AUSTRIA/SWITZERLAND PHOTOS!

AUSTRIA | Sunday, 22 April 2007 | Views [1239] | Comments [2]

I just got back this evening from my excursion to Austria and Switzerland. I could sit here and write an extensive entry about my experiences but I'll just let my photos do the talking .... for now. All of these places were just beyond belief. I wish that you all could have been there with me as I took these pictures. You see, it wasn't just the sights that made this trip so unforgettable. Here's only one example of what I mean: the smell of lilacs in Salzburg and Vienna's gardens was so sweet it was like candy to my nose. I only hope that my pictures can do a little justice to what I actually experienced first-hand. When you look at them, though, just try and picture yourself in those settings. Think of those smells ... of the sounds of birds chirpping ... of the utter brilliance of seeing the sun beaming down atop the snow-capped peaks of the Alps. I thank God that he brought me to see such a beautiful part of creation. Quite simpy, one can not be IN these pictures ... be in the MIDST of such perfection.... and say there isn't a loving Creator behind it all. I had such joy taking these photos, and I hope that you also receive the same joy from viewing them! Oh yeah, you can see them all under "Austria/Switzerland" in my Photo Gallery on the right column of my website's homepage. God Bless! Philippians 1:3, Craig

Hi Craiger!
Oh my, I couldn't wait to see your photos and now that I've seen all 1007 of them, I can get such a great sense of the beauty and majesty of all that your senses took in on your Austrian/Switzerland journey!! You've got everything on your set of beautiful photos....the delectable pastries, the awesome mountains, the beautiful flowers, the gracious people who crossed your path, the serene lakes and charming architecture....and even CAMELS!?? Stumbling onto that parade in Zurich was an adventure just in itself! When you've had a chance to catch your breath, fill us in on some of your insights, impressions and memories. To me, there is nothing quite like the majesty of the mountains to shout to us of God's greatness and love. Thank you for sharing this wonderful glimpse into your ongoing story.
Love you hugely!
Mom
