Time To Rest


All good days must come to an end, and when we visited the places we planned to visit on our first day (Carson City and Virginia City), it was time for a rest before dinner time. We made reservations at Grand Sierra Resort for the night.





I was pleasantly surprised by my view from up there. I've never seen Reno this way and next time I want to explore what this city has got to offer for nature lovers.




From our 14th floor room, I was able to enjoy the view from up there. When I took this shot, I did not see the planes. This must be where the Reno Airport is located. What I enjoy with the view is the hills in the distance. I was fortunate that the photos turned out well after shooting this through the window glass.

I love Reno - small yet enjoyable and very close to Lake Tahoe too. We visited Reno when our little girl was just 8 months old :)

The Cretan dance has different steps from hasaposerviko and sirtaki (the dances from the movie My big, fat, Greek wedding).

I love taking photos randomly and then putting them up on the computer and finding things in the photos that I hadn't noticed when I was taking them. Thanks for sharing!
