"WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WORLD" Ulla58214's Profile


SEVILLA

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

WHAT USED TO BE...

My father worked in the WTC for eight years. I can't even count how many times I have been in those buildings. I took this picture the last time I was there.

SUNNY DAYS IN SEATTLE???

In Seattle? A little cloudy maybe but they do actually happen.

BEACHES AND BOAT DRINKS

Ahhhh the Carribean. Only Jimmy Buffet can describe it... I swear!

'Cause I want to be there,
I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice
Fill it up with good red wine,
And I'm-a chewin' on a honeysuckle vine.


Once you get a taste of it you can't help but want to go back again and again. Whether Aruba, St. Thomas, Cozumel or Puerto Rico you will never want to leave.

A LITTLE BOY I MET...

I met this little boy when his grandparents invited us to their home outside of Xian, China. They actually lived in a room carved out of a mountain and were known as local cave dwellers. Was I ever a freaky looking chick to him!

SUNSET IN THE WASATCH

This was taken from the balcony of my friends cabin in Utah. For anyone familiar with skiing or snowboarding the highest peak on the right side is the top of Snowbird Ski Resort. On a clear day you can see the tram coming up.

Dyes at a Market in Morocco

Walking thru a labyrinth of a somewhat dreary and dark market (other than the people) in northern Morrocco I came upon this dye shop. I couldn't believe the colors. The photo doesn't nearly do it justice.

THE WORLD CAPITAL OF PORT

Oporto, picturesque rooftops, maybe I had a little too much port by then watching the boats pass by overlooking the river on the other side.
