Re: A visit to Waterton National Park
I love the pictures, Roderick. Part of what makes Waterton so special are its many wild animals. Almost like going on safari in America! I'm especially fond of the little bear. He looks so very lost without his mother. Hope you didn't get between her and the little one! And thanks for your first contribution to Travelgumbo!

Re: Gallery: Hapuna Beach Prince Resort, Hawaii
Some resorts have a rule that the tree line is the maximum building height. Blends in with the local landscape much better. Looks like this hotel was built to fit the local landscape. With the gardens it looks wonderful.

I really enjoyed visiting the whole area around Viterbo. It is a really laid back place. Not like Rome, Florence or other high traffic places in Italy

Re: Prince of Wales Hotel, Waterton National Park, Alberta
Thank you for this post, which reminded me of a night's stay at the Prince of Wales Hotel about 10 years ago. Many upmarket hotels look almost identical, but this one is definitely not. I attach a (rather dark) picture of the lobby, plus one of the spectacular view of Waterton Lake from the hotel, looking South towards the USA.
