There's nothing like ambling through a market and being surrounded by bushels of exquisite flowers. Tulips, anyone?

No matter where we travel, Canada is always home. Happy Canada Day!

Just a dragon and her baby watching over the street.

Found this beauty while strolling the cobblestone alleys in Lübeck, Germany.

Lovely Lübeck as viewed from the tower at St. Peter church. On the right, you can see the Holstentor (Holsten Gate), built in 1484.

This is such a beautiful old town and if you love marzipan, it is the place to be. Niederegger was founded here in 1806.

This was a lovely find as we meandered through the streets of Lindau. Even though we haven't been to Newfoundland yet, it makes me think of Jellybean Row (Duckworth Road).

I usually have my eyes glued to the views outside the plane window and this is exactly why. How about you, do you like to see the world from above?

This is Greece

Ahhhh, can you picture yourself sitting on that dock right about now? Me, too.

This looks like a good documentary to watch. As more and more people are getting back into travel, this is a good opportunity to evaluate how we go about it and the impact we have.

We've seen signs in some places, like Oia, Santorini, asking tourists to please be respectful and mindful towards the community. In Croatia, they've had to place daily caps on the number of people visiting nature parks. Thailand has permanently closed Maya Bay in the Similan Islands due to the destruction caused my mass tourism. With the sheer number of people flocking to hotspots, this will only become more necessary.

Travel really opens up our world, and the answer isn't to stop travelling. But we need to be responsible and respectful -- towards the environment, the animals, and the people.

Anyone else love the views from an airplane? For us, travel starts the moment we are on the way to the airport.

We love flying and taking in the panorama for as long as we can.

This shot was taken on our last flight in 2019, en route from Germany.

Templo Romano de Évora, a significant archaeological site located in Évora, Portugal.

Just hanging around, watching the world go by.

If you make it to Bratislava, keep an eye open for these cool bronze sculptures in and around the Old Town. One of the most noted is 'Cumil' -- a 'man at work' peeking out from a manhole.

How did we miss ?!

The Prague Old Town Square...we'd love to be back there right now, enjoying a sweet beverage on a patio. You too?

A Pérola do Bolhão is a charming traditional grocery store located in downtown Porto.

Step inside and you'll find a well stocked array of local specialty cheeses, meats, teas, coffees, and treats.

This takes us back 😍

Stop for a minute and feel the warmth of the sun rays caressing your face. Exhale. Slow down and stay for a while. Oia is meant to be savoured.

The Berliner Dom is a beautifully imposing cathedral located on the banks of the Spree River. Quite a sight to behold, the views from the observation level are equally spectacular. After a climb of 270, you will be rewarded with 360° panoramic views of the city. The Hohenzollern Crypt, under renovation for the next three years, is a significant burial place in Europe.

The 500 Lohan Temple is a Taoist temple located in Tanjung Pinang on Bintan Island.

Located within the grounds and gardens are 500 life-sized arahat figures, each with its own distinctive expression.

The island boasts numerous resorts and is part of the Riau archipelago in Indonesia, and is only a short distance from Singapore.

What's your ideal view?

Beautiful mini roses in the beautiful city of Lübeck, Germany.

When you go for a stroll, do you stop to smell the roses?
