greetings Archie - and thank you very much for your unexpected comment for my "South America" cave shot .... indeed fascinating to be inside - and in our areas here anemones and starfish on the walls and those interesting shapes looking out .... hard to photograph though :-)))
wish you a great remaining Sunday,
Adele
Hi Archie, many thanks. The sad aspect is that we have quite a few uranium mines in the vicinity, a little further up is Husab, second richest deposit of the world owned by the Chinese, then there is Rossing (Rio Tinto), Laanger Heinrich and the French and a host of others . This one is a very low grade ore that is why they have to remove all the mountains and hills, there should have been a cut off point somewhere especially seeing that it is in a national park (but so is Husab), we have so many uranium mines, some of them dormant because of the low uranium price at the moment. That is really the only thing that could save this one or that there could be a glut of uranium. Wish you a good week, best regards,cathy
Hi Archie, this reminded me of the famous novel by J. Cary: "the Horse's Mouth", if you have time please read it. thanks for your upbeat commentary........ best from Canada janos
Thanks for your comments, Archie! If you have never been to Venice, you should got there. It is nice when you stay in one of the quarters (p.e. Dorsoduro) which is not so overcrowded with tourists. Have a nice day, Sabine
Thank you Archie, I've only seen the documentary about Woodstock, but it was an interesting visit there, The Museum takes you right back to those times, they sell all the old records and CDs, and of course many different types of souvenirs. The day I was there only the museum was open (daily), but there was no concert scheduled; but in summer they have an extensive schedule of performances.
Nevertheless, it was an interesting place to actually see!
thank you so much for all your latest comments, Archie .... I really appreciate them. Our visit to the pyramids was much too short (that is why I don't like guided tours, but safety commanded it). So we did not go on any camel or horse or buggy rides - all was available ... we always say "next time", but I am afraid this was a once in a lifetime experience !!
Wish you a great week - Spring already here so early with lots of blossoms, and I can just imagine your almond trees (was in California last year in Feb/March)
greetings, Adele
