On the road with Airstream

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com I think the classic Airstream camper sort of looks like a toaster on wheels. I wonder, does it pop you out of bed in the morning automatically, three shades tanner? Also, if you are traveling on the same road with one, be prepared to be periodically blinded by the sun glinting off its aluminum exterior – very distracting. I’m surprised these things are allowed on the road this...

Just call me “The Cougar Whisperer”

Just call me “The Cougar Whisperer”

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com While touring the Naples Zoo in Southwest Florida last week, we came upon an enclosure full of cougars. No, not the Courtney Cox variety! These are the type found in the wilds of the western United States. Other words for cougar are panther, mountain lion, even puma – all are part of the same species of big cats. I remember reading a few years back about genetic defects...

Approaching the Sunshine Skyway, St. Petersburg, Florida

Approaching the Sunshine Skyway,  St. Petersburg, Florida

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com Looks like the sails of a tall ship in the distance; when will it set sail? My obsession with the Sunshine Skyway continues. If I can find a place to pull over and shoot, I do. Otherwise I just keep my eyes on the road, point the lens in the general direction and pray Not bad, huh? Have a happy and productive Friday, everyone!   Subscriptions to My...

Oh, give me a home… at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Oh, give me a home… at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com While walking the path in the Pangani Forest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we are admonished to beware of the dangerous, marauding buffalo! I wonder how often a stampede actually occurs there? And come to think of it… have I ever actually SEEN a buffalo in Disney’s Animal Kingdom? Hmmm, I don’t think I remember seeing one… anyone? Have you been to Disney’s Animal Kingdom? Do you remember seeing...

Lovely, now where’s my pot of gold? ;)

Lovely, now where’s my pot of gold?  ;)

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com I was driving through a sudden shower, on my way over the causeway to a birthday dinner celebration for my friend Cheryl, when I happened to glance to my left and saw this rainbow hanging out near Fort Myers Beach. I pulled over at the first opportunity. If you look closely, you can see that it’s actually a double, which had started to fade by time I found...

Into the belly of the beast at the Naples Zoo, Southwest Florida

Into the belly of the beast at the Naples Zoo, Southwest Florida

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com I recently had the privilege of touring the Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens here in Southwest Florida. OK, “privilege” is stretching it a bit – it was REALLY hot and the animals were mostly sleeping, so not so much in the excitement department. But the botanical gardens were beautiful, and we know that if we go back in, say, December, we’ll have better luck with the animals being...

When critters attack!  Part 2

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com It’s a a day just like any other day in the beautiful German alps. A gentle breeze sets the pines a-whispering amongst themselves. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and a single, blue passenger car serenely makes its way along the alpine train tracks, little suspecting what insidious dangers lurk ahead… What a pretty and quaint train station! OK, so the dead truck isn’t very attractive…...

Sky travel at EPCOT

Sky travel at EPCOT

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com You can get into EPCOT without ever having to set foot in the park. All you have to do is hop aboard the Walt Disney World monorail. It dips into the park before pulling into the station outside the gates. Depending upon where you are in the park at the time, it is possible that the monorail train will go softly whooshing right over your head – photo...
