Passing Scenery


One of the shots I took while on the road on our second day. I particularly love this sight even if it's a little blurry (shooting at 65 mph) because I thought this type of scenery that I only saw on calendars before are not available in my state. I was so wrong!


Zooming on the mountains. This road trip has opened my eyes to the fact that I do love mountains. I love them as much as I love the ocean. And if asked to choose whether I prefer to live on the coast or on the mountain top, I would take a very long time to answer :)

A restaurant facade? Really? That was on your mind dear readers wasn't it? Did you think I was bored on the road so I snapped everything that was in sight? Well, you are partly correct. Not the bored part. I took a shot at everything that interested me. And food interested me a lot. And it was serendipitous in a way because my husband and I were eager to sample Basque cuisine for a long time and seeing this on the way has somehow made us happy :) We did not stop for a bite, we were on running on tight schedule.

  5. The mountain shots are very attractive. It is difficult to show mountains that look very impressive. You managed to capture their beauty. Fine drive by shooting.

  22. Ahah! Mroy! The mountains are impressive. The restaurant is of Basque kitchen, which means that surely they will serve a very good kitchen. In the Basque Country, in Spain, are some the best Spanish cooks and of the world!
