Whatever you call it Maggie approved.

 

The view from

Gods Window

over the

Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve

South Africa

This window just had to be photographed.

It is the view out Buckland’s BnB, about a five-minute drive

from the Hobbit Movie Set near Matamata,

New Zealand

When booking our Rocky Mountaineer options…

…we decided to pay the extra for the Gold Leaf experience…

…as carriages with windows in the roof were

all that we had ever seen advertised.

 

The less expensive, Silver Leaf Carriages have a restricted view…

…with windows only in the sides of the carriage

and meals are eaten in your seat.

Gold Leaf guests have a downstairs dining room.

The above image shows one Gold Leaf Carriage

on the extreme right.

The lower row of windows is in the dining area.

The front 5 or 6 cars are Silver Leaf Carriages.

The colour is pink.

 

A green hedge from

York,

U. K.

 

Your tall white tree appears similar to a poplar tree

which is deciduous and the reason for including

this tree (name unknown) in its winter coat.

 

Not certain that your flowers are rhododendrons, Cee,

however, I think they are.

These rhododendrons were captured in the

Hamilton Gardens

New Zealand.

A Rope Fence…

…designed to keep tourists off the grass.

Skagway

Alaska

 

An educated guess tells me this fence

is in the vicinity of 40-50 years old.

 

A temporary fence to contain two young pups

after their trip to the vet. 

Maggie was quite disgusted at being

contained as well.

An automatically opening/closing gateway

in Hamilton Gardens

New Zealand

 

 

Strainer posts support the fence tension

and often a gate as well.

A fence I grew used to seeing.

 

Fences I am not…

…keen on being surrounded by.

At 0500 on our last morning in Africa (2013)

the noise outside our accommodation

was loud enough to wake me.

Imagine my surprise to see this elephant

being kept at bay by this fence.
