Rare jpalbny Posted November 20, 2022 #15126 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Here are a few aurora shots. It's after midnight here so time for bed soon. We were gettting set for our snowshoeing trek around 8:15 when the lights put in an appearance! We got some cell phone shots from the resort. The display seemed to be intensifying so we hurried to the viewpoint in the taiga forest. An occasional quick snapshot as we trekked. Of course they became much less intense once we got to the viewpoint. Still, Chris was happy to pose with them. We waited for a while but eventually came home and shed our heavy clothes. On cue, as we were walking back to our cabin, the display surged even stronger than before! What luck! So a very successful first day here in Saariselkä. Now, it's after midnight, so it's time to catch a few winks. Hopefully more sightings to follow! 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare drron29 Posted November 22, 2022 #15135 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license. The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer. The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled. Officer 2: Thank you, ma'am, one of my officers told me you didn't have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner. Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted November 22, 2022 #15136 Share Posted November 22, 2022 After our cruise ended in Piraeus last month we hired a guide to go to Delphi and Meteora. It was a wonderful two days, but the promised awe-inspiring sunset at Meteora was rather a bust. So glad to see that JP and Chris got the awe-inspiring Aurora they were seeking on their trip. Meanwhile, back a home this afternoon, we got a sunset that resembles a red-tinted Aurora: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted November 22, 2022 #15140 Share Posted November 22, 2022 I met a travel agent from Miami Beach who is pressuring me to take a trip to Mahé. Yup: she sells Seychelles by the sea shore! 🤣 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare drron29 Posted November 25, 2022 #15147 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I'm old enough to remember when cosmetic surgery was rarely discussed in mixed company. Nowadays, people often chat about Botox and don't raise an eyebrow 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowadays, people often chat about Botox and don't raise an eyebrow What amazes me is how different - and not in a good way - some people look when they have had surgery - Sylvester Stallone in his latest film for instance. I would be sueing for damages if it was me. As for the ghastly huge lips on some young girls in the UK now - yuk! If they must do it, they should at least save up to have it done subtly. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
