8. San Diego Zoo – San Diego, CA

Very lovely zoo and all the hype about it is true.  The flamingo pond and giant pandas were a few of my favorite things there.

Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by...grab a beverage and stay awhile! My name is Carol and I'm a middle-aged travel addict. I was bitten by the travel bug when I was quite young but after receiving the book "1,000 Places to See Before You Die", I was inspired to create my own list of unique and unforgettable places; hopefully reaching a thousand before my time on this planet is through. Hardly ever without my camera in tow, I hope to connect the traveler, or simply dreamers of travel, to each of the places I visit through beautiful photography and destination review. Join my adventure as I work my way towards "A Thousand Places"....Read more ...

Woke up at 4:00am to make the pilgrimage up Cadill Woke up at 4:00am to make the pilgrimage up Cadillac Mountain along with about 500 or more of our closest friends to claim our spot on a rocky knob, wrapped up in a blanket, with a cup of hot coffee to watch the first glimpse of sunrise in the US.  What struck me most was the applause when the sun finally peeked over the horizon, concert like, from everyone there for a heavenly event that happens every day.  But we clapped along with them because it was simply spectacular and we felt privileged to be there to witness it. #travelphotography #travelphotographer #traveladdiction #seetheusa #popphoto  #maine #mainephotography #instagram #instagood #unitedstatesofamerica #instacolor #roadtrip #roadtripping  #getoutthere #enjoylife #sunrisephotography #sunrise_and_sunsets #cadillacmountainsunrise #barharbormaine #acadianationalpark
