The Galapagos Islands are a wonderful place to see birds and seals up close and personal and I have a wonderful collection of colorful bird pictures that I have in mats or mounted in greeting cards.
I had the opportunity to visit Spitsbergen in the Svalbard Archipelago north of Norway and only 500 miles from the North Pole. We saw many polar bears and walrus ...and icebergs, as well as some beautiful artctic birds.
Tanzania is an awesome place to visit, and I saw beautiful animals and birds from the safari vehicle.
