One of my favorite quotes from the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy: “The table is set; the pieces are moving…”
Long years ago, Gandalf said it about the war to end all wars, but that’s how I feel right now about my 2-week vacation this coming September.
The plane tickets have been purchased and the hotels are secured. *sigh* I’ll be in Barcelona, Spain to celebrate my 50th birthday and flying to Istanbul, Turkey the next day!

And I won’t be going alone (another Gandalf quote!). Yes, I usually travel solo but this time a family friend/budding photographer is joining me for two weeks in two countries and I’m actually excited with the possibilities of having a like-minded companion along for the journey.
I can’t wait!
WONDERFUL Post! Your pics are awesome!
Thanks Dom, but these are not my pics. The image makers name is shown under each one if you click on the image, it will take you to their flickr pages.
