Hi, Dave, Thank you for taking a look at my photos! Glad you have found several to add to the forums. The Mateus Palace and Belem Tower were pretty amazing structures.

Aircraft...
Prior to crossing the Pacific in 1953 I had flown on a Lockheed L-049 Constellation in 1952 from Bangkok across South Asia and the Middle East to Europe and across the Atlantic. In 1958/9 I sailed around the world. Those were the golden years of travel! I'm sorry we didn't get to meet while you were in Colorado last summer. I read your blogs and when I got to your time in Colorado you had already moved on. We love living in Colorado. We had researched and visited before moving here so knew what we were getting into. But as winter approaches I would enjoy a tropical beach. Perhaps that will be our next vacation after the new year.

Aircraft...
My first flight across the Pacific was on a Pan Am flying boat...a Martin M-130 or Sikorsky S-42. My most recent flight from LHR to DEN was on the 787. I read your most recent blog and look forward to reading both your new and old blogs.

You mentioned very old planes...
which I thought was strange until I saw the date of your trip! I like reading old blogs...

Hi, Bob, I'm posting blogs of travels old and new here. So far my oldest one is from 1961 and my newest are from 2022. I've flown on some quite unusual, and now rare, aircraft over the years, as I'm sure you have too. My favorites of the past are a Sikorsky VS-44A flying boat and a de Havilland Dragon Rapide. But I've also been on everything in between, up to the 787. :)

Sinky Bay Beach

Bermuda
I know next to nothing about Bermuda, so this was an interesting blog for me. However, given the one big thing 'Bermuda' is associated with, the fact that this was called 'Sinky Bay' made me chuckle :)

Bermuda
Hi, Thank you for your comment on my Bermuda blog! I have more detailed information about the communities of Hamilton and St. George, Bermuda, in my 2010 blog. Cruise ships are popular way of traveling there. Interestingly, Bermuda's air connections are primarily with the USA.
