Sights from around the world and around the corner. I've been away for a while, busy with lots of different things. Among them, the fact that I've "unretired": I'm back to office work. I don't know how this will work out, but since I was invited, I had to try. I stopped by to wish all of my blogger friends a Happy 2008! I hope I can post more frequently next year.
