Americas and Greenland Galleries

Cuba, July-August 1987 : These are from scanned film negatives taken with a point-and-shoot (or maybe a Ricoh KR5). Three weeks, including Havana, Varadero and then a drive to Trinidad and back to Havana. Lots has changed since then, and nothing has changed.

Greenland, July 2005 : Solo trip. NYC-Copenhagen-Ilulissat for over a week, then by boat to Aasiaat, Sisimiut, Nuuk, then plane to Narsarsuaq and return boat to Qaqortoq. Absolutely mindblowing.

USA Southwest, August 2005 : Travel by car to Death Valley, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Canyonlands, Monument Valley, and south and north rims of the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is always impressive, but I had never seen anything like Bryce in my travels, and Canyonlands (Island in the Sky area) is otherworldly.

Belize and Tikal, November 2006 : Two nights in Tikal, Guatemala and four in Belize just before Thanksgiving. Time was short, but I was able to see the annual celebration of the Garifuna people, do my first caving trip and also see a couple of Mayan sights.

Cuba, December 2006-January 2007 : K and I spent ten or twelve days in Havana, Trinidad and Vin~ales, with a quick stop in Sancti Spiritus. The country is beautiful. The people are waiting.

Chichen Itza and Uxmal, Yucatan, Mexico, January 2007 : K and I had only a short time in Yucatan, but we saw a fair amount. The sights are awesome, and much less crowded than we had expected.

USA Eastern Sierra Nevada, August 2007 : K and I spent a night on Cape Cod before flying to Las Vegas. From there we began our drive west across Death Valley, then north on Highway 395 to Lee Vining, and then across Yosemite NP to San Francisco. It must be one of the most spectacular drives in the USA, and the few days we took to do it are probably a minimum.
