that magical time of day
 |
| Tarifa (Cádiz - Andalucía), Spain |
I know I've posted a picture similar to this one earlier, but I couldn't resist! Here's another one of Tarifa, this time including its castle, with the silhouette of Morocco in the background. This is my absolute favorite time of day, when the light turns everything a golden color. Its as if time stops everything happening around you.

high tide or low tide?
 |
| Cabo Roche (Cádiz - Andalucía), Spain |
Continuing along the coastline beyond Roche, between Cabo Roche (Cape Roche) and Conil de la Frontera, is a wonderful area of coves tucked away among the cliffs. It's a nice way to spend the day. It is a good idea, however, to know when the high and low tides are, otherwise you may have a shorter day than you expected!

Jay Pritzker Pavilion
 |
| Chicago, Illinois - USA |
Architect Frank Gehry and his team designed the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in downtown Chicago's Millennium Park. It is considered one of the most state of the art outdoor music pavilions in the world with seating for as many as 11,000 people.
There is nothing more cool than to sit here and listen to free live music with Lake Michigan on one side of you and amazing architecture on the other!

Aqua

| Chicago, Illinois - USA |
This iconic skyscraper in downtown Chicago is named 'Aqua'. It was designed by architect Jeanne Gang and it was her first skyscraper project. The unique wave-like balconies jutting out of the façade and its close proximity to Lake Michigan influenced the name.

René Magritte in Chicago
 |
| Chicago, Illinois - USA |
The second largest museum in the United States, only after the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, The Art Institute of Chicago, as can be expected, offers top of the line exhibits. This time I got to see René Magritte, a Belgian surrealist artist.
