On Travels and Photos

About this blog . . .

I set a goal in October 2014 to finish exploring all 50 States before my birthday in September 2015. I've traveled some of the states before I came to the US as an immigrant, and I want to continue doing it. I am very grateful to have my dream job as a Flight Attendant, and more than grateful to enjoy the travel benefits in pursuing my passion to travel.

Taking photos is a crucial part of my travels. Images are memories that last. They bring us back to places and experiences we want to remember. I will be sharing few favorite photos, and few good stuff to reconnect with them.

Thank you, to all of you who were with me on my travels.


Join me on my wonderful journey . . . . .

Lighthouse in Portland, Maine


 

I have always been fascinated with lighthouses. Hence, I have a goal to visit as many lighthouses as I can. I wanted to have a special birthday trip in 2014, and I chose to visit Portland to experience my first lighthouse in the U.S.

 

Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth is the oldest lighthouse in Maine. It is iconic and the most photographic in New England. According to the record, it was first lighted in January 1791. 

 

A trolley tour brought me to explore the beautiful city and waterways. I had a chance to visit the Portland Museum of Art.  The pieces of art and history are very impressive. 

 

Just because lobster is a big thing in Maine; I had to try it myself. So I had dinner at Bay View restaurant and ordered a lobster soup, which I thought was great. 

 

Maine has more than 60 lighthouses on the coastline. I know for sure that I would explore some of them in the future. 

 

Some trips are not perfect, and this one was not. It was unfortunate that I lost my favorite necklace that has my name on it. It was precious to me, and I felt sad losing it. However, I always believe that material things are replaceable and good memories are not.
