Thanks - I had been wondering what the views would be like. Now I know. (I'm far too mean to pay for such things myself!)

Unbelievable technology to maintain a ski resort in the desert. I believe the world's largest indoor ski resort just opened last summer which is the Wanda Indoor Ski and Winter Sports Resort in Harbin China.

I like this memorial, especially at night time, when the bronze figure of Jefferson really stands out against the light colored dome. Thanks, Ottoman!

We visit the Mall of the Emirates, one of the first mega-shopping malls built in Dubai and home of the world-famous indoor skiing venue, Ski Dubai.

DrFumblefinger shares one of the most interesting works of public art he's ever seen, the Fountains in the monstrous and fascinating Dubai Mall

The highlight of DrFumblefinger's stop in Dubai was a visit to the world's tallest building, the beautiful Burj Khalifa.

DrFumblefinger visits the Dubai Mall, the largest and likely one of the most opulent in the world. Besides over a thousand retail shops and over 100 restaurants, it features a massive aquarium, full size hockey rink and large cinema complex.

  The Mall of America, Minneapolis, Minnesota.  As you can see in this photo, the Mall of America (which opened in 1992) has something for everybody.  Activities include (just to mention a few) an amusement park (Nickleodeon...

  The West Edmonton Mall , located in Edmonton, Alberta, is   regarded as   the largest shopping mall   in North America.  It   covers a gross area of about 490,000 m 2 (121 acres).  There are over 800 stores...

Ottoman thought that his visit to Southdale Center would be just like any other mall he's visited. He was wrong.

If you ever visit Washington, D.C., make sure to visit this beautiful memorial dedicated to Thomas Jefferson, a complex 18th century man with a wide ranging impact on the very makeup of America itself.

Discovering these presidential statues made an ordinary trip to a shopping center extraordinary.

DrFumblefinger visits the District of Columbia War Memorial. It's located between the Reflecting Pool and Tidal Basin, close to the Martin Luther King Memorial.

Peter Phillips, the Queen's grandson, helped organize a Patron's Lunch street party at The Mall in St James’s Park ,London on Sunday June 12th for the the Queen's 90th birthday celebrations.

Samantha shares some of the highlights of the Hyatt Place in Boulder, Colorado.

During a weekend staycation, Samantha and her husband and I had a great time exploring the Pearl Street Mall while eating, shopping and being entertained by the street performers.

I lived and worked in in Boulder for a few years and you really captured the spirit of the Mall.

A nice post that brings back good memories. We visited Boulder often when my son was a graduate student at UC Boulder, and Pearl Street was always on our list of places to visit and go for dinner.

Thank you for your comments and photos, Rod. Much appreciated! Hope you are enjoying your retirement.

Thank you for the interesting article on St. James's Park, London. I agree that it can be crowded at times, although these days it is a pleasure to see plenty of people together without masks. I attach a picture of spring flowers and the lake. Until recently, the Royal College of Pathologists' office building was overlooking the Mall (it has since moved), and in 2011 Fellows were able to watch the Royal Wedding procession from the balcony. Just nearby is an unusual memorial to Giro (A...
