Autumn Travel and Ship Spotting

 Autumn travel with my handy Sony Rx100 m2 and here is a ship to start things off...

...the one and only river cruise liner MV Mikhail Tanich passing me by on the Upper Volga at Kimry, Russia.

Actually one of my bucket-list to do things before expire, as yet unchecked, is to go on a long cruise down the Russian rivers - from the Northern seas to the South and back.









Bonus - some views from Kimry in September 2021 after the jump.

Japanese Garden in Moscow

Japanese Garden in Moscow in Autumn - September 2021.

 

Here is a Japanese styled garden in late September, the famous Japan Garden at the Moscow Botanical Gardens in Moscow which is closing soon for the winter so yesterday I dropped by and took some quick pictures.

 

And here is a look inside that Japanese themed structure.




The dumb Google blogger uploader again reversed the pictures which were in sequence but I have neither strength no desire to re-arrange them properly.

Truly, everything Google touches turns to stupid, not forgetting its fake search engine only good for throwing up low quality ads.


But back to the views of the garden which is rather more pleasant than discussing the giant *whatever* of Google in all its iterations, including Youtube, of course.






The trees with red leaves are actually proper Japan sakuras.










Some of the Sakuras were planted by various Japan prime ministers as was the one below for example.
