Mental Mosaic: Even Home is a Travel Destination
My name is Tui Snider. I'm a travel writer and photographer whose blog describes fun things to see and do in Texas and beyond. Here, you will get the personal side of my travels, with lots of photos, too.
I also write for Discovering Dallas - Fort Worth, a site full of tips for fun things to see and do in north Texas.

Comments are welcome. I would love to hear from you!
I love that photo. I think I would find the ocean endlessly fascinating and dynamic. I base that on the fact that in an airplane above the clouds I find the clouds endlessly fascinating and dynamic. I hope you will be posting some of your photos. I enjoy your site and your photos.
I am the same way about clouds on the plane! Clouds, in general. I will, indeed, be posting more pix. As you pointed out before, I need to revive my Flickr account. Gonna head over to your blog now and see what’s up with you! :) ~Tui
So NOT fair! You’re supposed to invite one Mr. Tracey Buh-GOK along on these types of trips! I WANT ALL THE PICS!!! :) LOVE YOU! Who is Tex? :)
OK, Mr. T. Buh-gok! It would be a lot of fun to cruise with you, I must say. :) I will be posting more pix! Love back atcha, my dear. :)
Wow, that was quite a trip. Very nostalgic, pre-WWII. How long did the trans-Atlantic portion take?
It was super fun! I have a notebook full of notes that I haven’t fully digested yet. It took a week to cross the Atlantic. I worried that the days at sea would get boring, but they just flew by! I’ll be posting more about it, that’s for sure! ~Tui
So glad there were mostly smooth seas for you!
Seas as far as the eye can see…and the clouds reflecting in them, gorgeous shot.
I should have asked someone how far we were seeing. The sea stretched all the way to the horizon and I have no idea how many miles I was seeing. The clouds were often much lower than I expected. It was beautiful and smelled great, too. ~Tui
Great photo Tui. Looks like a great trip.
It was, Joe. Hey, I’m gonna go check out your 7 Fishes Feast… Buon Natale! :) ~Tui
Love that photo, you almost expect the water to nudge the clouds so they kind of bounce up and down!
Glad you had a good time!
Everything seemed so heightened and alive out there… if the sea had suddenly nudged the clouds it would have made sense somehow! :) ~Tui
