Travel Theme - Feet

This week's theme is FEET.

November 1988 - Cartagena Colombia

We took this photo years ago while visiting Cartagena in Columbia, South America. 

It is a giant bronze casting of a pair of old boots behind the Fort of San Felipe. The sculpture memorialized a poet's love of his old, comfortable and well-worn pair of shoes.

I'm playing along with Where's my Backpack travel theme

Saturday Snaps - Rome, Italy

I just came across this photo we took Rome and think it is just a beautiful sight. It is an apartment building across from the Palatine.
The Palatine Hill is the centermost of the Seven Hills of Rome and is one of the most ancient parts of the city. It stands 40 metres above the Forum , looking down upon it on one side, and upon the Circus Maximus on the other.

Saturday Shoes - Yaroslavl, Russia

Taken at the market in Yaroslavl, Russia.

Here is a blog looking for your shoe photos  - Since October is breast cancer awareness month, Brassy Apple is giving YOU, her readers, a special opportunity to "take a stand" against cancer (all types). When we take a stand - why not do it in our favorite pair of shoes!

Saturday Sightseeing

We "happened" upon Montezuma in Arizona on one of our first trips there. We were staying two weeks in Sedona and took many exploring day trips. This was our first introduction to these tribes. They were the Sinaquas, an ancient Indian tribe who built the cliff dwellings about 700 years ago in the early 1300s. For unknown reasons, the Sinaqua abandoned their homes in this Verde Valley Arizona area in the 1400s. Perhaps they had over extended agricultural pressure on the land. Or perhaps there was a lengthy drought or they could have been eliminated through conflict with the Yavapai Indians that still exist today. If there were any Sinaqua survivors, they were likely absorbed into other Indian tribes to the north. 


It is considered to be one of the most preserved ancient cliff dwellings in America.


What astonishes me is that we were completely unaware of this monumental dwelling!
However, since then, we have discovered many more of these wondrous sights.

Saturday's Shoes - Wedding

Check out the groom's shoes from a wedding I recently attended.

Oh and the bride is wearing running shoes!

 My foot as we're waiting for the service to begin - don't know the last time I wore stockings and heels!

Austrian Airlines flight attendants have the oddest uniform in my humble opinion. I mean, who wants to wear red tights with red shoes??
