Many of the houses we encountered appeared to be empty.

An onshore hike is a great way to work up an appetite.

A close-up, high-angle shot looking into the open drawers of a bright green mechanic's toolbox filled with tools. The shallow top drawer is in sharp focus, neatly organizing a socket wrench ratchet, long chrome extension bars, and a row of round sockets. The drawer below it is slightly out of focus, revealing open-end wrenches, hex keys, and additional smaller sockets nestled in black foam tray inserts.

Life Aboard: Carrying Cost

A vintage, low-angle historical photograph of a military Patrol Boat River (PBR) cruising through choppy river water. The dark, camouflage-painted combat vessel features a rounded black hull with a red bottom, kicking up a white water spray from its hull. Soldiers wearing military helmets and gear are visible on board, with a crewman stationed at the helm beneath a black canvas canopy structure equipped with antennas and a radar unit. An American flag flies prominently from the stern, and a machine gun mount is positioned at the back of the vessel under an overcast sky.

Still in Service

A scenic, eye-level perspective looking down a busy historic canal waterway in Amsterdam. Long, traditional houseboats line both sides of the canal banks, some featuring lush container gardens and potted plants on their roofs. The water reflects the cloudy sky above. Dense rows of vibrant green trees frame the canal, partially shading cobblestone streets, brick townhomes, parked bicycles, and a cafe terrace on the right. In the distance, a low arched bridge spans across the water under an overcast, dramatic sky.

Country of Close Encounters

A close-up, high-angle view of the bow of a luxury motor yacht moored on calm water. The bow features highly polished, varnished mahogany wood decking with a stainless steel bow rail, a prominent chrome anchor mounted at the stem, and two braided blue dock lines stretching diagonally across the frame.

Eat. Cruise. Repeat.
