okay you have the watch position so the place is the **** Lookout

I cannot assist further, my brain is hurting, retiring to the bat cave, for a Bex and a dino nap.

There is a thread Cruising with a Service Dog, I’ll check but I think it is about the 60,000 mark at the moments, but is also part 2 so my guess is 99,999.

I wonder if we can keep this going long enough to reach that number.

Getting older slowly receives a personal escorted tour of the sites of Victoria BC including a pint at a local. Of course getting here is on you. And as a bonus you get the next photo

 

Oh wow I thought for sure it was NOT Nu uanu Pali😱 My pictures look so different😲

Villa Tugendhat, Brno, Czech Republic, 

 

Correct. Built in 1930s it is "Unescoed" for being a pioneer of the modernism movement. Sadly the couple who commissioned it lost their house to the Nazis but with the blessing of their daughter it is a museum of sorts. We obviously didn't get to visit inside as we found out too late about the wait time 😂 They call it the house of light because of it's natural utilisation of sunlight:

Pre COVID it was a ten month waiting list to tour the interior 😳

This Is on my bucket list and I will be making whatever arrangements I have to to get the tour. I followed the restoration on the web as it was happening. The whole thing is incredible.

I was pretty disappointed when I realised there was no way to get a tour.  The tours are small groups and don't run everyday limiting how many people can get in (They were COVID safe before COVID😆). Still never would have exepected such a long wait list. By the time I started researching it was already too late. Brno is still a great place to visit (and the only place in Czechia we had a meal with vegetables😂. They don't call it the land who forgot vegetables for nothing😜). Before we left we decided to go past Villa Tugendhat and see whatever we could see. Better than nothing I guess🤗.
