Where is That Glamour?! :)

Ok well, it wasn't that bad, actually it wasn't bad at all! I almost missed my plane on purpose and got ''lost''in the middle of LA. :) I didn't really see much of ''Golden Era Glamour'' that I was looking for (it looks like it was on the screen only or I've just been to the ''wrong'' places :) Then-again, there is no wrong place only the wrong mood!). Anyhow, California is definitely worth seeing, it seems like the happiest place to live and the nature is just amazing so this post will be bit different then the previous ones.
Wildlife at La Jolla by The Sea
La Jolla Cove - Beautiful, but the smell from the pelicans or seals is pungent and unbarable. Years ago, before the seals and sea lions took over, this was a wonderful place to swim peacefully and snorkel. Still unique place, now-days you can actually go into the water swim with the seals...
Joshua Tree National Park
The iconic Joshua tree, the namesake of the California park, is a member
of the lily family. Legend says that Mormon travelers named the tree
after the biblical figure of Joshua.

17th Century Gardens
17th September 2013. Italy - Lago Maggiore - Isola Madre - Isola Pescatori- Isola Bella
Places
that completed my opinion about Italy, Italian heritage, Italian
culture. I've seen Verona, Venice, Taormina, Agrigento, Rimini, Trieste
but what is hidden in this small place called Stresa, made me love this country even more.
Thanks
to Ana & Nicola, my dearest sister and brother-in-low, we spent a
day on this magical islands, part of the Borromean archipelago and home
to an
exotic garden of plants, birds and flowers - and this is how I imagine
Paradise. Only
an hour drive from Ascona, (where we were based) there is a place that
manage to impress me after all London's stunning Palaces, Luxury Hotels
buildings, private houses with extraordinary architecture.
Well... as the action speaks louder then words I'll rather share some photos :) :

1st Stop: Isola Madre
The largest island of the Isole Borromee archipelago. The island is occupied by a number of buildings and architectural structures and is especially well known for its gardens.

2nd Stop: Island of the Fishermen (Isola dei Pescatori)
A narrow street running along its spine is joined by cobbled alleys to the promenade that encircles the island. While the traditional occupation of fishing still exists—local restaurants providing a ready market for the fish.
