I hope you have been enjoying the pictures and film so far in this “Mystery Place Series.” Some of you guessed the mystery place already. Congratulations to Rob Whitaker, Sammy Robison and David Urry (His comment was adjusted slightly as I first met him in the mystery place many years ago..and he recognized the area immediately). They will all receive special treats from England. In the meantime, let’s enjoy a slide presentation. For those of you who haven’t guessed yet, the clues are more pronounced in this one.

There will be more pictures and film in the next article to enhance your virtual tour. Speaking of tour, the web site has been updated a little. Go to the ” Vision ” Tab at the very top of the page and read about the politician, who ran in the elections for president of the United States. He no longer is in the running, but his words still echo powerfully to those who have ears to hear. Stairway To Secrets was graced by one so willing to serve and so a personal letter from Mitt Romney was a great outcome.

As time goes on more updates on the site will be done as there are already submissions in queue. If you haven’t submitted anything for a spotlight, take another look and contribute something. The world is all ears. This is the age of communication, and we need to be more unified than ever. It begins with a thought; why not from you?

Don’t forget to comment on these articles as well as what you read in the main site. Is there a miracle you wish to share, or a vision? How about sharing a picture or photo? Have you read any good books lately or tried a fabulous recipe? Remember, if your submission is included, there is a free 3 day getaway gift certificate for you and your family to enjoy.

I hope you are enjoying this particular series. There will be some fun times ahead as we view more videos and photos, so please come back soon. Oh by the way, the mystery place is Vienna, Austria.

I have just a few minutes to take you on a quick market tour.  Again, there have been some great guesses re. the mystery place. Each article has revealed a clue and if you haven’t been following the articles start from “England” and catch up to this one. Let’s begin with some great market scenes. 

I hope you enjoyed the tour. The last video clip, as you can tell, was not edited for a little market spice and humour. There will be other photos and short films to look forward to bringing you closer to the mystery place. I have left you with some great clues in this one.

The next articles will focus on a little history, culture, and some interesting buildings. If you haven’t guessed the mystery place yet, give it a try. If this is your first article read, catch up on the previous articles starting from “England” and read the rest of the adventure articles to this current one.

There have been some good guesses as to where the mystery place might be. The answer will be revealed at the end of the month. For now let’s continue the journey with the rest of these pictures. In the previous article the theme was on travel or journey. Let’s have a look at a different theme. How about food?

If you are a newcomer read the previous articles starting from “England” to this current one so you can participate as well.

Another place exploring traditional food

There are also very fine restaurants and one happens to be very famous for this particular dessert which is sold all over the world.

One final photo for those ethnic tastebuds, and one that I could not resist taking:

The next batch of photos will center around the “Market Theme” There are videos to look forward to but these will be shown at  a later date.

Are you ready for some pictures? Are you ready for another clue? The 1st clue previously mentioned of the mystery place was somewhere across the English Channel.  Guesses have been made but the answer will not be revealed until the end of the month. Remember there will be English treats waiting in the wings.

Here are the first batch of photos. The next article will reveal more. The sooner you get it right, the better the treat!

Let’s begin with the journey

You have some good clues here. There will be more pictures next time. Each article will have a picture theme. This one focused on the journey.

If you haven’t been following  my trip to England articles read my journal entries starting from  “England” to this current one. This is a journey I enjoy sharing with you.

As Valentine’s Day is approaching, there is a special I included that ladies would love (including myself when I get back from England). You can find it under “Health Tip” (the tab at the top of this page). Once you open that page just select the Valentine Special link at the bottom of the page.  The price is low and the quality outstanding.

Adieu for now.

Here are some pictures for you to delight in. Let’s start at the terminal in the Salt Lake City airport, to a blizzard in Chicago where some flights were cancelled except mine. The plane received special attention of de-icing which caught my attention as I looked out of the window. What surprises would this storm bring? The thought intensified when the captain of the plane announced for passengers to prepare for a little turbulence.

The northern part of England provided me with its red carpet welcome of rain. It didn’t matter, however, as the views made up for it. Here is a glimpse of the old country and its cobbled streets. Throw in a castle and some barges and what do you have? Why Skipton, in Yorkshire of course!

A visit to the market is always a fun experience. You walk away satisfied even without buying anything!

This is going to be quite a tour from one old country to the next..which is your first clue as mentioned in the previous article. The next batch of photos will come from across the channel. Be prepared for a great surprise, just how I was at first.  Any guesses? The first one who gets this right will get an english treat upon my return.  Which country am I referring to? If this is too hard a guess, there will be some photos for you to browse over next time.

This is just a quick note to let you know I was thinking of you on this special day of celebration. I promised you in my previous article there would be some pictures of fabulous places during my visit here in England. I also have another surprise, a mystery place where I will be heading (which I didn’t even know about). Stay tuned for some photos of the beginning days of my trip to England, and a clue of the mystery place. Celebrating my birthday in the old country will be one to remember always. I will share the excitement with you soon.
