They knew who they were making it for Saw this every day on the way into Amsterdam... Cool building that looked like it was set up with beach chairs when I was there. Next trip! http://www.fineartofliving.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Amsterdam-Aussicht-auf-NEMO_Quelle-Science-Center-NEMO.jpg

Nemo is great. Not as tram close as some places, but well worth the short walk.

It's on the canal bus route! Very relaxing way to go.

I'm all about the trams. I could ride those things all day.

They're great... transport is so well organized in Holland, especially for bikes!

I went to San Francisco last year and saw a lot of people riding bikes. That's a crazy workout. Amsterdam seems like a bike paradise. Men don't get it, but sometimes flatter is better.

Downhill is easy. Try riding up that street. I'd go from the Palace of Fine Arts to Fort Point. That's more my speed.

Well you certainly can't get up much speed going up that hill. Ft. Point is a good place to watch surfers, if you've ever gone to the Bay Model exhibition, there's a humongous trench under the Golden Gate Bridge. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=bay+model+golden+gate+bridge&view=detailv2&id=99BA52C2734CCA8686F655C5677E9A54D863A6A8&selectedindex=4&ccid=if7dLlhH&simid=608047664883240002&thid=OIP.M89fedd2e584769e26f86b1fd66e8ea83o0&first=1

Speaking of downhill, here's a Baha'i temple. Haifa, Israel (HD version)

I don't know anything about the Baha'i religion, but they sure make nice temples.

^ That is most Beautiful! Love flying over England, the beautiful green fields and the villages, with their buntings strung colorfully over the streets, and flowers everywhere.. In parks, in gardens and window boxes! . Also the yellow fields when the rape is in bloom! http://www.ashtonunderhill.org.uk/images/Aerial-view-1-for-web.jpg https://aglobalgarnish.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/imgp24471.jpg http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/04/29/article-1381866-0BD497E700000578-857_634x396.jpg Its most difficult to find photos with this new copyright issue !

This Should fit with a BEAUTIFUL WORLD theme... Glade jul (Happy Christmas) by Viggo Johansen (1891)

Christmas is a beautiful time of the year. One of my favorite things about Christians is how nice they are to people during Christmas, like Thai people all year.

We could always count on Mr. Rockwell for some beautifully spirited paintings.

True Christians are nice to people all year long as well. They just get more media attention at Christmas is all. What bothers me are the one's who project self oriented survivalism in the name of Goodness. The difference between them and the true ones is mentioned in the New Testament... Thee actual originals taught love and peace and understanding through higher and objective education. These ultraconservative bible thumpers are actually apostate(fallen Christians) and their self righteous judgemental attitudes only make true worshippers look bad and invite bad feelings toward Christians. They were pointed out in Timothy... 1 Timothy 1:6 4Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: [so do]. 5Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned: 6From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 7Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. 8But we know that the law [is] good, if a man use it lawfully; _________________

Unfortunately, I've only been to Bangkok and Laem Chabang. Next time, I need to go up to Chiang Mai or down to one of the southern islands. I recommend Bangkok wholeheartedly, though. If you want friendly people, a lot of history and great food, they have it.
