Euro Trip Day 37: Auschwitz: A world I can only envision in black and white
**Disclaimer: As the post title should indicate, this is kind of a downer of a post. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Only for a bit, though — then it perks up towards the end.** Sunday July 11th, we got up early and got our bags packed, then took them to the train station and [...]
Euro Trip Day 33: Rugs with guns and trains with bunks
Wednesday, July 7th started somewhat busy as we went to run some errands and then head back to our hostel and proceed to conduct the now-usual jigsaw of trying to fit all of our stuff into our backpacks. We got packed up and went to the train station to get our tickets for the night [...]
Euro Trip Day 26: Last stamp day of the trip :-(
Today was our last stamp day of the trip, and I’m oddly sad about it. Honestly, I should have realized it’d be when we crossed into Hungary, but I just wasn’t thinking about it. What’s a stamp day? It’s any day I get a new stamp in my passport. Technically, this isn’t even a NEW [...]
Euro Trip Day 23: Sarajevo to Zagreb
This post is coming a bit late because it seems like our internet access always seems to die on us in the evening, which is when I’d prefer to be sitting around working on things like reservations for upcoming cities and blog posts and the like. In any case, most Zagreb museums are closed on [...]

Euro Trip Day 0: Waiting for our first train of many
Trip Day 0: Waiting for our first train of many, originally uploaded by Kari_Marie. My goal this trip is to post a picture a day, so that I’m forced to think and write about some of this as it’s happening, rather than waiting until I get home to look at my pictures and reflect. I [...]
Herbie goes to Sacramento
Y’all seen the Herbie movies? The REAL ones, not the cheezy knock-off from a few years back? I always loved those movies. I’ve seen this car on my way home from work a handful of times, but I’ve never been able to get a picture of it before. Today two fortunate events conspired to help [...]
I love Tower Bridge
(Pssst — go to the main page of my blog and check out my new header pics, then leave a comment here letting me know what you think!) :-) One of Sacramento’s more distinct landmarks is the lovely art deco Tower Bridge, which spans the Sacramento River and leads to the state Capitol building. While [...]

I think I’ve covered all the bases–correct me if I’m wrong
I was mulling over my love of transportation and transportation-related pictures (please read that in a Hank Hill voice, if you know what I’m talking about) and realized that I think I’ve pretty much covered all of the bases with regards to transportation. I mean, I have: . . . . . . . . [...]

My Rebel rebelled… but I still got some cool pics
This past Sunday morning, I got up before dawn, got into my car, and made the two-hour drive to San Francisco Airport to do something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time — take pictures of planes. Now, if you’ve been around this blog or my Flickr for any length of time, you [...]

Fire truck
Here’s one last one from Gladding, McBean. They used this fire truck to ferry people from the factory back to the tour meeting area. So neat.
