You are welcome, Mamie. I can't always find the photos, though. Luckily I labeled that one camel. Notice the two-handed death grip on the pommel. That camel was only 7 feet high when we were on the ground, but he became 12 high once we were up there.

Guesses for new set: 51. Romania 52. Sacher torte, have been there and went to Sacher Hotel to experience Sacher tortes. It was on a Danube River cruise, and I didn't really have anything planned, but another woman did, but didn't know how to get there. So I told her I am a bit of a navigation wizard, and if we could tag along on their itinerary, I could probably get us there on public transportation and back to the river boat. So I got us all bus and tram passes, and we went to the Sacher Hotel for Sacher tortes, AND got back safely to the boat, which included a final obscure walking pathway to the river. Image may be poor quality due to website limitation to 60 kb size Yikes, image came out huge, so I deleted it. Sorry, Mamie. It is a 2014 picture of Bigdog and me coming out of the Sacher Cafe in the Sacher Hotel in Vienna, and I have run out of time to fix it. 53. Nepal 54. rhea 55. Righteous Brothers - Bigdog just told me their names a couple days ago. 56. 80 57. lettuce 58. Celtic/Ireland 59. Bubba 60. Clear . . .
