Hi Grandpa,

I loved looking at your cruise pictures. They bring back fun memories. I really like all the Puerto Vallarta pictures and of course all our birthday pictures!

Love you.

Finally got around to viewing your Birthday Cruise pictures and they captured a very special family time so well and are beautiful of both people and scenes. A very happy birthday to you Bernie and may your photography continue to delight us all for years to come...with love,

I think you have captured quite an eclectic grouping, so many incredible colors and subjects. A great gallery that will always bring very fond memories!!

Enjoyed looking at these for several reasons Bernie, first because we’ve been trying to decide if we want to go on a cruise and these really showed us what it’s like. It looks pretty fun.



Also, I was interested in seeing those large rocks, or “Monoliths” as I call them. I’ll have to photograph those sometime.

Thanks for sharing Bernie, lovely images!
