A segment from our 2004 trip to Sri Lanka, a night hike to the top of Adam's Peak (Sri Pada). Thousands make the pilgrimage to this sacred site each season and it lures the faithful from a myriad of religions - Buddhist, Muslims, Christians, and Hindus. By making the steep ascent at night (miles of steep stairs), one is rewarded with one of the most breath-taking sunrises imaginable.
The Queen Mary 2 squeaks under the Golden Gate Bridge after spending the previous night in San Francisco. This was her first visit to San Francisco, part of an around-the-world voyage. Queen Mary is the largest ocean liner in existence, and one of the largest passenger ships.
