Okay, so here's the thing. Every year since 2006 I have taken my one annual holiday in the good ole' US of A, visiting dear friends of mine (yes, that's an antiquated term, but 'second family' sounds too suspect). Every year I want to take lots of pictures and document things really well. Every year, thus far, I have failed to do so.
So, this year I decided I was actually going to do it. The problem is, I'm not used to being a photographer, and so there have been instances where I should have taken pictures and completely forgot. Therefore, my photographic record of my trip thus far is rather full of odd gaps.
However, in the interests of fairness, and because I promised myself I would do this, here is my first batch of pictures. I can't entirely remember the significance of all of them, and there are a lot more landscapes than people, but its what I have for now.
Thanks for reading!
