All very moving!

Thank you for posting these photos, beyond heartbreaking humans could carry out such satanic acts.

God help us all.

I had the unique privilege of touring the Nevada Test Site, now referred to as the National Security Site (NSS) before they closed it to the public. It was a very interesting tour and a little surreal to be standing at ground zero on Frenchman's Flat and on the rim of the Sedan crater.

We’ve travelled up from Krakow to the Polish capital for a few days.

This certainly is a mix of old and new.

That’s my Son having fun, as young people do

I forgot to post this previously.

A couple of weeks ago we went and saw the mighty Depeche Mode in a tiny little place in Austria called Klagenfurt.

I’ve seen no better concert and was made even more special by the accompanying 30,000 screaming Europeans.

Get and see them if you can, they’ve still got it!

HFW003 · 08-11-2023, 08:22 AM

Time for some Swedish war history.

We’ve visited the Vasa museum in Stockholm.

Vasa was built around 1630 and sunk on its maiden voyage.

It is huge!!

It’s about 70 metres long and 50 metres high.

Thanks for posting these photos - it inspired me to look up the sinking of the Vasa. Interesting story!

Some modern Swedish history now.

Are you referring to the reflections in the lake ?

An interesting older house. Best avoided if the neighbor's kid has a BB gun or slingshot.
