Hello Barbara. Thank you for this beautiful album with pictures of a city where I have lived during ten years. There are very beautiful pictures in open sea that you/they remind me my days of sailing that were other ten years. I always admire all the sports of the sea. The man always looked for the domain of the sea, but it is necessary to respect it a lot, because the sea can be very beautiful and welcoming, but there are moments in that he/she becomes terrible. In three occasions I suffered tropical hurricanes with waves of but of twenty meters. The sea is poetry and mystery. The man's continuous fight to conquer it and an adventure that never ends up. Thank you to share so beautiful pictures. Jesus from Castro Urdiales, Spain

Barbara, thanks for sharing this wonderful album. We watched preparations for the America's Cup in San Diego many years ago and it was a thrill. I am a fan of this beautiful sport. Carole

This is a wonderful album Barbara. I enjoyed looking at all the scenes of the boats and water, the modern event centre, the views from your hotel, the sunrise and sunset, and the monestary. I am sure you enjoyed yourself there. Looks so beautiful. Thank you also for your very kind comments in my latest stationery album. I appreciate it. warm hugs and love to you, Barbara

What an interesting, fascinating experience - from a totally different, even unreal world for most of us "ordinary citizens"! Excellent report: we can better imagine now what's going on before, during, after the races. And of course the Swiss spectators are quite a bit proud... - Thank you for this special album! MaPa
