The Desert Hot Springs is pretty small, only 4 rooms, but it is the only hotel designed by John Lautner, the architect that designed the Elrod house. The hotel is a fantastic blend of indoor and outdoor space like all Lautner buildings and has become something of an interpretive Lautner experience.
Havasu Falls is a 100-foot tall waterfall in the Grand Canyon that is a desert oasis in every sense of the word. It is one of the most photographed waterfall in the world, and for good reason.
Sitting next to a guard rail on a street atop the hills, I snapped this shot of the valley.
The old British Library Reading Room is at the heart of the British Museum and the centrepiece of the redesigned and covered Great Court that was formally opened in 2000.
It's not an 'art gallery', but it is home to an amazing array of art from many cultures and eras. My personal favourite are the galleries containing the friezes and sculpture from the ancient world.
Beside a pool late in the afternoon on top of a mountain at a ski resort.
A car caught on fire on the side of the road, and this is what the inside looked like.

The Gasthaus Heiligenbrunnen is a hidden gem in the southern Black Forest not too far from the towns of Hinterzarten and Titisee.
It is located perfectly as a goal or starting point for a hike through the landscape.
The food is excellent with good sized portions for a very fair price.
