Back in Iceland for the second time in a few years. Happened to be there on what is known as Menninger Nott (Culture Night) and the city was full tilt with everyone out and about. Headed out into the Southern loop toward Vic and back around to Thingvallir.

Back in Las Vegas for a business trip. The Sphere outside my hotel room every morning.

NICE TRIP DOWN TO PUNTA CANA FOR A FEW DAYS FOR SOME BEACH AND SUN TIME.

QUICK BUSINESS TRIP TO MIAMI. A LITTLE BIT OF LOCAL FLAVOR.

VISITING A CUSTOMER IN PALM BEACH GARDENS. COUPLE OF SHOTS FROM MOVING AROUND TOWN.

For the flight home decided to wrap up the trip in Milan and get a taste of some Milanese, Risotto, and Ossobuco :-)

We decided to take a fast visit to Venice. I have been here since around 2000 so it was interesting to go back and see it. Moody as always.

Just a few miles off the main path is San Gimignano, a nearly perfectly preserved Tuscan town up in the hills a bit with great views off the countryside.

Took a day trip down to Siena, a place I haven’t been back to in over 20 years. Still has it going on as a gem of the Tuscan area.

After a few days in Rome we headed up into Tuscany for 3 nights in Firenze to see some friends and a couple of legit meals in the city. It’s a great time of the year to be in Firenze.

Back in Italy with my family this time and starting in Rome because it’s alway nice to start in Rome.

Hadn’t planned on going to Bari but heard Bari Vecchia is good so decided to swing by on the way even further South into Puglia.

Decided to drive down from Firenze to Puglia and made the first stop Altamura.

Back in Firenze for a short 2 days visit with friends. Here’s a couple of shots from the streets.

Back in Las Vegas for a company sales kick off for a few days. Vegas is the strangest city in the United States bar none.

Was in Miami for a business trip with a free night. Happened to be near the Trump rally so decided to drive over and check it out in person.

Spent a few days in Miami on a business trip. I like trips into Miami for the great weather, sea air, and visits to the little window at Versailles for the cortadito and pastel de guava.

Back in Rome for 24 hours. Rome is the city in Europe I have the closest connection to and have been here countless times. Took the days to walk the city and eat hardcore Roman food before flying back to the USA.

Was back in Firenze for a few days to see some friends and pick up some Italian Olive Oil. Firenze is always a great way to spend a few days just for the food and walking the city streets.

While in Japan took the Shinkansen from Tokyo over to Kyoto for a 3 day visit. Kyoto feels more traditional (and touristy) than Tokyo and was a very interesting place to spend some time. Very well put together.
