The water itself appears on Earth in many interesting shapes: geysers, springs, swift streams, waterfalls, glaciers and more.

The subject is wide so I divided it into three separated articles: geyser and hot springs, waterfalls and streams, the glacier.

Photography is steadily rising in popularity as a chosen hobby for many people as it is fun, exciting and can be learned with little effort, but making the decision to go professional with a photo studio et all calls for some big-time thinking. If you are like other amateur photographers who go to a local photo studio to get your negatives developed or have a digital camera and only visit the studio in the neighborhood when you have decided on the best ones worthy of printing, or even if you send the photos online to a web studio service for sending you the positives, you may have often wondered what it would be like to have a photo studio of your own.

Boasting the second largest population of any other city in Spain, Barcelona is certainly not an exemplary city when it comes to reducing environmental impact. However, Barcelona does have a number of programs already in place and others that are on the way which aim to reduce the amount of pollution for which this popular tourist destination is responsible.

Another more controversial effort that is being made is with their efforts to become a more bike-friendly city.

I have driven from Arequipa to Cotahuasi many times and have been interested in some of the side roads that we pass. One of them has a sign that says it goes to Cabanaconde, on the rim of the Colca Canyon. Another one goes in the direction of Colca Canyon around the backside of Nevado Coropuna. I have always wondered if it is possible to drive directly to Colca Canyon from Cotahuasi, where I live, rather than going all the way around through Arequipa, which is the normal way. I have a map that shows a road there, but it also shows roads in my area that I know do not exist.

When we arrive in Paris my language gene is activated and I function pretty well even with my college French. The old notion of rude Parisians unwilling to cope with those who lack the French tongue is long gone. English is now widely spoken and younger Parisians especially enjoy sharing our idioms and cliches. Gerry and I usually stay in a small boutique hotel on the Ile St Louis, just a few steps over a small bridge behind Notre Dame. The Ile is a neighborly oasis in the heart of Paris. One feels at home. The main drag, Rue St Louis en L'Ile, has small art and antique shops, bistros, elaborately stocked gourmet shops and perhaps the best purveyors of ice cream ever! Of course, Notre Dame with its flying buttresses and gargoyles beckons nearby.
