    Their town hall is powered by a windmill.

    Taipeh- that's Taiwan's capital. I could have chosen Taormina in Sicily but there were already so many As.

    Halifax, Nova Scotia Steeped in history and culture, life in Halifax revolves around the sea. But there’s so much more!

    From bustling city streets to leisurely strolls along the magnificent Halifax harbour, to exploring the historic Pier 21 or the Halifax Citadel Hill.

    Explore everything that Halifax and surrounding region has to offer with close proximity to other famous Nova Scotia destinations including; Peggy’s Cove, the Bay of Fundy, and Cape Breton Island.

    I haven't been to Halifax in 49 years so it has changed a lot. I have a lot of fond
    memories from that area.

    Key West Florida is an island in the Straits of Florida on the North American continent at the southernmost tip of the Florida Keys.

    In Pre-Columbian times Key West was inhabited by the Calusa people. The first European to visit was Juan Ponce de León in 1521. As Florida became a Spanish colony, a fishing and salvage village with a small garrison was established here.

    During World War 2 my mother, a Navy WAVE, was stationed here at The Naval Air Station, while my father was stationed at NAS Pensacola.

    Tadcaster in Yorkshire , England is one of my husband's favorite places. Home to three breweries, Tower Brewery (Coors, formerly Bass), John Smith's and Samuel Smith's Old Brewery, which is also the oldest brewery in Yorkshire and the only remaining independent brewery in Tadcaster. The dray horses from Sam Smiths are a familiar sight around the town.
