Random stop at a Gaudi-esque church. Bit odd, but view is nice & the olds hadn't seen this before, so that's a bonus.
Few more random snaps wondering around Funchal. Gotta say, while nice to walk around, not the most photogenic place.
Today's ride: Little pootle in the hills above Lake Maggiore. Always beautiful... and even the weather came good!
Sanctuary of the Nativity of Mary, Vicoforte. Very ornate inside. Beautiful square with archways opposite. Love it!
Short wonder around Vitoria-Gasteiz. A very pleasant place - especially on this beautiful spring day.
Today's ride: random cruise exploring new parts of the Pyrenean foothills. Great day to ride like a tourist
Adios Donostia! Until the next time...
Little wonder around Oundle. Wouldn't be England if it wasn't raining though Very pretty place all the same.
Few random shots from the road today. Sadly these don't do justice to the beautiful drive through the Jura
Random shot from the road, just outside village of Quintaine. Am a sucker for rolling vineyards & a little church.
Montpezat-de-Quercy. Another lovely little medieval village, with commanding views over the surrounding countryside.
Short walk in Bruniquel. Love off-season tourism, have this beautiful medieval village practically all to ourselves!
Easy morning ride through vineyards & villages of southern Bourgogne. Impressive monastery in Rimont. Lovely area.
Unbelievable Italian/Swiss ride. Lakes, spectacular Maggia Valley & super technical descent to the finish! Love it!
Out of luck with weather so au revoir Haute-Savoie! Crossing Col des Aravis. Hope Pratiwi is praying for some sun!
Today's dawn ride: river Rhone, sheep, canals, Lac du Bourget, a tiny chapel, col du Chat & Jongieux vinyards. Phew!
Seems 2hr+ dawn ride not enough today so took 100s of steps up to tiny church perched atop volcanic rock. Nice view!
Cruising the Prades Mountains. Awesome quiet roads, views from every one. More kays & climbing than Tourmalet loop!
Cliff-edge walk around Siurana. Wow! Reminiscent of Blue Mountains. You know, except for the 900 year old church!
Vilaplana church. Great ride from the Med through villages like this, forests & climbs. Perfect weather. Love it!
Churches everywhere in Lisbon. Feels like on every corner! A couple of the more ornate ones we wondered into today.
Quick look around a very quiet Saint-Felix-Lauragais. Nice view from chateau but wow - this landscape looks very dry!
Today's ride: lovely sunny loop from Chiemsee round by Reit im Winkl & return. Felt flat as a pancake!
Morning tootle on the bike. Austrian valleys, lakes, churches & castles under brilliant blue skies. Beautiful stuff.
Stunning scenery & brutal gradients. Passes Falzarego, Valparola, Falzarego - again - & Giau. Utter perfection.
Grey day in the Dolomites so little stroll in the village (La Villa) & stumbled across this pretty little church.
Morning wonder around San Sebastian. Overcast & quiet, but still lovely. Now... which of these tapas bars is open?
Might be a bit nippy today, but makes for some crazy clouds up in the high stuff. Love the ever changing views here.
Random villages lucky enough to get some late afternoon sun... not that there's much warmth to it this time of year.
I often ride by this little church but today just couldn't help but stop to take a shot to share the view. Fabulous!
Passing the church at Niembro cove & thought it pretty enough for a picture. The joys of random travel
Appears there aren't many stone churches in Norway, but is one here in Luster. Very quirky! Dates from around 1200AD.
Passing through Lom so quick look at the stave church. Origins in 12th century, but rebuilt in the 17th apparently.
Short walk up the 'waterfall steps' & to the little church in Geiranger. Nice view, but it's better from higher up
Random little church we passed on the drive today. Bit of restoration going on so we couldn't go in though.
A very quick, grey & chilly stroll in Ypres before dinner.
The church of St Anne (or Anna?) in Brugge. Just passing by on our walk into the centre of town but still impressive.
Arriving at Mertloch in the evening sunshine, spotted a church off in the distance. Just random German countryside.
L'église Saint-Laurent in Aas. Get's you closer to god?
Trinità dei Monti, top of the Spanish Steps: one of the more modest religious places we've seen here.
In Sankt Peter, but sadly we missed the monastery tour so had to be content with a look at the little church.
Part way up the cliff above Hallstatt we find the church Maria Ascension. With the world's most scenic graveyard?
Church of Saint-Séverin. Thought the garish (70s) windows & columns (supposedly in the form of palms) a bit unusual.
