We’ve eaten at this restaurant a couple of times during trips to Bonaire. We’d highly recommend it.
Private Dining Spot
The upper level is a great private spot to grab a meal at the Las Hijas Beach Club in Playa del Carmen.
Private Party
While in Mexico, we ate at this seaside restaurant three times. During one of those visits, we got a chance to sit out here in this private area. It was a great spot to watch the sunset from while enjoying a great meal.
Emeril's Bistro
I didn’t try any of the food or drinks at this spot, but the restaurant looks cool. This is located on the Carnival Mardi Gras.
Breakwater
This wonderful Art Deco restaurant is part of South Beach Miami. MJ and I had dinner near here and enjoyed a nice walk back to our hotel beyond party central. Of course, as we walked, I snapped a bunch of pictures
UFO Observation Deck
This space craft shaped observation deck and restaurant sit high above the bridge over the Danube River in Bratislava Slovakia.
UFO Observation Deck
This cool looking restaurant and observation deck was on the south side of the Danube River above the bridge in Bratislava, Slovakia. We didn’t go up there, but we should have…. Oh well, next trip.

Havana Bar
This bar isn’t in Cuba…. This bar and restaurant is in downtown Kralendijk Bonaire. They have a great menu and outside dinning area. MJ and I have had dinner here twice on two different trips to Bonaire, but we’ve never been there for the nightlife. Apparently, after dark it turns into a hopping night club and is open all night. I haven’t experienced that portion of their business. This is what the bar area looks like before the party starts.

Pripyat Restaurant
I loved the stained-glass windows in this abandoned restaurant along the river in Pripyat, Ukraine. Before the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, this must have been a great place to enjoy a meal.

Mechanical Wonder
During our trip to Mexico we stayed at Grand Palladium Resort north of Cancun…I’ve mentioned this before. Inside the resort, there are a number of restaurants, bars and stores all of which have a different theme/design. One of them is a Café and deli, which was designed as a urban contemporary look that included this giant floor to ceiling mechanical clock. This clock ran all kinds of pulleys and cables that helped other objects in the Café run/move. In fact, the mannequin on the bike in the left corner of this photo was run by the clock. His legs pumped the bike peddles that turned the wheels. I liked the clock and the entire Café.

Wine Bar
This is the wine bar and steak house on one of the Carnival Cruise ships. But I honestly, don’t remember which ship this is. How sad is that, when I can’t remember which ship this is? Anyone out there in the Internet world know?
Some of the spaces on these ships are so cool. The design, textures, colors and just how warm they feel is appealing to me. I can’t help but see the beauty in these spaces.

Calzone's
On my first night in San Francisco, I ate dinner outside at this restaurant. It was such a cool experience just watching the people and traffic pass by my seat. And the food was great as well. I liked this spot so much, that a couple of days later I went back to photograph the building after sunset.

Sangrias
During our last trip through Fort Lauderdale Florida, MJ and I had lunch at this beach side restaurant and bar. To my surprise, they had an huge neon Yuengling inside the place. So getting a Yuengling was tempting, but I went with this extra large drink instead.

El Patio Restaurant
Grand Concourse
This restaurant is located in the restored Pittsburgh and
Lake Erie Railroad Station at Station Square in Pittsburgh. I took this picture in July 2012, while
on a photo walk with Brad and Dave Truxell. We didn’t plan to enter this building and the guys didn’t
think they would let us in to take photos. I usually don’t let the unknown stop me, so we just walked
into the business. Not only did
they not stop us, they welcomed us to take as many photos as we wanted.
I posted a few pictures of this place in the past, but they have all been of the outside of the building. Why didn’t I share this picture earlier? I don’t know. I just kind of forgot about it. I hope you enjoy this picture. It doesn’t do justice to how amazing this building is on the inside. The old train station architecture is very cool.
