Recently during routine archaeological computer excavation not far from Eilat in Negev desert was found historical item, which proves existence of the Jewish Exodus from Egypt.   Here is a image of antic Google Satellite Map of Exodus led by Moses.

Rock Creek on Kankakee River.

Rock Creek is a tributary of the Kankakee River. It empties into the Kankakee River in Kankakee River State Park which is just west of the city of Kankakee. It starts in higher land and then drops into the Kankakee River Valley. Because of this, the river has cut through the rock, forming a gorge. The majority of this gorge is in the state park. There is also a trail in Kankakee River State Park that follows Rock Creek.

(info from Wikipedia).

Rock Creek is a true representation of the beauty  of the area where this small creek is going thought. Rocky banks of this small creek and and shallow fast moving streams of water give us image of mountain Creeks somewhere in Swiss Alps. The air is full of Oxygen from the trees of the forest where Rock Creek is going through. It is a beginning of November and weather is slightly chilly, however it really sunny and warm sun rays going through thick branches of trees reflect in a weaves of fast moving water in a creek, making resemblance to impressionist painting uncanny.

By being the true nature lover and outdoorsy enthusiast Aaron could not miss these beauties of nature, gathered members of his immediate family located near by and went to the forested bank of Rock Creek to enjoy the last days of the leaving autumn.

Aaron's First Halloween

Yesterday was first time for Aaron to do the Trick or Treating.  We pick a nice place to do that - Northbrook Court. Godiva store to be exact.  It was a night of fun (hundreds of trips on all elevators and escalators in a mall)  and of course candy, candy and candy. After mall Aaron visited his grand parents to get more candies.

Check out the cool movie from that day.
Enjoy!!!!!! The Video is finally  Here. URA!!!!!




Sorry for Delay, movie will be uploaded latter. Enjoy the picture!!!

Kankakee River in a late October.

Last week Aaron traveled to Bourbonnias, Illinois to visit his grand parents. In a waking distance from their home is a nice park with a Kankakiee river going through. It is a very scenic place and it hard to believe that only 35 miles away ( North-East  to be exact) is a "hosel and busel" of Chicago. This  mobile picture does not give the place a justus, but take a look anyway.

Greenland - the land up North.

On September 14 we were flying back from Europe by Crossing Atlantic, I have done it several times for last 10 years. And most of the times pilot will let you know then you are flying over Greenland. So I can say, I sow Greenland from high above ( 33 thousand feet or 10.000 meters to be exact) This time I had a camera with me and to make it memorable I got couple of pictures of the land probably most of us never going to visit. Here is a most southern tip of the biggest island in a world located north of N60 parallel.

Enjoy!

ABBAland and IKIAville is a same country, isn't it?

A stereotype or "stereotypes" is a commonly held public belief about specific social groups or types of individuals. Stereotypes are standardized and simplified conceptions of groups based on some prior assumptions.




The term stereotype (στερεότυπος) derives from the Greek words στερεός (stereos), "firm, solid" and τύπος (typos), "impression", hence "solid impression".



Recently I found several maps which represent these "solid impressions" toward the countries and areas in Europe in a minds of Americans, British, French, Germans and Italians. Take under consideration, assuming that the post and maps are scientifically correct is a stereotyping some sort.
