Paddled out to the volcanic Vila Franca islet off São Miguel, Azores. Sea caves, red crabs, snorkeling, & sunshine. Waves were no joke, but the guides were amazing. careyontravels.com/kayak-vila-f... #Travel #Portugal #Traveladdicts #TopTravelPics #Travelblogshare #Kayak

A6: I find the contrast between countries quite interesting. Germany owns their past and doesn't try to hide it. In Portugal, there are many Jewish quarters, where the Jews were expelled in 1497. While this is a long time ago, it is not often highlighted. #TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A4: I've visited Berlin's memorial numerous times & the Jewish Museum there, as well as smaller memorials such as the one in Malchow (near the concentration camp). It is incredibly difficult, which has made me hesitate to visit the larger camps. #TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A2: We explored the USS Arizona memorial near Phoenix earlier in the year, worth a visit if you're in the area. Visiting the WWII Museum in New Orleans sounds quite interesting. #TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A1: I’m Sonia from Carey On Travels. I'm fascinated by the people & events that caused the war (and lessons we can learn from this), the resistance during the war, and places that were selectively spared from bombings during the war. #TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

#Oregon is #waterfall central. Just outside #Portland you’ll find icons like #MultnomahFalls but also hidden gems like Bridal Veil. Spring’s the perfect time to explore, they’re flowing strong, everything’s green, it’s a great excuse to get outside. #WaterfallWednesday #EastCoastKin #TravelAddicts
