At one time, not to long ago, we had India on our list of must visit countries. That was before the recents attacks on women there, including a recent incident involving a Swiss tourist and her husband. It’s to bad but we’re just not interested in visiting a country that has serious rape issues,

Finally getting some time to go over my photos from our trip to Las Vegas in January and post some of them to my Flickr account. Most of the photos I took are from our walks along the strip and were shot either with a Fuji X100 or my iPhone 5. Still need to
