf. snabbmat :-D
Är Ohridsjön känd för ngt, eller varför ringer namnet så bekant, tro?
We are Emma Holmbro and Ake Dahllof. We live in Stockholm, Sweden.
We have travelled more or less regularly since the mid 1990-ies and it seems like the more we travel the more difficult it is to decide where to go next. Not because we are running out of places to visit but because we find more places we want to go to faster than we manage to travel to them.
Some of the things from our travel bucket list we have ticked off since we started this blog in 2006 are
