Damn that's beautiful! I have to visit sometime.

 

I love how Europe holds on to their old buildings, much unlike the US that just tears down the old to put up the new.

I was born and raised in Newark, New York. But, since I couldn't find any pictures of Newark, here's a picture of Rochester, NY, which is 30 miles west of Newark. I usually tell people I'm from there anyway. I spent enough time (and lived there too for a while) to claim being from there.

Nice pics Fridge. Edinburgh was my parents favorite getaway when they were stationed at Chicksands (Bedfordshire) w/ the USAF.

 

I'll be sure to send him the link so he can appreciate them.
