Where did you travel to in 2012?

People always ask me where was my favorite place that I traveled to, it is almost impossible to answer. Having seen many parts of the world I do have some favorites but let's save that for another day. In 2012 I had the privilege to go to Mexico City, Istanbul (2nd time) and Easter Island (most people do not even know where Easter Island is...Here is a map to see...over 2,000 miles off of the coast of Chile).

I am going to attach some links to my flickr account for those 3 trips...

Finally finished posting my Photos on Flickr from Mexico City, Easter Island and Istanbul...

Having done a tremendous amount of traveling over the past couple of months I finally found the time to post my Photos on www.Flickr.com. 
As many of you know, if you take a 1,000 photos at least each trip it takes some time to fix and get your photos done for others to look at. 

Here are the last 3 trips...
