Wordless Wednesday Church of the Saviour on the Spilled Blood.

The Church of the Saviour on the Spilled Blood was built on the place where the Romanov family was assassinated. More information can be found here. 

The photos are not good quality because we couldn't use a flash.









This door and much of the interior is made up of millions of tiny mosaic tiles.

This is the Russalka Memorial to those who lost their lives in the Gulf of Finland in 1902 on the Russian naval vessel of that name.

Wordless Wednesday - Lanzarote.


 

We had been to Lanzarote before so decided to take a taxi of the Southern half of the island.

We told the cab driver we had been to the volcano on a previous trip where you transfer to a coach so didn't want to go there this time.

I don't think we made a good choice though because apart from visiting an old picturesque village, looking at all the lava rock became a bit tedious. At least we know not to do that if we go there again.
