The memorial stupa at the killing fields outside of Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

The killing fields are now so calm and lush that a colony of orange butterflies has taken up residence.

These pits are what's left after the bodies of Pol Pot's victims were excavated.

This is the memorial stupa at the most famous of the Cambodian killing fields. It is full of the skulls of the victims.

A detail from the large and ornately carved front doors of St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersberg.

Another spot along the zig-zaggy part of Highway 1, near Bodega Bay.

A small private chapel in the Novodevichy Monastery, which is also very pretty in the spring.

Driving along Highway One (I think not too far from Bodega Bay), we stopped to admire the coastline. It was wicked windy.
