Travel Meme Part II

I've finished the travel meme and updated the open questions. More guessery
behind this fake lj cut. :-)

Photo Travel Meme

This was so much fun!  I think we should do more of these memes!!  It took me a bit longer to get this together than I anticipated; most of the photos are scanned from 35mm, with only a few digital pictures.  One of the photos was actually taken by my grandfather 5 years before I was born!!

The Travel Meme (updated)

I think I'll have to do this in several parts, but at least it got me started. Thanks to byslantedlight for suggesting it!

The Photo Meme Thingy...

What a great idea!

I have to confess that not all of these photos were taken by myself. Some of them are places I visited in the pre-digital camera days, and to root out the photos which were taken at the time would mean several hours of searching through boxes of prints or slides, so instead I've used Google Images and such like...

Here we go... )

This has been great fun, and all these photos have brought back some very happy memories!

I'm looking forward to seeing everybody else's posts!

There is not much diversity, as I like to revisit the places where I've felt comfortable.

Photo Meme suggestion...?

I know I've been awol lately, even though I've taken pics I don't seem to have managed to post any, and I will, but in the meantime I saw this on someone's Flickr page, and thought it might be quite a fun idea for Scene_again - photo memes? And they rather fit with the raison d'etre of Scene_again too - the same views/different times/places, but in this case the same questions/different places/people!

I quite liked this Travel Meme over at Flickr, and thought that with a few adaptations it might be fun - does anyone fancy the idea? Rather than just posting the answers, we'd post photos as answers (with explanations if we wanted to)... (I'd've done an example, but I'm at work, so I'll have to wait until I get back to my own computer before I can try it myself!)

Photo Travel Meme
1. What country do you live in?
2. What was the last country you visited other than your own? (Or place, if you've not been to another country!)
3. What is your favorite kind of trip?
4. What place would/do you go back to again and again?
5. What is the most atmospheric place you've visited?
6. What is the most peaceful place you've visited?
7. What is the farthest north you've ever been?
8. What is the farthest south you've ever been?
9. What is the largest city you have visited?
10. What is the most beautiful place you've visited?
11. What destination would you recommend to a friend?
12. If you had to move and live somewhere you've visited, where would it be?

Does anyone else fancy it? It might take a while to organise/post, so there's no rush... or should we have a deadline? Oh, does anyone fancy a different weekly meme along specific themes? Mods, is it okay if I suggest that?!
