    Any of the flower pictures would look amazing as enlargements on a bathroom wall, or to brighten up any room. Your photos are really lovely. Also love the music of Eric Satie. Gorgeous.

    That looks really cool. We went down to the a local orchard walked around in a sunflower field last weekend. It was super hot. I get the masks though, my and his girlfriends family did a cruise to spain. He got lucky and did not get covid but his girlfriend did. She had to stay in Spain for another week. He had to come home because he was starting a new job as soon as he got back. Her mom stayed with her.

    Very nice! In August of 2019 my family and I went to London and had an excellent time! It was really hot and by the time we got to see the Tower of London, we were sort of done with paying for going into everything so we just walked around outside. I found a couple caches near the Themes while we visited and we took our best family photo there as well. We finished the day by taking a boat up to Greenwich and walking up the hill to the observatory, where I found the geocache that's my farthest east of the Prime Meridian - all the way around the planet to just an inch or so west of the Prime Meridian! (it was the Prime Meridian virtual) Thank you for sharing in your London adventure and I hope you were able to get the footage you needed to complete the video that I helped you with on the US side!

    • @GeoRick
      @GeoRick  2 года назад +1

      The Greenwich boat trip sounds great and a special geocache too. Thanks will put in on our list for another visit. Yes we got to the place so your footage is going to be great when I edit it in a few weeks time. We have so much footage to edit!

    • @GeoElmoGeocaching
      @GeoElmoGeocaching 2 года назад +1

      @@GeoRick when you take the boat to Greenwich, there's quite an uphill walk up to the observatory, so it's tough when it's hot. But it's a fun virtual because you place your feet on either side of the prime meridian. I laugh because the cache registers just west (I believe) of the PM so while it's my closest to the PM going west, it's my farthest going east. 🙂
