Just Checking In......

Were any of you worried? I didn't realize it, but it has already been eleven days since my last post. The time just flew right by, and I have been somewhat consumed by work and gearing up for my trip to South East Asia. I have a long weekend coming up though, and should find some time to watch a movie or two. I have some in the queue. But, until then, I found some neat things online I thought  I would share, a couple from Foreign Policy Magazine:

A photo essay from Tehran, Iran. I know no one is clamoring to go there (there are actually supposed to be some neat things in Iran) but it is still another place, and thus good enough for FC:

A huge photo essay containing images from the World's failed states/most dangerous places. There are over 50 images, but this gives a good look at some places that probably would fall low on our travel lists, interesting stuff though:

And from the always reliable New York Times, an article and slideshow about Quebec City, one of my more recent travel destinations. Great place, give this stuff a gander:
