Wieliczka Salt Mine: Touring Poland

On our trip to Poland, we tried to visit as many of the Seven Wonders of Poland as we could, including Wawel Castle and the Main Square of Krakow. The Salt Mine has received over 40 million visitors and has salt deposits over 13 million years old.  It took us 350 steps down into the mines, and a chilly 800 throughout the mines to tour to 20 different chambers, including the Chapel of St.Kinga, took us about 3 hours.

Blooming Flower Fields of Carlsbad

I dreamt I walked through the blooming Flower Fields of Carlsbad. A sea of pink, white, red and orange flowers in rows of waves as far as I could see. I stepped into a painting with the breezes blowing off the ocean and could see the ocean from atop the hill. I realized I wasn't dreaming. This was a dream come true.
