  3. Killarney National Park

    One of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Many people think of the western coast when they think of Ireland, rocky and deserted, but I think of Killarney, wooded and mossy with black lakes and stone bridges, and deserted abbeys.

    At 376 square miles the Salton Sea is the largest lake in California, and at an average of 51 feet, it is rather shallow. it is also, like nearby Death Valley, below sea level.

  7. Mono Lake State Reserve

    A massive saline lake in the sierras, Mono Lake has no outlet and is the natural collection point for all of the salts and minerals that wash down out of the mountains. This high mineral concentration has over the many years formed giant tufa, or calcium carbonate spires that jut up out of the lake like stalagmites.

  8. Stanley Park

    Just a short distance from Vancouver's downtown core is its magnificent Stanley Park. The urban park, consisting of 400+ hectares (1,000 acres), it is a natural paradise used for hiking, walking, dining, swimming, and photographing spectacular views of the city and its north shores.

    The Novodevichy Monastery was founded in 1524. Novodevichy translates as "new maiden", and over the centuries, this monastery was home to numerous royal women - many of whom were sequestered there against their wills.

  10. Lake Como

    Toward the end of summer 2007, the sun set over Lake Como, a little body of water on the border of Spring Lake and Lake Como adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean on the Jersey Shore. The water fowl are diverse and offer peaceful moments within a stones throw of the Atlantic Ocean.
